I do too ^^

So, I had more stuff planned for Corey's path but this is taking too long, so I may cut it short. The good news is I have two more half days of school *happydance* Two more exams and I'm done which means I'll have more time :D Except for the fact that I'm now working at a play, about to start a Latin course, and may get a job..xD Anywho, Corey's path should be finished sooon.

Becca: "Why do you like teasing her[Gina] so much?"
Corey: "That's just the type of friendship we have."
Corey: "We're rude, insult each other, and get in fights on a daily basis."
Corey: "But we're best friends."

I don't know why but I just thought that was cute ^^

Thanks ^^ I'm finally done with the tenth grade :DD

Good news is, I'm done with Corey-Becca. Huzzah. And I've written the true ending :D Yes, there is only one true ending but there are four different versions of it for each of the people. But it's basically the same thing.

And I'm still on Corey's path..ugh.. *dies* BUT. I'm almost done with him. Personally, I'm getting tired of Corey xD After his path, it's onto Gina's.

I've decided to make a little demo for Pickles and Strawberries. In this demo, you will get to play as all four in various orders depending on what choices you make which means I have to write about three times as much as I would if it were a straightforward demo. I make everything I do more complicated than they need be..

I'm hoping to have the writing for the demo done by the end of the week while gothic~ichigo works on the sprites.

I'm at 14,000 words and still on Corey's path. It's nearing the end though. I finished Corey-Becca and I'm almost done with Corey-Gina. Then there's some small parts and Corey's true path. So I can say I'm almost done with Corey's path. This is going to be one long-ass game, at least to write. -_-

As a fellow makes-things-more-complicated-than-they-need-to-be sufferer, I know what that's like.

That said, this will end up lots of fun to play, and with an insane amount of replayability. :D

Holy crap!
The character art is so awesome! I super love the clothing designs!
And the story sounds really interesting so I'll be looking forward to this.
Good luck~ :)
I really like Corey's personality by the way, he's like a male version of me. XD

It's frustrating in the creating process but when it's finally finished it's so much better so I put up with it xD

Yaay~ I hope people really do like it ^^ I wasn't sure if people would want to replay it so much though..

I knoow! gothic~ichigo is a great artist. They're so cute :3

Thank you :D

Corey is amazing xD His scenes with Gina make me giggle. But that may also be because I wrote them :3
When I read that, I instantly pictured Corey wearing a little dress o_O
What is this I don't even.

Woah really O_O? :lol:
His personality just clicked with me in an instant. XD
And I don't really wear little dresses, I wear pants most of the time.
Is actually scared of showing off her long legs.

Writing, music, and backgrounds for demo is complete :D Now I'm just waiting on the rest of the sprites.
Statistics for the demo:
Quote:
The game contains 1,688 screens of dialogue.
These screens contain a total of 9,832 words,
for an average of 5.8 words per screen.
The game contains 26 menus.


Why did I make the demo so big? o_O As soon as I get the rest of the sprites I can release the demo. Yaay.

Now that I'm done with that, I suppose I have to go back to writing about Corey again -__-

Wow.. exactly two months without an update o.o

Aight. Good news.. gothic~ichigo finished the sprites :D She did an amazing job <3
So, now I just have to plug them in and add a couple final touches and the demo will be done.

And here is a preview of the sprites for you..

Wanna know how I came up with the idea for this and the name? I came home from school today with a migraine. I was hungry so I went and got a pickle. Then I saw a bowl of strawberries and took one and ate it. I had just finished eating the pickle so I could still taste the pickleyness when I ate the strawberry. It tasted soooo weird o_O And I was just like "Those should not go together! They're like sweet and sour." and somehow I was just "That'd be a cool VN. A really sweet popular girl and a rude loner guy."
AND THUS PICKLES AND STRAWBERRIES WAS BORN.

*_* I am in awe of your amazing ability to get inspiration from such an unexpected source. I'd like to say that genius is spontaneous, but I wish I could come up with something this cool at will. Fo' realz, man. Pickles and Strawberries is pure brilliance :D

I will be stalking watching this game. It has a good concept, and not that many VNs let you explore other character POVs. Plus the characters seem so... alive. I think Gina is going to be my favorite :3
