2 and 3. For me, it's a bit like asking "do you like amazingness? do you find amazingness interesting?" OF COURSE, I do! I'm very intrigued.
4. What happened to Kami and Anna? Ahahaha, just kidding. For real this time: is there a "best" ending or do you want to go for something more ambiguous?
5. I can't say for sure without also seeing the backgrounds, but I trust you'll make it work beautifully. After all, YiN and The Iron Heart Witch both had great art and great uses of that art. Your visual thinking is very good.

Hello again^^,
Thank you so much for your kind replies ♥ You first the 2nd/3rd make me smile and giglle like a little girl^^
About Nr 4:
You'll find out^^ <= speaking of ambiguity
And I don't know if there will be a "best" ending yet. It depends on how the story evolves while writing it^^ In the end I wand the ending to fit the story and the decisions.
About nr 5 I am currently wrking on one. But since I can only do this on the weekend right now, it will take it time the show you guyse more art. But I'll try ma very best^^

Xmas is over. I hope you had nice holidays ^^
I'm back at home, so let's keep on working on C•S a bit^^

Since I have to buy a new pc for the backgrounds, I'll continue with some chracter sheets, starting with: Henka Hagetaka.

Image

Henka is probable the character with the most redesigns. Why? Well, The story changed and so did her personality. First, C•S was more like a ... wait for it ... comedy. No, I'm not kidding XD.
The first face sketch was done in 2012 for this older concept. In 2014 I did the second sketch but in did not fit Taka's and Fukuro's style so I did the third one. In the 4th picture she has become a bit elder. First, she and Taka were at the same age but now she's more like 22 years old, I guess. I hate drawing those kind of shoes btw... so if anyone like to help me out with this ... haha... well.
When I'm done I'll show your the finished version.^^

@Rinima: Thank you so much^^.

-----------------

And some more wip charac sheets. Shira is pretty tall Oo
Poor Fukuro-chan: She's pretty small compared to the others.^^ But therefore she will probably get lots of clothes XD
I'm using thicker outlines for this projekt. Don't know why, but I like it more that way ^^".
(Hope you like it, too)

Mystery!! I wonder why I haven't found this thread earlier... I guess I'll answer the questions to tell you my opinions.

What do you expect from this game after reading this post?
You can't really expect anything plot-wise from this kind of game, right? LOL. But probably I'm looking forward the plot twists and some unbelievable secrets about the tower and the disease.

Do you like the concept idea?
Sure! I can't wait to find the thriller parts.

Does it sound interesting to you?
Duh, of course! If it doesn't I won't post anything here LOL.

When you're done reading, are there any questions which come to your mind? Something you want this game and its story to answer?
The obvious one; who's Mikomi Suzume? But nah, you don't have to answer it--I'll just find it out when the game's finished.

Do you like the art style so far?
Yep, I definitely like it!

By the way, I love the 1st logo design! It looks so cool and mysterious!! Good luck with the project!

She looks like a different character altogether! And it actually looks quite nice. I like both versions, each has their charm.

Hey guys,^^
Long time no word from me. But: Don't worry: I'm on it.
I am currently working on the plot and... damn I've never imagined it would be... that much stuff.

For example: This diagramm shows just a part of the back story of C•S.
But since its really important for the game I have to think about it veryyyyy carfully.

Link to this pic, if you cannot see it: http://mirrowdothack.vnovel.com/meineBi ... kstory.jpg

I actually enjoy building up my stories that way. I can start with the story of one character and then see where the stories of other characters are crossing each other.
It's easier for me to see causes and effects that way, plus I can work better with the timeline.. And it will help me when I put in new branches for decisions^^
(It's like building up several timelines @@. it metaphysic stuff or something like this, you know XD)

Cu, Mirrow^^
