Re: Break Chance Memento [BxB] [Sci-Fi Murder Mystery]
Just dropped in to say I'm awed by your backgrounds, Auro. Hear my jaw drop on the floor.
Though you probably get that a lot.
I'd say the last background has more of a sunset light (or dawn). At least, where I live it tends to get that yellow sometimes.

@Arelune, Thank you, your comment made me very happy -^u^-
Another background, I'm not totally happy with it yet. Still need to work on it some more, but probably later. I don't think I'll see the problem if I keep staring at it XD
And I'm not one to add logos to stuff, but it's kinda fun ahaha.

Auro, looking at your backgrounds makes me so happy ;w; I feel inspired to keep working hard too~
Today I read the BCM faq on the Cyanide Tea website and when I got to this part:

I instantly thought, "Is Shuuki uke then?" xD;;; I'm so sorry. I was just wondering if that wording came out latent with BL innuendos on purpose or not... xD (or it could just be my mind in the gutter /whistlesinnocently)So they're break chance mementos because these items give Shuuki (receiver) the chance to get ahead of the antagonist (server), who's currently setting the pace.

Re: Break Chance Memento [BxB] [Sci-Fi Murder Mystery]
Thank you Reikun ^_^ I still feel pretty bad about having to rely so heavily on Samu-kun's photos to get these done quickly OMG I am such a haaaaaaack. I am a failure as an artist. Maybe next time I'll try something different. I really need to study up on different techniques on how to deal with them.
This is another background I did. I'm not sure to what extent the sprite tinting will be, so I'm just kind of messing around with it.

Re: Break Chance Memento [BxB] [Sci-Fi Murder Mystery]
I didn't really mean it that way LOL I just had to explain it like that because "break chance" is a tennis term. Though interestingly enough, Shuuki does tend to bottom. ^^;Reikun wrote:I instantly thought, "Is Shuuki uke then?" xD;;; I'm so sorry.

Well, I'm really looking forward to BCM. It looks great so far. I don't usually buy games but this one I'll probably buy
Good luck on this one ^^
PS : I am a great fan of your art Auro It is beautiful.

@Cinnamoon, Thank you very much ^_^ I'm very happy to hear your comment.
Someone needs to keep me away for the lens flare before this ends badly XD
Again, based on a photo by Samu-kun
This would mostly be for transitional scenes, where the characters are moving between places etc.

Re: Break Chance Memento [BxB] [Sci-Fi Murder Mystery]
I've edited the first post to reflect our current progress and to unveil our project roadmap. According to the roadmap calculations, BCM is about 48% done. However, there's no weighting for the tasks on the list, so Interstate counts something like "maybe add auto/skip indicators" on the same level as "finish writing chapter 5"... I'd say that our game is more in the 50-60% finished range.
We're planning on doing our second round of beta testing (out of three total) in August, so I'm trying to pick up the pace on my end. I've had some serious computer issues and a severe case of writers' block, but I'm finally pushing through both of those problems now and I resumed writing tonight—slowly, but steadily. XD; Auro and I are both determined to get this game out before 2012 is over, even if that means we release the game just before midnight on December 31st. XD Thanks to everyone who's supported us so far! ;_; It's officially been a year since we started BCM as of like 5 days ago... Time really flies.

Re: Break Chance Memento [BxB] [Sci-Fi Murder Mystery]
Background work. I actually did this one from scratch, surprise.
Every time I finish one, I add another one to the list. I've done 13 so far and I have 10 more to go... that I currently know of. May have to add one or two.

Re: Break Chance Memento [BxB] [Sci-Fi Murder Mystery]
Updated the Cyanide Tea blog today~ It's mostly just putting together all the updates from this thread and the art progress thread at the Cyanide Tea forums, though. Also sent out a newsletter today... Here's the bit about beta testing:
We plan on holding our 2nd round of beta testing (out of 3) in August. At that point, the sprites/BGs will be done and the story will include all of Shuuki's half and at least one chapter of Natsume's. The 3rd and final beta test will be the complete game minus whichever CGs aren't done yet, etc. There's no set date for the 3rd beta test yet, but Auro and I are determined to get BCM out by the end of 2012 or die trying, so I'm guessing it'll take place no later than November. If you're interested in being a beta tester for BCM/Cyanide Tea, please contact me, Camille, at feudal@love.com. You will be expected to play through the game multiple times and give detailed feedback, so experience in giving critique or in beta testing games/VNs would be great. (or if you gave us a good response to our surveys for RisAmo, the BCM demo, or The Elevator, that works, too!) Beta testers get a spot in the credits and a free copy of the game, so do let us know if you're interested.

I've been meaning to say this for a long time, but I absolutely love the GUI. It's so neat and so professional-looking! How did you make it? :3

Re: Break Chance Memento [BxB] [Sci-Fi Murder Mystery]
@Cinnamoon, Thank you ^_^
@Veniae, We hired someone to do it for us, Lazcht, and then Camille has edited it
Another background. I've had a couple added to the list, so I still have 9 more to go. By the time I'm finished BCM will have 28 backgrounds.
I'm not sure how far I am from burnout, and I'm hoping to avoid it if I can, but sustaining work for so long is rather tiring.
