I wanted to mention a quick suggestion for the recent settings screen here.



I think it would be better to bring the option text closer together; right now it seems like an odd choice to have the player look to one extreme edge of the screen, and then over to the other to see what all the options are. I would at least move the text for Game Display, After Choice, etc. closer to the center. And maybe also move the ones on the left side a bit closer to the center, if you choose.

Maybe you can tone down the saturation of the green screens too. It has more color than the blood right now, and I think it dilutes the shock effect of having blood on the GUI a bit.

It's neat that you're experimenting with the GUI though. I think it'll give a good atmosphere for the game when it's refined.

Thanks for the tip. Helps to get feedback like that ^^ I'll see what I can change (Since this idiot *points to self* likes merging layers a lot)

Oh, quick thing about the demo: The last 2 sprites have not been finished (They torment Katon...silently.) and it's all that's missing for the demo release. I'll make another post when we have the demo ready.

Or I am just being an a-hole and have finished them and I just want to troll everyone........ I wish ;-; Blame my OCD. Btw Satori still thinks I suck.

Updated the first post with newer bios and newer plot summery. Might as well say that the Player's section of The Commodore's Guide is pretty much a biased view and somewhat pointless now. The bios on the first page are more neutral and delve deeper into the character's own personalities.

Opinions?

First post updated with screenshots.

Going through testing the demo ATM, still waiting on Katon as well (been busy on his side of things). If worse comes to worse, I might release the demo wihtout Gabe or Hector's sprites. (Not much of a problem for my EP, bu will prove troublesome for my co-writer's EP)

Can I ask when the demo's out? XD

If you have sketches of Gabe and Hector, you could put them in as "placeholders," rather than just having empty space for where they should be. That is, if worse comes to worse. :)

I have their "neutral" sprites, so there's that.

Sometime in the next week or two?

EDIT: Ok, so the delay for the art now has a very good reason. I swear you're all going to like it when it's done.

It brings me great joy to announce that the demo is now available for downloading! Check the first page for details.

Feedback is greatly appreciated!

EDIT: If you downloaded the demo, replace these files ineside the game directory:Script and Sript2

I loved it ;w; You thought this out so well Hiji. I'm so proud.

So fricken weird seeing my art like this, ahhhhhhh...
Aside from a few flow problems in EP 2 I thought it was really good :'D

Was excited for this game's demo, been watching it. :3

I loved the feeling captured in the writing, music, and the set-up. You really feel the anxiety of being in the game, and how alert you need to be. I also love the thought you put into setting up the Game (I loved the Death Rules, they add a twist to the game)

Just a litttle point of nitpicking... It would've been nice to see the pda screen of the characters' we've already seen I just find it a bit hard to keep track >O< (Although implementing that is tedious, so I understand why you didn't D: )

Surprisingly, I really liked Hector. C: I thought I wouldn't, maybe because of the age ^^;; bias But he was really cool, and I liked his sprite too :> I second Hayzel Very thought out, and I'm looking forward to the full game! ^_^

Like one of the player's death rules is to kill Player X... But then I don't know if I've already saw that player before, if his/her pda's screen as already shown or not...

I kinda ship Hector and Morgan now

*adds another ship to his list*

Oh, and here's some food for though: notice how the GUI is using a lot of video effects, and even the intro states that the Games are shown through video feeds. Now, what do you think that makes you, the reader?
