Project Scribble, BxG [fantasy][school life]

[desulishor]

Project Scribble is BxG a.k.a. gal-game currently in development. It's non-profit and will be released when it's ready. At the moment, we're in the middle of writing and gathering art, but we're still recruiting for all positions, so anyone interested should contact me. A background artist is something we'd need urgently.
Dev blog is up: http://desulishorwrites.blogspot.com/

Synopsis: Our protagonist Dan is a shockingly average high school student living in the fictional town of Lein, set somewhere in Europe. But one day he starts getting pulled into all sorts of weird scenarios in broad daylight. He's drawn into a fantasy, a horror scene, A secret agent's story, and a sci-fi adventure... Just what is behind all that?

Game info: Will feature light H but with a focus on story and character development. 4 girls with their individual arcs. Not the actual sprites yes, but these are the concept sketches from our sprite artist.

Joy(17)
Joy's a bit of a dreamer and she loves writing stories and scenarios. She appears quiet at first but actually she's just too shy to say what's on her mind. Recently she has also gained her own spaceship...


Lily(18)
Lily is Joy's big sister, loud and outspoken, she's the kind of a girl who gets along with just about everyone. She takes great care of her little sister and finally, she's a third year student and the captain of the local girl's softball club.
As of late, she's been battling spider monsters in a dream-like fantasy world...(think Dragoons from old final fantasy games)


Juliet(17)
Classmate of the protagonist, and the self-proclaimed princess of the school. She seems a bit solitary at times, but shows a playful attitude for those around her. (In other words, a tsundere!)
When things go off the track, Juliet can't help, but to get pulled into supernatural horror scenarios...


Amy(17)
Another classmate of the protagonist, Amy's loud ,energetic and takes a liking towards all things sweet and cute. At first sight, she might look like the generic girl A, but I don't think that's all there is to her...
Actually protected by an 'organisation', and the protagonist somehow ends up getting hired as her bodyguard...

I'm interested! I can't wait to see those bios and info! Good luck, we need more BxG games here! Got to represent!
(begins to stalk thread)

Wow, sounds interesting! I can't wait to play it.
I "may" be interested in writing for you guys, but I'm not sure if you guys would want such a noob like me writing.

For one reason or other, things have been a bit quiet and slow lately. But let's not mind that, at least I can report that we're still alive, and I've also managed to recruit a 2nd writer to the team.

It's GratuitousMoonspeak, so say something to our fans, Moonspeak-san? (Wait, did we even have fans? oh well, never mind. Things like that aren't really important anyway.)

(I am so behind the times )

Hello, people who stumble upon this thread! I am GratuitousMoonspeak, currently writing Lily's route. I've been kind of busy with school work but fear not, I have managed to set aside some time to actually get some writing done.

Anyway, I hope people are actually interested in this, because it's a fairly interesting premise (IMO). I hope when it's finally done, people will like it :-3

Sounds interesting. World-in-world games are fun. How exactly will the game split off into the arcs? I guess the girl you'll be drawn into the fantasy "world" of the girl that you're pursuing, but, once Dan's drawn into it, does he ever go back to the real world, or is he stuck in the fantasy world until end game? Will there be a point in the game where all of the girls' "worlds" collide?

[desulishor]

Answering that question is a bit of plot spoiler, so read on with your own risk.

]There's a prologue sequence which introduces all four fantasies, and the player's choises decide which fantasy he's drawn into. However, the fantasy is NOT a separated world, but rather an alternate layer of reality, which could potentially overwrite the real world, if left alone. Thus, the plotlines are all about normalizing the reality.

Hm... if you want, you can use spoiler tags to keep those who would rather not see safe.

Anyway, the artwork is nice... as expected of Maltagliati. ^^ The characters seem really interesting.

I have returned and this time we're doing some shameless promotion work!

If Project Scribble was your average harem anime, this is how the mandatory fanservice episode would probably turn out. Each of the girls handles the situation in their own way, and on the sidelines, poor Dan is brooding, saying something along the lines of 'Oi oi, I'm supposed to be the main character here...'

This one here come courtesy of our second artist, http://xxlei-chanxx.deviantart.com/ She will be responsible for a lot of the actual game art too.

As for other stuff, One character arc is more or less finished, and work has begun with two others. If all goes well, Maybe I could aim for a release before summer...
