I'd love to beta-read, if you like. I've always enjoyed playing your games, and I'm especially looking forward to this one.
Since, I don't think I've said this yet: Prince Gaston shall be mine.

Since I posted this on my blog I may as well add it here:

(Not final, although the volume difference between the snap and the music is partly because I routinely set my music slider lower than my sound slider, so it was set that way when I recorded it)

Yes, this, I like this. Final or not, it definitely looks interesting and seems simple enough to work well.

First pass at the opening sequence:

This is all being done with ATL so it looks and sounds better in the game than in a fraps'ed video, but this can at least show the idea.

Ahhh the trailer is lovely! *o* It has a good variety of illustrations. The art is simply stunning. I think the trailer can benefit from showcasing one or two backgrounds as well, but this is looking amazing overall. *_*

Ooh, I like what you did visually, but why is the audio quality so low? Is it because of Youtube? o_o

edit: ahaha, whoops my bad for reading the wrong post, never mind and good to know ;D!

Artifact of the way I'm currently recording these, I think? Between recording the audio via fraps and then compressing it in the recording it comes out kinda meh.

I currently have a bad cold and can't hear very well so right now is not the best time to try and sort it out. :) I've generally gotten better results recording video and sound separately and then remixing them, I think.

I bet, I also missed this "This is all being done with ATL so it looks and sounds better in the game than in a fraps'ed video", so that's probably why. My bad, sorry ^^.

The intro was awesome! I can't wait to play this game. The art looks really great too. Definitely going to download the demo once it comes out ^^

That OP video is all kinds of awesome, and I love the MC's design! She kind of reminds of Nausicaa from the Miyazaki film...must be the blue dress and action girl awesomeness. And her expression with Gaston - lol!
