There are two things that caught my attention for this:
1) Tokudaya art that isn't the normal designs. I know that they have a few designs hat many people enjoy using, so seeing different character designs being used makes me happy.

2) The use of a personality quiz. Now, I may be wrong... but I don't think I have been that used in any other games from here. I want to see how this is going to be used, what the base personalities from it will be like, and overall just what kind of impact having a heroine with three possible personalities may have on the story and character interactions.

Looking forward to seeing where this one goes now.

@Blane Doyle: One, it affects who you're most compatible with, but it doesn't mean just because you're more compatible with this guy that you won't be able to get that other guy's ending. Also based on your personality quiz results, the options you are given in menus will change. Like for example if you were to get the classic angelic heroine, then your options would obviously not be as selfish as the options you'd get in a menu if you were a badass heroine. Overall it changes your actions/events, which is why I'm considering adding more endings/ 1 more per each personality so that'd be three more endings to the original 7? But that means I'd have to add more CGs to go along with the storylines. I don't know yet, it's up to how long all the programming will take me! I included a preview of the quiz at the end.

& if anyone's wondering what my art looks like here's something I TRIED to draw quickly just now -.-
(Click)

I'll post a sample CG fully colored/shaded soon when I get the chance! I guess I'll include all this in the next post update;

Hm... If we can change Ichigo's personality by are choices, then I believe there should be more options in the questions for us to choose.

How about...
"Are you the type of person to voice out their opinion no matter what?"
['Yes'] points into being a Stuck-up type (Tsudere)
['No'] points into being a Shy type
['Depends'] points being a Normal type
['No Opinion'] points being a Rebellious type
['...'] Points being a Silent type
[Believe it!] points being a Snarky/Outgoing type

Though, it's all based on what personality type's that will be inserted in the game. A Rebellious gal would be nice to have (Wink, wink)

I also think you do pretty good drawings, ever thought of just re-drawing the characters in your style?
That'll be pretty cool to see. 8)

I really like that idea! It sounds like a lot of work but when you pull it off it will be a very nice addition. It also helps replay value because by changing you're heroine's personality you can have different interactions with the characters ^^

@ShippoK: I like your idea! Can I use it? I was actually thinking of expanding the personality types even further in the quiz, but that would mean so much more programming for me >___<
Still, adding more personality types would be awesome. I'd need more ideas/suggestions for their scenarios and events though. I'll wait until I finish the first three personality types & their storylines/endings until I decide to add any more others. I think the badass heroine falls into the rebellious category by the way (; And thankyou! I just wanted to have good art quality in the game so that's why I hesitated on using my own u.u
I might draw my own characters in the future if I decide to do another VN, it'd be really fun.

@Hazel-Bun: That's exactly what I was aiming for! I wanted to give the player a chance to be able to interact differently with every character based on Ichigo's personality, give each player more freedom with their choices/decisions in the game. It will be a lot of work unfortunately, but I'll probably end up doing it anyways :D

I like what you've done so far with the game and the art is cute. I'm also looking forward to just what kind of responses the personalities will have depending on what boy the main character is speaking to....As a matter of fact, I'll be really looking forward to how the main character will deal with the best friend if Ichigo has a badass personality lol

No problem, I always find myself suggestion cool ideas for Otome's.
It's Quite strange sense I'm not a big fan of Otome games at all, yet I don't hesitate to give out neat ideas to people who are making them. :wink:

It's all up to you, really. I say: "any art is good art, as long as you put a lot of your effort into the piece."
Don't hesitate about the quality so much.
Remember, having something look good 'doesn't always' mean it'll be good.

@Roseus Mirabili @ShippoK @inhalence @Devil's Truth: Thanks guys for the wonderful feedback \(*T▽T*)/

@Pyun~: It's non-commericial/free & yes that would be amazing, I'll be posting a thread about it soon if you're still interested to check it out!

@TheOneTwo: Yeah of course! I'll try to make it spoiler free since there'll be a few more different endings to each guy now due to the new personality types added.

@blahblah0625: Thanks that would be great! I'll post the link in the "updates" once I do~

mini update
Also you'll be able to receive texts from the guys/ send them one according to what the options will let you text him, I finished programming it yesterday xD

I'll post a preview of your "cellphone" during gameplay soon :)

The screenshot of Daichi, omg LOL.
Ichigo is so entitled to be able to use you as a pillow, haha.

Anyways, I'm looking forward to this! Good luck~
