The best of luck! Downloading demo, the arts pretty I want to see this project backed \(^v^)

Oooo... Valhalla told me about this one... Interested to play the demo... I'll download it now =)

As a side note, not enough detective visual novels ever.

Hello,

I worked on the GUI for the game so I thought I'd show some images of what I did =)

Congrats on the demo release! It's definitely cool to see a detective VN in the works.

The character art is great. However, there seems to be a consistency issue that you might want to think about while you're still early in production (if you're not already addressing it). I.e. the little sister is done in a very different art style from Josh and "the girl." The final sprite for the little sister is awesome - great style!!

Good luck with the kickstarter! I'll be looking forward to more updates.

A Bump: This project isn't dead, I'm just quiet. We're currently going through casting for the last voice acting roles, the script is ~80% complete and ~30% edited, CG and BG art are both above 50% complete.

To anyone interested in the new demo, or helping out with voice acting, the details can be found here:

I've updated the front page to include the new art and demo.

I just opened the file to see how things looked, and I got an error? I was able to continue by hitting "ignore" but that might be something you want to check out.
Here's the traceback.

Huh. That doesn't happen on my machine. I'll give it a look-over.
Cheers for that.

Edit: Found it. That's the code that makes the menu change depending on persistent endings. I removed persistent.endings for the demo as it wasn't necessary. Nice catch.

Glad to see this is still being worked on.

Yet another bump: We are running another casting call for the last few roles. Details can be found at:
http://voiceacting.boards.net/thread/13 ... asting-run

As for everything else: Character and CG art is 100% complete, the script is ~95% complete, BG art is ~80% complete, voice acting and composition are underway.

I'm happy to announce that the game is now in beta testing.

Aaaaaaand it's done!

I'm not sure if anyone's still watching this thread, but here's the game:

I hope you're ready to work for it
There's one in there though.
