Re: A NEAR DAWN ♣ [Thriller x Mystery x Psychological] + MEGAUPDATE
We are starting to put together the UI for this baby! :)
Writing for the Prologue is 100% done, as is the character artwork and most of the BG artwork.

Ren'Py is magic. :)
I've hit some snags putting together the interface today, but it is so rewarding solving the issues and seeing all the pieces slowly coming into place.

"Go to hell, you a-hole!"
-- having to censor the dialogue for all ages for the CNE Gaming Garage this weekend - it's a family friendly place. :P

It was all amazingness! I learned so much doing the CNE Gaming Garage convention and met so many cool, creative, and interesting people - and, of course had lots of people check out my games. Got some really nice feedback all around! :)

HELLO LEON! I came to your thread first, as promised.
Alexa's CG looks great - I wonder what she's so concerned about? And who DID have the pasta?? So many questions, not enough answers.
I can't wait to hear more about the voice actors and the music! I took an A/V class the year before I joined Lemmasoft, and it gave me a whole new appreciation for sound design as a whole, so I love it when devs give it some love.
Has the con already taken place? What was it like? Did you have fun?
EDIT: When you make a post before realizing there was another page you didn't read. -_- Judging by the picture, it looks like you had a blast at the con! And that GUI is looking mighty fine - very smooth, fitting in well with the art style, clear but not distracting.

We haven't seen you in a long while, I hope you were up to something nice.
Thanks! There are indeed many questions about this pasta business, hopefully you can all have the answers soon!
I still have some art and UI to put together for the Prologue, and I'm getting voice recordings in, but the meat and bones of it were running perfectly at the convention. Just needs a tad more skin. :P
Do you know anything about Sound Engineering? My Music guy has been hard to get a hold of lately, I might have to start thinking about looking elsewhere for some SFX support.
Thank you, it was a great experience! It was my first convention ever. I had to learn a lot for it, but I was told that I was quite professional there. And, it was super fun! ;PZelan wrote: ↑Tue Sep 05, 2017 10:01 pmHas the con already taken place? What was it like? Did you have fun?

I know a little about mixing, i.e. making sure the sounds are balanced, the levels are all ok, etc., but I'm not really good at actual composing. Or recording for that matter. I was always best at taking the sound I was given and tweaking it to sound better.LeonDaydreamer wrote: ↑Wed Sep 06, 2017 12:09 pmDo you know anything about Sound Engineering?

Either way, though, I no longer have access to the program that I'm comfortable with. For the class, we used Logic Pro X, which is a $200 program. It might be possible for me to use the audio lab after schools lets out, but I'm not sure if it's restricted to students currently taking the class.

I see, well I'm still prodding my music guy. He's busy with other projects, too. :P

Just came to drop by and tell you: you have done great work here! It is always refreshing to find not-manga style VNs I hope the rest of the journey with A Near Dawn go smoothly!

I'm scrambling to put the Prologue together (which is the free-to-play demo), I'm hoping to have it ready in a few weeks!

Woah, who's Red Guy in the back? I dunno what he's doing, but it can't be good, that's for sure. And two weeks until prologue release? That is awesome to hear!
