Yet another background! Will probably be altered again later, but I'm pretty proud of my work <3

Life happened but we're still here! Here's a preview of the sprites our wonderful artist MadameAzure is working on...

Azure started shading Natalia's sprite and she's gorgeous <3

Natalia does have a lovely sprite. ^_^ Kudos to Azure!

For some reason, I imagined her as having blonde hair when looking at the concept art (maybe just the shape of the curls?) but black looks great too. ^_^ I will admit, I'm a sucker for characters with dark hair.

Looks great, you've got me interested! Please finish this, but of course, take your time.

Same tbh! But I feel like dark hair work very well with her character and since a lot of fox characters are redheads, it makes her a bit more striking.

Actually the prologue is almost done, I just need to finish a few backgrounds and Azure to finish a few sprite sketches so Amaury can finish coding it all... And we will release the demo So pretty soon, depending on everyone's schedule.

Introducing two new character designs!

Lucia, the protagonist:


And Marcus, the First Mate!

Those two both have fabulous hair. ^_^ Lucia looks a little less intense than she did in the concept art, though. Is she still going to have a more serious expression?

Lucia is actually more of a joker/trickster, the kind that sasses and snarks at every turn, so being more serious doesn't fit her all that much. The concept arts were drawn before we were set on everyone's characters, so the final product changed a lot

Ahh, I see. ^_^ I do love sassy protagonists, so I'm pretty excited for her dialogue now, heheh.

I'm having one hell of a great time writing her, at least!

That being said, introducing now Angela, the ship's AI!

Wooaaaah, you guys kept Angela a secret for a while!

Do the characters refer to Angela with female pronouns?

Yes, they do. She's programmed to act as a real person and "feel" like one. She's not actually an AI though, because AIs are considered real persons by law, and are only produced by other AIs. They also have synthetic bodies. No commercial AIs are produced because it would be slavery.

She's an InfoSiC, an Infomodule with Simulated Consciousness. And there's a reason why she's called Angela (well, it's actually ANG3L4) but you'll read about that ingame

Ooooh, cool! You guys have so much interesting lore for your world; I know I'll enjoy learning about it.

Added updated art for Lucia, Indrani, Marcus and Xiaodan.
