Re: Chess of Blades [BxB][Mystery][Romance][KICKSTARTER + DE
Hey guys! Just wanted to update -- it doesn't seem like we'll be hitting the KS goal, but we got a lot of valuable discussion and reached a new plan for going ahead with the game.
- Chess of Blades is still being developed! We are having to push the release date back, but it should be completed by Fall 2017 at the latest.
- We’ll be launching another Kickstarter with a much smaller goal (around 5-6k) just to fund our art. That will probably be coming in about a month!
- Art is receiving an overhaul! Backgrounds will be staying the same, but we’ve changed our character style. Feedback is appreciated!

What a pity! But I'm glad you are still going to finish it; I'm sure the game will sell well, since it looks more than fine and you've got a nice fanbase.
Can't wait for the release!

Aw man, sorry about the Kickstarter. :c Good to know you guys are still seeing it through to completion though. Hopefully by the time the second campaign rolls around I'll have some money to pledge.
I'm really digging the new art! I think the colored lineart is more effective, given the mood of the story.

The old sprite seems to match his personality in the demo better to me, but I don't mind the new one! (The fact that most of his hair is shorter and swept off to the side makes the one wavy, dangly part look like a clip-on hair extension to me, though...)

Hey everyone! Thanks very much for your encouragement and comments about the new art! We have some new updates for you in terms of redesigned sprites!
Linnaeus:
Arden:
Franz:
(Note: Franz' neutral expression seen here as opposed to a different expression for the other two, so if he looks a little blank, that's why)
Feedback/comments appreciated! We've opened preorders on our Itch page until we start up the Kickstarter, which we're still planning for next month.

Does this game sound intriguing to you?
________________________________________________
Mystery and suspense are some of my fav genres so yes it does appeal to me
Do you usually play BL games?
________________________________
I dont usually play BL games. For the most part its majority otome GXB with an
occasional BXB or GXG game if I like the art style and the plot interests me.
Which character appeals to you the most?
_________________________________
Fav of all of them would have to be Rivian I can sympathize with his curious nature
I'm also too curious for my own good X'D
Out of the love interests it has to be linnaeus He's handsome, wicked intelligent,he loves cats how could he possibly be bad OwO
plus dat hair, MizuYukiiro fan art, and his pained/worried sprite art sealed him as fav love interest. Why is he so cute when hes sad lol.
General feedback/comments?
____________________________
Rivian would look extra fancy with a third tier in his cravet like Edgeworth has :3
I'm impressed by the new artwork its definitely improved. Rivains gray vest being larger, Ardens cheerful new color palette, thank goodness
Franz no longer has chest ruffles lol. Linnaeus looks extra regal now, I like the turquoise details on his belt and clasps.
