Hello, been a while since I last updated! Development is back in full (well, as full as school and other commitments will allow) on Asterism now that my Yuri Game Jam entry,
The Witch in the Forest, is now finished. So, it's cute art time!
I started drawing a tiny chibi of Kotachi a few days ago just as a break from working on Yuri Jam, and here is one of the results from the unfinished chibi. I might use this as a base for the new character sprites, as every character is going to get a new set of walking sprites.
Update 10/24:
I've updated the original post! There are two main changes I made:
- I've removed Mitra from the character list
- I've deleted the questions for the public script and changed them to questions about the thread/game
A few weeks ago I decided to delete one of the party characters, Mitra, from the game, as he didn't add much to the story, was fleshed out much, and most of his lines could easily be given to other characters. I feel this was a good move, as it makes the cast a bit smaller and more concise, allowing for more time with the existing 4 other party members as well as got rid of essentially dead weight. In deleting him, I'll also be adding a few more character scenes, making it feel more like a visual novel than a word-heavy RPG. I currently have (what I feel to be) too many dungeons, so I'm looking to remove some and replace them with scenes to get to flesh the characters out more.

I also deleted the questions for the public script, as I neglected updating it for a while (leading my personal, actual script to being a lot better due to constant reediting) and I'm finally getting to the last stages of script editing. So, now there are general questions about your thoughts on the game!
