Closing Spaces [BxB][Romance][SchooolLife][Drama]

[Sayumi101]

Plot Overview
Ai and Ren -not so voluntarily dubbed the 'love-love' twins have been inseparable since birth. Together all the time, encased in their little all-exclusive bubble. No one entered, no one left, and nothing else mattered. They balanced each other out perfectly.
What emotions Ren lacked on the surface, Ai displayed with no hesitation. What courage Ai felt short of, Ren would supply with a firm hand.
Then along comes Taku, a high school senior who was for some reason repeating the year, taking their closed-off world by storm.
And all of a sudden they’re not the only ones who mattered to one another anymore.

Play as Taku, the happy-go-lucky charmer with a lowkey violent side as he worms his way into Ren's frozen heart.

Questionnaire (Not much of one, but yeah)
1. Tsundere or detached/cold persona? Pick your poison.
2. Would touching on subjects like panic attacks/emotional trauma in a light-hearted game be a turn off?
3. Logo too simple?


Will update the thread (possibly bi-weekly) with character cards, promo art, screenshots and the like. Thanks for taking the time to read and please support us!~

1. Tsundere or detached/cold persona? Pick your poison.
Tsundere all the way. A good tsundere is pretty much my favorite trope.

2. Would touching on subjects like panic attacks/emotional trauma in a light-hearted game be a turn off?
Definitely not. I would say that you should be careful to make sure it's not handled too flippantly since most of the game will be light-hearted, but as long as the subject is treated well it will make the other, more light-hearted parts all the sweeter. c:

3. Logo too simple?
Simple is good! I like the logo.

1. Tsundere or detached/cold persona?

I think detached makes more sense since you described Ren as having a "frozen heart" and not really showing his emotions.


2. Would touching on subjects like panic attacks/emotional trauma in a light-hearted game be a turn off?

Not necessarily. I think it is definitely possible to include serious subjects in otherwise light-hearted works in organic a way that doesn't irrevocably change the tone of the work. Usually it's done through humor.


3. Logo too simple?

Since when is simple a bad thing? The logo seems perfectly fine to me.


I'm also curious to learn how the sister will react to someone trying to woo her brother. Jealousy? Support? One followed by the other? We just don't know.

Thanks for the logo feedback and taking the time to comment, y'all!

@Zelan:
I like me a good tsundere too, but the more I write him, he seems to be veering away from that path so there's that. And will definitely try to touch those topics delicately and hopefully it comes across well.

@High:
I was actually thinking of the 'tsundere' part to kick in once the boys are closer to one another. But at this point, things might end up differently.
The sister is a pretty easy going person but also strangely stubborn when it comes to things she actually like. That doesn't answer anything, though. ^.^

Psst, this project is going to be aiming to make a comeback as IntRenAiMo, during the oh so lively NaNoReNo season!
Bippity Boop, here's some promo art.
