And it's great he gives you that vibe- my plan is to have the CGs give the feel of those kind of romance novel covers!
I can see it with the latest update and that CG pose, so I'd say your plan is already working.
Just need to let Sophia's hair down and whip her shawl off to expose the heaving, bodice-clad breasts that are obviously hidden beneath, then have Blake follow suit by showing just what the regiment has made of his physique.. and maybe plonk them down on the beach during a stormy night and voila! Bodice-ripping goodness!
But seriously, I prefer the slow-burn, meaningful romances of the Regency tenfold to that, so I'm very very happy to see what we have to look forward to here! I wonder if you know of a VN called 'Regency Love' for iphone/android/etc? If you haven't played it I would 100% recommend (I've played it more times then I can count, it's that good) - gorgeous graphics, characters and story that your VN reminds me of quite a bit (appearance-wise anyway!).
Also, I figured I would answer the questions in your first post too. Not sure if it helps but I figure it can't hurt..
- Do you think this would be something you'd be interested in?
I don't even think I need to answer this question.
- Which love interest is your favorite?
Stanton, hands down! However, I also find Foxley really attractive, though I know he's not an option and that dear Arabella needs love too and frankly I should stop being so thirsty, dammit.
- Do you like the art style?
Very much! I especially love the ladies (Arabella is just gorgeous with her freckles) and as I mentioned above, Stanton and Foxley. Also, Blake looks great in the CG preview you just released, so if that's anything to go by he'll probably grow on me as well.
- Is there anything you'd like to see, or hope for from this?
I would be perfectly happy to simply have a memorable, well-written story (and interesting, fleshed-out characters) to go with your clearly amazing art.
Beyond that (and this is just me putting it out there), I would love to see a more mature love-interest for Sophia too - someone akin to Sense and Sensibility's Colonel Brandon or Emma's Mr Knightley, perhaps? Not a carbon copy of either of them, naturally, but someone to add a more mature element (views, experience, etc) to the existing/planned cast of love-interests. He could be a heart-breaker (who loses his heart to Sophia, but risks losing her when she discovers how he initially played her.. too cliche?); a fortune-seeker (initially drawn to Sophia for dishonorable reasons.. a more shady sort); a friend of Sophia's parents (that watched her grow and fell for her despite himself); a foreigner (New to England? New Money? etc).. or any number of things.
Just a thought though, nothing more.
Also, I have a quick question of my own - what will the rating for this game be (How mature will the romances be)?
As always, best of luck for your continued work on this game (and CtS, too!).
