Aah congrats on finding new artists! The sprites look nice and clean, but the arms seem a bit short...

Do you mean Clyde's arms? I agree, they do look a bit short. Don't worry, these are only sketches, so I'll fix them when I start lining these :)

lol I was gonna tell you sooner but seeing that you've seen the comment yourself, i guess nevermind hahaha... XD

anyways so far, here is the update!
*Story: 80%-
supposedly 100 by the end of august, but oh well XD as much as I want it to get moving I just can't push... its a non-commercial after all. :p
Encoding: 50%
Characters:25%
Sound/Music: 20%
Background: 95% (this can't be 100 as new images may come due to the new scenes we're planning to put up)
Interface:35% (me trying to make it XD but I am noobish so...)

now that finals are done, hell month is finished, i can go full throttle again on this :)
me is currently:
editing the story ("supposed" to be the one by the end of this week; i have someone else also doing the writing so yeah..."supposed")
encoding (indefinite depending on the story)
editing the interface (indefinite)
finding licensed images (can be done within1-2 days)
getting licensed bgm and sfx (can be done within 1-2 days)

do look forward to this!!

Story: 80%
Encoding: 50%
Characters:25%
Sound/Music:90%
Background: 95%
Interface:40%

overall status average: 61.67%

I don't know if I have made mention to this, but there might be bonus features added to the game... which is currently unsure but most probably planned to be executed :D Please do look forward to that!!

The intro is done! And so far, it lasted for an hour.... (tested it with my nanny lol, and surprisingly she liked it despite the fact that it didn't have sprites yet hahahaha but that's a good sign) Just revising the middle part, and the ending for an even more epic story despite the simplicity of the plot.

the images are mostly replaced and licensed, just waiting for the rooftop image provided by our awesome programmer/proofreader Wright1000, and yeah we finally got licensed music as well...(really its ironic as a musician that i can't even compose... but heck I can play but I just can't compose har har.. the irony... I can also draw but I'm just good with animals... refer to my drawings they suck don't they? XD)
it could have been 100 but of course first of all it is not yet encoded (except for the intro part that is currently almost done just needs revising, editing and the like) and the fact that we might add more.

So, probably I can say that this is the biggest update/improvement for the game so far... and will doing much more within this week before I start another semester next week Monday.

Please do look forward to this!!

for more updates just visit:

for future projects, also refer to our site (in case you're free by next year, certainly we would need help on our future projects XD)

So after a long long pause, here is the updates... I haven't much time at my hands at the moment, especially with the in and outs of people within the team, and a job rotations done on top of that, the rate of the progress became SLOWER sadly.

HOWEVER, that doesn't mean that I'll pause anything in regards to game making :)

so, as of now, here are the updates!!

story: 65%
(supposed to be 100, but I added more depth, and made it longer so currently constructing that depth atm XD like I keep on saying, I wanted it to be more awesome despite being free, as I see this game as a walkthrough for future projects)
encoding: 40%
(and guess, what that's just part I... but oh well...it's gonna be 50 soon though, just waiting for the other editor to send me the part I am waiting for to be sent to the programmer)
BgM: 100%
Sfx: 99%
(I might add more if necessary so I'll keep it at that)
bg pics: 99%
(I might add more if necessary as well if needed be)
UI: 70%
( I might tamper with it more XD so I'll keep it at that)
CG: ???
(I don't have any progress report from this part, so, I'll keep it at that)
Characters/Sprites: 50% (3 out of 6)


the current team is:
me: writer, from main to secondary programmer, UI artist
Jace: Out
Wright1000: from proofreader of script/story to proofreader and official programmer (due to drastic mishaps of writers backing out)
DinosaursgoRawr101(I'd rather mention her penname from another site, she's not in this forums): *new*, writer changed to editor, but the position is ???
-Tag: sprite/character artist
miyoyan: used to be UI and CG artist, but I presume that she has dropped us; position is ???/Out
chhn1127: *new* official CG artist

Once all sprites are complete, I'll give you a glimpse of them for you guys to see :D

as of now, that's all for now!

For more up to date, updates, visit us at our website!

Ps. still accepting new team members
and also, the percentage rates in terms of story is kinda confusing isn't it? well, with it becoming more longer as I progress I guess, that explains it. but nonetheless, the current is the most accurate rate of the story. do forgive me for that.

Hahahaha! This made me laugh lots XD I actually expected Tara to be hated XD and it makes me laugh that by just the description/sprite you already hate her XD

Well, I won't tell if she is the cause of all this or not XD All I can say is, the story can be interestingly shocking at all points :))

Anyways, thanks so much!! Hoping that you'd stalk this thread until our final release lols XD

First of all, I would like to say sorry for the delay...

my pc had a problem and had to trash my old hardrive (where all game files are)...which served as a thing that almost ended everything for us....(along with a few members no longer communicating with me)

However, with a loyal member and a new member joining the time, plus the recovered hard drive and files, the game is still on going and will launch the demo soon. :)

updates wiill be soon posted here and on the website a few days (or weeks) from now.

Please do still look forward for it!
