New update! Yaaaaaay! :D

Kanins whipped up the first of our 'Post time skip', and to date my favorite Character. I'm pleased to introduce Fumiko. We won't give too much detail on Fumiko but as happy and carefree as she seems, there's a mystery behind her smile that you can discover and explore as you get to know her.

We've also began making up BGs to use and already have a number of them finished and polished. Here are a couple, courtesy of Badriel:

I agree with above. Those backgrounds are beautiful.

I've always liked slice-of-life, drama stories and plots, so I'll be looking forward to this project!

Officially moved the thread into 'WiP' since things are coming along rather quick! *Fireworks*

I'm glad that the backgrounds are being received so well! We've clocked up 32 backgrounds so far, probably looking at maybe 100 when we have finished. Since you like them, here's another couple of the high school. :)

All credit is due to our fantastic artists. Couldn't get this far without them. Thanks for the compliments, folks.

Hrmmm can't count the chickens until they hatch! It would be fantastic to release this game to the standard of Katawa Shoujo though. Kanin and Badriel are both producing fantastic art, as you can see, so Christo and myself will have to pick up our game on the dev side of things and make something fantastic for you all ;)

Maaaaybe I will... At some point :3 :3 Hehe. BUT! I do have a little cutie of a character (and last of the main girls) scheduled to be up tomorrow so hang around for that one! :)

As promised, I'd like you to meet this little cutie, Hitomi:

Image

Hitomi is a fun, bubbly girl and Akemi's best friend since they were little. At times Hitomi can be a little empty headed but she makes up for it by being loud and boisterous. She is a massive fan of Miyu Takanawa and uses her as a role model, hoping one day to follow in her footsteps.

The art is great. So charming and full of personality! I'd be willing to pay money for this based on the visuals alone.
The story seems simple, but that's not always a bad thing. I have a soft spot for traditional bishoujo games.
I sincerely hope this gets finished! Rooting for you! ^^

I have a soft spot for VNs like this: seem to have a very appealing storyline with a considerable polish.

Very much looking forward to the finished product :) Any idea when that may be? Or when a demo may be released?

We are still a ways from releasing a demo for this I'm afraid. I think we are all perfectionists and wouldn't want to put anything out unless we are 100% happy with it, demos included. Once we have thoroughly gone through everything though I'll whip up a nifty little progress bar so you can keep track on how things are going and when you can expect demo's and updates to come out. There's a lot of things going on in the background but trust me, it'll be worth waiting for! :)

Thanks for showing interest!
