Anyway! Looking forward to it, thanks for making my day brighter!

I know I mentioned that RE: Prince of Nigeria isn’t meant to have any art and is going to be extremely short, simple and ridiculous, but the amazing artist bic has graciously offered to do the art! And so here’re some art assets of the only character main character, Horai Owen (name changeable):

Once again, this is all thanks to chocobikies!

Oh, don't worry, she'll be fine. :D

There is now a bonus epilogue to the game. Beware of extreme mood-whiplashiness, because it's... going to be not-as-comical. :P But the main story is still going to be in the lulz section, fo sho.

Here's a screenshot!

(Just FYI, Horai has a habit of making very strange metaphors...)

are you going to keep the scribbled out 'gmail' section of the email or is that just a placeholder?
I really like the premise of this game and the main character is cute.

Mmm, originally I was really lazy and just wanted to keep the scribbly thing. But since you mentioned it... I guess I'll get off my butt and change it to "zmail" or something. :)

Bonus epilogue now comes with a CG, and a secret character. :P

That has to be the best metaphor I have ever read. XD

The more I see this the more I want to play it.

I'm about to go on a bit of tangent so forgive me, but the plotbunny latched onto my brain:

But wouldn't it be interesting if the player role was switched from the scam-ee to the scammer? So the whole thing becomes how are you going keep people from getting suspicious and bailing before they give you money.

Sorry, just had to put it out there. It'd make an interesting game I'd think.

I'm never very good at guess-timating, but it should be out by the end of February if all goes well, or maybe earlier. :) So stay tuned!

In the original plan, I wanted a "grow-some-brains" route where she becomes a scambaiter or a money-launderer and gets very, very rich. But in the end, it goes against the mood of the game - it will corrode the comedy as quickly as iron in acid. You'll see it soon enough. :)

His father "dieded"?
Totes a real prince.

I also love how there's an ad for the game in the game.
"There’s no shame in pleasure, Mr. Gray. You see, man just wants to be happy, but society wants him to be good. And when he’s good, man is rarely happy, and when he’s happy he is always good."
