Writing- 100%
Script- 98%
Backgrounds- 100%
Sprites- 85%

Update 5/12/13

Almost finished with Sora's sprites, then one more sprite to finish! c:

Progress:
Main Menu Picture- 10%
Writing- 100%
Script- 98%
Backgrounds- 100%
Sprites- 70%

Update 5/7/13

Finished Erin’s sprites, starting on April’s.

I decided that I’m just going to shorten it to just one story. Also most likely going to Change the title of the VN as well.
Still debating about CGs, but they…aren’t really NEEDED right now.
Haha, so I’ve finished writing and scripting the story.

Progress:
Main Menu Picture- 0%
Writing- 100%
Script- 75%
Backgrounds- 100%
Sprites- 25%

Yes, I know I work fast. But then again, it might be pretty short.
Hey, it IS my first time making a VN after all.
Since I'm almost finished, I might as well add that I need a proofreader. I'm already enough of a grammar freak, but I figure that I'd have someone else check it out just in case.
Also, how do you add a picture on the main menu? I just want to be safe in doing to.
-End update.





I'm actually going to make a Visual Novel!

This one, however, will be about one of my Misery High characters.

Title: Clarity
Description: Erin Cruxley decided to return home from her boarding school one weekend. What's waiting for her when she gets there however, is something, or someone, that she was NOT expecting to see.


Characters: (To know more about them, go here.)

Erin Xandra Cruxley
Age 15
Personality: Is very blunt when you first meet her. As she gets to know you, she softens up a little bit and she starts to be able to open up a little more. She is deeply scarred by her past, so she doesn’t allow people to get too close to her because she has a fear of people hurting her. She's also sarcastic about 50% of the time.
-Her hair is choppy because when she was 12, she was set on fire and its growing back.
-She has more than 25 scars on her body.
-Has heterochromia
-Best/good friends with April and Sora, set them up.

Sora Amano
Age 15
Personality: Sora is shy and quiet when you first meet him, but after that he tends to be a real sweetheart. He likes listen to others and try to help them out. Very determined and willing to work hard for the goals he's set. He's distant and it takes a while for him to beablt to trust others.
-Ashlynn Amano's younger brother.
-Is dating April Evans

April Evans
Age 14
Personality: April is bubbly and she loves to help others the best that she can, which is sometimes bad because they may end up using her, she’s a sweetheart and some associate her with bright, pink and yellow type colors and sweets, but sometimes April seems like she has a spilt personality…
-Matt Evans' younger sister.
-Is dating Sora Amano.
-Slightly bi-polar.

Trevor Williams
Age: ???
-It's been almost three years since Erin has seen him. Was with her while they were stuck with t he two human traffickers.

Update 4/6/13

Okay, so last night I stayed up until like, 3 in the morning sketching out April, Sora and Erin’s sprites and I finished the sketches after I got some sleep. I’ll work on the rest before I finish them and add them to the post.

I’ve also decided that I’ll have three short stories in the VN. Although, I think that at this point it might be more linear since there won’t be any choices in the VN.

I’ve also finished some background, but I still need some.

With CGs, I WILL need help, that’s guarantee.

I’m also halfway finished with writing the first short story, which is saying something xD Ima firecracker at this right now!

More updates to come.

If you still need a proofreader, I don't mind helping out. Overall this looks like it will be a neat, short game.

Wow, that's... fast. Haha.
Umm, but I have a question... why did you say VN/KN? Will it have choices?
And with those stats, I think... this will probably be released soon. ^^
Still, good luck on your first VN!

Haha, well when I get my mind set on something, I tend to work hard until it's done! :3
It'll probably be closer to a KN since there won't be any choices in it.
At the rate I'm going, it will most likely be finished next week.
