Hello everyone!
This week's screenshot is from one of the main story scenes we've been working on! We've been doing a lot of MSQ implementation this week, so it should be ready for our beta testers to play through relatively soon.
Hope you enjoy!

Greetings, everyone!
This week's screenshot is to show off one of our new common backgrounds that we'll be adding for the escape minigame! As you can see, it's a tent.
We hope to have a couple of these to match whatever makes sense in the scenario for when Seles has to do some escaping.
Hope you enjoy!

Hi everyone!
This week, we've been working on a lot of balancing stuff. The game is relatively unbalanced as of now, so we're starting to go through and make sure things like prices, experience points, and character stats have a set standard and growth rate.
This screenshot shows the character class stats, which have been adjusted, but plenty of other balancing work has happen...

Hello everyone!
As you may know, we are always happy to increase the variety of enemy battlers in the game, especially ones who can be tied up so nicely like this! ;) Since battles and encounters might begin to feel a bit too repetitive if we kept reusing the same few graphics for each enemy, we hope to be able to include plenty of different ones.
And so, here's a WIP of one o...

Hello everyone!
Welcome back to another screenshot! This week we have a little sneak peak at a map we'll be using for the next chapter (Chapter 9). As you can see, it's a church!
For those who are following the beta, there will be some pretty interesting stuff happening this chapter, so we hope you look forward to it!
Stay healthy! :)

Greetings once again!
This week we have one of those more technical screenshots for you all.
After the last public demo was released, we had many people ask us whether there will be more gagtalk in the game, like there was in Didnapper 1 and Bonds, to which we replied that yes, there will be, but we want to record that near the end of development, and we want to have som...

Hi all! Welcome back!
As you know, the game already has quite a bit of art and we're planning to have quite a bit more. In order to make in-game CGs and struggle minigames more dynamic and less repetitive, it's important to have varying backgrounds. As such, one of our artists has been working on creating a couple new ones for escape scenarios.
Hope you enjoy!

Hello everyone!
For this week's screenshot, we want to show a new update to the map we created for in-game use. While the actual layout is the same, we're using a more sophisticated mapping software to make it look a bit nicer. :)
We hope you like it!

Hello everyone! Welcome back to another screenshot!
This week we have some more battlers we've been working on to show off. Those of you who have played the first game might note that she looks a bit familiar!
Hope you enjoy and are looking forward to the release!

Hello everyone!
This week, we wanted to show some concept art we had done of one of our later-game cities. The idea is to not only use this art to help plan out the city when making the maps, but also to use them as chapter title cards that will display as the player progresses in each chapter.
Stay healthy ^^

Hi everyone!
This week, we have the finished version of the graphic you saw last week, now implemented into the game!
Ken worked on this CG live in the Patreon stream channel on our Discord server, and this is the completed result. If you're one of our $5 tier and up patrons, feel free to stop by next time and have a look at what we're working on!

This was the longest stream yet, and so it was split in two.
Part 1: https://picarto.tv/videopopout/KendrianCreative_2020.05.30.19.05.01_nsfw.flv
Part 2: Apparently Picarto didn't want to record the longer part 2 for some reason. Sorry :(

We'll make another post with a link to the stream itself when the stream starts, and then change it to direct to its raw recording once it's over.

Hi everyone!
This week, Ken felt inspired to draw something! As some of you may know, we're planning on having more general game over CGs in this game and have more of a focus on CGs unlocked through story progression. However, we'll still be sure to include a few pieces of eye candy for when players lose. ;)
Stay healthy!

Hiya!
This week we've mostly been working on preparing things for the upcoming public demo, meaning mostly a ton of minor additions, improvements and fixes. One of those improvements come from one of our programmers who completely re-wrote the faceset system (talking portraits) from scratch to improve its performance and utility, including fixing some long-standing issues testers were exper...

Hi everyone!
As you can see, this week we've been working on implementing a fast travel system, which will allow players to quickly move between various villages and cities. This feature becomes available after a certain point in the story, and we hope it will make it easier to explore and complete sidequests.
Hope you're all staying healthy!
