CGs Lining

I'm trying to do at least 1 cg lining a day. That and balancing my new job. Baby steps!

map!

This took way longer than I thought it would to make but it's a map for exploring areas in C.U.P.I.D, hovering on areas will reveal the places to travel to.

Meeting the sister

It looks like a webtoon but it's actually a in-game CG there's a lot of movement planned into this so hopefully it will work out in-game.

Yes I'm abusing the heck out of Clip Studio Paint's assets

GUI and Notes

Added a Notes system for Cupid, keeps track of the in-game 'missions' and to-dos, story deadline, also shows the inventory and character info.

Surprisingly hard to do in Renpy since I meld them together so I had to figure out how the scrolling system of each part didn't clash in renpy, but I finally got it.

Dating System

I'm alive, and I'm back with a vengeance, sort of. After 2 weeks in the psych ward and a week at home, I actually managed to get a lot of shit done. I made the sprites, the demo script for Cupid is done. And I managed to make some minigames for it. A dating system has been in placed where you can touch the characters and gift and talk to them for reactions, and I even bring back inventory syste...

Reaper/Cupid Update

Had a bad 2 weeks this month. Couldn't draw much because I have a new day job now, and sadly last week I got sick so couldn't work as much as I liked. I updated some sprites for Reapers, since I changed the fashion theme a bit also didn't like how some characters looked. 

Mark Of A Beloved Demo Link

It, is done. Well, kinda, I just realized how bad the resolution is full-screen on a bigger monitor. On my older laptop it didn't show this when fullscreen so I probably will try and update the graphics if people like Mark of A Beloved more than Reapers (which already has a 1920x 1080 resolution setting), but for just a demo and testing this file is fine. I will try to update the graphics soone...

So Close!!

I'm almost done with the Mark of A Beloved's demo. Just need the Info/Notes page and to fix a bug in the male  mc's minigame~ Yooossh.

Cg Preview

Some additional cg for Mark of A beloved's demo. I felt the demo was a bit short so I added an extra scene for the female protag and quite liked the quality improvement after lining with Clip Studio Paint.  Just need to color the skeleton Cg one and I can start play testing with the Cgs and polish the character screen UI and hopefully I'm done ^ ^

CSP is my friend

I've been urged to buy CSp for a while and was gonna wait for it to hopefully be on sale, but in the end caved due to its plethora of free hi-res assets (especially scales) so I'm adapting to CSP and it's pretty great so far, although I'm still adapting to the lining brushes, but that is compensated with auto glow eyes and hair brushes.

Mermaid Time and Map Innovation

I had to settle things to court and such but I was finally able to paint the mermaid, 2 more mermaid scenes to go. I also coded the sound effects, music and added an extra scene for Mark of A beloved. For Reapers, I innovated the map a bit using panoramic vies in Sketch up for backgrounds then added some mobs. Need to test if it works out ok or too heavy for renpy to do in a large amount though...

Looks simple, but inside...

Hey there! I started to work again, after all the bullshittery I faced last month. I had to move back to my parents home in a different city and get all my stuff, but I'm finally settled here. I'm still getting my life together after what happened with my soon to be ex-husband, but I decided I should stop stressing and moping and start doing what I love again. So, I decided to focus on polishin...

Life Update

Hiya.... First off I wanna say this week has been rough

Last weekend I found out my husband had a drunk affair with his friend. So needless to say I'm quite....distraught. Because 1 I told him that I don't approve of a partner who drinks (due to an alcoholic abusive uncle who often 'looked after' me when I was a child.)

2 because well he slept with his friend, drunk or not and hid i...

Update

I'm at my mother's these past 2 weeks dealing with some family matters so can't progress much. But I'm basically coding in sprites into the main script so they will show up properly on screen in game and putting all the sound effects, music,etc. Hopefully I can get drawing again nest week at least.

Sketching some CGs and script duty

This week I manage to finish the demo script for Reaper, though not as long as I hope but I find it dragged on too long if I pushed it, so I cut it a bit short but of course the CG will be plenty. I also want to release Mark of A beloved's demo tbh because it is actually done in terms of the demo script and most cgs. Don't know if I ever can finish that whole VN alone but if my team from Amplit...

A day of Coding and UI change

I wanted to write but stuff happened this week with my day job so I'm stressing over that I suppose. However, I did manage to update the game's UI and coded the sprites for demo beside 2 more so, progress! I made to quick menu neater, dropping down when clicked and pop back up when clicked as well. This is to minimize CG blocking as I will be using Comic styled CGs again so I rather not have th...

Reapers Progress

Still working on the script for Reapers. I did finish it to my original demo idea, but I wanted to show off all the bachelors before ending the demo so it will be a bit longer than Lingering's demo and there is one particular CG scene that might take a while to make but I should pull through. I feel 'sane' enough to write again and that's a huuuge blessing for me

Although both writing and...

Redback DLC

Redback DLC code/raw script 

My partner Silent Morti has passed her final paper so she has time to work on Lingering and other projects again. Here's some raw scripts of Redback's DLC which still be polished further of course but this should explain why Redback is so antsy all the time and rarely sleeps. It also shows a bit of Mitchell personality.

The DLC should display more o...

Update and Art Pics

I got an update on Elysum comic details, I'm allowed to use my sprites that I have made of Nier, Luna and Val for other VNs but cannot use them as they are intended to as Elysium the game unless I made a different/alternative plot ^ ^. Also here's the Nier's comic art for Elysium, my artist  partner <bg artist for Lingering> drew them but I cannot disclose much beside this pic now! &...

Progess and emotional struggles

Indonesia's a dumpster fire atm. out of oxygens, friends and family dying right and left and a general sense of dread just reeks in the air. I lost a friend last week, her and her husband, child all died of covid and it genuinely shocked me. Sometimes drawing is difficult or even getting out of bed because I either feel anxious or just too sad. Idk if I'm depressed again, but regardless, I will...

The fluffy hair is back!

I haven't made this kind of hair since Amplitude and decided to bring it back all the bachelors are lined tho so can resume to coloring and later coding stuff in, since I used and recycled my Mark of A Beloved files it'll be a quick setup for this short free vn hopefully. 

Covid update and drawings

Feeling better but I got my confirmed positive on the 29th (tested on the 28th) so I have to be tested agan on the 12th. Things are very gloomy in Indonesia atm, but on the bright side I was able to make these characters. About Elysium (both bad and good news) I may not allowed to make it into a VN or not because I recently got  comic contract offer for the plot, so that is on hold for the...

Need time to rest (covid)

My family and I have contracted Covid so please excuse me for not posting anything until July, or when I have (hopefully recovered). Thankfully no one's feeling suffocated, just feverish, tired and headaches. Indonesia's cases have been on the rise since the new delta strain, no far off from India's situation no more beds and most emergency covid retreats are full. I hope all of you are well an...

In game test

Images, environment settings/lighting, and time system works great! The speaker are highlighted when they talk btw that's why Nier is slightly greyed out. I haven't created all of Nier small sprites so that's why his sprite changed when he sat in the chair. But I was able to get my monster fights animated a bit thx to dragonbones. I will probably show those later after I can get my laptop to re...

Valerie (Elysium)

Luna' best friend and the only sane one in her circle of friends. Has a crush on Luna but they're relationship is complex if not anything else.  A palladin soul magic type

Elysium

Surprise! I got to understand RPG and I think I can make Elysium in rpg form~ Still essentially a VN tho wish me luuck

Nier Sprite (Elysium)

Nier Sprite for Elysium

Scrap Mark of A Beloved?

Not gonna lie, I'm having a bit of an emotional breakdown coloring the mermaid, as I feel very blind for some reason. So worst case I might not finish coloring the mermaid cgs and just post the sketched or base colored in the demo. I think tbh  might even have to change course entirely and change to another VN theme altogether because I don't think I'm capable of finishing Mark of A Belove...

The last 4

The last 4 cg I need to color. Tbh I'm having mixed feelings about this work of mine but if reception is bad I can use the characters for other project(s) so I still will commit to uploading the demo and see from there. My main issue is really that this project is really big, but it won't work plot wise if I lessen the scope so if I have additional funds I can get the band together and continue...
