New Game!
The hit new game from yours truly has entered actual development! This project is still exceedingly early in development but after several years of throwing shit at a wall and none of it sticking, it has finally reached a point where it has begun to cohere enough for me to feel confident I can talk about it more officially.
What is it? (Are you ruining B//C's ending?)
This is NOT A SEQUEL!!!! At one point I considered a sequel but that story is done.
HOWEVER, this will be a return to Amelia, Charlie, and Heather and exploring those characters further (among others).
The simplest explanation is that it is a different take on the story that is also in conversation with the previous one.
What is the Current Progress?
Still extremely early, don't expect it any time soon. Butterfly//Circuit's original prologue was done for a college thesis and was built off of something I had already written and half the development time of the full was done during college and subsequent unemployment. For this project however I am afforded no such luxuries and my time and energy are a lot more limited working a full time job and whatnot.
With that said, I am hoping that art assets will come along smoother as I am thoroughly switching the visual style to something that I think A) looks better and B) is easier to make -- working to my strengths. As for music, I know my music is so awesome and cool and everyone loves it but I may get some additional help from other talented producers I have had the pleasure of working with from Data Sparrow which will help reduce the workload.
Why?
I was simply drawn back to those three.
At first I tried formulating a plan for something totally unrelated, something about ghosts as I had gotten into Wraith the Oblivion and Orpheus. Had some cool ideas but then that fell through. Didn't feel a proper narrative hook me.
Later on I took some of the seeds from that and figured, hey, maybe I don't need the supernatural stuff as much as I would like to do something like that, it's the Characters! and World! that matter, so I decided to go back to the setting, explore the formation of NEFET with different characters. I was going in on this quite heavily and planned quite a bit, but much like a meal with not enough fat and salt, it had some of the spice I wanted but didn't have the fullness that grasps me.
And then I realised, hey I can simply do a Ryukishi or a Toby Fox, I can get weird~ with it, and once I got weird with it I started going insane again which brings us to this announcement.
Just Some Pictures
Nothing indicative of a final product, mostly testing stuff and concept work but a yummy delicious teaser nonetheless.
