ENG/ Weekly News #6
Added 2019-06-21 15:36:28 +0000 UTCProgress Update
And that's it, all the dialogues/fights are now set up! We are basically on the same game time as the 1st episode (~20 minutes to finish).
Zack will be able to start working on the different touch-ups and improvements you have proposed (even if you seem to like it, we won't be able to do Kyle in the shower right away π ).
Sunny on her side continues to do work on the poses, it's the last big task we have left, once finished, the release of episode 2 shouldn't be very long anymore!
Evolution of the characters' rendering
This week we took a little time to look at something that we wanted to do from the beginning but that we couldn't consider before because we were starting from scratch and there was already a lot to do. It is about having 3D characters (while keeping our cartoon/manga style) during the dialogue/combat phases.
Don't worry, the backgrounds/illustrations will continue to be done in a traditional way. This change will allow us to have much more lively characters (movements, facial animations, customization of clothes...), but also to produce the different poses faster (it remains to this day the point that takes us the most time).
We are currently running tests that are going very well. We'll show you how it looks soon.
That's all for this time! If you have not yet played episode 1, it is available here. To join us on Discord it's this way!π
