RLFC game status update

Added 2024-06-10 18:08:24 +0000 UTC

Hi guys!

I've been getting back into the swing of things and taking a stock of the progress we've made on the game- hopefully this post will answer some of your questions!

The pixel-art side of the game is holding up well (thank you programmer ur pretty goated), in the initial update there should be a few levels including a few boss fights!

For the story/VN side of things there were about 80 or so panels that were already drawn, but old drawings are strange things... I kind of hate the way my art used to look? The colours are so dull and uninspired and Ryuko's expressions are often just *default pissy face*- where's the fire? Where's the dynamic poses and sharp crisp anime lighting? Where are the expressions that make you wanna squish and cuddle Ryuko/lead her down a sketchy alleyway naked?

I've been working on upgrading and redrawing these panels and I'll keep a running number channel (in #aboutlayla) in the Discord as well as an approximate goal for how many panels there should be for the first update. I'm going to leave the backgrounds very simple then come back to them after we release the first update (because drawing backgrounds is slow and boring and I am weak).

See you guys around!
