We're running a bit late on the Vibaelia tier artworks -_-

But without further ado, here's February's Vibaelia piece, requested by aidenraine! aidenraine specially wanted us to release this piece to the world so everyone can enjoy it. 

And we hope you all do.

Have a wonderful day.

CASUAL RITONA INDOORS

Just realized that we never showed what Ritona looks like with her coat off indoors. 

Here it is~.

Ritona's House

Off to the background studio! This will be the layout of Ritona's house. Once again, side note: many things are censored as to not spoil anything in the game.

This will be the biggest background art in the series so far at 3840 x 1080, making it  bigger than Sol and Mils front yard. We are experimenting with camera control where you the player can take control of the zoom function and look around the house so there will be elements of searching and interacting.  Thats right.&...

Rughzenhaide's Innerworkings

Let's do 2 posts today shall we? These are concrete now so we can share it with people without having to backpedal.  We had to heavily censor the image above though as to not spoil anything... and sorry it's in Japanese. I thought it might be interesting either way though.

As I've said before, the country is split in 5 sectors and each one will have its own season overlooked by tens and hundreds of manakravters that work together to control the weather. The green ring arou...

MUSIC UPDATE ・ CASTING

As the saying goes, we've got good news and bad news. Let's start with the bad one since most people usually like to get that out of the way. 

Our music guy AARAS who's worked on the exceptional soundtrack of fault milestone two : side above has officially left ALICE IN DISSONANCE. For the record, there was absolutely 0 tension or bitterness from either parties. He just needed to focus on other things asides from music and I know how that is. Sometimes you gotta bite the bullet and se...

PS VITA MAKEOVER 2 ZHEVITZ FAMILY!

Huge changes here as well! Some of the event CG's will be redone because of this change...

It's like we're basically partially remaking the game orz

New comers will have no idea the history behind milestone one... 

Want to see them bigger? Download the attachment and you can see in detail, just like all of other posts.

Have a wonderful day folks~!

MELANO DESERVES HER OWN GOD DAMNED POST

Title says it all don't it?

Download the attachment to see her bigger! 

Hare-san sure has come a long way... 

PS VITA MS1 CHARACTER MAKEOVER

Those of you that have been following us since the beginning (or did extensive research after) probably know that we've been updating all of our sprites as we hit major release milestones. The largest one to date would be the Kickstarter makeover where Selphine, Ritona, and Rune were completely remade from scratch (with the addition of sprites to the entire cast of Lab 9 and more)

We didn't have the time to get around doing the Melano group though, so for the Vita release we're...

[StP] Riggs Bowen + Facial expressions

Riggs is always the last guy to get an update. Next time I'm going to show him off first...

Btw, I wanted to clarify something.. we read all of your messages! If it's not urgent though, we tend not to reply because there's a million things going on at any given time -_-.

Wanted to thank all of you regulars that frequently leave comments. You guys know who you are. Really appreciate it!

MS1 CAMERA UPDATE COMING VERY SOON

fault milestone one is getting a camera plugin makeover! WTF is a camera plugin makeover you ask!? The camera plugin was used in milestone two:side above to give the game visual depth by assigning a Z coordinate to all sprites in order to  emulate a camera's single point perspective to achieve parallax! WTF does that mean you say? 

IT WAS THE THING THAT MADE MS2A AS COOL AS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PILLOW!!!! (and what gave it its unique dynamic look that still is very much a kind o...

[StP] Flora Serenhaide + Facial expressions

Flora... has definitely got that "going to be popular" vibe. 

Sorry, I'm a bit busy today so no witty comment today. -_- 

[StP] Miishah Rhuglus + Facial expressions

CLOQS male uniform. 

Lets knock out the rest of the crew shall we. We've got a pretty big cast for Silence the Pedant...

[STP] Ritona Uniform Final + Facial Expressions

Ritona Uniform Design. Done. (I'm just gonna keep doing the Ramsay thing)

Tidbit Knowledge: The half finger gloves is customized by Ritona herself and is not standard issue CLOQS uniform.  She is the most comfortable manipulating mana when certain fingers are exposed.

[StP] Bonus Material - ピコモゥ

Bonus material!

So this should probably go without saying but there are animals in the fault world. These guys are called ピコモゥ (haven't decided on an English phonetic name yet) and they will  be getting a good amount of screen time in StP. 

We're going with the middle 3 for the final design.

[StP] The Casual Four

Casual clothing of the 4 main cast. Done. (in a Gordon Ramsay-esque tone)

As expected, we had to fiddle with the colors a bit because they on the original pass were all way too flat looking. Ritona was drowned out by Flora's bright red hair when next to her and Misha and Riggs looked more or less like like extras. 

The colors here should denote a hierarchy of significance in a subtle way. The largest percentage of red is placed on Ritona since she is the main character, ...

[StP] Riggs, casual clothing, process one

Riggs designs. Settled on the bottom right. Top 2 mids were very close to making it but once again it was a bit too extravagant. Will probably get reused somewhere for a different country than Rughzenhaide, most likely one of the *Union tribes which will be poetic since Riggs' uncle is from the Union.

Riggs was, as you can see, way more scrawny than he was in ms2a. All those years of construction did wonders it seems. Make no mistake though. No matter how much *...

[StP] Misha, casual clothing, process one

Misha the delinquent. Born outside of the walls of Rughzenhaide, Misha was adopted by a step-mother that refused to work and henceforth was sent to live in **District 0 but was promised rights to live within the *Four Quarters of inner Rughzenhaide if she adopted a parentless child.

Not a lot of bullying goes around in Rughzenhaide but Misha's family is pretty much ignored and has very little interaction with other residents of Rughzenhaide. Misha himself feels out of p...

[StP] Ritona, casual clothing, process one

We heard you loud and clear. I'll upload the process of refining these characters in short bursts. More frequent updates of random stuff!

Here's what we have so far of Ritona (14) casual. Top 4 designs were all good but I needed Ritona to look more like a slob/bum because of the setting of the story. All the designs were too overly designed and the primness was detracting from a more gritty feel I was going for. We were gonna scrap the the whole thing and start fro...

[StP] FLORA SERENHAIDE

Flora Serenhaide (14) My my will you look at that.. January is almost over.

Flora Sketches! Just a reminder, all designs are subject to change at any time. Which leads me to a question... Do you guys want more updates frequently even if materials shown may not make it in the final version of the game?

We thought this might ultimately add to confusion or get peoples hopes up but these things take time to finalize... 

If you guys are simply curious, we'll make it...

[StP] VALAH RUGHZENHAIDE

Went through about 4 or 5 different iterations but Hare-san and I finally came up with something we both agreed on.  A quick sketch of Selphine's father, Valah Rughzenhaide.

A lot of the character designs are finally coming together now. We'll be periodically releasing them to our Patrons first!

The fault in our OST

 Some minor bad news. Most of the physical version of the OST’s turned out to have weird clicking and popping noises on all of the tracks that makes it basically not listenable. We’re not pointing fingers yet but there’s a good chance something went wrong during the press cycle since our masters here in the studio sound fine. We’re trying to figure out what happened with the printing company but they haven’t responded to our emails so we’ll have to wait and see how things turn o...

Happy Belated New Years

Happy belated New Years!

I think it's safe to say that AiD had a pretty damn good 2015. All thanks to you guys. No matter how many games sell on Steam, our Patrons direct support helps us out morally the most. Thank you for being awesome and heres to an even better 2016

Polybag, art born right here on Patreon!

Submerciful, one our patrons, wanted to see the polybag that we are gonna give out at Comiket. The art was born right here on Patreon! Sorry this is kind of a rush job (small hairs and dust is visible... orz) for the photo but you can get a feel of how it turned out. 

2014 Anime Expo Exlusive Shikishi

We got a request to release this artwork from one of our patrons. This was printed on a shikishi  board and was given out to the people at attended Anime Expo last year. This is the digital version. Enjoy!
