SuNoFes: End of Week 4

HENLO!!!

I'm here to share my progress for the week!! There's a lot of new stuff to show, even though my checklist says I've still got practically nothing done!!!


Topics

  • Video of video game (a video video game if you will)
  • Title screen
  • New character designs just dropped
  • ELIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
  • Random screenshots so that I don't break tradition
  • How


I Gamed!!!!!

I thought it would be cool to do a fancy thing for the devlog this time so several days ago I played my game and recorded me playing my game!! Now you can see what I see every single afternoon!!!



As you can see there's a new title! Which brings me to my next thgingymehabobbr.....


New Title Screen

So there was this one person who told me a bunch of things and THEN I did those things!!! Now I like the title screen/main menu/cover art a lot more ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️



I also have the composition a decent way for when it gets put as the itch cover art and then gets 120% of the picture cropped off

(Oh btw I was planning on making the big square in the middle a blanket, thought that'd be cute)


CONCEPT ART?! IN THIS ECONOMY?!!!

I decided that IT WAS TIME they got official designs (since it'd be a little goofy if they were all naked)



As you can see...

  1.  Elio is sad
  2.  Calum got that "uwu so kawaii desu ne" look to him
  3.  Warrick is goofy (and 5% inspired by a character from a video game that is not this video game)


エリオ・ボルコフ

SO

I have done intense work on getting him finished

Which he almost is!!

He has almost all of his expressions!

Here's some of them (even though a few were already shown in the video)


Happy



Upset



Mad



Shocked



Nox



Also

I hope there's no objections to his outfit in the concept

Because I went ahead and drew him in his clothes


ELIO ISN'T NAKED ANYMORE!!!



I also drew his alternate pose but it's a lot simpler than I usually do

50% because I was lazy and 50% because I'm making the compromises I need to make for the game to get done



Fun Fact!!

The filenames for his portraits get kinda crazy



A lot of what I got done this week was drawing Elio! He's so close to being done...!

I plan on starting Calum, next! Maybe I'll get to show pictures of the both of them next week...


Screenshots

Because it'd be weird if I didn't after doing so for the past several weeks


Sad boi hours



ELIO HAS CLOTHES



Warrick is an epic programmer



...But his brain doesn't work



Weirdo



So many screenshots!!


A Word Regarding Development

I had so much content to share in this devlog... but it still feels like I did so little! It's really weird.

I've spent so many hours drawing, wrote hundreds of words and plugged them all into the game... but seeing the dozens of things I HAVEN'T done makes it so hard to appreciate my progress...

I hope it feels like I got a lot done to you! I put in extra effort this week... and I feel like that shows, at the very least!


In Conclusion



Summary

  1.  Early gameplay video now on YouTube
  2.  New cover/title/menu art
  3.  The characters have clothes!!
  4.  Elio has expressions (AND CLOTHES)
  5.  Warrick is goofy
  6.  I will continue to game


SuNoFes is about halfway over... and I intend to have an epic game by the end of it!


I hope you enjoyed the update! See you next week!!

Bye-Bye~! <3

The boys are looking nice! Calum in particular is kawaii sugoi desu :3 I really like how the demo looks so far, Elio's really cute!! Maybe the dialogue color should be adjusted a little so it doesn't blend in to the background as much, or make the textbox transparency be a little more opaque so we could see the text easily? I'm really happy you took my suggestions and put it in the composition :3 I can't wait to play it once it's fully finished!

Thank you for your words!!!

Indeed, I'm not very fond of the way the text and texbox colors mesh right now, so I'm keeping that in mind for when I make the official UI thingies!!


Elio is cute!

Calum is kawaii desu ne!!

And Warrick is Warrick!!!
