After a long time I finally jumped back into the creation of KEIMŌ: CHAPTER 1
Since my last update on the creation of my game a lot of things have happened (not too much) and now you might be wondering :
Q: Gil, why did you abandon the project?
A: Unfortunately my laptop (the main tool for working on the game) died at the beginning of January and I had to suspend the development of the game.
Q:Gil, so when is the game coming out?
A: In a few weeks I'm starting to study architecture at college, so I'm thinking of working on KEIMO during my breaks. I hope to have the first chapter ready and launching before the end of the year.
Q: Has KEIMO undergone any changes in recent months?
A: Yes, I took the time to redesign KEIMO's sprites and take a different style for the portraits, For now I'm the only one in the dev-team so I'm working alone on the game, so its sometimes hard to give myself some feedback about the design so I try to do what it feels right.
Q: Is KEIMO going to be the only project this year?
A: Hopefully no, I plan to work on small short games with different and new characters, KEIMO is a slightly larger work and has 3 acts, complex in script and mechanics, So I see it as viable to work on small projects during the development of KEIMO.
Q:Have you thought about how to promote the project?
A: As you can see in the visuals of the post, I have created chibi illustrations of my characters. I plan to sell little stickers sheets and prints at conventions and build an audience little by little.
Creating a game is a big job but everything involved makes it exciting and an incentive to continue working on it. !
I can't wait for all these ideas to finally come to light.
And that you can meet KEIMO.
And that KEIMO can meet you .
Hope that all can start soon!
