Middle Month Grind - Scary Sprites, and Nice Sound!

From where I left off...

1. We continue with the creation of the remainder of the secondary sprites, and the main sprites. Everything from hearts, brains and bodies, to the final design of the 3 main love interests, Dog, and all other sprites needed. In the end, I did end up simplifying some of the mechanics. There is still going to be a body chop shop, but to save time I cut down on the kind of assets I was going to make for it. Originally there was going to be 3 kinds of people you could find to... uh, to feed the aberrant with, a man, a woman, and a more androgynous person. Instead, I'm just going to make it super ambiguous so I'm not spending time changing hair/skin colors/body types. There's only one or two opportunities to "hunt" in the game anyway, so I didn't want to make all these assets when you'd only get a chance or two to actually do it lol.
2. Unfortunately, with me cutting back on assets to make to simplify some of the mechanics, as I was finishing the story, the script naturally progressed to a point where that meant I needed to add new sprite assets to be completed. I removed about 6 assets from the production line due to wanting to simplify, but I added 9 more for the story. Oof.
3. Luckily, with the simplicity required for the assets I was creating from scratch, I got these done relatively quick within about 3-4 days, and then it was time to move on.
4. I was going to start sound and ambience on Sept 17 (today when releasing this log), when I finished the last of the assets but I've been nose to the grind for the past week or so, so I was lazy about getting these done today. Music in all honestly doesn't take me long to do, especially with only a few tracks, so I reckon this will only take me a few days to do and will include it in next weeks devlog! :D

I think that's it for this week! Next I'll be tackling the importing of assets into the game file, voice work, and programming. Then it's play test central until release~! :D
