Cameras! Layout! Calendar! A book?

Project Coastal
A downloadable game

Hey! I've been working on a few things which I'm ready to show. 

Firstly, in other RPGs there's a shelf sometimes that changes and allows you to add new knick-knacks collected. I like this feature but sometimes you just want to get a good look at your goodies:

You'll also notice the layout is a bit different. I like the look of the door in this corner and it allows for some more interesting use of space.

The desk is new too! Hmm? But what is that placeholder item on the desk? Maybe a book to write in? I'll keep you guessing on that one.

The second feature is a calendar mechanic - I'll be the first to admit my love for Persona. The early Persona games had amazing stories but I really missed the social aspect. I want to infuse some of that into my game: The calendar system is really simple - you select the bed in the room and it allows you to sleep that day. Events can be preset or scheduled on different days with different characters. I'm excited to share more soon!

Until then, keep your eye on this blog!
