Pheonix's Tear Devlog

Through the Plans: Pheonix's Tear
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android

Hey everyone reading this devlog. Yellowchocobo here.

So, it's been a while since I posted the first demo of the game, and I was really happy that I received so much positive feedback. Thank you all. Plus I already have almost 140 followers! Wow! XD.

So I thought I should give some updates to those interested in my project. Here we go:

As for the story, I plan to rewrite everything, since the first build I managed to rewrite the texts and they are much better. I'm also working on immersion, which leads me to something I'm really happy with: I recently met an extraordinary composer, Azali. They said that I could use their music in the game, as long as I gave credit and didn't get anything from it of course. And, man... It's been a while since I've heard such lively music, I highly recommend checking out their YouTube channel or TikTok.

For the images, mainly the background ones, I'm working in a more drawing style, not real photos. I think that would go better with my story.

For the sprites, I plan on drawing them myself, as I can't afford to hire an artist. For that I'm working hard (in the little time I have) to improve my non-existent drawing skills ;-;.

Things you can perhaps expect from my project:

My story probably won't take more than a few hours to read. And the reading should be somewhat linear.

There will be at least three love interests for the protagonist, and I think 2 endings for each, plus a perfect ending and a bad ending. (I really hope I can do it ;-; ;-;)

Maybe in the very distant future I'll end up putting NSFW content, who knows. If it happens in the course of the narrative, it will be more suggestive and descriptive, probably visually, but maybe I'll change my mind.

Well, I think this is all for now. Feel free to give your feedback and pass Azali's channel, they are amazing.
