Hello! I've done a couple things since the last post.
Firstly, I finally made portrait art for the tutorial boss, Leon!
He's one of the first characters encountered--a petty gang leader that Saki has the misfortune of angering, and who inadvertently ends up dragging her into the town's supernatural phenomena. He's kind of a smug loser, which is a lot of fun to draw facial expressions for.
With most necessary maps finished, I've also started working on formally putting together the game's opening sequence. I've been mostly just retool the way the game handles cutscenes to be more manageable on a large scale over the past few days, but I've managed to get started on constructing the actual scenes now.
Here's a short snippet of the game's first cutscene, in which Sakiko wakes up from a dream on a train. The station platform is still a little unfinished, but everything else is complete!
