Hi there,
I noticed there are quite a few lines of dialogue for Castoria that don't have any voice acting. Was this intentional, or is this a bug?
Platform: Windows
When does this occur? very frequently. When Castoria makes you coffee, for example.
Unfortunately, it's intentional x3 Not ideal, but I don't have a choice at the moment.
Basically, it's because the original game jam version of this was fully-voiced, and because it was for a jam, the voice actors very kindly volunteered their time and talent to the project :3 I recently gave the old content a total revamp to give people a better idea of how I want the game to look going forward, and part of the update included more choices and a tiny bit more content than what was available originally.
Sadly, because it's been so long and because voice acting is expensive, I'm kind of in limbo at the moment as far as getting new lines voiced is concerned. Thanks to everyone's support, I do have a bit of funding to go towards paying voice actors, but because of the huge gap in time, it's looking like it may not be possible to get the same voice actors back to reprise their roles.
I didn't want to put the mini-update off forever because I'd been sitting on it for quite some time (same as I have a lot more content written, just not playable yet) and so I just kept all the original voice acting in there, and the new lines of dialogue are currently unvoiced.
Hopefully, that will change at some point. Even if it's not possible to get the original VAs back, it'll most likely be a case of trying to recast actors with similar voices.
But yeah, whenever you come across an unvoiced line of dialogue in the demo, it's just because it's a new line that didn't exist in the original jam version of the game, so it doesn't have any voice acting yet :3
