Happy Pi Day! (3.14)
Hey everyone. Here's what I did for the past two weeks.
1) VISUALS -
I drew some outfits and poses for the characters, which involved references and some research. Lineart and new pose for one character is coming along, and I'll need to add the new outfit to the other two characters. Those two characters probably won't need new poses - just the outfits. Then I'll need to add color. And then I'll probably need to create new transform functions to position them correctly. Ahaha! I'm also making a list of those sprites to draw to stay organized.
I chose and edited more backgrounds for the latest events.
I might need to draw a set of sprites for one character that comes later in the story to better describe the type of interactions between the main character and that other character.
Since the latest event once again involves all 3 sprites, it was challenging trying to figure out how to coordinate them. One character does most of the talking, but are the other characters supposed to react or stay totally still? Hm. And trying to match up expressions and poses with the character's words is tricky, too.
2) WRITING -
I needed to revise a portion of the writing in one scene so it would make sense with the backgrounds and the general flow of the story. I coordinated one character's actions with changes in the environment, instead of having them described separately.
And that's what I did.
TO-DO LIST:
1) Edit and proofread all text for pacing, missed plot holes, etc. (see physical notes)
1) Finish creating and adding sprites
- Event 1 (dog)
- Event 2 (outfits and poses)
- Event 3
2) Finish creating, editing, and adding backgrounds
- Event 2
- Event 3
3) Fix the dancing sprite problem
4) Sound effects
- Find, bookmark, choose, download (see physical notes and charts)
- Edit if needed
- Add/test
5) Music
- Find, bookmark, choose, download (see physical notes and charts)
- Edit if needed
- Add/test
6) CGs
- Edit 1 CG for outfit and color
- Color 1 CG
7) Credits
- Determine how to end the game (with credits, fadeout, go directly to title screen, etc.)
- Edit text in the 'About' screen
- Include a document with credits for all assets
8) Test build (somehow)
Stay well.
