Woaahhh, I finally have some characters sketched out to show you! Take a peak…
This is actually the first time I’ve drawn most of them, so they may change much more during the game’s development! We’ll see.
The two in the middle are Lisa (left) and Zoe (right); they are best friends. You play as Zoe and can date the other four in the foreground. In this instance, she’s picked Matt, and everyone else continues walking, leaving them to it. It was an accidental concept that I actually really like, haha! Perhaps I’ll have an image like this down Zoe and Matt’s route near the end? Hmm…
So, I guess you can assume from this that my first story arc is, more or less, finished! I’m currently testing it out on a guinea pig to get some early feedback, but it’s had two drafts now and is feeling much more polished. Now, the artwork needs that much attention given to it.
I ordered a brand spanking new Macbook Pro yesterday and it’s (apparently) going to arrive today! It’s nearly 3pm, though, and still no sign of it… boo.
I figured I really need a laptop for my work as it’s useful to get out and about, participate in game jams, work on the train etc etc. I was using an old Windows one until recently, but the battery died and I just gave up on it! Shiny Macbook FTW. Also, it’s just over one more week until GDC! I am so excited! I’ll be catching up with a few friends but hopefully meeting some new ones too :) I have made a rough schedule of the talks I want to see but I’m just going to roll with it; I’ve no idea what to expect! I’ve never been to San Francisco either, eeeee!
