Early Development - 2nd Reverie

It is after noon on March 4th...

A new character has been announced, and several pieces of music have been completed.

After showcasing the first of three main characters, Akari, at the end of last year, it is time to introduce the second. Though not all animations have been completed, most of the artwork for Keiva is in a finished state. Keiva is unknown to both the player character and Akari at the onset of the narrative, but has a central role throughout the novel and several of its possible story path endings. She is sarcastic and relaxed in nature, but can also be quite guarded and protective when the situation calls for it.

The only other progress made since last post (73 days ago) is three new pieces of music. One of these includes a remake of the main theme, originally composed in GarageBand and now remade in FL Studio. The main theme has yet to be released, but one of the new songs was posted to the quite adept youtube channel. This brings the soundtrack to seven songs so far, five of which are fully mixed and mastered while the other two still need some auditory tweaks.

Here's where we're at so far:

• Characters - 2 of 3 main characters drawn and animated (Keiva) and coded (Akari) - 0 of ? side characters drawn and coded
• Artwork - 4 of ? background artwork created - logo completed - GUI artwork about 40% complete
• Music - 7 of 20+ tracks completed
• Dialogue - 7380 words written out of expected 80,000 words across all story paths
• Overall - at this point, the game is approximately 11% complete

That's all for now. Thank you. - quite adept
