Writing? Writing.

Hey all! Hamadyne here. Today, I'm here to talk to you about what I do on the team - writing.  The act of writing is an arduous process, with countless hours of preparation resulting in just a few pages of text. It's frustrating, annoying, and often gives me a headache.  That being said, I wouldn't trade this for the world.  Writing for a character is meant to be a challenge. Often when writing a scene, I'll have to write for two, maybe three people at a time. Differing mindsets, beliefs, and intentions drive much of the dialogue between characters, as well as driving the story forward as a whole. It wouldn't be in good form to make two identical, bland characters that only spoke about aircraft and popcorn. No one would like it, and the story wouldn't move unless something completely inconsistent to the scene occurred.  This of course leads to more writers blocks than a brick factory. It's tiring to try to slog through a scene, esp...

Something or Other

It's been about a month since our last character release (excluding Parrot-tan). As you may have noticed, the blog has been rather empty since then. Truth be told, it may be like that for a while. See, general development updates are rather boring (They usually amount to, scenes written today, art assets made today, programmers doing some incomprehensible tech stuff today), and finicky besides. The problem with posting progress is that it's liable to change very suddenly and very often. Besides that, we've also been a bit wobbly getting on our feet. With all the fun pre-production stuff mostly out of the way, the shift into the long slog of actual production hasn't been exactly smooth. There's been a bit of internal weirdness (all sorts of arguments and hurt feelings that arise from working with a large ass team where no one makes decisions) besides, but all in all I think we're starting to get the pace of it. I might as well give you guys some development...

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter, folks! We've been working hard behind the scenes, and we thought that today (seeing as it's a holiday) we'd show you something a little special! Art by myuto Now get out there and pig out on candy! Or buy it tomorrow, it'll be cheaper.

Character Preview #7: Renée Baum

Artist - yune Character writer & creator - Smokey Hello everyone! Looks like it's time for another preview! I'm Smokey and I'm honored to present you with another character of ours. Enjoy~ Name: Renée Baum Nationality: German Hair colour: Blonde (Dyed green) Eye colour: Brown She is quiet yet ambitious, and enjoys a close relationship with her natural surroundings- she is a proud member of the school's astronomy club. She's a bit shy, not willing to talk to others unless she has to; getting to know her reveals a very bubbly girl with a penchant for savory food. She enjoys long walks in the woods, hardcore rap music, mango Fanta, and red meat. They'll listen to "whatever" and don't seem to care much for television - largely due to the fact that (with the exception of the news) the only television show the pair have watched from start to finish is Spokoynoy nochi, malyshi . When not listening to her seemingly infinite repositorie...
