Devlog #6 📚 Classes

Wow, it’s fall!

In case you just stumbled upon this devlog, I am Adrienne, also known as insertdisc5! I am the creator of timeloop RPG In Stars and Time, and now am working on my next game, memory visual novel Truth Scrapper. It’s gonna be a good one.

This month, I drew things!

This month was all about adding everything about day 5 to the game. I’ve done a post on implementation a couple months ago so I won’t bore you with the details!

I also signed up for Peo Michie’s class on Intimacy and Characters for Comics and Illustrations, and it’s been very useful! Art-wise, working on Truth Scrapper has been challenging, since the characters have more realistic bodies than my previous game. AND since it’s a romance game, characters touch and interact with each other more often, so I wanted to get some advice from a pro!

One of the exercises for this class was to draw characters’ heads from various angles (so you can make ‘em kiss later), so I decided to do that for the three main characters. And let me tell you. NOW I CAN DRAW BETZ’S HAIR ON MODEL FOR SURE

After doing that, I spent a couple days updating some illustrations and portraits from previous days, to make sure they looked accurate. Some are definitely an improvement and everyone will agree, and some are improvements only to me, but let me tell you, WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT IT IS. BETZ YOU FINALLY LOOK LIKE SOMETHING.

In other news, I’ve done some prep and finally created some business cards for the game, to remind people to wishlist when we show the demo during conventions. We did that for In Stars and Time as well, and since I’m very good at doing business cards (and adding some spot gloss), I usually ran out of cards fairly quickly! I’ll get them in a couple weeks, so I’m excited to see how they look in person…

(the back of the cards has the logo, and a QR code linking to the steam page)

Wow, you read all of that… Thank you. Here’s one of the illustrations from Day 5 as a reward. Amour what did you do.

This was the Betz show huh. I'll show some Amour stuff next time.

Alright, back to the implementation mines I go! See you next month.

DON'T FORGET TO WISHLIST THE GAME ALSO IT REALLY HELPS BECAUSE STEAM’S ALGORITHM IS MORE LIKELY TO SHOW OFF GAMES WITH A HIGH AMOUNT OF WISHLISTS THATS THE REASON WHY GAME DEVS ALWAYS ASK TO WISHLIST!!! OKAY BYE!!!!
