Release VI // Chapters 12, 13, 14 & 15


Release VI is here!

Release VI contains four chapters, four music tracks, five bios and one CG. It's my biggest update yet!


Well, I managed to do it (somehow)!

Actually, what made it easier was that sneakily, the Tuesday before last, I'd already started creating all the backgrounds for these four chapters. While they aren't super detailed or anything, it still took a few days to create them all.

Instead of implementing the writing, sprites, backgrounds,and music in that order, this time I created the music, then the backgrounds, the sprites, and then the writing. The reason for this was that I wanted to make sure the music tracks weren't terrible, and I didn't want them to be subject to "crunch time". Whatever I decide to make first in the week usually ends up being the best element, because I'm still riding the motivation kick from the last update.

As I thought, creating four chapters in one week was harder, but in some ways, it wasn't... the hardest part was creating the mystery chapter. If this was a linear novel, I could probably release four chapters a week easily (well, maybe not "easily"), but I think the game would be a lot less fun.

I've also updated the Press Kit with the new characters introduced in this Release.

Enjoy!
