2016.11.27 - High res test!

Here’s the game playing at it’s new resolution: 1280x720! (Thanks to the recently released AGS 3.4!) The video is scaled down, however.

You’ll also see the new recolored player sprite, and 6 rooms.

Walkable areas and connection points have been configured. Next I’ll be adding the objects/items, NPCs and their dialog, then probably more rooms.

2016.11.27 - Your house, Markets 1, Tailor, Tailor inside

In order to build a test with more rooms, I sketched out some stand-in backgrounds on a rule-of-thirds grid. 

These will likely be adjusted to have a better balance between playable area and eye candy, providing a broader field of view and more detail. But for now, they’re just ugly placeholders

2016.11.27 - Updated player walk cycle

Adjusted to match the new color scheme. Sash to be added later...

2016.11.11 - Updates to player character

Tweaked the fur color and gave him a sash. I think the other color was too light and bland, and the colors weren’t different enough.

2016.11.11 - Deer outfit

That cafe-server deer girl in work clothes… It’s a mushroom-themed cafe! They serve refreshing blended drinks, including all kinds of tropical fruit.

2016.11.10 - Another assortment of NPCs

You’ll have lots of tasks throughout the game, so there’s a lot of characters you’ll interact with in different ways to progress

2016.11.05 - test

Very early/rough test of the game in Adventure Game Studio. This uses the built-in “Sierra” inspired controls and HUD–which I’ll probably replace in favor of “verb-coin” style, more like Curse of Monkey Island or the remastered Day of the Tentacle.

2 rooms, 2 NPCs, 3 items

2016.11.05 - items

a few poorly drawn items for the sake of being able to use them in game

[littleforestisland]

2016.11.04 - More temporary backgrounds

Here’s 2 rooms for testing purposes. Likely to change drastically, especially the treehouse one.

2016.11.04 - Early-game Primary NPCs

Bright friendly cafe server deer girl, and short eccentric tailor squirrel dude

These 2 you’ll see earlier in the game. Both of them have work for you!

[littleforestisland]

2016.10.18 - Late-game Primary NPCs

fluffy quiet bookkeeper dragon girl and chubby nervous hot springs attendant raccoon… these 2 don’t appear until later in the game

2016.10.17 - Background tests pt 2

Just developing the color and concept for the first two backgrounds in the game. Beach and treehouses.

The flat colors and general themes of these two areas, pay homage to Bionicle’s Mata-Nui Online Game, which is a big inspiration for this game.

That game also starts on a beach and later takes you to a jungle with treehouses.

2016.10.12 - Player Walk w/ Tail

Here’s the walk animation with tail added. Still not 100% perfect but this will do for now.

[littleforestisland]

2016.10.07 - NPC rabbit idle

Touched up and gave an idle animation to one of the bunnies. Will do the same for the others soon.

[littleforestisland]

2016.10.04 - Map colors

Testing color pallets for the different locations. I want each to feel like it has a distinct tone. Still designing the market, clothes shop and town square.

Areas and colors are largely inspired by the different villages in MNOG

[littleforestisland]

2016.10.01 - Player Walking

I made a walking animation! Will add the tail later, and also fix a few things about the movement.

This is my 4th animation and first fully colored one!

2016.09.30 - NPCs

Here’s a bunch of NPC characters! The two on the left will be in the market place. The tiger is a fitness guru, the bear is a fisherman. The rabbits and squirrels are just filler characters, and can be color swapped accordingly.

More to come!
