June Devlog
For this month, I don't have a lot to show, unfortunately.
The heatwave basically killed me and I couldn't spend much time with game development. I managed to work on some character art for the dialogue and added the events happening so far. I also started to look for good music to use in the game. But beyond that, there wasn't much.
I promise, next month will be better. If there won't be another heatwave...
May devlog
I've been working mostly on maps for the first big town in the game as well as character sprites relevant to the events happening there.
Next, I will be focusing on polishing what I have so far and work a bit more on the writing and events.
Small update + Art
Sorry for the silence, but I keep forgetting to post updates.
Anyway, since last time, I did a lot of art and smaller changes. I worked on a couple of new maps and on a lot of sprites. I also started to work on the menu.
And here's a speedpaint for one of the characters status portrait:
February Devlog
Here's a short list of what I got done in february:
Two more maps
A bit more dialogue
Sprites for the main party and some NPCs
My plans for march:
Finish updated designs for the main cast and the villains
Make sprites for the villains
Finish one of the biggest maps/location in the game (several separate maps and interiors)
I wanted to make a devlog post for january, but I kinda got distracted. Still, I managed to finish the first few maps and some dialogue. Busts and portraits are still placeholders.
A first preview of the upcoming game. WIP of the first map.
New Update
Hello everyone. I'm just posting to say that Northstar Tales still exists and that I'm still working on making games.
And I will be working on a new one soon! I'll try to post things regularly here, include extra bits like WIPs or thoughts I have about the game and game development.
I will also start a devlog on itch.io. You can find the link in the description.
Anyway, stay tuned for updates!
I’ve finally started to work on the battle system properly. Well, kinda, since I’ll work on the balancing once all enemies are functional. But it’s a step!
I don’t think I’ll manage to draw something for Halloween, so just have two of my boys in fall clothes. Also, I tried some cell-shading again, just to make sure I still know how to do it XD
I’m finally back on working on “The Voices Within” and I’ve finally finished the second dungeon!
Other news:
I’ve decided to remake the way dialogue is presented. It will no longer be in a Visual Novel style, but instead speech bubbles with portraits. The VN busts were simply too big and distracted from what was going on on the map. However, I will (most likely) use a similar method for the skits.
Also, I managed to get a composer! The game will finally have custom music and I’m so happy about this! Look forward to their amazing work in the game.
It is done! It is finished! My entry for this years IGMC is finally here!
Please take a look at “Project Ark” here:
https://blackrosemii.itch.io/project-ark
It’s already week 3, but I didn’t have much to show during week 2 (due to my real life situation). But now I’ve been able to work almost non-stop, so development is going very smoothly! 10 out of 13 maps have been done and I’ve already started on making the events.
Here, have a screenshot:
Week 1 of my IGMC entry this year: Finished a solid outline of the story, characters, locations and gameplay. Finished the first two maps and (almost) all character sprites. All in all, a pretty good start. I even have something to show already!Â
Quick update on The Voices Within
I’ve worked hard on the game, even though I don’t update much. But the development will be on hiatus for a while, since I will be joining this years IGMC! So look forward to that.
The first dungeon is finally finished! It was quite a lot of work, but I think it was worth it.
Finished some portraits and the first few scenes!
(Btw, they’re animated, but you obviously can’t see it in a screenshot XD)
Finally, we have a title Logo!
