The Last December

A story of hope lost and gained. A journey of dreams and redemption.

Find courage you didn’t know you had as an eighteen year old girl who doesn’t have much time left. Tired of the pointless regimen of treatments and medications, you decide to escape the hospital and embark on the journey of a lifetime.

Together, with the help of newfound friends— an artist whose dreams were destroyed along with a car accident; a mysterious guy who has made sacrifices he regrets; a top-scoring intern doctor who is torn between achievement and his conscience; a talented musician too shy to show the world himself; a blind girl who sees clearer than most; and a young boy full of scars struggling to find a place he belong— complete your bucket list, ride a motorbike, watch the sunrise, have your first kiss, and visit the amazing town of Cornucopia.

Learn more than you ever thought possible: explore, laugh, cry, love, be a crazy kid and ultimately, maybe just learn how to live… even with death whispering at your heels.

This is one story you don’t have time to miss!

Update time!

Story: We updated the script for the intro with grammar fixes and some phrasing issues which we thought wasn’t flowing as well as we wanted it to. We’re working on the basic draft of the 1st chapter for route 1, and the editing/refining of the 1st chapter for the common route concurrently. Besides that, we’re also currently re-working out the story flow bit by bit. Some more changes will be made to the current intro in the mini pre-alpha demo we have now, but it won’t be done so soon.

Art: Our character artist is re-tweaking Zayn’s sprites before working on his expression sheet. Just look at him *w*

Music & Sound Effects: We’ve added in more sound effects to the mini pre-alpha demo and also changed up a few of our background tracks in certain scenes to something we thought would fit better. Still not really satisfied yet, but we’ll slowly get there.

Programming: Just some minor bug fixes in the current mini pre-alpha demo which will be uploaded some time next week.

...

Next milestone: We’re hoping to finish the edits for common route chapter 1 before end April so that we can start working on chapter 1 for route 2 too. In the meantime, we will continue to tweak the mini pre-alpha demo and the SFX to provide a more immersive experience.

Hey guys,

Sorry it’s been a long while since an update, but I’m back. We’ve been working on The Last December here and there, slowly but surely. Now with the Covid-19 going around, I hope you guys are staying home and staying safe.

Just wanna drop by and say hi, now that I have slightly more time to work on the project. I’ll update again soon.

27th September 2018

Hey everybody!

I’m excited to say things are finally picking up speed! We’ve been working to replace our current art assets from previously, and both our background artist and character artist have shown us some really awesome work. I’M HERE TO SHOW SOME SNEAKPEAKS muahahahaha.

I’m also working together with our other author and our dear editor/proofreader to improve our script (it’s a never ending progress cries). Hopefully an updated demo v0.0.5.1 will be ready some time in October.

Meanwhile, you can try out our demo v0.0.5 on itch.io for free!

That’s all for now! I’ll see you guys again soon on Halloween, maybe? ;)

The Last December Demo v0.0.5

Hi guys!

It’s been a long wait, but TLD’s updated demo is finally out! This demo version has an estimated of 20-30 minutes playtime per run through and a total of 16,000+ words, which is much much longer than the previous one! The demo mainly serves as an intro to the 5 different routes available in the future full release. The new user interface design and updated character sprites and background art have also been implemented. Not only that, but there’s 2 theme songs specially composed for TLD, 16 emotive background tracks, and multiple sound effects included into the build to create an immersive experience!

I’ve been working hard on Zayn’s demo route, and it’s almost done! I’ll be editing the script, adding in sound effects and perfecting the story mood with the right background tracks in the next two weeks or so. I hope to send our script out for proofreading sometime next weekend, so fingers crossed!

[ourdecemberdreams]

Hey guys!

Here are some screenshots from The Last December’s currently in the work demo! I’m sorry for the delay, but it will be out soon (I know I say this every time... but I hope it’s true too this time!) Reason for the lack of update is because I got my sister to help with alpha reading a while back and she gave me some really constructive comments, so I’ve been working hard in the past 3 months or so (I’m a slow writer hahah) to improve the story. The new demo will also feature some really awesome music pieces ;)

Below are the progress bars for the different segments in the demo:

7th April 2018

Hey guys!

How’s your April so far? I hope it has been good! I’ll keep this post short because I just want to give you guys a small update before posting up our updated mini demo (lots have been added/changed since the last one). You can expect new UI and a much longer playtime with more meaningful choices to be made. It will however, be using placeholder art, since we’re not quite done with our new character and background art yet. Will also probably be posting up new character profiles... soon heh.

About the NaNoRenO project with my friends, it has been put to a halt so I can’t post it up like I promised, sorry! We will (hopefully) still be working on it and get it done within our own timeline. That’s all for now!

14th March 2018

Hey guys! Happy 2018~ (sorry for being missing for so long) I know, I know, it has been a long time since an update *embarrassed* but that doesn’t mean I’m not working on Last December! Quick update, we’ve discussed and improved the story plot during the past few months, some of the game features have also been improved, so more impactful choices will be added into the game, with some mini games in between.

We’ve also changed our sprites and background artist. So we’re going to have redo all our art assets from scratch, but I’m not worried, because I’m sure they will be able to provide us with some really amazing art! I’ll post something up once we’re done with it.

Annnnnd, the new demo I promised to post up... I will get it done soon! *hides* I’ve been far too lazy to code, not to lie. But I will get it done soon! New year, new me heh.

Last but not least, I wanna let you guys know, that some friends and I have decided to come together and work on a short project for this year’s NaNoRenO! The story will be cyberpunk themed, and it’s already in progress. We don’t have a title yet (we’re bad with names), but when it’s done, I’ll let you guys know, incase anyone’s interested :3

[ourdecemberdreams]

Hey guys! I’m finally done with the gui and new logo! Here’s some sneak peeks of the new design while I work with the codes hohoho. I’ll be updating the demo soon after I’m done with the codes, in the meantime, try out our WIP demo v.2.0 at itch.io if you still haven’t!

[ourdecemberdreams]

So I think it’s time for some updates! ;) Recently, I’ve recruited 2 new authors (let’s hope they stay with us), and we’re currently working on the common route, Zayn’s route, and Ethan’s route respectively. A lot editing still need to be done, but we’ll get there eventually XD I’ve also been working on editing the gui these few days. This will take a while, since I’m not much of a designer, but I’m determined to come up with something better haha. I have a friend who’s kind enough to help me try and figure out how to animate the main menu background, so yippee! Art assets are on hold at the moment. Our sprite/cg artist got some personal issues to take care of, and for backgrounds, I would like to compile and finalise everything before getting more, so yeah. No worries, since we have almost everything we need now anyways. For music, there’s some music quality and music sheets issues between the composer and our lyricist :/ But I’m sure I’ll get it figured out soon enough.

sneak peek of our characters~ ;)

THE LAST DECEMBER The Last December is about an 18 year old girl with lung problems, who doesn’t have much time left to live. Tired of the treatments and medicines that didn’t help save her, she decides to escape the hospital to complete her bucket list with the help of some of her new found friends. 

Join them, as they all grow and discover new things in life while helping the girl fulfil her dying wishes, which includes some things like riding a motorbike, watching the sunrise, having her first kiss and visiting the amazing town of Cornucopia!

December Our main protagonist who have had lung problems since young and has spent a large part of her life staying in the hospital. Growing up in a strict family, she wasn’t allowed to do anything they deemed bad for her. She was brought up to become afraid to try new things. After finding out she doesn’t have much time left, she decided to, for once, pick up the courage to try the things she wanted to do but was never allowed to do and never dared to do. She sets on a journey to complete her bucket list before leaving the world.

Zayn A 19 year old boy who broke both his arm in a car accident. Having no sense of personal space, he’s flirty, egoistic, fun and playful. As an aspiring artist, the accident didn’t just break his arm, but his dream as well. Unable to draw anymore, he was going to give up on his life when he meets December and decides to help the dying girl fulfil her bucket list before her time is up.

??? ? year old boy who finds himself making sacrifices that he regrets. Mysterious and aloof, he’s unwilling to reveal much about himself. He’s street smart and used to going around by himself, but December and Zayn sticked around for much longer than he intended them to and he just can’t seem to shake them off. While unintentionally (or so he say) helping the duo, he learns to start making the right decisions himself.

Skylar December's 24 year old new primary doctor. Kind, smart and mature. A fresh graduate from university who is filled with passion to make the world a better place. He strives to help the girl stay alive even when she believes that there's no hope left for her condition. He does his best for December, even if it means to go against the hospital rules.

Ethan December's classmate and eye-candy since young. Cute and extremely shy introvert who never dared to speak to December despite having known her for 15 years. He’s musically talented and one of the top students every year. While December help him pick up his courage, he helps her with her dying wishes.

7th June 2017

Hi guys. So, many things happened in the past 2 weeks. Long story short, this is no longer a two sisters indie studio. It’s now a one man show, but no worries, I will still be working on The Last December. Though, it will now take much longer to finish the game than initially planned. I’m sorry for the delay, but I hope you guys can stay with me while patiently waiting for the release of The Last December :)

I’ll be posting up a sneak peek of all our important characters soon, do look forward to it! (I personally really like how Zayn and Ethan look like <3)

Other than that, progress will probably be slow the next few weeks, since I’m currently busy with assignments from school. I am looking for new writers to help continue on with the story, but it will take some time as well. If you’re interested in writing for The Last December, please do contact me through Tumblr message or email me at [email protected]. You can also contact me through any of the following platforms:
