Bedroom/Attic for Charlotte and Bathroom/Living Room for Nael please! ^_^

Hi anon! Thanks a ton for sending in an ask!

[here’s the link for questionaire! send us a character and a room :)]

Bedroom: (Charlotte!)

How does this character sleep? (Position, sleeping habits, bedtime routines): As for bedtime routine, she doesn’t really have one! (nor does she see the use of it). After a long day of excessive hard work and an intolerable school day, Charlotte usually goes to her room and falls right to sleep. As for the position, it’s a bit embarrassing. There’s lots of hair in her mouth and she doesn’t look very peaceful at all. (We love her for who she is tho you do you Charlotte)

What are their pyjamas like?: If she doesn’t sleep in her uniform, she has a cute little night-gown. Like this!

It’s a very special gift from her father..

What do they dream about usually?: Memories of her and a family that was once her own. Sometimes distorted, but usually true to reality… She also has quite the fantasy-loving spirit! So fairytales usually re-surface in her dreams.

How neat/tidy is this character?: She’s very tidy! (Not because she wants to be, but because she’s forced to be) I wouldn’t say she’s a neat-freak, not in the slightest. But she has developed a habit over the years for keeping things neat.

How affectionate is this character?: Although she’s very loving, she is not very affectionate. She will love you to the moon and back but she’s too shy to show it. If someone was to make her blush, she’d deny it like no tomorrow and make every excuse possible. If she trusts them enough though… It’s likely that she’ll be a bit bolder!

Bathroom: (Nael)

How does the character prepare in the morning?: He has a very glamorous morning routine, tbh. he bathes, puts on perfume, clean clothes, needs PERFECT hair and fur and I mean PERFECT. If his nails look bad that requires a fix as well. This is all fine and dandy but the problem is he refuses to do anything or go anywhere without being done with his routine. He’s……. very extra.

Do they sing in the shower?: If showers existed in this timeline, yes, he would totally sing in the shower.

What kind of hair product/make-up do they use?: I wouldn’t be surprised if he wore eyeliner. And, canonly, he has long black cat claws! Which have definitely been painted.

How clean is this character?: Depends on what you mean by clean… If you mean clean as in not dirty, then he’s very clean. If you mean as in neat and tidy, not really. He has lots of stuff lying around in no particular order, it’s quite messy!

Does the character have thousands of shampoo/shower gel bottles by the shower, or do they use only the bare essentials?: He would use quite a lot because he would want the pretty bottles and they smell nice. Once again, if showers existed in this timeline!

bonus: Attic (Charlotte!)

bc I really liked this one haha and still wanted to do it haha

What is the character afraid of?: Lots of things! Losing the people she loves, going blind, needles… But she’d never tell you any of them, not in a million years!

How do they deal with bad memories?: If it’s sad, she’ll cry it away and into her pillow. If it makes her angry, she’ll try to blow of steam by taking a walk or climbing a tree. Writing about things– just random things– tends to do the trick as well.

What is this character’s role in a horror movie?: I hate to be predictable, but she’d probably be a resourceful heroine! I imagine her being the one who pulls everyone together when they’re freaked out, despite being just as scared herself. She comes up with a plan, and tries her best to keep everyone safe! (Either that or the comic relief)

How do they hide their secrets?: Living in an unloving and abusive home, she’s come to learn how to keep her actions under-wraps.

Which of the Seven Deadly Sins does the character relate to most?: Hm… probably envy! For good reason, I believe.

The voice of our mystery girl has been decided! Welcome to the team, Rindre!

[project-cadeau]

THANK YOU!

(WE ARE NO LONGER LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS! YOU CAN FIND OUT ABOUT OUR DAZZLING TEAM HERE

Keep in mind that this is solely for volunteers meaning no cash can be given. I apologize if this is an inconvenience to anyone.

Your work will be fully credited. That being your name at the top of a document within the demo and full game files, a shoutout/meet the team mention on this blog under (TEAM), and your name/handle in the end credits of the game.

Cadeau is in need of proper CG’s, character busts, and sprites! With an artist, this will be possible-- and we’ll be able to get rid of the ugly placeholders and fill them with beautiful artwork provided by you!

If you are an artist that can draw characters in an anime/manga-esque style, (think Sailor Moon or Yuri On Ice), and/or can draw environments and objects-- then please come forward!

I am versatile regarding style, high or low detail-- minimal or lots of shading-- however thick lines are not exactly ideal. If you aren’t sure, then please send me a message! I would absolutely love to see your work.

Shown by this cool kid awkwardly grasping a violin-- musicians need to come forward!

Cadeau is sounding a bit dull without a proper soundtrack! A musician will fill Cadeau with riveting songs that will raise emotion where it’s needed most, and leave us all with beautiful sounds to listen to even after we finish the game!

You will be asked for about 3 10-12 second loops, and perhaps 3-5 full songs.

If you can produce classical/fairytale like music, (for example: Kevin Macleod’s Fairytale Waltz) then please step forward!

Cadeau has a range of characters that need voices of their own! I am looking for little sounds, like laughter and gasps that will give our cast some extra life.

I am looking for 2 childish “feminine” Medium-toned and higher-toned.

& 1 childish “boyish” voice. Higher-toned.

(For more info on what voices are needed, please PM me or email me at the following. I want to keep character information discreet.)

For applications/questions message me at:

@project-charlottesdream

or email me at [email protected] 

Before messaging me, please keep in mind that I will need an example of your work. That being a few pieces of yours or a link to your website/blog where I can browse your work. 

Thank you so much for following the development of Cadeau!

Nothing is as it seems, my dear.

Here are a couple maps that I put together. The first one is fairly new...

[project-cadeau]

Charlotte is awoken, surrounded by rubble and dust. She is all alone once again...

But is she really..?
