WHO’S MORE LIKELY TO? LI EDITION #2
Previous edition
Imagine if you will 5 five boys (oioi) sat in a circle playing who’s more likely to ~
Playing: Teddy, Isaac, Eren, Kit and Finn.
Random prompts from: https://develop-your-oc.tumblr.com/ (Check them out~!)
1) Who's more likely to say they’ll do something tomorrow, but never does?
Teddy: "Kit"
Isaac: "Yeah"
Kit: "What the fu-?"
Finn: "Yeah, I agree"
Kit: "WHAT DO YOU MEAN?! I am a man of action - never once have I ever and I mean EVER-"
Teddy: "Did you put the bin out like I asked?"
Isaac: "Did you finish or even start your donation bag of crap from your room?"
Finn: "How's that YouTwo channel doing that you said you would upload to at least twice a week?"
Kit: "..."
Kit: "Touché~"
2) Who's more likely to have an unconventional pet?
Kit: "Isaac"
Finn: "What? Isaac has never had a pet, especially not an unconventional one -"
Kit: "Of course, he has a pet"
Finn: "Wha-"
Kit: "He has you~"
Finn: "..."
Kit: ;)
3) Who is more likely to cook their eggs in a very specific way?
Finn: "Eggs?... Oh, Eren!"
Isaac: "Yeah, Eren doesn't like runny eggs. He only likes them scrambled or as an omelette-"
Eren: "-Or in pancakes"
Eren: "...I like pancakes"
4) Who is more likely to forget to eat?
Isaac: "Teddy, for sure"
Teddy: "I don't forget per say I simply get caught up in my work-"
Isaac: "And forget..."
Teddy: "..."
Kit: "Mum, dad... please don't fight - think of the children"
Finn & Eren: (｡•́︿•̀｡)
5) Who is more likely to take fashion very seriously?
Teddy: "Kit... obviously"
Finn: "Why obviously?"
Kit: "Well, obviously it isn't you - Mr. Perma-Hoodie"
Finn: ヽ(ー_ー )ノ
6) Who is more likely to ask a lot of questions?
Finn: "What does that even mean? Like what amount of questions would qualify as a lot? Three? Maybe four? What do you guys think?"
Everyone: "..."
Finn: "What?"
7) Who is more likely to be a good neighbor?
Teddy: "Hmm..."
Finn: "That's difficult...what is we do it as roommates instead so we can ans-"
Teddy: "From the perspective of our actual neighbors - Kit receives at least three delivers a day, Finnegan is too loud, Isaac doesn't like lending people things and I'm rarely home to be even considered a true neighbor so by process of elimination - Eren is the superior candidate"
Everyone: "..."
Teddy: "I distributed neighbor feedback forms a year into our tenancy so I could determine what we need to work on as a household"
Kit: "Nerd"
8) Who is more likely to have a crush on a fictional character?
Isaac: "Finn... the amount of times I have had to endure him absolutely gushing over some martial arts character called... oh god what was it?"
Finn: "Lady Vice from Immortal Annihilation? No, I don't think I have a crush on her more like... an undying infatuation"
Kit: "Is that the half-naked lady on the poster above your bed-?"
Finn: "She's not half naked... wait, how did you - STAY OUT OF MY ROOM!!"
9) Who is more likely to need to be in constant contact with someone?
Eren: "Teddy..."
Everyone "..."
Eren: "Your always on your phone... so I thought... nevermind"
Isaac: "No your right, bud. Teddy needs to constantly be available to his boss so he frequently prioritizes his phone over one on one conversation with his friends-"
Teddy: "We already spoke about this, Isaac-"
Finn: "Ah, they're fighting again... {{ (>_<) }}"
10) Who is more likely to have trust issues?
Kit: "Isaac - for sure"
Isaac: "And what could you possibly mean by that?"
Kit: "Okay, Iz - Do you trust Finn and I to make tonight's dinner?"
Isaac: "Trust issues and having the desire to not be poisoned are too completely different things..."
Finn: "Why did you have to drag me into that...? (-_-)"
Isaac: "Finn, if it helps I don't think you'd be doing the poisoning"
Finn: (o^▽^o)
Kit: " So easily pleased"

See ya next time ~

A long overdue update
Oh, hello there!
Terribly sorry for the inactivity on here but as per my previous 'birthday post' I promise my lack of updates isn't due to procrastinating (a pleasant surprise). I have actually made a lot of progress on the game! It just seems to be a bit of a snails pace regarding dev updates as I have been streaming my dev sessions on twitch. So additionally I have been downloading and editing compilations of clips from said VODs to make a devlog for the YT but alas doing your own video editing is modern day self-inflicted torture so yes - not enjoyable.
Anyway pity party aside here is a short list of fairly recently achieved dev milestones according to my trello.
Obviously some of these might not make any sense to you yet but one day soon you may know more 'Eren's pink drink' ;)
Additionally these are some things worked on or being worked on via dev streams if anyone is interested.
Catch you in the next dev update <3

20/04 progress update
Hello and welcome to my first tumblr progress update for The Heiress Project’. I would like to make it clear that just because this is my first progress update does not mean that this is the only work I have done on the game thus far. The trello board I have for this project is fully fleshed out with a small amount of cards in done but most of my planning and preparation have been completed. The only reason I haven't disclosed anything previously is because I want to ensure that the development progress on this game is as spoiler free as possible. I will definitely be divulging minute details on the characters but I will try not to state to much regarding the stories or romance routes that will be in the game. Anyway with that all aside, let’s get on with it!
Sketched and designed game logo
Early in the afternoon I had a small idea about a potential game logo and so I loaded up my procreate on my iPad and got sketching...
I know it currently looks like a mess but bear with me - I had a vision and I thought I’d justify it’s existence with a sketch at least.
The crown/tiara (whatever this thing is technically called) is supposed to represent the MC and her Heiress origins. Then I decided to do some flower research for the boys as the idea crossed my mind to associate each one of them with their own flower. I thought that the appearance of each flower can correlate to their own but the flowers also have their own meanings or personalities.
Teddy is a Lilium candidum also known as the Madonna lily, or white lily. The appearance of these are one of sophistication used often for both weddings and funerals it is a flower that is appropriate for many circumstances. The Lily also happens to be one of the most popular flowers in the horticulture trade. The Floriography (language) of the Lily is: Sweetness and purity.
Isaac is a currently a Red Rose. I say currently as I am debating changing him to a Peony. Initially, I put him a single red rose as to me they are a symbol of classic romance and Isaac is this projects Tsundere, which is a classic archetype of a love interest in an otome game. A single red rose is not only beautiful and romantic but it’s floriography literally means ‘I love you’. You may think “Well damn, that makes sense. Why would she want to change it?”, that is because, well... it’s boring, overdone and generic. It IS a symbol of classic romance but I don’t want to label Isaac’s route or romance as something that may have been done before. Yes, he is a tsundere but... he’s my tsundere, god damn it. If I were to change him to a peony (a less classic flower of love) the appearance would still fit his tsundere archetype as a ‘blushing flower’ but it’s floriography is: Happy marriage, prosperity and bashfulness. So...it works in my mind.
Eren is a Chaenomeles japonica also known as Japanese quince or a Maule’s quince. I kind of went off on my own on this one. Eren’s flower is a climbing one, hence why it clings to the centre spike of the crown and sits proudly on top. The Japanese quince specifically is a thorny shrub with red flowers and yes that was THORNY before any of you get any ideas, it’s not what you think...or is it?. Eren’s flower is the only one I had not heard of prior to my research, it doesn’t have an extensive floriography and the only thing it could find was about the flowering quince which is the family in which this particular quince belongs to. The word that I found was ‘rebirth’ whether that correlates to Eren story or not - I wont say much other than yes, it does.
Kit is a Syringa vulgaris otherwise known as a Lilac. It’s a soft sort of purple or, one might say, lilac in colour and it’s floriography means ‘The first emotion of love’. Kit’s archetype is the ‘Playboy flirt’ meaning immediately upon meeting MC she is ‘exactly his type’ and will romantically attempt to pursue her from the get go. So I feel like this flower fits quite well, whether that is all there is to this flower or the man who possesses it, you’ll just have to see.
Finn is a Helianthus otherwise known as a sunflower a very bright, happy yellowish gold flower. There are two types of sunflowers when it comes to the floriography, there’s dwarf with: Adoration and pride and tall with: false riches and pride. I have not yet determined the actual height of any of the boys yet but I definitely wouldn't pin him as the tallest of the group not that height should have anything to do with it, of course. Although, Finn is the youngest of the group and I would say adoration would definitely work better that false riches and pride is present in both flowers as well as Finn’s romance route. The adoration mainly comes in the form of Finn having love and respect for the rest of the boys especially his cousin Teddy as he is someone he looks up to. That adoration would in turn eventually include MC.
Developed backstory for referenced 'Earl & I'
The Earl & I is going to be a story referenced within this games story. Within the The Heiress Project word ‘The Earl & I: Eternal Hearts’ is our MC’s and her friend's favourite romance.
Worked on some of Finn's route
When I say ‘worked’ I mean I did some bullet points that will be fleshed out in his romance route eventually.
Started developing art-style
This is a fun one. I wouldn’t call myself an artist. I appreciate art - love art even and I draw, I always have but I wouldn’t call myself an artist. So, now that it has come to thinking about what kind of art style I will be going for - I feel like a pebble in an ocean of endless possibilities as there are just so many. I’ve always loved anime and manga one of the first artbooks I got was Mastering Manga with Mark Crilley and I love and still have that book. But I feel like I want something deeper and more personal in my art style for this game. I spent about 30 minutes late last night developing an anime eye in procreate purely to see if I could.
It’s not great. Not terrible but also not great. It’s a start at least but it’s gonna be one heck of a hill for me to climb.
Finalised in-game location name and setting
Once you press that sacred start button in The Heiress Project start screen you will transported to the lovely historic but booming town of Austen-Upon-Eden a scenic large town/small city situated on the River Eden in no specific country. I myself live in England so I would be lying if I said that this place isn’t influenced by any great English towns or cities but I also like to think that this game has it’s own little world too. My partner gave me the name Bronte after we decided on a river Eden (So, Bronte-Upon-Eden) as he said the Bronte sisters were great authors of romance and I agreed then I thought that I hadn’t read much of the Bronte's myself (I will work on changing that) but I do know Jane Austen very well. So working together we discovered Austen-Upon-Eden.
Anyway, that’s all from me today. Hope this helped you shine a little light into my current project and I’ll hopefully see you in the next one~ peace <3
