WEEKLY UPDATE!! 8/1/21
🕑 Added 2021-08-02 00:01:01 +0000 UTC(FYI, I'll be naming these posts "Weekly Update" from now on to avoid confusion when posting to other platforms. This should help differentiate these posts from a version update.)
I'm getting into the real meat of the update now. I'm continuing to script events and scenes and as it stands now, I'm a little over half-way done with this update overall. Scenes are coming out well so far, but I always replay these scenes a few times before I'm satisfied with their flow. Here's a shot from a scene that I really went back and forth on.
There's still work to be done with illustrations, but I finished the last character portrait this week! This is Rinaldo Sinclair, Mila's father and founder of Noctorna. His relevance to the overall story becomes much greater from this point on, so I felt it was necessary to draw him for not only the flashback scene, but potential future scenes as well.
And lastly, let me leave you with another neat quality of life change. This will be useful to those who want to complete their Picture Gallery. NPCs who give out quests or are contract clients now have a "..." balloon over their heads to nudge players to interact with them.
There are players who enjoy interacting with every NPC for either the dialogue or to see if there are potential rewards. However, I feel that if a players main goal is just to find side quests, it should be clearer as to which NPCs offer that. I hope this helps.
Anyway, that's all I have for this week. See all of you next week!
