Progress & Lockdown


So, as SR gets closer and closer to release (finally xD) I decided to update its page here and add some images with brief descriptions of each route just to cut down on the amount of text on the page and make it look tidier :3

As I wrote on the new description, I'm hoping to release by the end of May 2020 but it all depends if COVID-19 screws with things! I'm currently testing everything and it's going surprisingly well, haha. I thought I would find a lot more bugs but I guess I shouldn't jinx myself >.< 

Testing progress pretty much looks like this:

Menu Screens & CG Gallery - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended

Student Route - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended

Mage Route - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended - 1 character still missing voice lines

Clan Princess Route - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended

Detective Route - 100% - Playable and functioning as intended

Gamer Route - 10% - Playable, currently testing for major bugs 

Hidden route - 0% - Playable, testing for major bugs after Gamer Route - 1 character still missing voice lines

I'm undecided as to whether I should send the game out for a few people to test before releasing (which would further delay the release while I wait for their feedback and apply fixes), or just test to the best of my ability to eliminate all game breaking bugs and release a beta version sooner (which may contain spelling/grammatical errors and minor bugs) that everyone can help me test by submitting any errors they find to me and I'll just fix them as fast as I can and upload the updated version.

Aside from updating the page here I decided it was time to actually settle on a name to go by when creating my visual novels as the name I originally had here when creating my account was just something I came up with on the spot so I didn't have to think too much about it, haha. My new page is now: https://melancholy-marionette.itch.io/

I hope that anyone who reads this is doing okay, especially with what's going on in the world at the moment! Here in the UK we're on lockdown due to COVID-19 and I know that many places in the world are suffering right now. Wherever you are I hope that you manage to stay safe ^_^/

even tho im not into otome kind of stuff, ill still try out the game when it comes out and give you some feedback since i saw that ur planing on producing more games, and it could help a little.

 just know that there are a lot of people that stop working on their projects because of how tedious and time counsuming it is, so i really admire how u were able to work on this game for so long and still finish it(definately something i wouldnt be able to do). n for that i would really like to donate u some money since i feel like u deserve it, but unfortunately im poor rn so i cant really do much ,:/

Thank you for that :3 If you'd prefer to wait for one of the other versions if otome isn't your thing, then I'll probably have one or two of the other versions out by the end of the year :D it's just gonna take time to swap gender referencing lines around and change sprites for female Kuro etc. I'm not sure which version to work on first out of the remaining three though >.< 

I think when all versions of SR are done, I should probably finish CiQ since I already started it. After that though, I will likely start working on some other ideas I've had for a while!

Aww, that's sweet of you to say :3 I know the feeling, I'm permanently poor xD My stupid crappy mental health means I can't work a normal job, so I just make things (little accessories + design weird clothes) and sell them online, but with the lockdown I can't even do that cos I can't get to the post office >.< I wouldn't blame anyone for giving up on projects cos I nearly did a few times, haha. Sometimes it's torture and I just want it to end xD My family all think I'm insane for doing it all for free x3 I will attempt to make a Kickstarter campaign or something for future projects though cos I feel super awful that I can't even pay voice actors and stuff T_T

Stay safe!

I hope you stay safe as well and can't wait to play your game when it releases! It looks like it's going to be a really fun novel to read. ^^

Thank you :3 I'm in the middle of spelling and grammar checking at the moment and it's absolute torture xD I'm gonna try and get that bit over this weekend but it might spill into next week T_T It's taken me 2 weeks so far, haha.

I hope that you enjoy it when it's out :3 Stay safe!
