Hello everyone! Welcome to another update to the progress of the Royal Duality Project! We're a little late updating because of the Bank Holiday in the UK, but we had a nice restful time (and a productive time too!)
VA: The initial fruits of our labour... check out one of our first character trailer right here! It's Sirius, our half-human, half-incubus, all fun-loving friend. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EGKGYero1Au6BG5wdZ_2qr0vumqEX6iv/preview
Meanwhile, our sound editors are cutting down all of our recorded lines and preparing them for the game itself, this is a pro-longed process, but our sound editors put tender loving care into every snippet of dialogue they trim down and perfect :)
GRAPHICS: We've finished all of our sprites for Act 1 from a colouring and alt pose perspective! This has been a really wonderful experience, seeing all the characters come to life in glorious technicolour! We've also spruced up the UI so it matches the game's visual style. Take a look at our screenshots below
CODING: We've just completed the alpha coding for Act 1 Scene 1! Wooo hooo! We'll be reaching out to our content checkers soon so they can tell us if the content is safe and effectively communicating what we need - then the alpha testers will be ready to do their stuff and check for technical bugs. :)
It's a production heavy time for Royal Duality, the game's release date may be pushed out a little, but only in the interest of making a superb and quality product that everyone can enjoy.
That's it, Hyakuten signing off with tea and biscuits at the ready! :)
