First devlog! (General gist of the project)

Hey folks!

Welcome to the devlog page for our visual novel, “Pressure Points”! In it, we follow our doberman protagonist in his taxing day-to-day life, and his newly-found alter ego, activated by those stressors. This will be a short story (about 5 scenes), released in a single, fully completed update.

As of now, we do not have a defined schedule for posts, but we should have something resembling that by the end of this month. So far, here is where we are at with various parts:

Script/dialogue:

• All scenes (1-5) rough drafted; currently in the works of revising them before programming polishes them.

Sprites:

• Scenes 1-3 complete
• Scene 4 currently in progress

CG’s:

• Scenes 1-3 complete
• Scene 4 currently in progress

Music:

• Scene 1 complete
• Scene 2 currently in progress

SFX:

• Scenes 1-2 complete
• Waiting to tackle Scene 3 until Scene 2 Music is complete

UI/Menus:

• Still in initial phases; have completed essentials such as save files and in-game menu.

VFX:

• Still need to start; stage directions listed in coding comments, but nothing finite yet.

The original goal was to have this out by the end of summer (September 21st), but this deadline may be pushed back, depending on how our rough draft pans out. We will continue to provide more info, as well as some teasers, in our future posts.

Until then, thanks for your interest, and stay tuned!
