Coming soon to a Desura near you!

Project Dualis is set for a Desura Release on Nov 1st, and will be featured on the popular Freedom Friday bundle. As before, it will be available for free on Win and Linux platforms but any donations are appreciated.

Hum, I guess that's everything. Maybe next time, I'll blog about the project I've been working on lately.

Now released!

It's done! Uhh... so? Just go and download it already. It's completely free and available on IndieDB.

Tell me what you think, and if you liked the work, feel free to leave a donation. All the money will go directly for the next project/s.

Long time no see?

This is only a small post before the official announcement, but I'm happy to say that Project Dualis will be ready to be released in mid-August, perhaps the 17th or 18th, since those are the dates of a local con, but maybe even a few days prior to that, if I get impatient for some reason. In the end, I feel like the whole game's a bit short and unpolished, yet it still took a few months short a full year to complete...

Anyway, big reveals are that:
-Fully voiced from main cast to narration
-Will be freely distributable, and the official sources are on indieDB and Desura.
-Donations will be accepted at this blog site, used directly for any future projects. (And that Miku Append figurine I've been dreaming of... Just kidding.)

Recent stuff.

I haven't really bothered to keep this blog up to date, so all the new stuff gets clumped in this one post. But here we go:
1.There's a new project page on indiedb, and plans to publish the game on Desura once it's ready.

2. DrawingNeko has finished her artwork on the project, and we're nearing completion overall.

3. A promo video is also out at: http://youtu.be/q9lmpJ01f_c



that's all for this time (as if anyone actually follows these) but let's just say i have a duty to record it for the future, when people will finally understand my greatness. (for sure!)

Characters

(To be updated with more pics)
Haru: A first-year student at Kakunoshima high. Our protagonist is snarky at times and a bit too smart for his own good. Though he has a tendency to dream big.
"If someone had stopped me to ask what I was actually doing, my answer would have been something along the lines of 'To seek solitude...' Apparently, I thought there was something cool about being alone."









Keita: Haru's classmate, self-proclaimed 'bro' and best friend from middle school. He's always on full power setting and a little annoying to be around, though he means well. Currently dreaming of setting up a school band.
"C'mon, it's you and me, bro. What do say?"

Yuki: The shy, silent and lonesome bookworm. She just has a bit of trouble communicating her feelings, but in fact she's surprisingly talkative and tends to dream even bigger than our protagonist.
 "Um, I just like to read..."/ "Plenty of other parts were missing as well. The girl had no legs, only her left arm was functioning properly and most importantly, she had no heart. The girl was mechanical, a machine." (a passage from her stories)












Yumi: The polar opposite of her sister, she's aggressive, realistic and straightforward. She appears strong on the outside, but she has only grown up that way, since she feels that she has to protect her sister.
"Huh? Got something to complain about?"

Current stuff

I wanted to have some sort of a ranting space and pretend that someone actually reads/cares about what I talk about here.
So, the first thing in order of ranting is the lack of any stock photography. blah blah, I want free stuff, more stuff for free. Well, there is some of it, but there's not enough keywords, so you have to dig through wall of irrelevancy to find something even remotely useful...
Royalty free music... though in this case the problem is that there's too much of great content, and you kinda want to put every possible song somewhere even if it doesn't really fit with the story...

Lack of everything... When I grow up, I want to have my own studio, where maids serve me coffee, while I write masterpieces, armies of artist cater to my every request... yeah. I've decided it, I can already see it... How about it? All donations go towards my fund of personal maids. Uh, no... I mean artwork... for making games and stuff.

Project Dualis

(How do you name a game anyways? If someone knows the art of naming, give me a call.) In short, Dualis is a dual-arc Visual Novel in the making. While there's romance, the main focus is on storytelling...

Synopsis: Yuki and Yumi are sisters with opposite personalities, but in reality the two are tied together a lot more closely than what it first seems. (Let's just say there's a bit of fiction mixed with reality.) Our protagonist, Haru joins the already disbanded literary club together with bookworm Yuki, but soon ends on a collision course with her overprotective sister...

The full version will include two story arcs, and three different endings (with a small number of shorter bad ends).The game is available on IndieDB for now, and will be released on Desura on 1st of Nov. While it's 100% free to play, any donations are accepted and will be used directly for future projects.

Artwork is completed, made by http://drawingneko.deviantart.com/. and JosephSeraph. The game will feature a soundtrack by Kevin Macleod, www.incompetech.com with mainly piano music, jazz and perhaps some chiptunes. Lastly the game is voiced by Samantha Chan and Christopher Escalante of the Voiceiyuu Team. (http://www.voiceiyuu.com/)
