Kill Hollywood

Hey everyone! Long time no see!

I hope everyone’s doing while I’m gone for a year on Tumblr lol

Other than that, I have some important announcements to make:

1. This blog will now be retooled as an art account where I post my own illustrations, sketches, WIPs, etc as well as reblogging others’ art related posts. I’ve been holding off of posting art on Tumblr until now since I wasn’t confident with my skills, but here we are right now! Below is a list of links where you can follow me outside of Tumblr:

Instagram

Toyhouse

Artfight

Do note that my posting schedule is inconsistent due to IRL stuff going on and school, so if you see me not post for weeks or months, you’ll know why ^^;

2. My side blog @bleedinghollywood ​ will no longer be active. Ever since I went on a long hiatus, I’ve been getting into more fandoms, which led me to lose some interest in Red Embrace Hollywood. Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy this game. But trying to maintain a side blog for a specific fandom ended up stressing me out as I start prioritizing other things to do. Will I return to that blog someday? Who knows? Maybe the release of Red Embrace: Paradisus might get me to post one or two stuff in there. In the meantime, I will not post any more content on the Red Embrace: Hollywood side blog.

So yeah, that’s all I have to say so far! Can’t wait to share what I have in store! ^_^

The closed REM beta is taking place this Sunday!

Upcoming Beta Test!

Red Embrace: Mezzanine is about to enter the beta testing phase!

We’ve currently got it scheduled from the 20th-26th, distributing Steam keys to our lovely beta testers who choose to participate! Since it’s our first release in Unity, there’ll probably be some various unforeseen bugs that we’ll need our testers’ help to catch!

Our Throne-tier patrons on the Argent Games Patreon will have access to the beta, so if you’re interested in playing it early (and getting your name in the credits), we’d love to have you join! <3

Progress Update

We’ve squashed a number of pesky bugs this week and are working on the final main programming bits–namely GUI and the save/load system. Here’s a general progress update!

Writing: 100%

Music/Sound: 100%

Art: 94%

Programming: 80%

Extras/Polish: 50%

Still on target for our July release!

Weekly Dev Stream

Tomorrow, we’ll be doing a dev stream at our usual time: 0730PST/1030EST! We hope you’ll stop by to join us. :)

Mod Corvid Reaven’s Note: I was away at the time when this update was posted on AG’s own blog (June 18), so I ended up posting it on this Tumblr today. The stream is already done, but you can still watch the video on Twitch!

I am sorry for my grammar mistakes. English isn’t my first language.

-

As a Golgotha you can never have normal dreams. Either you mind plays tricks with you, or others are trying to invade you dream or rather they are invading it. Tonight is not one of those days. Yet still you don’t have a nice dream. Not today.

You are on the battlefield with a gun in you hand. Everything around you are on fire. Gunshots, screaming and explosions. A bullet fly by you. It was just an inch from hitting you. You can’t stand there, but your legs don’t want to move. No matter how hard you try you cannot move. You don’t want to die. Not yet. Right then there was another shot…

You rise up and take a deep breath. Even you are basically dead sometime the human instinct will never fade. You close your eyes and try to calm down. You look around to distract yourself a little bit. The curtains are fully closed yet it’s still a bit bright in the room.

You hear rustling beside you. “What’s wrong?” asks Randal sleepily. It been a while since you are living with Randal. The bed is not big, and Randal is not the shortest person. Still you managed to sleep in this tiny bed. You mostly lying on Randal most of the time. “Nothing just a nightmare. Sorry for waking you up.” He sits up. “It’s alright. But are you gonna be fine?” He looks worried at me. You would have said that you would be fine, but you don’t think you could go to sleep after that. “I just need time to calm down a little.” Randal says nothing. He gets closer to you. “What are you planni-” Before you could finish your sentence Randal hugs you. There is no warmth around you body, but the firm grip let you feel save. “You don’t have to worry. I am here for you.”.

You hug him back and you heart warm up. “Thank you, Vandal.” He lets you go and stares at you “Did you really have to call me that now.” You giggle “You wouldn’t think you would be the only one to lighten up the mood, would you?” He puts his big bright smile on. “ I cannot win against you; can I? But you know what I can still make go sleep with me” Suddenly he grabs you and throws both of you down onto the bed. “Now you are calmer now, let us sleep. It still too early to work for you.” “I know. I know.”

I went to Picrew and made my Red Embrace: Hollywood vampire ❤️

You have been warned

I have been thinking how MC's sire can be any house that fits MC.

There is a question that is quite interesting. Theoreticaly it would work. What if say Sire was either a gol or non clan.

We know those exist. Randal is an example.

It's clear that sire didn't just choose any human to turn. It may be his gol intincts or he really knew MC. So he get fitting house blood from a vampire. Let's say like Iscari. He takes it with him and when MC is ready to turn instead of giving his own blood he give MC someone else's where the house fits them more or more helpful for them.

Yes it's possible to gain power even by just consuming the blood. Thanks Lazarus.

That means it is possible for MC to be any house.

Now get this. Maybe that is the reason Sire doesn't want to meet us. Markus mentioned that the sire and their childe have a strong bond.

Note: Gn!Mav!MC x Heath, is after Andrei’s ending. Sooo…

Red Embrace and Red Embrace: Hollywood are games made by Argent Games.

They both play out in the same world just RE is happening in San Francisco and RE:H in L.A.

But there is a problem with their connection.

Their Cannon facts. Like the house names. In the RE:H are the house names worldwide know as shown with Evelynn and Quinying.

Or the treatment of Blood pets. In RE are treated as mindless puppets.

It has conflicts it each other, so there is no real connection for me to put together.

For the treatment of blood pets, I think it depends on who's in charge and what policies they have there. While Bishop treats blood pets like puppets, Saorise has a more humane policy in mind for them.
