Hello, everyone!

We were having a bit of trouble properly syncing the audio on the video last week. Thankfully we’ve figure it out!

Here’s a teaser of Alexandra’s prologue (part of one scene) which you’ll be able to play in the demo once we’ve debugged it.

Just a short re-cap: Alexandra Valente (a.k.a. Valeria Shaw) is one of four protagonists in the game. Alebrijes will feature two routes played/seen through her eyes. Her fate, of course, will be on the player’s hand as every decision will have a consequence; ever action… a price!

What do you think of the new art and the scene? Is there anything you’re interested in seeing? Is you have any questions, feel free to send us an ask!

Hello everyone!

Apologies for the delays. This week we’re sharing an extract of Altaire’s prologue. To give some context: Altaire is unconvinced Nina Blaire’s took her own life and breaks into her apartment to investigate. Depending on your choices, you may or may not get an insight. The game is further complicated by the addition of “false insights” as well, which can occur when you investigate two objects that might lead you to incorrect assumptions.

Like Alexandra, Altaire is one of our four protagonists. Be sure to check out his profile to learn more!

Hello everyone! This week we’re sharing Eva Guthrie’s character chart. This one was the most fun just because you really get a sense of Eva’s quirky personality. Just check out some of the ways in which she views others. According to her perception, Scott Lee is jealous of her and she holds authority over him.

What do you think?

Altaire Wolfe | Character Chart

Hello everyone!

This week we’re sharing Altaire’s character chart! With this, you’ll be able to tell how he connects and relates to other characters in the game. Which also means that these connections are how he personally views the people surrounding him. So if one of the connections doesn’t coincide with a connection shown in another character chart, then you already know there’s a discrepancy based on perception.

Hello everyone!

I hope you’re having a great week so far! As promised, here’s another sample of several ITEM CGs. The ones on the left are new ones, while the ones on the right are a better version of ITEM CGs we had originally included in the demo.

OVERLAY DESIGN | ITEM CGs

Hello everyone!

Apologies for not updating anything yesterday. We once again had technical issues (no internet). Regardless, the update for this week is about the changes in the interface regarding how we’ll deal with “Item CGs”. These are cues or important clues you’ve unlocked or gathered throughout the game.

Rather than the CG taking over the entire screen like we’d done originally, we’ve changed it so it integrates into the scene in a more stylish way. We’ve also polished most of the Item CGs used in the demo (which are so many).

Here we have a comparison of an ITEM CG from each of the four routes. The ones from Altaire and Alex were simply polished, but overall seem very similar to their original ones. The ones from Eva and Seb show a bigger change in regards to how they are presented. We’re aiming for semi-realism so it goes with the new style.

We’ll show more ITEM CGs next week!

EXAMPLE CG | ALTAIRE

Hello everyone!

So updating the blog every Friday turned out to be more problematic than anticipated. So we’re going back to the regular schedule of updating every Wednesday to ensure we don’t fail to meet the deadline anymore!

This week, we’re sharing Altaire Wolf’s new CG.

Like with Alexandra, we opted for a more dynamic scene this time, ensuring the colors aligned with the CGs from the other characters. The original scene showed Altaire being comforted by his older brother Damien. We focused on the “aftermath” of Damian’s beating at his father’s hands.

But when we were re-working the CGs, we also changed the approach. This time, we see the brother’s preparing for a beating, with Damian pushing Altaire behind him in an effort to protect him from the monster that has just walked through the door. We wanted to focus on the fear and the hopelessness of the situation, which fits better with the narrative, as Altaire remembers the pain of his father’s presence. 

EXAMPLE CG | ALEXANDRA

Hello everyone!

Apologies for the late update, we have been having technical difficulties since yesterday. This week, we’re sharing Alexandra Valente’s new CG.

We remade the scene to make it more dynamic as well as to have the colors be cohesive between all the CGs and across the routes. We also wanted to get a more claustrophobic feeling to the scene.

EXAMPLE CG | SEB

Hello everyone!

Apologies for not updating the blog last Friday. Life got in the way. This week, we’re sharing Sebastian Cabot’s new CG. We actually opted for discarding the idea for his previous CG in favor of this one. Partly because with the previous version you would’ve had to play his route a certain way to get it, unlike with the other three main characters. But mostly because this new CG gave a glimpse into an important part of his demo. 

EXAMPLE CG | EVA

Hello everyone! Happy 2019!

I apologize for being MIA. We are still working on updating the remaining art for the game, which includes the CGs and Item CGs. I’ll be updating the blog every Friday from today onwards!

Having said that, this week we’re sharing Detective Evangeline Guthrie’s demo CG. Out of the four main characters, Eva’s CG was the closest to the original in terms of content and composition.

I hope you’re having a great week so far! As promised, here’s another sample of several ITEM CGs. The ones on the left are new ones, while the ones on the right are a better version of ITEM CGs we had originally included in the demo.
