Jock Studio Development Update #23!
Fellow Olympians, it’s time for another Jock Studio Development Update, featuring news & previews from what the team has been up to over the past month! Please read the full content of the update, as it contains news for all fans of Jock Studio and BLits Games!
Let’s dive straight into our Twenty-third Development Diary, showcasing updates from our various departments and what they’ve been working on since our last update!
Starting off, we have an exciting new preview from the background department – our concept artist, Sana, has been working closely with Zael and Zemyx to work on the second, and equally as important, map for the world of Jock Studio – Olympus City! Check out a concept sketch below, revealing the full city for the first time:
Now that’s quite the crazy looking city! Revealed in full for the first time, Olympus City is the home of the aptly named Olympus University and is a core part of Jock Studio’s gameplay! Starting on the Fourth Week of the game, you will gain access to Olympus City, taking your fellow Jocks on dates, searching for items, seeking sidequests, and more!
To make your exploration easier, Olympus City is divided into zones, some of which you’ve already seen some previews for! Check out a quick summary of each zone below:
Olympus University – The campus of our favorite school, and the main place you’ll be spending your time in game!
Santomarino & Mythokos – The two beach-side areas of the town, full of tourist traps, restaurants, hotels and more! We’ve already previewed a few locations from here!
The Agora – A massive shopping complex filled with big-box stores, collectible shops, fine dining and more!
Business District – Where all the fancy stuff happens – as well as some of the shady stuff too. Home to the city’s famous Red Light District!
Acropolis– A nature-filled, fun location to exercise, see some sites, or maybe even have a special festival or two…
Each of these zones will be visitable inside of Jock Studio, and just like Olympus University, each will have their own set of travelable locations with plenty of things to do! You can look forward to more previews of the City Map as we continue working on it, as well as previews of the various locations around the city in future development updates!
Finally, to wrap-up this development diary, we’ve previewed tons of different side character concepts over the last few development updates in their casual attire, as well as shown off the main Jocks in a special Toga attire, which will be used in the Festival Stretch Goal Arc of the game!
But what if the side characters also had Toga outfits? Good news, they do! Check out a preview of the Toga Attire for the side characters, worked on by Zael, AlexW and Magia, below!
Everyone’s looking festive in their own unique ways – and they can even rival the Jocks when it comes to handsomeness! Each of the above side characters will play a crucial role in the Jock’s stories inside the Festival Arc, which will be revealed in the main game!
These aren’t the only new costumes for our side characters too, but we’ll save the rest for a future development update! Stay tuned!
There are a few other updates, but theyre a bit too SPICY to include here, so you'll have to visit the full update on our website here!
