#dev jp

So, as promised, i harassed my artist until art came out. These are also members of the main cast, in fact, the guy in the middle is in fact the main character, even if he’ll never get sprites and only shows up in those full screen photos cause he’s the protag. He can be a good or terrible person depending on your choices, so he looks kinda neutral. The girl on the left is the beloved childhood friend, but i didn’t want to go with the cliche tsundere, so she’s instead the captain of the kendo club so she can be the tomboy-ish strong but dumb character. Of course, she’s a love interest. The handsome specimen on the right isn’t. He’s instead your best friend, and is going to be a pretty fun guy, but i needed him laid-back for story reasons, so he because this guy in my head at some point. For those who may ask “But God-King JP, if this Fallen Pedals is supposed to be about your little sis, why do you have other love interests?” Because Fallen Pedals isn’t entirely about seducing your little sis like a creep (That’s still totally going to be there for those who make them choices) , but was originally based on being a brother, and shut-in brothers get teased by their little sisters. Also, there will be other love interests, and they will totally be fleshed out people too, and i will get art for them at some point, but these three have the triangle of friendship, and everyone knows triangles are the strongest shape. So clearly Miyuki and Ichigo will be important characters in most of the routes, even if you romance someone that isn’t your childhood friend. I’ll have something to post later this week.

Although i said dev updates will be Saturday, yesterday is going to be a exception because i enjoyed Friday a little too much and was therefore out of action Saturday. On to the dev update, ive planned most of the main story line, and just need to get everything sorted for coding. I apologise for yesterday, and will continue according to schedule.  

So, I decided to change my mind about making a separate blog for the game, cause it seemed too official and annoying. I’ll still see if SZ will make her own blog, but things are complicated there. The game will continue development as usual. I have a few things I want to share soon.

First dev update, but i’ve got nothing special for you all right now. at the moment we are mostly planning, but i should have everything needed to start coding and getting this drawn in 2 weeks. i’d have it sooner, but i have work to do during the day. ill get SZ to post more concept art this week.

Also, when i release my first dev update saturday, it’ll be in a separate blog from this one. I know, annoying, but SZ and I need a group blog so that we can both post things on the same blog, as well as be prepared for anyone else who may perhaps join the team.

For right now, the temporary VN name is “Fallen Pedals”. I can change this at anytime, but this is more to keep SZ happy. Speaking of SZ, A separate blog will be set up for her soon, so i’ll tell y’all when that’s a thing that has happened.

Howdy! Today I had an brilliant idea for a terrible visual novel! And so I decided to make a blog. Roped my friend SZ into being the artist, it’s her art that’s the header and the icon and such. I’ll make dev updates every week, and post random crap every so often.
