Everything is almost in! bear is also diligently starting to animate stuff!
New Jenna Expressions Concept Art

We're gonna be adding in some new expressions to Jenna that may look a little somethin' like these! Look forward to seeing these in some of the new dialogues.
New Overworld Style Concept


If you've been around for a bit, you'll know that we've been looking to replace the current pixel art RPGMaker-style characters with something that has a little more flexibility for us. We're gonna give it another try with a character that looks a little something like this.
We're also hoping to have it bone-animated like the CGs instead of frame-by-frame like the current character is animated. The animation concepts you see here are just references for that if things work out.
Overworld Animations Concept


This is another reason why we're trying to push for a more versatile character. We'd love to try and get some more fun animations for things like combat. Of course these won't replace CGs, but how can anyone complain about more lewds?
We'd love to hear your opinions on this sort of style for overworld characters versus the one we have now!

I’m loving the new overworld art style, Some may prefer the old one because they got used to it or whatever so i can see a solution where you can put a setting where you can choose which one you like, But also at the same time that may be a lot of work, I’m happy with any of them. Also i dont know if you hear this often but good job you guys are doing amazing work with coming up with new things I’m loving it.
Anduo Games
Thanks for your detailed opinion! :) We will not replace anything with overworld content. The post states this clearly. Also note that we are hiring additional art help to do things like this new overworld sprite style. We are currently not planning on any relationships in the game other than the main one. We might change our mind on that, but as of right now we are only planning on adding more lewd content where Jenna simply has fun with whomever, without a set partner.

Sadly I must admit that I while I like the new expressions the new overworld model is very jarring. Not only does it clash with the current art style but it doesn't even look like Jenna anymore. Overworld style lewd content is nice but one of the main reasons I support 3C is the amount of effort that goes into the main lewd content, the scenes/pin ups and such. After such a wonderful showing up till now I feel that overworld lewd content would be rather lacking when put up beside the pin ups not to mention the scenes. But I understand and respect the wishes of the creators and as long as the main lewd content is keeping the same art style I can live with it. After all 3C has some getting hotter/getting colder minigames that I hate but 1% doesn't destroy the 99%. I get annoyed at the combat sometimes but there is a skip tool. This is a lewd RPG, not an RPG with lewd. Sounds the same but there is a big difference and many lewd game makers hit the latter. 3C is the former and it does it so damn well that's why I support. A few last notes...well more like questions and musing really. There seems to be a few paths in the game. Pure Hero, Lewd Hero and so on. I play a lewd hero and, with spoilers in mind, my Jenna can't form a relationship with...a person (again spoilers) however I was wondering if a lewd hero path could instead have a full blown relationship with one of the other 'main girls.' I rather enjoy the relationship between Jenna and Rida. Basically my question is...at some point is there going to be a point in the story where you can pick to focus on one of the 'main girls' for Jenna to get deeply involved with? Possible different endings or prologs for who you pick? Stuff like that?

I like the new expressions. I do not care for the art shown for the overworld Jenna. I'm fine the reasons for it, but do not care for Jenna model here. She's just not Jenna.
The Doom of 12 .
I like the new expressions.

Yas! ♥

We feel confident that we can do it! We'll try to get it animated ingame asap to see what it's like :)
Anduo Games
Yaaaas ♥
Anduo Games
Thanks for your feedback!! We totally agree! ♥ We'll work on it more asap, so we can have a moving version in our dev build as soon as possible to see how it looks animated in game c:

I K R?!
Anduo Games
Thanks for sharing your opinion! Our whole dev team super likes the new iteration, so we will definitely work on it more :D
Anduo Games
What about the frame animation?
Anduo Games
Thanks for your opinion! We think the new style fits the overall aesthetics of third crisis better. But as with art, it's always subjective :) We'll work on it more and show it again when it's further advanced in production.
Anduo Games
Glad you like the final iteration more! c: We put a ton of work into trying different things with her
Anduo Games
Thanks for the feedback! We'll iterate on the details for sure! c: It's just a rough to get a feel for what it might look like in game in this broad non-pixelart style
Anduo Games
Thanks for the feedback! Tho I wouldn't read too much into the current details like the face of the overworld sprite, it was made in like 10 minutes, lol. We're just testing around. Also, in game, you'll barely be able to make out the face anyways, because it's so small. This is more about the overall style c:
I like the idea of more detailed overworld characters and animations. However, 1. The art styles of the character and the map clash and don't look good next to each other. 2. That character doesn't really look like Jenna. The face is all wrong and the hips are too wide.

I don't like the still image of the new overworld character, maybe it looks better animated? Or maybe I just don't like the 'thicc' style...
The Omni Degenerate
wow i cant wait to see all this in action. also loving the facial design improvement on anduo chan the last pic gave her a smile like the joker and eyes that pierced the soul but this one looks great!
To be honest, I'm not a fan of the new character overworld. The other one looks like it fits the style of the world much more.

I prefer the pixel overworld but honestly it’s just a preference of mine. I do love the versatility the new sprites have tho! I’m excited to see how y’all develop em and I know they’ll be fantastic!
Licorice Lain
Those new faces, holy shit.
Trusty Patches
I think the new overworld sprite design would be brilliant and honestly fit the style of the game better. It gives a more unique look and could possibly get more people interested in getting Third Crisis on either Steam or here, mainly because having unique sprites (alongside mini-lewds like you mentioned) speak to a higher effort than other games and a real dedication to quality. So long as y'all aren't pushing yourselves and work at your own pace then this could be an excellent addition!

Animations in the overworld! I am liking that. Go all out and have fun making those sprites.
Ricky
The overworld characters are a great concept and a huge yes for me. If you’re capable of making it work then I’m on board for those changes because like you said who wouldn’t accept more lewds.
Nick Gregoire
I am all about these new overworld sprites!
TruthSeekker
Big yes to overworld characters!
