Background Preview: Nearby Forest
🕑 Added 2023-04-19 18:26:30 +0000 UTCWhaaaa?! A new background preview?!
That's right! We had originally thought we'd be finished with all the bg art needs back in 2020-2021 roughly, but it turned out there were a few more locations at the academy or in this case, surrounding the academy property to discover still! :O
For a little context. This location is the nearby forest that surrounds the academy within the countryside of Wales, UK. (Fictionally) It's known to students that they shouldn't wander too far away from the academy building for their own safety, but even then, about 2-3 miles into the forests surrounding the building. There's tall metal fences that prevent larger animals from getting in, but also to prevent students from escaping.
The only way in and out of the academy grounds is through the front gate that seems guarded... But now we're getting into a little too much context aren't we? ^^"
This background has a day and sunset variant, no night time one. I really do love how beautiful it turned out though! It really seems to capture that stunning sense of nature in it. ^^

XD mae hyn yn swnio'n ddoniol! (I don't actually know Welsh sadly.. ^^" Didn't get the chance to learn from my Grandma. One day!) :P
Guess we're learning Welsh now! 🤭
XD Technically? I'd say the rough idea is that the academy is within North Wales, at least it seems to pair up with the countryside setting a bit better. :P Little quality fixes in regards to this location change will also pop up within the game in the coming months.
Eyup! ^^ It's a recent change, so I actually forgot to adjust those details here on the "about" section. It was "Kaikaku Academy", but in our recent development report I think earlier this month, I touched on the fuller details on the location change and making sense of it, etc. The official new locations name for the school is "Pembroke Academy". (Of course, only mentioned within game, MA will still be referred to as "Messy Academy" for the title and everything. :P ) Thank you! ^^

Wait, the school is in Wales? I thought, based on the school's name, that it was somewhere in Japan. Kaikaku roughly translates as "Radical Change", a fitting name given what happens to the main characters (a radical change from normal post-High School life to diapers, lol). Beautiful artwork, btw.
