This is Saen'Liz, one of the very few necromancer in the world. That's about all the lore I have on her right now, I hope you enjoyed it :)
I'll probably write more about characters, story event and places in the future, once I have a clearer idea on what happens in the story. Right now, I only know the beginning and the end, with a few events in between.
I'm done drawing characters for now and instead switched to environments and chibis. I made progress a lot faster than I thought I would: Every place I wanted to have for the demo and Vuu's new chibi sprites are ready (the ones that are shown out of combat). Rose's chibi sprites will be ready soon enough as well! All that's left is a few NPC sprites, some general objects (chests, levers, this kind of stuff), and that's about it. Next will be designing new spells and items, puzzle blocks, shapes. Once that's done, I'll begin implementing all of that in the current build, design a bunch of rooms and a dungeon, and probably add a few other objects on the way when I get some interesting ideas. Once all of this is taken care of, I'll need to work on the audio side of the game and fix any bug that might pop up.
There is still some work left, but I'm finally starting to realize how close I'm getting to the demo release :D
No date until i'm 100% certain I can deliver though.
I wanted to share a look at some of the new environments I drew, but it will look better after I've implemented them so instead here is Vuu's new idle pose:
Q: How do you plan on releasing the game? On Steam? On a website? Also, if B.E. Witches will be a non-free game (I assume it will be non-free), will Patrons get it for free (or at a discounted price)?
A: At the very least, I plan to release BE Witches on Itch.io. If possible I'd like to have it on Steam, GOG, and maybe more platforms, but to be completely honest with you I have barely any experience when it comes to publishing games, so the "how" of the matter is an issue I'll mostly tackle once I get there. I'd love to get it on the Switch at some point too, in the far future. BE Witches will probably cost somewhere between 10~20$, I'm not entirely sure yet. If I earn enough money through Patreon, I'd be able to sell BE Witches for less. And yes, every patron that has spent at least 5$ in total will get the game for free. I had planned to add that in the tier description when I renovate the page, at the next demo's launch, but since you asked I guess you're not the only one wondering so I'll add this part right now. Thanks for your questions :)
And that's it for now, I'll have more chibis next time! see you! :D
