Latest batch of work on the Hive!
I finished integrating the other drawings for the playtime segment with Lola. I realized too late that I forgot to add the clipped pacifier to her top; I hope I'll have time to fix that next week.
Once this segment is completed, June and Lola draw a bit, and Lola decides to draw a portrait of June upside down! As with the first artwork, this one is just a placeholder that will be improved later.
The relationship system has also been integrated and is working perfectly! Every choice made in favor of one character over another will earn a point with said character. The animation above appears every time you earn a point.
And speaking of relationships, I worked on the second major segment with Maddie. That one required more effort.
This segment had been written quite linearly, where the player could choose from a range of conversation topics with Maddie, and once the topics were exhausted, the segment ended.
I enjoyed the way the segment with Lola was constructed so much that I modified this one to make it similar and more interactive. It required some dialogue rearrangement and slight rewrites, but I'm happy with the result.
Here, June's goal is to find conversation topics with Maddie. So, you will need to click on different elements in order to question her.
Then, Maddie will provide information on certain topics, such as how school works in the Hive.
After finishing the segment, June and Maddie talk a little more before heading back inside, and something strange happens with Maddie...
And that's all for today!
Next week, I hope to reach the store and introduce the character of Mike. At this rate, I think the demo will be available in early August. The crunch is pretty intense to have the demo by then, but so far, so good!
