Friday Update - July 15, 2022
🕑 Added 2022-07-16 05:46:53 +0000 UTCA little late with the update, but not too bad I think!
Hello, Patrons! Hope you all had a wonderful week full of summer fun. Personally I'm enjoying all the local fruit that is now in season, like strawberries, cherries, and apricots. I'm in a big fruit growing region and that's one of the big benefits.
Onto the update!
This is the first look at Shannon's "base" outfit for episode 6. Keep in mind that each girl will have multiple outfits within the episode. I've struggled to figure out what to preview here because I want each outfit to be a surprise. But you're all pretty used to Shannon in her usual t-shirt and shorts by now. You'll notice the t-shirts getting shorter as time goes on.
The fashion is honestly a big reason I'm a developer. It's kinda like The Sims - dressing the characters is fun. And it's a big part of the character. I've spoken of this before, but early on in development, when I was creating the characters, I developed a palette for each. You won't see them in these colors all the time, but they are their "go-to" colors.
Shannon - green, purple (because green matches well with the red hair, and purple matches well with green). Shannon's into more cartoon-y style like this t-shirt, as well as ironic internet meme fashion.
Maeve - pink, as you can tell by her room. The pink kinda denotes her femininity as the barbie doll.
Angel - black, obviously, but with bold colors as well. Angel is a bit of a hypocrite. She doesn't care what you think of her, but a part of her really wants people to like her look.
Olivia - Brown, beige, earth tones. This is mostly done to convey age, since Olivia looks to be in her 20s if you hadn't noticed. ;)
Crunch mode on the update is going crunchingly. I can tell you it for sure won't be out in July. There's a lot of work left to do. But I am happy with the progress and I'm really looking forward to your guys' reaction to this update. Within another couple weeks I should be able to give you a better estimate. Right now I'm thinking middle-August, so about 1 month away.
As always, that could change. It shouldn't change significantly this time, though! Cross your fingers.
Keep enjoying your summer!
