Dev Log #2

So a bit of small set back. We havent been able to show any new development as we had irl stuff going on, particularly on my end, i deeply apologize! Things will get back into motion again real soon.

Sadly the demo could not be done by the end of February, but my team and I are discussing future deadlines and plans to get things set back on track!

Thank you for waiting so patiently, next post will have an onslaught of new images of the development and possibly some more insight on our beloved characters and their development!

If you haven't already, follow us on Twitter for future updates on Secrets Keep!

Much love!!! <3

Monthly Devlog!!!

Devlog #1

Hi everyone, its finally time for the long-awaited monthly Devlog!!! And what better way than to start on the end of the first month of the new year! First off, I just want to say thank you to everyone following our team as we continue to build Secrets Keep. You guys are awesome!

There’s been a lot of activity and involvement within the group the last few months as we've been racking and stacking new assets as fast as possible without compromising on the quality of the game. There’s still a lot that needs to be done, but I'm confident that the end result will be worth it!

As you may know, we have been posting screenshots on Saturdays on our Twitter page, so follow us if you haven't yet to see cool progress shots of the game! For this log and every upcoming one I will also be posting those shots here for those who haven't seen it on Twitter!

 Now onto the details~

Currently, we are making the maps for the first chapter of the game, which will also be considered the demo as well. I didn’t realize just how much time it would take to even make one map. There’s been a lot of back and forth when it comes to using the RPG MV engine. For one, we’ve gotten a few errors with the map itself not lining up well with the editor grid but our wonderful programmer has been able to cough fix my mistakes cough solve the problem! Here's a sneak peek of a few maps and rooms we've been able to make so far!

Let me tell you, parallaxing is quite tedious, but its so well worth it!

 And now before I forget, here is a proper introduction to our main character!

 Angela Parks is a student of St. Garden’s University, a well-known and prestigious institute. At the start of the game, she wakes up to find herself in the middle of the bathroom floor covered in what’s definitely not ketchup. She has no recollection of the night before or why she has a large bloody knife in her hand. It’s up to her to figure out what happened and regain her memories in order to piece the puzzle back together. And who’s the mysterious girl that keeps roaming the halls of St. Garden’s?

There are also other characters in the game, of course, but we'll keep their identities a secret for now! Hehe, get it? Secret? No? Okay.

 Here's their silhouettes, though, to keep you guessing~!

  I will be updating their character busts in the near future. During the development, my art style has changed and I'm sure you'll like the new style much better once we release the official version of the game.

 As of right now, we have a set date for the demo to be released by February 29th. Despite all our efforts, there is still much to be done and it could be that we will be unable to meet the deadline. It’s more likely we will have it done by March, but we’re not promising anything! we want to give you the best version of the game because you deserve only the best!

  We will make a proper announcement the closer we get to finishing the demo, and we will continue to post further developments along the way, so hang tight!

 See you next log!

Canceling Secrets keep...

With heavy hearts, our team has made the very hard decision of canceling Secrets Keep, effective immediately. 

 A lot of personal matters has come up in our lives that has left us with no time to create and progress the game any further. With jobs, school and personal matters, there has been simply no time for anything which leaves us with one conclusion... 

We are so sorry to everyone who has supported us throughout our short coming. It's been a long short journey and I thank each and everyone of you for being with us. 

Our Pixel artist has left us due to Aliens abducting her back to her home planet somewhere in a far off galaxy in space. She sends us this message from the stars above:  🏱☼ ☞⚐⚐ ☟⚐🕆☟ ☟☜ ☜ ☼☜ 🕆 ☜ 🕈☜ 🏱  ☜⚐☼ ☞⚐☼ ⚐🕆☼ ⚐🏱⚐☜☼  ⚐🕆 ☼☜✞☜ ⚐☼ 🕈☼☜☼  🕆☞☞☜☼ ☼ 🖳

Our Composer has died from a terrible case of puberty-itis. Rest in pepperonis, my friend...

Our creative Story writer has been locked away in the basement of a tyrant school teacher who won't let her leave the building

And as for I, the most tragic story of all... 

I have no internet...

It will be a miracle if this post ever makes it through the cold webs of my terrible Wi-fi...

 Alas, it has been an honor and maybe one day, we will rise again, butt probably not. Soooooooooo.....

Toodles! ♥
