♡ Skelebat Rug by Midnight Springs ♡

I have been massively dropping the ball on posting ANYTHING to tumblr about game dev progress - or any social media publicly, tbh - I am currently "rebranding" the IG dedicated to the game for when I have the energy to maintain it, which is unfortunately not right now. Lol.

So...since all of this has been revealed to backers already months ago, I feel comfortable sharing here. These are some sprites that have been FULLY finished* in the past year, along with a short blurb about the character shown. ^^ Apologies in advance that some of these images aren't formatted or watermarked in the same way as others.

Takuto Hirashima is a possible love interest for Mikuru, one of the twin protagonists. They both share an interest in the occult and horror movies. Takuto frequently goes on excited tangents about his interests, and has a photographic memory, so he tends to have a lot of information to spill. He has pretty severe carpal tunnel from being an active gamer.

Noah Reid is a potential love interest for Mikuru, as well. He is a Canadian model based out of Tokyo at the moment, the reason he is in Hokkaido at the time of the game is unclear. He likes to think he's very good at keeping himself shrouded in mystery. He was surviving on his own for several weeks after the outbreak.

Hanako Akechi is a possible love interest for Toshiro, the other twin protagonist. She has a pretty reserved personality, but when she finally reaches her boiling point, you'll wish she hadn't. She doesn't seem to have many hobbies and really keeps to herself. While she used to be a childhood friend of the twins, things soured, and they mostly lost contact. In hopes of patching things up, she managed to follow them to their attended university. It was not well-received.

Kiriko Yukimura is a possible love interest for both Mikuru and Toshiro (not at the same time...), depending on routes chosen. She is Arisa's closest friend, if not her only friend, and they've been bonded since childhood. Kiriko discovered gyaru style growing up, and decided it was a perfect aesthetic for her to build on to. She loves pastels and all things "girly," and at first it made her feel better to have a darker skintone when wearing a fashion known for intense tans in a country intolerant of mixed-race kids. Eventually, she felt really comfortable in her skin, and that shines through in her warm personality.

Kyoko Koyama is Arisa's older sister by 8 years. She is recently widowed. It's incredibly hard to read her real feelings through her expression, as she's very good at masking her real emotions, a skill learned from having to raise Arisa mostly alone. She loves Kiriko like family, and is desperate to mend the strained relationship she now has with Arisa as they both became adults.

A part-2 kickstarter to raise more funds for programming, the remaining art balance, and potentially even help with writing (I have a lot of health issues going on, have to do more conventions now than ever in order to afford rent, and I need hip surgery that I can't yet afford or make time for), and more...will launch early 2024. Please keep an eye on this page for updates!

*the sprites done first in order to be included in the demo are not actually finished, they're about halfway done. Each main character has 2 normal poses + 1 "fight" pose, multiple outfits, etc. In order for them to be done in time for demo publication, they just have 1-2 poses and 1 outfit each. Sprite artist is Sasamekuh!

Michael afton can be negatively affected by his experiences both alive and dead in ways that make him rude and irritable and disrespectful and uncaring and vindictive and a bastard in the eyes of other (living) people while still being a fundamentally kind person himself I think

Here's a few photos from the upcoming pastel goth fall clothing kickstarter by @midnightsprings - launching on July 14th!

Does Midnight ever adopt children? I feel like she would be a very good parental figure. I need Midnight to teach me how to do geometry.

Problem is that she lives in the middle of nowhere, no humans nearby, no place for cats to live permanently. It was once a shrine that used to be visited but its isolation was the point.

I think she would have issues as a parent, she's kind but very, very lonely. Kids need to grow up and find themselves, but Midnight doesn't want to be alone. She would dread her little kitten getting older and needing more independence and not properly prepare them to live their own life as a result.

She wouldn't teach how to hunt, or how to properly regulate their emotions, or how to interact with other cats.

But BOY could they do math lmao

I love it when ships are sunshine + midnight rain (but the sunshine is also midnight rain and the midnight rain is also sunshine)

*Sasori and Deidara, standing waist-deep in pleasantly warm water*

Deidara: Oh, Sasori … this is the most romantic thing you’ve ever done for me ~

Sasori: I wouldn’t say that …

Deidara: I would. Sneaking us away from the base to take a midnight trip to the hot springs? *puts his arms around Sasori’s shoulders* Never knew you had such passion in you, hm.

Sasori: I wouldn’t exactly phrase it like that …

Deidara: You’re so shy about accepting compliments, aren’t you? *starts kissing along Sasori’s neck and chest* But you’ve made your Deidara very, very happy … maybe you’d like to make him even happier — ?

Sasori: Maybe if there’s time after we finish the job, brat.

Deidara: … job? What job?

Sasori: It’s why we’re here. Kisame said there’s supposed to be a ghost in this hot springs, the spirit of a woman who drowned years ago. Rumor has it that if you stand in the exact spot she drowned, and she appears, if you offer to help her she leads you to a hidden place containing buried treasure. I plan on using the money to buy new equipment to make puppets.

Deidara:

Deidara: Sasori. That’s ridiculous. Ghosts aren’t real! And —

*the water suddenly turns ice cold and a mist appears to be forming over some rocks*

Sasori: Ah, looks like she’s coming. Now please try not to scream, Deidara; I don’t want to scare her away.

Deidara:
