Lovestarved (otome/josei jam) penultimate week progress

Sooo, it's getting to that part of a game jam where I start to panic cos I realise it's the penultimate week and there's still heaps of stuff to do x3 Thankfully, I have the majority of things working in the previewer at least! I was away from home last Thursday - this Monday, but was back to running tests on the main game as soon as I got home. Everything seems to work as it should when testing the full demo without changing MC's name & selecting she/her pronouns, but I still need to run a full test with a name change & they/them pronouns to make sure I didn't mess something up there x3 I didn't want to go right into that though after finishing my first demo playthrough test, so I started working on some video backgrounds for alternate title screens + some stuff to go in the extras section :3 It took me most of the day, but I finally managed to make a working version of a music player that has unlockable tracks, haha. I know it's not exactly the most exciting feature in the world, but it's something I've wanted to implement in my projects for a looooong time, and just haven't been able to either due to a lack of time to work on it, or lack of knowledge to know how! In all my past projects that feature music players, as a compromise, I've just locked the entire player behind a condition such as reaching a specific ending or completing the whole game. Then, once the player is unlocked, the entire soundtrack can be played regardless of whether or not you've actually encountered all the tracks while playing. It's one of those small things that's always really bothered me, haha. But in Lovetarved, you will be able to access the music player after reaching any ending or the end of the demo + individual tracks will become unlocked as you hear them while progressing through the game :3 The only thing that sucks is that I'm relatively content with the layout of the buttons for the demo, but I know it won't be able to stay like that for the full game because there are more tracks to add xD The demo will feature 18 (possibly 19, depending on whether I decide to include a certain track or not) tracks from the OST I made, but there are at least another 6 tracks that need to be added to the player in the full version >.<

Anyways, I'm gonna shut up because it's probably not particularly interesting to read me rambling about this sorta thing xD and also, there's still so much testing left to do T_T

sometimes i think about knuckles and shadow and their respective relationships to their past, their ancestors, their (lack of) family, the concept of home, the concept of guardianship, the idea that their life is beholden to something else. knuckles alone on an island, tasked with protecting an immensely powerful gem that literally shaped the history of his people, and he has nobody to turn to because they’re all gone and he’s all that’s left, carrying an entire culture on his back and trying to decipher his own past because it’s so precious and lost to him. shadow trying to extricate himself from the trauma train of his origins, because everybody he loved from his own past is dead and the rest never considered him a person, so all that’s left is throwing it all away and figuring out how to live for himself, and fuck the rest of the world. knuckles finding meaning and identity through his role as guardian, and likewise being tethered and isolated from community because of it. shadow losing his sense of identity as the cure and protector of maria following her death (following his failure to save her, to die for her) and now scrambling to create an identity wholly independent from anybody else.

listen.

Making a game for the O2A2 2024 Visual Novel Jam! :D

Very nearly done and ready to post soon, just need to get my music and sound effects in, but it's coming out good! Got some help with creating a few more effects that I just wanted to practice that add a bit more life to things like the gui as well!

Plus, it involves a character that I quite liked to make properly, so it'll be fun to be able to show her off! :3
