Sunny Day Jack Report 07/11/2023

Wednesday means it's time for our weekly development report, and this one's a nice big one for everyone to enjoy! Those of you who have been following us on Twitter may have noticed that we redesigned our logo for SDJ. The majority of the devlog will talk about our process behind that, so read it for free on Patreon or click the readmore for the important bits!

Unity Demo Version 0.03

Changelog:

Fixed video rendering while playing on the Steamdeck (via Windows Proton Compatibility)

Added missing CGs

Game extended slightly past the kissing on couch scene

Select narration from Y/N reworded for clarity

Macintosh OS compatible version has been added

Known bugs:

Certain voice lines may be missing or cut-off

This update was largely focused on ensuring stability before adding in more content. Those who backed the SDJ Kickstarter can access their beta testing keys via this link, while SnaccPop Patrons who pledge a minimum of $12/mo can access their beta testing key over here.

For our MacOS players, you may encounter issues launching the game due to Apple security, so please follow this tutorial to temporarily disable Gatekeeper (we recommend turning it back on afterwards). We're investigating ways to avoid Gatekeeper flagging the game, so please bear with us! As for our Linux/Steamdeck players, for the time being, please use the Windows version and use Proton Compatibility to play the game.

Logo Graphic Redesign

Like with the previous SnaccPop Studios logo, the SDJ logo was due for a makeover. For starters, the old logo was tiny.

Yes, that's literally the largest size we have on hand for the original SDJ logo source file, and everything else is just blown up bigger in size if need be. Astute viewers may also notice that the Something's Wrong With portion of the logo was also slightly off-center this entire time, as With was hanging off the edge a lot more than Something's. Another issue that came up as we continued working with our translators was the fact that we'd most likely need logos in the target language too; adapting the old logo was near impossible because all we had left of it was a .png file. At this point, making a new logo just made sense.

The new logo largely retains the important elements of the original one. Using the Buddy Belt motif as the background image and the use of two distinct fonts, a formal serif for SWW and a more bubbly sans-serif for the SDJ that essentially captures the essence of Jack's dual personality, were ideas Sauce carried over. Additionally, his signature primary colors palette is much more clear in the text, making this logo more easily identifiable. After nailing down a good foundation and centering the text, Sauce overlaid faint scanlines reminiscent of old CRT display monitors then splashed some blood here and there; all in all, the new logo is a nice visual of the ludonarrative dissonance the game itself aims to achieve.

We'll pass the mic to Gureii here when it comes to the localized logos!

Translation & Localization

Hey there! Gureii (she/her) here. You might know me from one of the previous devlogs posted here on Patreon not so long ago.

 I’ve been asked by BáiYù to present you a tiny (okay, not that tiny) little treat for both the Russian and the Japanese-speaking folks out there who are interested in our upcoming game, Something’s Wrong With Sunny Day Jack.

Let me introduce you to the new localized logos real quick:

One of the most interesting aspects of working on these was the brainstorming session behind both of them. As the Lead Russian translator of this project, one of my main concerns was to come up with the title translation that would be both both simplistic and catchy, hence the name change from a statement to a question. The localized version of the title - «Что с тобой, Джек?» - includes both the questions a player would ask to Jack himself: “What happened to you?” and “What’s wrong with you?”, either depending on their opinion towards him or both of these at the same time.

The Japanese translation team, on the other hand, opted for something much more laconic, to which I was happy to comply! They're only using Katakana to translate the commonly abbreviated title into【サニー・デー・ジャック】, which will be easy for Japanese speakers to read (it'd be pronounced "Sanī dē Jakku"). It's short and punchy, and it's not unusual for Japanese logos to have the English text as well.

Another aspect (a tricky one this time!) was looking up the Cyrillic and Kana fonts that would match the mood of the English logo we got: it gets quite tricky when we talk about anything but Latin fonts, and it gets even harder when we talk about something that is as bold, youthful and bright as it is. For example, with the katakana transcription the Japanese translation team and I had to search for something that would not scare the person interested in playing the game, something much more inviting than the crimson lettering used on the English logo. The bloody Buddy Belt portion of the logo will still indicate to potential players that this is a horror game, so it works out.

By the way, you might be asking yourself, "Why isn't there a Spanish version of the logo?" Both Pierre and Nana expressed that translating the title wouldn't sound nearly as good as the original English title (a literal Latin Spanish translation would be "Algo Malo Pasa Con Día Soleado Jack"). Luckily, both English and Spanish share similar alphabets, so it's as big of a difference compared to Russian or Japanese.

And that's all we got for this week. Thanks again for your continued support of SnaccPop Studios!

will a balanced breakfast set their heart free?!

[uglysweeteater]

Don't be scared, sweets! He just want you in his arms....

[uglysweeteater]

(I apologize in advance for some pictures i tried to get good ones.) So I'm gonna like talk about everything I got cause I can! Starting off with the shirt

the art on it is beautiful, and the material is really stretchy. I feel like I could have gotten away with a medium, lol. The best way to describe the material is like athletic shirts, which was a point I didn't like at first. However, the more I wear it, the more I feel like it's a perfect fit for these hot summer days in the desert. (side not the blood on the shirt freaked my mom out cause she thought it was real and mine.)

next! Is this cute little pillow

it's so fucking cute and easy to cuddle ngl. The material is nice, and it's not too firm or too soft. There is a zipper at the bottom so you can take the fluff out to wash it or to replace the fluff, which I like at a lot. The zipper is also small and hidden, so it doesn't poke you or anything when cuddling it.

Next are these cute buttons

I had put them on my bag as soon as I got them. Not much to say besides they are super cute, and I'm thinking of putting theme elsewhere.

Next is this amazing body pillow cover

I love this thing a lot. not only is the art amazing, but I really love the material. It's stretchy and feels nice. I own three other body pillows, and the material used for this one is by far my favorite. next paycheck, I plan on getting a pillow for it.

So the last reward has a lot of pictures, and I'm at my limit. so I'm either gonna reblog with pictures of the last reward or make a new post here!

✨☀️ATTENTION TO SUNSPOTS!☀️✨

We're now accepting applications for artists and writers! Interested in joining the zine project? Fill out the form! Application for artists: https://forms.gle/XcuXPcJjecDwRoyKA Application for writers: https://forms.gle/u8HELAPZGMLa4wf86

Remember, this isn't a contest! There's no prize to win here. We're just trying to have a minimum standard of quality for the art and writing (no spelling errors, all artwork must be in color with backgrounds, etc.) since we'll be publishing these works into a magazine. We also want to make sure that everyone who submits is ready to create something based off the prompt within the timeframe we've given, as well as have a general understanding of the characters and the game. We also want to make sure all four love interests get a roughly equal amount of attention.

Don't be afraid to apply! The more submissions we get, the more we can put into the zine. While we can't guarantee that everyone who applies will be published, we promise that we'll do our best to make a high quality zine for everyone. Hopefully we'll be able to do this again next year as well with a new theme. We're looking forward to seeing what you can create!

For those who have been having trouble using online translators like google to translate the zine, consider using DeepL or its browser extension. We want everyone in the fandom to have a chance to participate, regardless of whether English is your first language or not.

Please make that the links you provide are accessible for public viewing and that all requirements are met when submitting your application. We can't review your work if we can't access your lovely art/writing after all.
