I'm A Multishipper At Heart When It Comes To One Piece, But I Can't Believe I Just Saw Some Random Zosan

✦ Lost in Limbo Devlog #14 | 12.02.24

And November is over! This month has been filled with paperwork, organizing receipts, and so on, which isn't very fun, but it's part of the job!

We are making great progress with everything overall; merch has been ordered and we have received proof and approved it; our voice actors are already delivering the voiced names y'all paid for during our Kickstarter campaign; and more! Let's see it in detail, shall we? :^)

Our dear Raquel has been working hard (I think I say this every devlog, but damn) on reworking the sprites for the extended demo now that the Special postcards for the Kickstarter are done! For this next batch, she'll be working on Ara and Amon, so here's a WIP of how Ara is looking so far! 💜

I think you can see how her design is already more detailed and cohesive in some areas. We'll most likely ask for feedback when Amon is ready too, to test the waters with both characters like we did with Gael and Xal :^)

The street is coming to life! This background is almost ready thanks to Astro. We'll have four new locations in the Extended Demo to help with the pacing and the introduction of our world and story to (hopefully) make it perfect. Or something close to it!

In the writing department, I've so far added 7000 words to the prologue. We have one flavor choice, two personality choices (and several personality reactions), and three "relationship choices". These basically shape your relationship with Evie in this case. For example, you'll be able to choose if you are intimate friends, are warm to each other, or if you prefer something less physical / touchy. And Evie will remember that!

And this is just so far. While River has a kind of "set" personality, I want people to be able to shape some aspects of their life.

In the writing department I should also include the documents I've provided to our VAs, and to our composer, Tomás. More on that below!

We have a proper help screen! Wohoo! 💜

Now you can enjoy Ren'py's default help screen but looking a bit nicer. This is for those who are not familiar with Ren'py's usual keybindings and stuff :^)

Nothing else on the programming side this month. I've focused on writing the script and that's going to be my main job until I can actually start programming something!

As I said before, our beloved voice actors are already working on the voiced names! In fact, Xal's VA (Francfil Pontañeles) and Pride's (Pat Langner) already recorded them! A little surprise is that we have been able to add our default MC's name, River, as a voiced name. For those of you who want to play with that name, you'll also enjoy some voiced lines!

What else—ah! We are already working with Tomás for our OST, and we have settled in 19 tracks total. Those are even more tracks than we expected! This is thanks to you all, and especially thanks to those of you who ordered more merch via Backerkit. You made those four extra tracks possible!

Our merch has been checked and so far only the pins are missing a preview and therefore our approval. We had to edit some files (beginner's mistake!) but being the first time we do this, I'd say things have been rather smoothly! We'd like to be able to start shipping this month, but it may not be possible. Which is a bummer! But well, we settled in December / January, so January it is, if nothing happens!

(Don't mind the colors being too flashy here—they will look more cohesive in game!)

OH, and the last extra bit! I've been working on the personality choices, as you all know, and Kayden has been helping me make the icons that will appear next to those choices for those who are colorblind. An extra thing to make them pop and differentiate them better! I think they are pretty self-explanatory, and if not, well—that means we have to give those icons a twist!

November has been a chaotic month for me due to the aftermath of the floods and my vacation week. The rest of the team has also had their good amount of irl stuff happening around them, but we've made it! The new year is approaching faster than I thought, as per usual, and I hope we can finish 2024 on a good note!

And that's all! As always, please take care, have fun, and enjoy the rest of the week!

Are Lázaro or Cécile ticklish?

Lázaro is not very ticklish! They're ticklish in certain spots like the sole of the feet or behind the ears.

Cécile is very sensitive to the touch but good luck getting close enough to find out where he's ticklish!

Is the TRY NOT TO DIE in your demo announcement just for dramatic effect or can we actually die in the demo 🥲

Oh you can absolutely die in the demo. I made sure of it.

how would the LI feel sharing a bath with mc

✦ The LIs / ROs sharing a bath with the MC!

✦ Amon: Super comfortable. Would play some music in the background, serve some wine, and have the MC lean back against his chest to enjoy a relaxing moment together. Chances are things would get a bit heated, though...

✦ Raeya: Wouldn't say no if the bathtub is big enough, but doesn't exactly see the objective here. She thinks taking a bath is a waste of time and too much of a hassle. After all, you can get yourself cleaned and together in the shower! Once she's tried it, though, she doesn't mind it on special occassions.

✦ Gael: Loves it. He offers to wash the MC's hair and body, gives them a massage, brushes their hair...He focuses all his attention on them and likes it that way. It would be a pretty romantic and intimate moment, with lots of feathery kisses and sweet embraces.

✦ Envy: Needs heavy convincing and would probably stay out of the water at first, just talking with the MC and watching them as they enjoy the bath. Would bring over a book to distract themself, and eventually he'd join the MC in the bathtub. Not something he'd do too frequently, though; too out of his comfort zone!

✦ Ara: She has the bath salts, the scented candles, the snacks, the flower petals...The MC only has to ask and the bath will be ready and perfect for them to enjoy a wonderful evening, just the two of them. She'd most likely schedule a couple bath every two weeks to ensure the MC is well rested and spend some quality time together!

✦ Xal: Nervous as per usual. He will never get used to it; it's a special kind of intimacy. Not that he dislikes it, though! He just feels a bit too vulnerable. Bubble baths are his favorite because, well, naked bodies are less visible, and... Foam fight!!!!

✦ Father Pride: He usually doesn't have time to take a bath to begin with, so he deeply cherises these moments of calmness. The MC is absolutely welcome to join him, cuddle up to him and enjoy some loving caresses while he reads. He will probably fall asleep, the poor man.

And what is so beautiful about them is this. Luffy is touchy and would always feed Zoro's touch starved body while Zoro is Luffy's rock where he knows Zoro would never let him be alone.

✦ MEET CÉCILE, ONE OF OUR UNLOCKABLE LOVE INTERESTS!

When you first meet Cécile, Gael's bodyguard, you can't stop from shivering under the gaze of his bloodthirsty eyes.

He has no interest in you. In fact, he openly dislikes you. You can tell by the way he looks at you; if it were his choice, his hands would already be around your neck. And yet, you can't deny the attraction pulling you towards him, oblivious of how dangerous it would be if he were to worship you instead of his Master.

Can you survive the love of an obsessed killer, or will you meet your end at the raw passion of his hands?

You all worked hard (and fast!) so here he is: our highly questionable love interest for those of you who like a bit of extra danger in your romances...and someone being obsessed with you.

Cécile and another mysterious character are the two unlockable love interests you'll be able to date if we reach their Kickstarter stretch goal...launching in three days!
