The girls are revealed at long last!

Hello all, Tacochickenwings speaking~  And I'm here to showcase something very important today, something we have waited a long time for: art of ALL of our girls!  Our lovely artists have been hard at work, and my jimmies are simply rustled to present the fruits of their labor:

Nadia Winters

Elise Wagner

Layla Sommers

Reiko

Vivian DeLoren

We are making progress in leaps and bounds since we started SC7 almost half a year ago.  Look for further updates within the week - Layla's mini VN, "No Rain", is in the final stages.  This week we will hear more about Vivian's, "Doll House".  So stay tuned, beautiful people.

I love you. <3

What Sets Us Apart

We are certainly an ambitious bunch.~

To bring together an international team under one unified purpose so hastily is certainly no small task - we are NOT small people.

We are dedicated under one unifying and ambitious goal: To create a unique, emotionally compelling VN that everyone can find some way to relate to.~

Coda: Of Love and Composition is a strange bird, embracing many classic VN rules, dispatching others, and rewriting brand new standards.

I personally guarantee you that CoLoCo will be something new, fresh, and visceral, while still maintaining a solid grounding in what ultimately draws so many people to the world of Visual Novels:

HENTAI!   ~Nope~

JAPAN!  ~Nope~

THE FEELS~~

Ah yes, The Feels. So fleetingly found, yet so often disbursed among us. To be frank (though personally, I'd rather be Abe), Nothing really hits you as hard as the feels.

And CoLoCo will be abundant with feels.

Please Abe, tell us more about CoLoCo! Don't continue to keep us in the dark!

Well Timmy, I suppose I shall.

Ultimately, CoLoCo is a thrust into a more personal and tangible VN world. A world where even minor characters tend to leave a major impact, though you may not realize it at first.

~~Enter the town of Woodland, a moderately-sized town nestled in the forests of the beautiful state of New Yo-

WAIT A MINUTE ABE! YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT CoLoCo DOESN'T TAKE PLACE IN JAPAN?!?!

Well Timmy, to be blunt...

CoLoCo does NOT take place in Japan.

*Coughs* Now, as I was saying... Woodland, a moderately-sized town nestled in the forests of the beautiful state of New York. Essential to the location are several things:

• Woodland University - A decently upper-level undergraduate and graduate degree school, known for it's lovely campus.
• The Old-Town - The outer rims of the town of Woodland, known for a rustic look.
• Downtown - Urban Woodland, a thriving center of buildings and people. Large music scene, very hip. ;)
• The Forests - Ah yes, the Forests. Where do you think the town got its name? 
• Many, many more locations.

Throughout the stories of CoLoCo, readers will assume several roles, experience multiple plot-lines, engage themselves in a world that is intertwined with the paths around it, and ultimately become engrossed, delving deep into their own hearts.

Some Key Points in CoLoCo:

• A believable, connected world.
• Characters dealing with true issues, true problems, and true hearts.
• Breaking of norms - Life isn't always happy for some... likewise things seem to always go right for others.
• A wide variety of choices - Intertwining paths and ideas really bring the world of CoLoCo together. You WILL feel like your choices in PATH A truly make a difference in PATH B (C,D, etc...)
• Themes and ideas - CoLoCo is being created for YOU, the readers. You dedicate your time to following us, and us such we dedicate our time to creating something wonderful for you. Expect quality writing and themes. :)

MUCH, MUCH MORE

THIS NEXT WEEK WILL BE A WEEK OF UPDATES! EXPECT A NEW BLOG POST EACH NIGHT~~ :D

Tomorrow I will tell you some about a few characters, and a bit about the evolution of a sprite :) 

While you're here....

You see, this is a lot of work, and finding those who share our dedication can be a bit difficult! I beseech you, if you feel that you could benefit our team in ANY WAY, please send us an email at the address listed on the flyer below :'D  WE ARE REALLY  LOOKING FOR DEDICATED ARTISTS!! :D

~Thank you all so much for your time!

First Release - This Fall

That's right folks, the time is drawing near for our first release! Layla's Mini-VN, No Rain, is sure to bring forth a lot of emotions, and hopefully will help us expand INTO THE HEAVENS!

...

Lol

But seriously, look for a general Autumn release date, and know we're working hard to make it absolutely wonderful.

Simply put, if it isn't phenomenal, then it won't be released until we make it beyond phenomenal!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But Judger, why does Layla look so sad up there? ^

Well Timmy, sometimes things happen in our lives that.... well they bring us down. Quite often, it isn't easy to rise back up, but if you can manage to do so, the rewards will be really keen!

...B-but Judger, that still doesn't tell me why she's so sad.

Stahp Timmy :I

B-bu...

Stahp :I
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks for reading, and be on the lookout for more soon! Oh, and if you could...

Click This Please  (It would really help us out!)

Heeeeeey-yo

This is Tacochickenwings, the object of all your wildest fantasies, speaking to you this evening.

Vivian's mini VN is almost finished.  All of us are making some pretty damn good progress, and a big kudos to everyone involved in the project.  All our artists and musicians are doing EXCELLENT work as well, and we will be paying everyone in sexual favors and finger food.

No, seriously though.  Great group of people to work with, very smashing ladies and gents.  We have recently revamped some very important business in our VN, and it's going to play out a little like -

Can't tell you that for free.  Yet.

I intend to elaborate later.  Just know that it's going to be good, and it's going to be very different from the standard fare.  Trust me babes.

As for my end of things, let me be the first to admit that I have minimal experience with VNs.  I have played only a tiny bit of Katawa Shoujo, and that's it, because I think I put it down to do something stupid and potentially dangerous.  I also have absolutely no love for anime either, which is what a lot of VNs connect with.  I'm writing Vivian's VN purely on my love of psychology.  I'm a psychological horror/surrealist writer by trade, trying to write a romance - so I think I've concocted something, uh...interesting.  

But see, that's what's nice about the fact that all of our writers are different people with different styles - we are creating something that blends, but also has a little something different to bring to the table with each story and writer.  And we have a really lovely team of editors that is hard at work making everything sound all pretty and fit together nicely, and they're just going to make everything flow, so our stories don't read like rabbits trying to hump donkeys.

Well folks, it's almost midnight, and I wrote all of that sober.  Not that I even drink because I'm bad enough without it.  Surprising as that may be.  Just know that I love each and every one of you the way you are, and another team member will probably come along and write something more coherent.

Here is (FINALLY) my own little avatar.  Yes, my hair is actually purple from my magical hair stylist powers, though my land lady is not happy about the hair color stains on the shower walls, I'm sure.

Our Work, Our Time

Tick Tock


Every day brings us closer to our ETA for the release of Layla's Mini-VN, No Rain.

Now, i'm sure that all of you wonderful people have questions -

What will the mini include?
Is this simply a beta-release?
Aren't you worried about spoiling things in the full VN?
Why is her story titled No Rain?

My intention with this post is to answer these questions, so let's get started :D

1. What will the mini include?

• Full In-game Soundtrack
• Multiple CGs, Sprites, Backgrounds, and special effects.
• A comprehensive and engrossing introduction to one of our heroines, Layla.
• Extras, Previews, and Notes.

What the mini will NOT include -

• FMV

Yus :I CoLoCo will implement FMV, but these minis shall not.... until a later update perhaps ;)

2. Is this simply a beta-release?

NO. No Rain is not simply a product created to say we've got the skills to back up our talk - though it does help serve that purpose coincidentally.

All of the Mini-VNs are being created to better introduce and engross the reader - YOU - into the universe of Coda: Of Love and Composition. Through moving passages and stirring imagery, we promise to make our Mini-VNs something you will never forget, and will long to play again.

3. Aren't you worried about spoiling things for the full VN?

- No worries here. We're going through great lengths right now to ensure that the Mini-VNs do not spoil the characters for CoLoCo, but rather leave the reader even more curious and wanting more :3

To Summarize: The Minis will not spoil you for the full game, but only whet your appetite ;)

4. Why is Layla's Mini titled, No Rain?

-Inb4blindmelon

But seriously, that's a hard one to answer without spoiling things. What I can tell you:

• Rain holds a special significance to Layla
• Rain washes away, renews, and in many senses cleanses.
• Rain is both sad and beautiful to many people.

Ultimately, I plan to post a spoiler-free introduction to Layla's mini as the release date gets closer, but know that the name holds a special significance.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

We ARE moving forward, step by step c: As it stands now, look for Layla's Mini to be released early in September.

But hey, we're still looking for team members, specifically dedicated artists - if that's you, then come on down and apply :D

Be sure to like our facebook page, and check out our new forum design as well :)

~The_Judger

Well, it gets the point across at least.

I know.

I know.

This is gonna be really lame.

But...well, the Vivian concepts I made, I made with Sims 3.  Hey though, I mean, come on.  Computer game or not, it's a pretty damn good way to make some art.  And we haven't really seen what Vivian looks like, right?  So here she is.

So, there you have it!!  Vivian DeLoren.  Hoping to get some official art soon, but you get the idea, right?

Anyhoo, talk to you all later.  With love - from Tacochickenwings~

(Edit from Judger - We do have some Vivian art up from a few posts ago in "The Teaser" :3 )

Oh my god who is THAT

Hello all, long time no see.  Why, it's Tacochickenwings~  I know I know, it's been a long time, let's all keep our trousers zipped here.

I just wanted to give a few updates regarding my contributions.  As you may or may not know, I'm the path writer for Vivian, who, thus far, we've released very little about.  Later this week I will show my concepts of her (which I made on The Sims...yeah, don't judge me), and we are hoping to get some REAL art of her quite soon too.

Because I am certainly not a real artist anywhere besides my wildest fantasies, no matter what I tell the ladies.

Anyhoo, all characters have been designed for her mini VN.  The outline of the story is finished.  Kind of a hot, heavy piece of work, sometimes I gotta open a window in here, but ya know.  What can you do.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I have not encountered any freak accidents that have ended me.  I work in the salon industry, so I spend many hours a day making people fabulous and pretending to be a friendly person.  And proof of my existence is coming very soon, here, on this blog.

Stay beautiful.

Red's Sleepy Update

Hi. It's me again, posting another update regarding our splendid little game.

At the moment, we are all hard at work getting the stories written for the Prequel VNs, and I'm happy to say that we are making a lot of progress! Layla's should be out in September, Judger has made great progress with her prequel story, and everything has been going great. The rest will be out by the holiday season, if all goes well. We've also gained another team member, an artist who you will more than likely hear from in the coming week. I will say that they are very talented, and I am quite excited to see what they can do! Our music department has been busy as well, Victor Seven has composed another track to be used in the game, this one sounding a bit more upbeat than the one we've shown. Though, sadly, we won't be releasing anymore tracks, not for a while at least. If you wanna hear them, you'll just have to wait for the game to be released!

And now, I have some more concept art to show! Though these actually weren't made by our artists. I found a character generator online, and decided to check it out. I was actually so impressed with what I ended up with, that I decided to use the character I made as a reference for Elise. So, yeah, say hello to Elise folks!

Of course, we'll have her look a bit different. Her clothes, first off, will be entirely different, and her hair will probably be a bit different as well. However, this will be the "base" image that will be used for her future art.

Judger also made one for Layla, but we will still be sticking with Daru's art, of course.

Now, a little about my progress regarding Elise's prequel story. I have decided on a time and general story outline. Without giving too much away, it will be a story that Elise recalls from her childhood, a rough period in her life that helped shape her to be the way she is in the present. Her close relationship with her older sister Eve will also be explored, among other... darker things. As far as the actual writing process, well, I've been unable to stick with one idea, and have been continuously modifying the story as I write it. So far though, every modification has been an improvement, and I am enjoying writing the story I have thought out so far. Elise, as a character, is becoming easier to write for, as I am getting a better idea of what I want her personality to be like. I shall do my best to keep you all posted, and to post more updates on the blog! 

In the meantime, come talk to us on the forums! We're all half-crazy with our work, so taking some time to chat would be lovely..

Until next time!

A Teaser

Well guys, I have something very special for you today :D

But...

I'm not going to give you a lot of info about it ;)

So think of this as a teaser for our final, unannounced girl ;)

So many questions! :O So many things to say! :O

Oh, and remember to register on our forums! All those who do within the week will receive a promotional gift! :D

More tomorrow c:

(yes, I got a haricut)

Writer Update Status Report: Via

So yeah, it hasn't been a smooth week for me, if we talk about writing, that is. Basically, I've been stuck for several days in that same darn scene. And not in the middle of writing it or editing process... I was 7 whole days THINKING what could the scene be about. And no ideas came to mind. It was depressing, and frustrating. I wanted to throw a cat out of the window, and I LOVE CATS.

Thank god I had a moment of genius a couple of hours ago. I went into a writing spree and I'm almost done with the scene. You don't know how relieved I am, because that SINGLE scene was keeping me from writing anything else. Now I'm back in action!

So, yeah, that's basically it. Nothing else going on at life. My indoors lifestyle has not much space for interesting events, though they do happen once in a while.

A special message from our Great Dark Leader a.k.a. Judger~~~: Those who register (I suppose that at the forums, as there are no other domain we own that requires registration...yet ;D *wink*) over the next week will be given a gift.

Now, I don't know what gift it is. But it should be good, I think.

Well, that's all. Seeya!

Progress, Progress Everywhere (Happy 3 Months Today!)

When this first started, I had difficulty believing we would be anything but slow - I was wrong.

Every day, I log onto our developer forums, and am amazed by all that we have done, in such a short amount of time. It truly is impressive, and I know that it boils down to:

1. We work together well

2. We are utterly committed

3. Our entire team is just downright wonderful

Without this unity, without this commitment, without this glorious talent, we would not be where we are today - working hard to release our first Mini-VN to you in a little over a month.

So, as a message to my colleagues - You guys rock, and I am truly lucky to be a part of something so ethereal.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It is the Three Month Anniversary of the founding of Stewart-Class 7 Studios!

Crazy how time flies eh? I remember making the first post on here, and it feels like it was just yesterday, as cliche as that may sound. 

In celebration, I ask you to register on our forums c: All those who register within the next week will receive a celebration surprise - I promise you will like it :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So what's new with us, besides our daily progress?

Well, for one thing, we have a new artist! I'd announce them, but I'm certain they would like to do it themselves here real soon ;)

This person is absolutely brilliant at digital art, and we are more than ecstatic to have them on our team :D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, that's all for today! Look for another post tomorrow :3

Oh, and please spread the word? Like us on facebook, apply, whatever you can do :D

New Character & Art Threads On The Forum!

Hey guys, just a quick message from Red tonight. I've been feeling like we haven't been involving you all as much as we should in the development process, which sucks, since I love to hear your opinions on everything. This IS a game for you guys, after all. :P

So because of that, I took some time today to make an official character discussion thread, as well as an official art thread over in the General Discussion forum. Go and have a look, and feel free to post away as well, that's why they're there!

http://sc7cp.forumotion.com/t182-girls-of-coloco
http://sc7cp.forumotion.com/t183-character-art

Other than that, no news to report tonight. We're all hard at work, so things will be a little slower news-wise for a while. But have no fear! We're not abandoning you all, we're just busy as hell with making this game, specifically the mini-VN, as good as we can get it before we release.

In the mean time, be sure to keep an eye on the forums!

Hello from Mocha

I have never quite made an introduction on the blog before, so here it is! I am Mocha, one of the graphic designers for SC7 Studios.  My job is mainly design work such as the forum layout, banners, advertisements, backgrounds, logos, etc. Although I haven't been working with SC7 Studios for very long, I have already become attached to the team and the project. We do have our ups and downs, but everyone here is very nice and pleasant to work with.

As of now, what I'm currently working on mainly is the forum design. A few adjustments still need to be made that I'll be working on over the next week, but progress is definitely being made. :) My next project will most likely be advertisement affiliate banners and trying to get some other VNs to affiliate for more traffic, AND POSSIBLY some web design. We shall see.

Anywho, this isn't a very long update, but I thought I'd drop in and let everyone know what's up on my end.
Always forward, with spirit!
Mocha

You Want Music? I'll Give Ya Music!

Hey guys :D It's me, Judger - your favorite person ;)

I kid, but hey, if you haven't been reading our recent posts, be sure to do so - they're full of wonderful information.

Now, as we all know, music is a KEY part of the VN experience, and must be able to successfully convey feeling, while not overpowering the writing. Personally, the music of the VN can make or break it for me, and i gotta say...

Our composers have been kicking out some AWESOME stuff!! And I figured: "Hey, why not pass this onto you guys?" So, here is a preview of one of our completed pieces, "Meeting", by VSeven


Meeting


Glorious eh? :) We have a lot of varied pieces, and can't wait for you to hear and experience more in the future!


~~~

Oh, one last thing...

We could really use some character artists, so if that applies to you, please... apply :D (Stylistically, must be able to fit that of our head artist, Daru.)


AND PLEASE LIKE OUR FACEBOOK PAGE :D (Link is on the right)


~The_Judger

Our team through my humble pair of eyes (Via)

This project has been consuming most of my free time, which is both good and bad. Good, because it lets me focus on something I really like, bad, because it diminishes my social life. BUT, as I didn't have much of a social life in the first place... *cough* But, well, it's only been a month, but that's enough time to get to know the people I'm working with.

Let's speak first about Judger. Yeah, the same Judger that spams this blog with his announcements and thoughts. His love for this project has no comparison, Always Forward, as he always says, and, truth to be told, that passion has been slowly taking over me, for better or worse. He's a fun person to be with, talk with, and write with. He's always putting on these smilies, which makes you think that he's always in a good mood, and we've been getting closer as we make more and more in-character writing, specially those involving yu- *cough* involving... stuff.

He's really putting a lot of his heart into Layla. And passion. And everything he might have inside. Layla is a pretty well done character, an amazing backstory, and personally, I think she's the character people are mostly going to relate to. That's just me, as he seems to have a different opinion... To add something else, I see Layla as a pretty unstable girl, to tell the truth. You may see some of that in the mini VN. But that's a good quality, story wise, though a tad bit annoying when it comes to in-character stuff.

Then there's Red_B... He's a musicaholic. Basically, he doesn't seems to stop listening to music. At all. He writes with music, he thinks with music... I can even imagine him listening to music while he sleeps. That's the feel I have each time he talks about music. But that's good, as it works for him quite well, and I can always ask him if he knows a soundtrack or two that may help me write better. Oh, and he's a nice person. Really nice person.

For certain reasons I haven't been able to speak with IchiVictus a lot, but I have a good opinion on him. He makes his homework, he updates his scenes... he works, in other words. Through the first days of writing, I saw him updating scenes or uploading something knew, and I always told myself "Ugh, gotta do something like that or I'll fall behind". So, thanks, Ichi, thanks for making me work more than I wanted >_>. Again, nice guy, though I've yet to know him better.

Taco... Well... Haven't talked with her since the project started. Different reasons that'll be solved soon, I think.

And that's all for writers. I'm still thinking about their girls, so I can't give an opinion just yet. But you'll see them soon, don't worry.

...Wait, that's all?! No opinion on myself?! ...Oh, yeah, right, my narcissism would take over if I did... Not a nice sight.

See you later!

-Via_01

And Thus, It Was Layla!

Hey there guys :D I have a few pieces for you all tonight, so let's get right to it!

FIRST OFF: Check out the fancy new game logo up there^ 

SECOND: I have another to show you ;)

~ Thanks to Mocha!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As you all should know by now, we've been working on "Mini-VNs" for all of our heroines to release to all of you lovely people - these will serve the dual purpose of engrossing you into the world of CoLoCo, and also giving us something to show to our fans, proving our merit! :D

Now, we've been in an uproar lately deciding what to focus on, what to compose, what to reveal, etc., and we have finally, per vote, come to the conclusion of which heroine will have her mini released first, at The End Of The Summer (Our Plan).

That's right, say hello to Layla!

Layla's Mini-VN, No Rain, will be released at summers end. It's the real deal:

Full OST

CG and Sprites
Backgrounds
Extras
AND MORE

Now, we're planning full FMVs for CoLoCo itself, but sadly the Mini-VNs will not have these. (Though  a future downloadable add-on is always possible ;)

I know you guys will love what we're creating, and I hope my writing will satisfy you all as an initial release. I admit, writing for Layla has been a moving experience thus far, and I hope you will find it just as meaningful and moving as I have. 

Now, I am tired, and I must get to bed; Look for another update tomorrow! Thanks for reading guys, and why not give our forums a visit? :D


-The_Judger

Coming together well :3

Well hello, RangerDanger here with today’s update!

Well since the last update a mere few days ago, tons of progress has been made!  

 First of all I would like to congratulate daru on being selected as our Head Artist! Daru will be heading up our absolutely fantastic team of artists here at SC7 and will be providing the primary direction for all of the art in CoLoCo. 

In addition to that, the writing team has been making great progress on each of their mini VNs! Outlines are being finalized, scripts are being written/edited and over the next few days we will be deciding on which of the five mini VNs will be the first that will be released to you guys!

Also, be sure to keep an eye out for the new forum/blog designs and an official website (finally!) courtesy of our newest team member Mocha!

Well that’s about it for today’s new news!  So to close this blog update I would just like to thank everyone on the dev team for being so incredible and welcoming, and every one of you guys out there reading this. We certainly appreciate your support in this endeavor, and hope you will enjoy the project as much as we are :3

P.S. Judger likes bridal shops. That is all.

P.P.S. Make sure to drop by the forums and let us know what you think!

Studio Logo, New Art, and some Insight :D

Greetings all!

It's time for another update from me, The_Judger, and I think you'll like this one! ;D  (You better D:<)

So first off, if you noticed, we have our SC7 logo up now! :D Mocha, one of our glorious new designers, created it, and it fits perfectly! Everybody, cheers for Mocha and SC7!!


And now.......

~ Thanks to daru for the art!

There she is, Layla! :D As said before, nightly progress is made on our forums/IRC, and we can't wait to bring you our Mini-VN releases at the end of the summer!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I tend to write a bit differently from most people - I store up my inspiration in little "banks", which I use as fuel for later. Basically, while most tend to get inspired and then write, I tend to get inspired, then save it, then use different bits of each piece of inspiration later. Why do I do this? Well... it's just how I've always written, and it works for me.

Now, Layla is an interesting girl, and writing for her can be tricky, but it is ALWAYS enjoyable and moving. Being both a recluse and an energetic, sensual lass seems somewhat enigmatic, and indeed this is the case, but it blends together in a very believable fashion - you'll all get to find out very soon. While one of my goals in developing her character was to break some standard archetypes, ultimately, I just put my energy into molding a believable and "real" character, something I think that ALL of our writers have succeeded in doing.

Have you ever felt conflicted? Of course you have, everybody has; Life in many ways is black and white, whilst also being grey at the same time. How does this make sense exactly? *Subjectivity*
Ultimately, Layla is a conflicted person, knowing what she wants and how to get it, but feeling unable to do so - there is always something in the way, and I think we can all relate to this.

I'd love to talk more, but I must be going. Thanks for the read, and please stay tuned! My next post will give a little more detail into the musical side of Layla - in many ways, her truest form of self.

-The_Judger

I'm a Composer!

So, lets talk about music.  There is 3 of us, two guitarists and a pianist.  As much as this sounds like a set up for a bad joke, we're the real deal.  Two of us are studying music, all three with extensive knowledge in theory.

But enough about us.  What we are here to do is make the atmosphere complete.  Take for instance the film Star Wars.  Do you know how boring that film would be without the wonderful compositions of Mr. Williams?  It'd be terrible; nothing would draw you in.  In my own opinion, it would give me less to be distracted by, which would then allow me to get upset about physics and etymology.

We hope to create a wonderful soundscape for you to remember this journey by.  Please be kind to us, and we look forward to working with you.

~BeckWreck

So far So good

Looking back at that less-than-a-month time that I, Via, have been working in this project, I get amazed at how much we've progressed. I mean... I believe we didn't even have art when I started! Which goes to show the dedication we're puting on this.

Alright... We've said this enough times, but we're doing weekly progress. Writers are writing their stuff, artists are active and drawing concepts for our characters as we speak, and we even have some pretty good music all set and ready. Of course, programing and web designing are not staying behind either, or so said the elders at town. So, don't worry, we're doing okay and we'll have more stuff to show you soon.

Oh yeah, before I forget. Us writers, specially me and Judger, have been doing some in-character writing to grasp our characters better and get used to how they act when in certain situations. It's basically like doing some Role-playing, if it helps to understand the concept.

I guess that's it, oficially, but let me tell you a bit about myself, now that I have the opportunity, and mimicing what Red did some entries ago.

Let's see... you could say I'm a "positively negative" kind of person. In other words, I'm pretty positive around stuff, and though I don't speak too much, I'm still cheerful and confident about things. But I also tend to see all that's bad and wrong about the world. In fact, I can determine almost each and every negative point about something in no time. Which is kind of helpful when writing about Nadia: Y'see, she is a pretty negative girl, she has that same characteristic of mine that lets her see all the "darkness", so to say, around her. And unfortunately, she can't stay positive about it. Trying to make her understand the good side of the world is probably one of my goals for her.

Ooops, shouldn't say too much :P I guess that's all for now.

I'll be posting another entry soon, I hope! Until then!
