I decided to do a bit of blogging about the development of Fading Hearts and Sakura River in general.
First thing I'd like to talk about is how some people got the impression that we're bigger than we really are. It's probably a sign of the talent we got working on the project which is really great. But we got less people working on it than at least one VN free project out there. We're far more indie than you guys think.
For those who are wondering where is Fading Hearts Parallel V2 is, it's being worked on as it's going to be very different from V1. We're still waiting for the art assets to come in for the full Fading Hearts game. We were testing various things from Fading Hearts Parallel and got information.
For those of you who missed V1, getting ending 1 in Parallel V1 probably caused a lot of hairs to be pulled. It was like having a really hard bonus boss in RPGs to be a boss in the main storyline. "That one boss" so to speak. While we still want to include really hard-to-find secrets in our products, we'll make them 'optional' in that you don't have to find them to get "100%" completion. So that means we'll probably have 100% +X% completion ratings in future projects.
Also, we'll probably include something like achievements in the Fading Hearts so that people know when they have done something right.
That's it for now. It's time to get back working now.
