Hey Everyone!
I thought it was Thursday again! What is wrong with meeee? Why is my brain doing this!?
To be fair, I also slept really late today for some reason so I guess I was tired. I had interesting dreams though. That's always fun.
Anyway, on to the updat...
2020-01-17 05:46:14 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! Just wanted to do a quick post to show you all what I'm working on this week. I am struggling with a scene in Caissa's route so I'm taking a short break from writing to do other things.
One of these things I've already shown some people but the others are new.

Hey Everyone!
Sorry I'm late again! ;A; Omg. I don't know why I keep waking up on Friday morning and being incredibly certain it's Thursday morning! This is weird. >=V
At some point my brain will readjust and then I'll probably start thinking Thursday morning is ...
2020-01-10 09:05:00 +0000 UTC View PostYuu is one of our Kickstarter stretch goals. We've talked about him a fair amount on the server but as the player doesn't get a chance to interact with him at all in the common route, I decided to post some snippets and information about him.
I have posted snippets and things about him on t...

Esh here, with our post-Christmas dev log and the last update of 2019!
It's been a really crazy year, hasn't it?
In the last half of 2018, I moved overseas to Australia where I've now been living for over a year. 2019 involved a lot of just adapting to Australia and ge...
2019-12-27 01:27:13 +0000 UTC View PostSo way back when I first started working on Gilded Shadows, I floated the idea of the player being able to make some choices regarding Morgan's back story. Specifically, the things I considered at the time were in regards to what Morgan is studying in school as well as how close she is to her fam...

Hey Everyone!
Esh here with another patreon devlog.
As some of you know, the last few weeks have been incredibly difficult for me. It's sort of been one thing after another, with the "things" getting progressively worse.
I feel like my productivity has been pr...
2019-12-19 23:08:47 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! I'm contemplating Rory...and his hairstyle.
While Rory appears in the demo and common route with rather long, scraggly hair, he can potentially show up again in Jack's route with his hair cut (as he's cleaned himself up a bit at that point.)
Initially I started playing a...

Here is this week's full devlog. Sorry for the delay - as some of you know, we've been in the process of moving for a couple of weeks and this weekend was the big "MOVE ALL THE STUFF" thing. It's been utterly exhausting.
We're in the new house now - just have to fi...
2019-12-08 06:31:33 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone! I'm just checking in to let you all know that as we are in the process of moving, I haven't had time to write up my usual epic ramble. It will probably be Sunday or maybe even Monday before I really have time.
A quick run down is:

So some of you know that we definitely do not have a side project going on right now.
Okay, we do.
I wanted to share a bit about it. You see, recently...I had a dream. Now for those who've known me for a while, you'll know my dreams can be very vivid, very deta...

2019-11-14 22:51:19 +0000 UTC View PostJust a rough draft snippet from the common route - chapter four. Figured I'd share a little look at whats to come in the next chapters. I wanted to share a snippet of Chapter Three instead, but there's a lot more branching going on through that section so it's a big difficult to show off a cohesi...

2019-10-31 23:25:24 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! Just wanted to do a post showing the process of creating Caissa's intro CG. The intro CGs are pretty simple since it's just a close up of the guy. Ari's was probably the most complex since it's kind of a vaguely actiony moment. And I would say Caissa's was the simplest as a whole. 2019-10-28 14:01:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Just a flat sketch with no BG, but here is Caissa's introductory CG for Gilded Shadows!
This will be the CG the player can unlock after meeting him in Chapter Two. OwO
