The storyline is unrelated to the main game, following a man named Shiv Raker who is exploring Marin and gathering stories and experiences from the refugees, giving the reader an impression of the heroines. However, our programmer is having a bit of fun with it himself and is sneaking one or two easter eggs here and there for you to look for.
It's a bit of an experiment for us as well; we're planning to follow a new direction with the artstyle for the project and this allows us to see how it would work in motion and hear your feedback on it before we begin serious work on the main game's assets. The current sprites are only a placeholder for what we intend to have in the final piece, but will present a general feel for the direction we hope to take. We're looking forward to any comments or pointers you'll have on it.
As for the main story, our writers have also been collaborating on a definite script for act 1 and deciding which order and flow best fits for introducing the player, and Vincent, to the city of Marin. We've also fleshed out a few scenes within act 1 and gotten some foundation laid with regards to both interaction between characters and with their environment.
We're still continuing to work the many kinks out of our creative process, and we hope you look forward to meeting your moeblob soon.
I just can't get over how bad Dubs' art is.
