Ok so I said I was on holidays… 😀 but I really can’t stay idle for too long, so I had this new idea for an adventure game based on 17th century sea travels. I am writing it right now, in my native language, then I’ll have it translated. I’m still thinking if to have it translated into several more languages, since for adventures the language can be a big barrier (not everyone knows english, but still likes to play adventures or simply read stories).

The adventure will be still in the form of visual novel (so not really a pure adventure because the object manipulation and solving quests with items won’t be present). In a way, will be different from Summer Session, because of the settings but also it won’t be a pure dating sim, and also this time you’ll take the role of Heileen, a very cute but shy blonde english girl. There will be a romance, and some really funny characters. But more about that soon in future posts.

You might notice a sort of improvvise shift in my games. Well that’s true. I tried to make complex games like UBM, Magic Stones and Supernova 2. But honestly, I have to pay my bills 😀 so, for my future games I’m really taking a more casual approach. That won’t mean worse games, quite the opposite. More intuitive games, still with a good set of rules (except the adventures of course) and more attention to the graphic part.

Just take a look at the main menu background art at Heileen official site, to understand what I mean.

No, I don’t think I’ll use poser models anymore in my future games!

For those who loves RPG don’t worry. I’m going to develop another game similar to Magic Stones hopefully next year. It will contain several card sets based on races (human, dwarves, amazons, and so on). You can admire a card image of an amazon necromancer here:

Not bad, isn’t it? definitely better than my usual Poser art ! 😉
