PSCD – Meet Rigel

Time to introduce another PSCD character. He’s the BxB romance, albeit not one of the heroes (he has no skills in battle).

Name: Rigel A. Luvene
Nation of Origin: Australia
Service Branch: Mechanic/Imperial Vehicle Maintenance

Description:
Among the newest arrivals to the colony, Rigel is the assigned mechanic for the colony’s vehicle hangar. Say what one might, Rigel is considered the best mechanic ever.

However, not everyone viewed Rigel’s arrival with pleasure, for Xavier saw the sable-haired man as a threat to his position. They soon became good friends when Rigel showed Xavier how he could get a 11% acceleration boost in his hovercycle, and extend his jumps by 20 meters. Soon, other people started to show up, making Rigel the goto person for modifying their vehicles and weapons.

Rigel is considered a bit aloof since he spends most of his time in the vehicle bay. Despite Rigel’s obvious skills, reported mechanical mishaps have increased over 50% in the colony. Some of the more cynical attribute this to owner sabotage, hoping Rigel will appear to repair the ‘broken’ vehicles.

When he can be pried away from vehicle bay, Rigel can be found avidly watching the hovercar races in the bar. Some of the few arguments he’s gotten in have been over just who the greatest hovercar driver is; Rigel will go to his grave believing it is Candace Shatz, three time winner of the Death Valley Rally.

This doesn’t mean Rigel eats, breathes, and sleeps oil. Rigel can often be found out among the dunes, the stark beauty reminding him of his earthly home.

Latest news about the other games

As you probably know, Seasons Of The Wolf is going the final testing stage, but is complete since a week. You can play it all and read all the story and unlock all the romances/achievements, even if is still in beta.
For how long will keep it in beta? I am not sure, but perhaps it could be released next Friday, the night of Halloween! That would be cool 🙂

However I’m not in a hurry at all, I want to test it well to make sure that when I officially put it live on my site will be (almost) bug free. Which for such a big game, isn’t an easy task 😉

C14 Dating is also going very well. Deji (main artist) is doing a great job drawing some animated chibis for the schedule activities. Below you can see a WIP of the game GUI done by Therese Yucamco (who did the GUI of Nicole as well):

Is taken from a gameplay video so the quality is not the best, but you can see already how cool it is! 🙂

I’m working also on other projects of course, but I don’t have any significant progress to show you this week. Stay tuned for next Friday!

C-14 dating casting!

3 Replies

Today was supposed to announce the official release of Roommates, but since the video is not yet ready, and today was a very hectic day for me for personal reasons (I am writing this blog post at 8PM when I usually have it ready early in the morning!) I think today will just show you the FULL CAST OF C-14 DATING instead!! Woohooo!

Melissa is the protagonist, while the other are the romanceable boys. Click the thumbnails to see a bigger image.

Melissa Flores

Occupation: 3rd year anthropology student

Languages: English, some Spanish

Not afraid to get her hands dirty, Melissa is an aspiring archaeologist who has signed up for a summer internship supervised by her professor. She’s an upbeat, friendly person who lives for the moment and enjoys new experiences. Although studying and theory may not be her strong points, she learns aptly through social interaction and getting involved. Loves dancing, meeting people, and asking questions.

Deandre Guillaume

Occupation: Rugby player, 4th year English student

Languages: French, English

Social and cultured, Deandre knows what it’s like to stay in a foreign country and reaches out to Melissa. He may seem carefree most of the time, but he’s serious about his education and has a back-up plan in case his rugby career cuts short. Although generally cheerful, he can get easily frustrated when irritated or stuck. Loves to cook.

Hendrik Luikenhuis

Occupation: Geologist

Languages: Dutch, French, English, a little German

Hendrik is the head geologist of Calen Cave, working under his uncle, Augustin Dupont. Rational and down-to-earth, Hendrik is very approachable and loves teaching the students participating in the excavation. He has an avid passion for his profession, often getting lost in his work. Loves good food and, of quartz, can’t help throwing in a geology pun or two.

Kyler LeGrand

Occupation: 4th year anthropology student

Languages: French Belgian Sign Language, French, English

Kyler is a goal-driven and diligent person planning on a career in archaeology after he graduates. He tends to keep to himself, only speaking willingly when it’s about… archaeology. It’s hard to see underneath his aloof exterior since his stubbornness and judgmental attitude makes it difficult to connect to people. And what luck, he’ll be stuck digging next to the outgoing Melissa!

Shoji Toussaint

Occupation: 1st year university student, major undecided

Languages: French, English

Shoji is a quiet, timid individual who prefers to have his nose in an e-book, handheld, or sketchpad. Although reluctant to engage in conversation, he opens up when the topic involves video games. He’s extremely sensitive and empathetic to the people around him, and gets easily overwhelmed in social situations. Likes being helpful, but struggles with his lack of confidence.

There can be other minor characters, but those are the main ones 🙂

What is C14 Dating?

First of all I want to remind you that Roommates beta is still going. Most bugs have been fixed so if you wanted to wait to play it, now I really think you can. More info here: http://www.winterwolves.com/roommates.htm
(we’re adding happy endings for Dominic and Sally in the next days)

New otome dating sim game: C-14 Dating!

I’m proud to announce a new game! Here’s a presentation by KittyKatStar (the writer):

“C-14 Dating (tentative title) is an upcoming otome dating sim that combines archaeology, friendships and love.

You play as Melissa Flores, a 3rd year anthropology student participating in a summer archaeological internship. The field school takes place in Belgium, over 5000 miles away from your native California! Okay, it’s a little bit out of your comfort zone, and the fact you’ll be staying in an unfamiliar country for two months can be nerve-racking, but you couldn’t pass up such a learning opportunity! You get to excavate at an authentic prehistoric site, which has uncovered Neanderthal remains in the past.

Maybe you’ll dig up some bones, or even unearth tools that were manufactured by early humans. And of course, you might forge friendships and find romance during your stay…”

What do you think? not bad eh? 😉

The game is not finished obviously, but I waited to announce it until it was in a more advanced state (to avoid being called cruel because I announce games when they’re going to be released years later!).

As you probably have noticed already, the character art is being drawn by the awesome Deji, a guarantee of quality!

In the coming week will do other posts introducing the various characters of the cast. Gameplay-wise will be similar to my other dating/life sim Always Remember Me or Nicole.

The game is otome, but there are plans to make a yuri version, even if not sooner than next year, since both the writer and artist will be busy with Spirited Heart 2 after this game is out 😉
