" I've been living in this city for more than 10 years now. I'm not a rookie in journalism anymore. This city has so much to cover in the news, that I made almost 80 % of all my career on it.

And I have to say, more than one time, its tall skycrapers, its neon lights and its people try to suck me me in, In its concrete entrails, inbetween its metalic bones, but I've always stayed true to myself.


They say that the name " Skyline City" was chosen in order to get closer to heaven. So high in this thick and poluted atmosphere that the city forgot the filth it has its feet in.

It's an enigmatic nest of corruption, deeply rooted in black market. We all know it, but what can you do when ten cops out of eleven are just corrupted to the bone...?

Nothing.

You can just hope that:

One, you don't get caught putting your nose too deep into corruption.

Two, you find people to trust and to deliver the real information the the honest citizens.


I'm not done with you, Skyline City, oh no....wait and see. I am not the only one to see clear through the darkness of your backalleys.

I have this gut feeling that something big is coming..." Tina Fidzgerald Journalist for the Report Zone.


Note from Ash : It has been quite tough those past days, quarantine is hitting me hard i think. The work load too. So I decided to take it easy. I've been working on this huge BG piece for the game. I'm pretty proud of it so far. One of my best piece ever did.

So yesterday Ash and I finished the day 1 of the writing for the game. We've never attempted anything like this before except in roleplaying sessions with friends and is not remotely the same.


The thing with this is basically you're roleplaying with multiple characters and everyone must have their reactions acordingly to their personalities. It's a lot of writing and checking if the player answer X, -this- has to happen, if the player answered Y, -this- other thing has to happen. If the player did a certain thing at the beginning of the game it affects the end...and such and such. It's hard to track!


I have no idea or skills in writing but I hope I'm doing a good job and making things fun and interactive.




I've finally finished the main cast for the game! The first 3 are the main characters that you can end up dating if you want and the 4th one is one of the complementary characters that will appear, but with a later possibility to date if the bigger game happens.


For now I can say I'm happy with the designs, like always I feel like I could better this or improve that, but I have to let go and keep going with the other characters, if not I'll never finish.


I also was careful in making them ALL look different, trying to evade at all costs the horrid "Same Face Syndrome" and also make different body types with different proportions.


All these will have or already have multiple blinks and mouth shapes, depending if they're happy, sad, neutral etc. As well as different outfits depending on where they are.


I hope to present them soon in color and implemented in game, for now theyre just linearts.


For now I feel like I've reached a personal milestone since I've never done anything like this before.
