Echo Everstone designs

Some character design progression! I tend to fiddle with the designs, especially the face, until the last minute. I sometimes tone down the weird faces since for this game I need a range of expressions from each character!

Grimoire's body

Here are some early drawings of possible shapes for Grimoire himself. His new model took me to longest to decide on, since I wanted to be completely happy with him from head to toe.

That's right, we now have an official Facebook page for Detective Grimoire!

Check it out, come and say hello and see what's cooking.  

(We'll have news, development info, exclusive images, behind the scenes treats and more!)

In other news, here is a mysterious photograph of some eyebrows...

Onion Skins

Here are some onion skins! I finished animating the character for the dialogue in the game.

Sorry about no news posts. I've been busy! :) Grimoire is going great, I'll get some exciting stuff up soon

Ending Sequence

I'm working on the ending of the game right now! So I can't really show you anything!

You can just try to guess what Grimoire is so suprised about:

Clues and Areas

Images for you

I never know exactly what to show on here, so here are a bunch of images from all over my computer!

Information and Design

 Lately I've been wrestling with the information in the story, trying to break it down into different sections and get my head around exactly what we're telling the player, and when, and how - and what it looks like when we do. It's more difficult than animating! Hopefully when we get this all completely finalised, it will be much easier to put it all together.

Meanwhile, Catherine continues to produce amazing background designs - this game is going to have some serious atmosphere, I look forward to playing it in the dark at night by myself.

Action!

Everything you see is still potentially work-in-progress. Enjoy!
