I've finished coding the romance ending screen. No spoilers! even the text is temporary/not finished. But I'm wondering about the font I used, is it readable enough? I can read it without problems and I like the style, but...

if it stays that size it is fine, but if it will be say half that size I could see some people having trouble reading it. I think it is lovely

Well since the game will be likely out also on Android I'm probably going to look for a more readable font

in that case I would consider a serif typeface as they are easier to read at any size

No I want to keep the old book style though!

well I found a better font but now ran into a Ren'Py bug lol the character at the beginning of each line is truncated as you can see. Maybe I need to just use a normal font

Pitty, that is a pretty font. Keep trying

By the way the bug was fixed, was a Ren'Py bug, wasn't a problem of the font. For now the coder told me a workaround to it which seems to work fine. So I used the font above
Also, I've just asked thesleepykitten if she can finish writing the last part of the yuri version, since previous writer couldn't finish it

Basically I'm playing through Heileen 1/2, and reading what's finished for Heileen 3. Once I'm comfortable with the characters and the scenes that need to be finished, I'll be working on them. =) So hopefully the yuri version won't be delayed for too long. ^_^v

FINALLY! I can post a screenshot with a background image
it's the bridge by night (there's also a version by day with seagulls).

Take your time, I would rather the yuri version be done right, then done quickly
About the picture, it's beautiful Jack, very atmospheric with the lantern lit deck of a ship late at night, I like it.

Thanks. I'm trying a big some new background artists since I want to have decent backgrounds for future games. This one so far seems good

A puzzled Heileen walking across the bridge. She wonders why that big muscly man is sitting by himself! Wow the image! Yikes I can't wait to get my hands on this game but I agree with Sylrissa: I too would rather the yuri version be done right, then done quickly.

Don't worry I'm quite sure that Sarah (sleepykitten) will do the yuri version very well. She played the first two titles, and based on what I've read so far for Spirited Heart 2 (another game she's writing for) she can definitely write romance well. So don't put too much pressure on her

No worries, no rushing from me, promise. =)

She finished Juliet! Going to read it now

Haha well, I just read the first scenes only for now, but I can assure you that you don't have to worry about the writing
Just a few lines from a scene where Heileen needs to teach Juliet accounting, and she is wearing a night outfit:
"I approached Juliet and took a seat next to her, trying my best not to gaze at her toned legs."
"Papers were shuffled around, but my mind is unable to register that while I admired her curves and her flat stomach."
"The night gown was so sheer on her, that a simple slice from a sword would cause the outfit to pool around her legs..."
...interesting stuff, isn't it?
