Entropic Float Biweekly Update #2

Hi guys! Since the last update, I've made good progress! I'll share it in the same format as last time, breaking down how much work I've done on each category.

Writing:

Since last time I've written three segments- The last shared segment and both endings for Amelie's noon route! That's right, the second of nine routes is completed. And I'll be starting the next one right away!

Talksprites:

I've now made the full talksprite sets for JJ, Stephanie, and Abel! I wouldn't consider my talksprite progress to be 100% just yet, since I know I'm going to need a few here and there for specific situations, but as far as the main sets go, this is complete!

Voice Acting:

Since the last update I received lines for Madeline, and recorded my own lines for Kanatsun!

Amelie, True, JJ, and Touko have all been cast, and I am waiting to receive lines.

Abel has still not been cast yet.

Background Images:

I've finished making the rec room puzzle! Here's one of the CGs from that room as a preview.

Background Music:

I've added 1 track since the last update. "Righteous Family" is a BGM associated with Touko and Shinjiro Nozomi.

Thanks for tuning in to this biweekly update! Since Labor Day is tomorrow and I haven't got any plans, I feel confident saying that in the next update I'll have at least two more segments written, kicking off the process of Amelie's nighttime route. Once that's done it'll be onto the Kanatsun routes, though I doubt I'll get that far by the next time you see me. Until then!

Entropic Float 2: Character Reveal and Kickstarter Date!

Entropic Float 2... Characters! They're here! The video above shares some songs to help you get the feel on their personalities- And their profiles are available too! I've also been hard at work to get the demo ready before the Kickstarter, which I've decided to launch on 11/11/2023 ! Below, you can see the first talksprite for good ol' Kanatsune Ame. To temper expectations a bit- The demo will only cover the beginning of the game. The 'exposition loop', if you will. Several of these characters won't be appearing yet, and certain loop-related features will, well, not exist because there is no second loop to implement them on. It should, however, give you an idea of what the story's going to be, and how the main point-and-click gameplay will work. Just enough of a taster to let you know that EF2 is worth getting made! And I mean... Even if the Kickstarter fails, I'll make it anyway. It just might take me a good bit longer, and might miss out on some...

Entropic Float Biweekly Update #6

Happy Halloween to those who celebrate! Here we have some lovely themed art of Shinji by Tree Dorothy on Skeb ! This update, I have a few pieces of exciting news! The first is unrelated to the game development itself, but I've recently gotten a new job that should give me more opportunity to work on Entropic Float each weekend. The second, much more relevant update is that I've officially partnered with Starfield Gaming , the developer of Heart Fragment ! While we've already been working together for some time now, Entropic Float will now officially be releasing as a Starfield title when the time comes! And if you're looking forward to that day, I'd definitely recommend giving Heart Fragment a shot in the meantime. It's a Psychological Otome Game that, as of the time of writing this update, has two fully completable routes (with more on the way!) and is 50% off of its usual price, only five dollars for quite a bit of content- And the art is prettier than Entrop...

Entropic Float 2 Demo And Kickstarter Launch!

Picture a point-and-click adventure game. Now picture a branching, time-looping ontological mystery visual novel. Entropic Float 2 combines those into its gameplay concept: A point-and-click where you can never solve every puzzle at once. Where you have one key that fits two locks... And the only way to see what's behind the lock you didn't choose is to die, repeat the day, and try something different this time. With only you and your protagonist aware of the loop, seek an answer that earns new information. Through trial and error, solutions and murder... Can you find the way through this new Anomaly? In early 2021, I started working on a project just for fun. Using the character creator and scene assembly tools of Illusion's Koikatsu, paired with the visual novel engine ren'py, I decided to learn to make a VN. A year and a half, over three hundred thousand words, and quite a bit of pocket money later, I released 'Entropic Float: This World Will Decay And Disappear...
