Reveal time!


100th post! I'm surprised that this topic has gotten so much attention in such a short amount of time and I'm really glad tbh ;w; Thank you guys so much for your support so far!



I haven't done an update in a week and I feel a little bad about it, but I've been doing some other stuff in the meantime for the game as well.


Either way, I feel like I should reveal this design now; May I present to you the first Splicer Admin: Sierra!

Sierra is one of the admins of Team Splicer. As her clothes may already imply, she's very feminine and likes to dress up fashionably. However, that does not stop her from being one of the smartest people from Splicer, which allowed her to climb up the ranks as fast as she did. As for personality, she's pretty calm and collected and seems pretty indifferent towards a lot of things, but isn't afraid in the slightest to retort and stand up for herself if someone thinks they can just waltz over her (especially if it's regarding her being so feminine).



As for in-game sprites, this is how she'll look!

The information about her in this post will be added to the OP as well, so you can always find it back there.



Now, as for the music for her fight... Err, yeah, about that.


...I still haven't made it. BUT I'LL TRY TO HAVE IT DONE SOMEWHERE THIS WEEK BECAUSE I FEEL BAD THAT I DIDN'T HAVE MUSIC FOR THIS UPDATE OKAY QQ


To make up for it, I'll show off some of the other graphics that will appear in the game! I'm sorry that I can't show off much more but I swear I'll get to the music again soon ;w;



ANYWAYS HERE'S SOME STUFF

Now, that's it for the major reveals! All of the important V1 official artwork is done aside from Professor Laurel, but her artwork will be shown off at a later point since Laurel herself only appears briefly in V1, and therefore doesn't really count as a major character for the first release. By the next update I hope to have one or two songs done, so bear with me!



In other news, I've also put up a poll since I want to know which character design you guys like the best so far, just out of curiosity, so I'd love to see your answers! Also, school is starting on monday again so I probably won't be able to get as much work done in the meantime, but I'll try to still do a weekly update at the very least!



Thank you for reading!

Just a quick note; I've now also started throwing the soundtrack on Youtube, so you can find it here as well! I'm still making some of the videos for it though, so they'll be steadily uploaded, but eventually most songs will be able to be found on there.

I'll also add a link to the playlist in the OP :]

Ok, I am very upset with myself that I didnt even know this was a thing until now, lol, Zumi I'm happy you've started your own project of you and i'm freaking pumped for this, I hope you have plans to implement different difficulty modes.

Hahahaha, it's fine! Seriously though, I'm glad to hear you're excited. And yes, I am actually planning to add difficulty modes in V2 or V3, just most likely not in V1 due to the high workload of V1.

Glad to see your projects, Zumi! I like how you used 4th gen tiles to give different atmosphere from Reborn and Rejuv also custom music, yay! Although if I may suggest something, I prefer 6 pokemons for first gym. If you don't want it to be so difficult maybe the extra 1 pokemon can have a weird unsuitable set? Anyway, good luck with your project!

HM. Really can't say why I did not find this earlier.

Anyway, as I've said multiple times, great work, Zumi. The designs are cool, and I like the way the theme of Splicer is turning out to be. I wonder what Palkia has to do with DNA, I wonder if it splices it with spacey-stuff, I wonder if I can finally know the identity of the steel leader....

I look forward to it.

I really love it so far!

But for some reason it doesn't feel fitting for Seirra, but that's just my opinion...

I can't wait for the full version!

...i honestly have to agree with you on the strikethrough part actually

i just listened to what i have right now and tbh it needs a LOTTTTT of tweaking because i... honestly made it sound more like some final boss shit than just an admin theme

(in case you're curious why, i have another wip right here and it got even worse)

it's 2 am i probably should not make music at 2 am or i'm gonna end up overdoing this kind of stuff apparently im laughing

it'll probably sound much more different when finished, so yeah it's probably better to just take this as it is for now and expect something different for the finished product akjshdgkajshgask

im so tired please kick my ass to bed

Sierra all the way. I can see sprite improvement has been going on from the looks of Sierra's sprite

A bit of a late reply, but it's true! The first sprites I made for Sierra were made all the way back in May 2015, so it's actually been about 9 months between making the sprites and her design, which is why I thought having to redesign Team Splicer was a necessity since I came up with much better ideas.

I think I made the first designs for splicer somewhere at a time of... midnight or something without thinking of multiple designs

whoops

ITERATIVE WORK IS IMPORTANT IN COMING UP WITH A GOOD DESIGN OR SO I LEARNT DURING LAST BLOCK AT SCHOOL AKJDGASKJD

Okay this should sound a bit better already tbh

i still have to fix the bass and the drums since they're a bit too loud, but i'll fix that tomorrow. I also will add more to the song before it loops itself again and it also sounds a LOT less final boss-y.

Still, feedback would be appreciated so if you got any please do tell so I can work on it when I continue tomorrow!

It sounds better. Good job, Zumi! Well I'm not good with music but personally I want to up the pich a little bit and adding some piano in the background. Also a question: is Team Splicer has anything to do with DNA Splicer (or similar idea: modifying the pokemon gene, afterall the title say it, oh well I'm just rambling)?

Neat! I'll see about upping the pitch actually, I'll test it out when I get home :]

And regarding the whole deal with Splicer... That's something that has yet to be seen, so I'm keeping my mouth shut about it~

I'm not stopping you from theorizing though, I like to see what you guys think they're up to c:

Small update, but I finished making the map for V1, so take a look!

The map will be updated with new locations as the game expands, and there'll be plenty more places to explore once it does, so look forward to seeing more~

will we be going to all of those locations in V1/E1/whatever?

One of them won't be accessible yet, but it DOES serve a purpose in some way. You'll have to wait till V2 to be able to go to that place, but all the other locations in the game will be accessible!
