♥ NaNoRenO Week 1 ♥

Hi Everyone! ♥

Here's my devlog for week 1 of NaNoRenO! 

- Off to a rough start - 

PHEW! Week one's been a little rough (At least on my end). I had every intention to start off strong, but it was an unforgiving first week- (Dizziness, Hormonal episodes, the whole shebang)  and now writing this on day 7, I'm at the start of a cold haha;

HOWEVER!! in terms of progress, Zoe's been doing the heavy lifting this week, giving me a lot of cute art to show.

She started with these roughs of the 2 main sprites:

Her roughs are so clean!!

And then I got to work trying to think of a way to use them for the cafe scene I wanted to do. I  stumbled across something I felt worked well- an overlay! So I can have Hina's sprite AND everyone else on screen in a way I felt worked.

Lovely overlay + bg  art by yours truely.

- Adding to the 2 syllable name cast-

I don't think I've officially said it anywhere, but Nala's new (future) GF's name is Hina! (I'm sure you could have figured it out since it's the only new name in the mix) So I'll just be referring to her by that.

- More cute Zoe art-

Zoe continued working through the week and now I have these adorable side-images for the rest of the cast!

I'm OBSESSED with these they are so cute. I love them so much thank u zoe

And then she pretty much finished the sprites for Nala and Hina both too!:

They both have (at least) 2 outfits- Nala's will be showcased next week!!

- Writing Progress-

Throughout the week, I managed to write about 1.7k words. Not as much as I'd like, but with how rubbish I've felt, I'm not gonna dwell on it.  Truthfully,  I'm feeling a little lost as to how to make all of this come together, too. Turns out writing 2 girls who are nice to each other on their own is harder for me than two boys who bicker around other characters!!

But I'll perservere!! By this time next week (As long as I'm feeling better) I should have a lot more done.I have more environmental factors planned, which should work out fun. I'm confident I can get it all written, as long as I can catch a break haha;

In the meantime, please look at Zoe's adorable art!! I'm in love with the assets so far, I'm so excited!!

Thank you for reading! ♥

(Hopefully next week I'll be able to do more of my part.)
