Post-Inciting Incident Update

5/31/2016

8 Comments

 
Yo, everyone! It's been a while.

As of late, our team has been pretty busy with school/work, but now that summer break is rolling around again we should be spending more time on development for Lucid9!

A question that we get asked frequently is when the next part(s) of L9 will be completed. (And after reading that cliffhanger, it's only natural to ask.) At the moment, we still can't give an estimate considering how much work is left to be done, but what I can give you are updates like these about our overall progress. I'll try my best to keep them somewhat consistent, especially now that we have a sizable following. :3 


Since Inciting Incident's release, we've received a fair amount of feedback. (We do make an effort to read them all, by the way.) Thanks to some constructive criticism, we have a clearer idea of what to improve on for the next part(s) of Lucid9, so I have to give a big THANKS to those who took the time to share their thoughts on our work. 

Now onto what Fallen Snow Studios has been up to lately~

We're currently focusing most of our attention on developing the plot. As mentioned in previous posts, we have the general structure of the routes set, but a good portion of it still needs to be fleshed out. Recently, our writers had two big meetings discussing Yama's character progression in the routes, and the meetings—as with most of our meetings—lasted roughly around 3-5 hours. So yeah, it's a bit of a challenge to schedule them at convenient times. ^_^'

Concerning the art, we've given our artists a few references for what would likely be needed post-Inciting Incident, but asked that they don't start until the routes are 100% solidified. I'll be sure to share some of the sketches when they're made available. 

As for the music, most of the tracks for Lucid9 have already been completed, but I do believe our composers still wanted to go back and mix them again for better quality. If you weren't aware of it before, you can listen to the full OST here at our YouTube channel.

​In other news, our female sprite artist, DizzyWorld2, is attending A-kon this week! She'll be selling some merchandise (both L9 related and unrelated), so please be sure to visit when you have the time. Anyone who orders $10 or more from her table or recommends Lucid9 to someone they know will receive a free Lucid9 print! You can find more info at this link here: http://puu.sh/p71eY/c63b6795f2.png

Amazing. I can't even use words to describe it. Couldn't have asked for any greater introduction to visual novels than Lucid9! To do all this with 0 budget is beyond me. I trust your decisions and will be patiently awaiting for the following part.

The fact you delayed this release for quality checking astounds me. It proves you really do care about your product unlike most of the developers I've seen over the years.

Love you guys,
Coco

Thank you so much for your support!

(And yeah, there seems to be an issue with the comment system on Weebly. Will look into it.)

Lucid 9 is the first visual novel that I read, at first I was hesitant to continue with it due to it being so slow at first(fillers), but when the story picked up, I was so hooked into reading more and that my only enemy is that, if I read it all the way, there'd be no more for me to read.

Kudos to those who works and helps to Lucid 9 without any pay for doing so, keep it up you guys, you guys are doing an awesome job.

Oh yeah, one more thing..where can I download some tracks?(MP3 type) or can I? (Huslte & Bustle, Rationality, Vision from my soul)

Thank you <3

Sorry for the late response!

One of our goals were to introduce people to visual novels, so it's really nice to hear that Lucid9 was your first VN.

As for your question, we're currently working on making mp3s for the soundtrack. There'll be more news on that in the next blog post, so please stay tuned!

And thanks for your support!

Loved Lucid 9, & I can't wait for the nexr part, I was going to make/ or i cooment in a discussion on the steam forum discussion page for this, its looks like I no longer need to. Also if the quality of the sequel is anything like the 1st I'm sure most would be totally happy paying & supporting you guys, & you may have gartered that from your reviews as well, plus im sure if the sequel is a priced game, steam trading card could be enabled which is always for collectors & completionists buffs, plus the art style of this game, & im sure many fans would love to have Lucid 9 trading cards, plus we just want to support the devs. of a great VN, or at least I do, I can't speak for all, but I probably speak for quite a few.

Any other way to obtain those prints? Those are great and I really want it.

Also, here's hoping for the next installment.

Our artist ran out of prints during the con, unfortunately. They won't be available until sometime next year. I'll be sure to give an update if that ever changes, though!
