New Sprite Additions/Chapter 3 details

Ahoy mateys! Build 3 is already in progress, but I want to take this moment to describe a little bit of what it will be like. For Chapter 2, the focus was on story and action, kickstarting the MC's life as a pirate and delving into everyone's pasts. For Chapter 3, my plan is to slow it down a little, focusing a bit more on the crew and how they ...

High Seas Chapter 2 has arrived!

Ahoy mateys! Chapter 2 of High Seas is finally here! In this chapter, titled "The Last Breath," the crew deals with the aftermath of the end of Chapter 1, then visits a new location and gets up to all sorts of trouble. Connections are formed, others are lost, and everyone gets a chance to reveal a little more about themselves!

What's new:<...

Chapter 2 progress + upcoming CG sketch

Ahoy mateys! I know it's been a while since the last update, but I want to assure y'all that work is very much underway. Chapter 2 is around 30,000 words long, which is twice the size of Chapter 1, so there's a lot of juicy story content for sure! There will be a route for each of the four main romanceable characters, plus a lot of plot and acti...

Edward sketches and WIPs by Astarlos

Here's the final round of character sketches by Astarlos! This time, we get to learn a bit more about the biggest boy of all, Edward. His design might have been simple from the get go, but it's no less full of life. Plus, an exclusive look at that pan on his back that you may not even have noticed was there the whole time!

Captain Blackhorn WIP sketches by Astarlos

Thanks so much for your support, everyone! Right on schedule, here are the next batch of WIPs and sketches by Astarlos, featuring none other than the Captain himself! There's even a bit of a bonus at the end, for those curious about what he's hiding :p. The Captain was one of the hardest designs to pin down, but I'm very proud of the result. I w...

High Seas Chapter 2 release

Ahoy mateys! I've been working steadily on Chapter 2 of High Seas, which is looking likely to be a substantial update, much larger than the first one for sure. I've wanted to release this update in April, though I want to offer y'all another option since I'm completing this update in increments anyways. Do you want a full release later on, or wo...

Isaiah WIPs/alt colors by Astarlos

For the second wave of behind-the-scenes leaks, please enjoy these sketches and alternatives for the salty old sea dog himself, Isaiah! His design certainly afforded a lot of creativity, though I opted for something simple in the end.

Mac's WIP sprites by Astarlos

As a celebration for me finally making my Patreon public, I thought I'd start by posting some old WIP sketches Astarlos did, way back when we were still designing the characters. This is an alternate costume, plus some alternate colors. What do you think, do you still love Mac's current design, or do you think these old ones would have been cool...

A cover image for itch.io

Just a little something to kickstart the Patreon account. Astarlos did all the art in this one, I just put it together and made a gif out of it. Hope y'all are looking forward to the VN's release in January!
