ACR, lore development.

Hello everyone!

I wanted to share some exciting news around something that all the lore enjoyers (and everyone that like the girls anyways!) will like :

A game, yes, a game!

Let me now go in detail and explain everything as much as I can.

When I started all of this, my main goal was to have fun developing skills around AI generation and try to improve my creativity with the stories and girls lore. The thing is, I want now to go much deeper into the latter, but using only text or even complete set to explain specific parts of their past isn't the way to go for me, and it would endup being chaotic and going everywhere. I needed something that could be contained in one place, and also, very important : interactive.
I actually want people to "live" their past, to be an actual part of it to have the best immersion possible.

The best idea for this, for me, is to build a game, like an interactive novel, where you are the "hero" and make choices that impact the future of the playthrough. But I don't want it to include "bad choices" like existing game, but more like variations, so you can truly experience the girls behaviours, demeanours, know how they react to different things and such.

My first idea was to build something that was Celes' POV, but even if it could be funny for me to do, I don't think that's the better choice and what I really want. My ultimate goal is that people can feel like they know them, that they shared moments together etc. So the "you" POV is more fitting.

My expectations for this are high, but even though they are, I don't think I would include any animations or videos at this time, mainly because I don't know if I will be able to be consistent with that, and it's too much work for a very low quality result today.
What I want to build is the most consistent and immersive sets that can be unlocked or partially unlocked behind player choices. Even if I don't want to be too chatty, I want all the writings to have a meaning, even if it's just a random chatting, I want the player to feel like they are a part of that universe. Once again, I bet everything into immersion.

Now I know some might want to know when something like that would be available : I will have to be honest with you here, I have absolutely no idea at the time I am writing those lines. I have a lot of ideas, written and "gameplay" mechanics already, nothing is made yet, it's a huge brainstorming still. It's probably something I wouldn't start fully before I'm done with my actual job (end of June) and yet even if I can invest a lot of time and effort on it starting July, it may take a long time to be fully done.
I still wanted to share this news with all of you because seeing this community growing is heartwarming for me and gives me a lot of motivation to go forward, and more importantly, try to improve myself to give you the best content I can!

I hope you will be able to support me through this journey, any feedback when asked (or even if I don't) is more than welcome, and again, my goal is to immerse you on my universe the best way possible! I really hope this new coming tool will help with that and if you have any questions that I might already be able to answer, don't hesitate!

If you can, want, to share this Patreon to people you think that might like it, it could also help me way more than you can imagine. Expect more infos on it anytime I feel like it's worth giving them!

I'm very excited with it and I'm sorry for this very long post, I feel like I didn't say much, but if I had you would be there for hours lmao
Please tell me anything you had in mind about that news in the comment, I'm very curious about your fresh reaction on that.

Thank you everyone for your support all day!
Have a very nice day,
Cel.
