Amy and Frankie v0.3.0 CONCEPTS (IV)

Hey, hey, people,

How's it going? How's the spooky season treating you? Have you already picked out your Halloween costume? We haven't decided yet... and honestly, we might not even celebrate the holiday.

What we will be doing around that time is, of course, working on the seventh version of Final Orginity. We plan to release it not long after Halloween. While we're still fine-tuning the version, today, I'm taking a moment to finish talking to you about the art in general (and the concepts in particular) for Final Orginity v0.3.0.

Amy & Frank

Amy and Frank seem to be connected by fate. Certainly, neither of them would have imagined ending up as the only survivors of an entire village. Poor Amy, who always dreamed of living in the big city with her sister, ends up in St. Polla, living with the only boy her age she's ever really known.

If Amy follows Rokas' path, which opens up after spending the night at the hotel with Strom, she ends up as a sex slave with Frank as her first client. Of all the scenes in this sixth version, this is one we thought had to happen, no matter what. Life can take some unexpected turns, can't it, Amy?

Once again, Atom handled the concepts, sketching them by hand to prepare a scene with two phases. Here's the concept for the first phase:

For this first phase, we've chosen a layered animation, meaning it's made up of different animated PNGs with motion interpolation. For the digitalization of this part, here's something many of you may not know: Amy's reactions can vary depending on the decisions/actions that have been taken beforehand!

For example, when Amy undresses and approaches Frank, there are two possible reactions. The first one (on the left) is a neutral reaction... She's clearly uncomfortable with life's ironies. The second reaction (on the right) occurs with the "Violent Amy" subroute (for example, when Amy enters the city following the mercenary route). In this second action, we see a more irritated or angry Amy than an uncomfortable one.

For the second part of this first phase, Amy takes notice of Frank's member. Here we have two possible reactions again. In the first image (on the left), we have a standard reaction from Amy, surprised to see Frank's member. In the second image (on the right), we have the corruption variant, activated by changing in public or accepting indecent favors.

For the second phase of the scene, we opted for frame-by-frame animation. With this in mind, Atom created the following concept, adding some lines to guide the pelvic movement.

Animating frame by frame generally takes a lot of work compared to layered animation or motion interpolation. You have to draw something multiple times and keep trying until you achieve the desired animation. As a detail, you'll notice that Frankie's face shows a slight 'tremble,' which adds a lot of expressiveness (The guy is freaking out!). If it looks good, then give credit to Space because this is a lot of work.

This has been Amy and Frank's first scene outside the village, but it probably won't be the last. Frankie is, in fact, one of the characters for whom we have big plans in the game. Undoubtedly, over time, there will be much more content between those two...

Hold on Frankie, you better watch out where you've got your hands...

And with this post, we conclude the series of concept art posts related to Final Orginity 0.3.0, the sixth version. In the upcoming posts, we'll continue getting to know the Ropoductions team and gradually reveal more information about the seventh version.

So, that's all for today, dear patrons. And to wrap it up, the same as every day: Take care, be very happy, and we'll see you in the next post,
