Multiplayer Visual Novel Art Update
- 1 minWIP Art
Have accumulated a bunch of half-finished PC98-style art backgrounds for use in my multiplayer adventure/visual novel game.
I haven’t yet nailed down the resolution I want to use as well as overall design which has kept me from grinding through and finishing these pieces. I’m still considering gameplay elements and I probably don’t want to do too much art until I have more of the plot storyboarded out.
Nevertheless I’ve still needed to keep working and grow as an artist. You can see a bit of how my process works in these work-in-progress pieces.
These are still definitely learning pieces. For purposes of comparison here is some art from actual PC98 games:
It’s doubtful I could get all the graphics in the game to this level of quality just by myself, but the goal will get to produce at least a few pieces for the demo. Of course, not all PC98 games looked this good, the ones with the best graphics came along in the mid 1990s as opposed to earlier. Honestly it is insane how much effort it takes to get the cluttered machinery cyberpunk look that you can see in quite a few of the PC98 games.
Going beyond the demo I will definitely need some extra help for art production.
