Hi everyone! Developing an RPG, especially as indie developers, is something that takes a lot of time and because we’re in the midst of a technological bottleneck, we decided to start a side-project and try ourselves in another, “simpler” direction. We’ll develop a visual novel and its story will take place within the Tribal universe. Also, this way we can make better use of our writers and illustrators. This game will slightly expand our story and also introduce you to the characters of the Tribal demo and essentially make it a prequel. The visual novel genre was invented and popularized in Japan and is mostly used for anime. But don’t worry, we’ll keep our Slavic entourage 🙂 In case you are not familiar with this genre, it is a text story with dialogs, illustrations and usually enriched with soundtracks and voice-overs to improve ambience. It has a certain degree of freedom and interactivity. We decided that this would be a great way to hone our skills in storytelling and expand the Tribal universe even further. Here’s an example of a background illustration at the concept stage and its final version:
P.S. Merry Christmas everyone and a Happy New Year! 🙂
