Development update #181 | Chapter 7 | New logo, trailers and promo art previews
Hello everyone! This update may be a bit longer than usual. I'll talk about steam, promo materials and other stuff. So just skip it if you are not interested.
It’s been a great week! I’ve finally wrapped up all the work on the Steam page and submitted it for moderation. Fingers crossed it gets approved quickly, and I can launch it next week. I think it’s only fair to share with you, my most loyal and generous supporters, what I’ve been working on all this time.
Let's start with logo.
It took me a while to finalize this. But I'm glad to finally have a final logo for my game. 4 years after the launch, lol. Just a quick throwback to how the previous logos looked:
My very first logo, I made it in 2021 for my initial launch:
Then after few years I decided to update my main banner, and I realized it needed new font and a new logo. So I decided to go with a new temporary logo as simple white text:
And of course, for Steam release I needed to finalize this and make a professional final version of my logo. So here is the final result:
I hope you all like it. Coz I'm happy as a child :)
Then the trailers.
I actually made two trailers. You can watch one at the very top if you haven’t already. I’m not a pro at video editing, and they took a while to put together, but I’m happy with how they turned out. The first is a short, NSFW trailer designed to grab attention with hot and spicy content. You can check it out here. The second is a longer, SFW trailer for everyone, uploaded on YouTube. It’s a bit lengthy but tells a story and gives a solid sense of what the game’s about for those who are curious.
Steam promo capsules:
For the Steam capsule art, I tried tons of options but settled on one of the very first renders I created for this game. It’s probably one of the most recognizable and, probably, one of the most stunning renders. It's been featured in various places during those years, including an article on Polygon. It’s the render of Chloe playing on her computer in her room. I won’t show all the materials I’ve prepared for Steam, just these two images. This should give you the picture. The rest are essentially variations of this one, slightly reworked.
I decided to add Daisy for the vertical version, simply because she is the most popular character. I guess her face catch attention pretty well.
Tell me what you think about everything I just showed you. Do you like it? Please be honest.
I also worked on the website for my game. But there is no reason for you to see it as it's a basic landing page to direct those from Steam to my other pages. However I'll use it for wishlisting promo when I launch my Steam page. I'm preparing 7 exclusive renders with each main girl for those, who will wishlist my game on Steam.
Also, I just recently finished and posted new wallpapers and special renders. I decided to go with a Jill Valentine cosplay for Cathy's wallpapers this time. It's Halloween after all and I just don't have time to work on something special this year. So I hope you don't mind and like it. Daisy's Oktoberfest specials also turned out pretty good.
As for the development itself, now when all this work is settled, I'll completely focus on posing and rendering starting from tomorrow. I still managed to work on art this week tho. Just not as much as I'd liked to.
Have a great week, and take care!
