Pikmin 4 Dating Sim - May 4th Development Blog

Welcome to the first installment of the Pikmin 4 Dating Sim development blog! A weekly "news letter" where I will discuss my progress on the dating simulator. I thought instead of doing a discord server, this would probably be the best course of action. If we get more buzz around the project, perhaps a discord server still can be made.

--------------

What is the Pikmin 4 dating simulator? The Pikmin 4 dating simulator (working title) is a dating simulator where you create a character and go on a little narrative story path with members of the Rescue Corps!

It takes place late into your mission on PNF-404, a multiple day storm forces the Rescue Corps to halt rescue efforts and take shelter in the S.S. Shepherd.

During this time, you decide to get to know your crew members, each having their own arch and story!

Planned routes:

Captain Erma Shepherd

Collin

Russ

Dingo

Yonny

Bernard

All around, it will be a light-hearted playable dating sim made in Ren'Py!

--------------

What has been done this week? (Well, a bit over a week)

Shepherd's rough draft

Russ' rough draft

2 backgrounds

Most of Russ' sprites

Started Shepherd's Sprites

Started writing Introduction

UI text box shift when custom character is on screen

-------------- Please keep in mind, I am one person <3 I'm working as fast as I can while also working a job! Feel free to DM me anything <3 either on here or @andrabeets on discord --------------

So, obviously, the official name won't be "Pikmin 4 dating sim" or "Rescue Corps dating sim" I have a few ideas for a name but I thought I'd let you guys vote!

The winner doesn't guarantee the name of the project. I just know I'd like it to be something to do with dandori.

-------------- Thank you for reading! Hope to have more updates for you next week! Stay curious~

Hi!! I just wanted to say thank you for your nice tags on your reblog 🥹

Oh and tell me a fun fact about Io!

Hello!!! And GAHH absolutely!!! Your art just blows me away, it's simply wonderful! I love your anatomy!

I... was a little hype,... to find someone who loves Captain Shepherd, she's such a silly girl, so seeing yume art for her sent me to the MOOON! AND WELL...

(this loop tickled me bc it just looks like shes fully aware of io??? but keeps on goin to kiss cherie anyway!)

As for a fun fact about Io!!! Oh GOSHH, well, I think onnne would be... well, Io adores rock Pikmin! She also loves rocks, in general, as WELL as rock ( and its subgenres) music! Often, she'll be listening to the screamiest of screamos on duty and can hardly hear Collin speaking to her!

I don't like your dog...

The Only Important Rule To Remember:

When there are only two characters remaining, they will face off against one another in a week-long poll to determine the victor.

YOU BASTARDS! THRAWN IS MY BLUE BABY! HOW DARE Y-

I mean... good show. Good show. Congratulations to all the Thrawn fans for getting him to the semi-finals.

...anyway.

This is it!

Two enter, and only one may leave... who will be crowned the Hottest Star Wars Alien of all time?

Will it be Ahsoka Tano the correct choice?

Or will it be Darth Maul the incorrect choice?

Cast your votes wisely and vote for Ahsoka!

...and remember, this is all just for fun. Except it isn't, and Ahsoka better fucking win.

AHEM!

I mean, happy voting for Ahsoka!

-Jesse xx

P.S: Vote for Ahsoka.

Yes girl

I'm drawing Russ' talk sprites right now and omg why do we all sleep on him?? He's hot as fuck

I've been a bit busy so just a little transparent maul judging your blog.
