Nadine and Amia discuss Xavier.
#screenshotsaturday #magicalgirlshadowangel #visualnovel #gamedev

Amia, a Black woman, blushes and asks, "He's a total hunk, right?"

Screenshot of a menu showing the player's possible answers, "For sure!" and "Not really."

The "For sure!" option in the previous image leads to Nadine blushing and answering "I guess so..."

The "Not really." option leads to Nadine looking up and saying "Not really."

The first concept for one of the playable characters in my game! I’ve planned several paths you can take following one of the main characters. This one is the scholar, modelled on my grandfather.
