...Not everyone's been happy with the way ARS.TEC manages the company though, and over the years a coordinated resistance movement has been forming under the name ROS:KAI. Very little is known about the organisation and it's members, as they always wear black space suits to conceal their identities.
A logo for the organisation ROS:KAI from my visual novel. Their logo has the acronym ROS:KAI in front of a black space suit helmet with a skull where the face would be visible, and overall has grungy texture. Beneath that are ROS:KAI's full title, Renegade Organised Society, Kill ARS.TEC Initiative.

Now I've got some info on the setting! The game takes place on a Mars colony funded by the mega-corporation ARS.TEC and is broken up into three orbital sectors. Each one manages different industries, from business/tech, to media/art, to labour/services

| #vndev #visualnovel #os:tri #worldbuilding |
A logo for the megacorp ARS.TEC from my visual novel OS:TRI. The logo shows the company name in a cyan, magenta, yellow gradient in front of a gem shape with two arrows pointing upwards. This and the following images are info graphics on the different sectors from my game. This is for OS:LOG, or the Orbital Sector for Logistical Operations and Governance. The logo for it is a cyan brain. Text reads: OS:LOG was developed as the hub for the majority of the business, planning and technological innovation industry on Mars, and has over time become the de facto government due to their influence over the development of the Colony. Much of this development is spearheaded by ARS.Tec, the largest megacorporation on Mars and the source of much of the initial financial backing of the colony, who has based most of their infrastructure in OS:LOG. The next sector is OS:PATH, the orbital sector for the preservation of arts and terrestrial history. Their logo is a stylised graphic of a magenta book with pages unfurling. Text reads: The sector designed around the preservation of Earth culture and the arts in general for Mars citizens. It has since become the main centre for most of the entertainment media produced on Mars. It's citizens are often known for their rather extravagant presentation, especially since the advent of new holographic body augmentation technology that allows its users to make large changes to their appearance with minimal effort. The last sector is OS:ETH, the orbital sector for Emergency Technology and Healthcare. Their logo is a yellow cog. Tect reads: The sector developed around mechanical engineering and the practical labour force in general, though much of it has become automated with recent developments in technology. This sector also governs most of the emergency services, such as healthcare and distaster relief forces, though each sector does have smaller local facilities for minor incidents.

Naomi was Supposed to be a minor side character who would just be a way for Skyler to get dirt on the New Secret Project, but then I realised what her being on The New Secret Project meant for the story and she became Way more important

aka she is definitely going to have a good and normal time :)
A cropped screenshot of some of Naomi's character sprites, both of her looking extremely anxious.

More characters, this time ft. the staff at ARS.TEC, the mega-corporation running the Mars colony they live on. There's Marcus, the young CEO of ARS.TEC, his secretary Monique, and Petra, the head of security. Plus a brand new character, Naomi!

| #ocsky #cyberpunk #vndev #visualnovel #os:tri |
Character bio of my OC Marcus Ayers. He is a pale man with white hair and a black and white suit with cyan, magenta and yellow light up accents. His text reads: ARS.TEC CEO, Age, 35+, OS: LOG, Pronouns: He/Him. Marcus is the current CEO of ARS.TEC, the mega-corporation funding the Mars Colony project, having inherited it from his father after his unexpected retirememn several years ago. Despite having been essentially raised for the role his whole life, he was clearly unprepared to take on the company at such a young age, and has been having trouble living up to expectations, especially given the incredible innovations his father had made. Character bio for Marcus' Secretary, Monique Antonova. She is a woman with short white hair and glasses and a black and white suit with white light up accents, and is carrying a briefcase. Her text reads: Monique has been the secretary for ARS.TEC's CEO Marcus Ayers for almost as long as he's been in the role. She rarely makes public appearances and most of her work is done behind the scenes, so it's not uncommon for even members of ARS.TEC's staff to have never met her. As a result very little is known about her or the work he has her doing. Character bio for Petra Waltz. She is a stern looking older woman with straight grey hair, wearing a red and black security guard uniform with a large coat over her shoulders. Her text reads: Security Chief, age: 60+, OS: LOG, pronouns: she/her. Petra is the chief of security at ARS.TEC, and is thus also Ethan's supervisor. He is easily one of her best students, so she does her best to keep an eye out for him, but the current situation doesn't exactly make that easy... She takes care to look after her subordinates and is well respected for her commitment to her work, however that commitment can often lead her to crossing serious boundaries in pursuit of her goals. Character bio for Naomi Labelle. She is a kind looking young woman with darker mauve toned hair, wearing a teal uniform with light up cyan accents. Her text reads: Research scientist, Age: 18, OS: LOG, pronouns: she/her. As the head student and top of her year at the training academy for Logistical Operations and Governance, Naomi was clearly ARS.TEC's top pick for their new top secret, restricted development program. She's always admired Marcus and his work at ARS.TEC, so getting to work under him is a dream come true for her! After a chance enouncter at work, Skyler ends up taking an interest in her, which she insists is for reasons totally unrelated to her work on the new top secret project.

And here's some actual gameplay, cause I finally have One scene where I have finished assets AND a good enough draft of the writing. You can see the stats and wiki screens too, plus the chat interface (which is just renpy's NVL mode in a hat)

And for posterity here's what it used to look like:
A screenshot of the previous main menu screen. It is very similar, but doesn't have the character art.

Sharing some clips from OS:TRi since I just updated the main menu layout a bit, ft. placeholder key art for the game! I kept it simple for now cause I think it'd be cool to expand the art with new characters with each story arc

Oh yes this meme is perfect for my weird lil guys...

Love the coughing baby to hydrogen bomb scale, Trinity is absolutely a hydrogen bomb who thinks he's just a coughing baby

| #os:tri #ocmeme #ocsky |
"Weirdo Alert" OC meme of my OC Skyler. For the how they look when they smile at the camera profile image she is smiling menacingly at the camera. For the "what's their deal section" it just says "a nosy bitch who wants to find out." For the current goal section hers is listed as "Find out what cool secret projects the evil megacorp has" which is marked on a scale as a bad idea but somewhat easy. The same meme with my OC Ethan. For his profile image he has a completely deadpan expression with no smile. His "deal" is "security guard just trying to do his job." His goal is "not get fired" and marked as a good idea but close to impossible. The same meme with my oc Trinity. His profile shows him smiling politely. His "deal" is "sentient computer program who probably isn't supposed to exist." His goal is "not get erased from existance" which is a good idea but nearly impossible.

Also don't worry Trinity does not spend the entire story as a disembodied computer program, he does get a cool robot body eventually

| #ocsky #oc #cyberpunk #os:tri |
A digital illustration of my OC Trinity, he is a humanoid robot with messy black hair and is wearing a green and grey hoodie. His face is mostly human, with the except of his eyes which have a bright green aperture pattern. His arms peaking out of the hoodie are fully cybernetic.

And barbie meme of my OCs Skyler and Ethan from back when this meme was going around the Former Bird Site cause it is basically canon

| #ocsky #cyberpunk #os:tri |
Image of my OC Ethan in the Barbie movie promo image meme from twitter. It is a mug shot of him looking anxious while holding a plaque with his name on it. The second part of the barbie meme. It is of my OC Skyler in a similar mug shot style image, smiling at the camera with a devious expression.

Some character bios for the main characters of my cyberpunk VN OS:TRi!

(And Skyler's robot cat cause I needed a fourth one for the image ratios to work lmao)

Character bio of my OC Skyler O'Gormon. She is a smug looking white blonde woman in a blue formal uniform. Her text reads: "Aspiring" Engineer. Age: 18, OS: LOG, Pronouns: She/Her. Skyler came to Mars on a scholarship to a prestigious tech school, only to flunk most of her final exams and get stuck with a job fixing vacuum cleaners for the definitely not evil mega-corporation ARS.Tec. She is definitely not bitter about this at all in any way, and definitely did not sneak into their restricted area and steal their new top secret sentient computer program... She is a good employee who totally respects authority! Bio of my OC Ethan Rojas-Valerio. He is a brown skinned man with darker ginger hair who wears a red security guard uniform with his arms crossed. His text reads: Security Guard. Age 19, OS: ETH, pronouns: He/Him. Ethan's a rookie security guard working for ARS.Tec, and only got involved in this whole mess after he prevented them from trying to murder Skyler for stealing their top secret sentient computer program. He's technically the group's bodyguard, but spends most of his time stopping the others from doing anything stupid. Ethan's not exactly been forthcoming to Skyler about his background or why he's even working for ARS.Tec in the first place, but its hard to tell if he's being secretive or if he just doesn't like Skyler that much. Bio of my OC Vapurrwave, Skyler's robot cat. They are a grey cat with a modern furby style faceplate for eyes. Text reads: FURR-E 2000. FURR-Es are robot pets that were developed as a way to make up for the logistical difficulties of bringing pets to Mars. The latest 3000 model pets have incredibly advanced programming and a life-like design that is almost identical to the real thing! Vapurrwave is not that. They're one of the older 2000 models, which are known for their very buggy programming and... interesting design. They've got spirit though! Bio of my OC Trinity. They are portrayed as floating speech bubble with a green interconnected circles symbol. Text reads: Sentient Computer. OS: TRI Unit-E "Trinity". Age: Like 3 days, OS: N/A, pronouns: "probably he/him?" he says. 'Trinity' is a sentient computer program who was supposedly created by ARS.Tec, but has been kept suspiciously under wraps until now. He's surprisingly 'normal' for a machine, but has developed an uncanny ability to hijack other ARS.Tec robots. Trinity knows next to nothing about his origins or purpose, but the one thing he is absolutely certain of is that he should not be returned to ARS.Tec, as they fully intend to destroy him.

More info on Solunar:
#Solunar is my fantasy universe where magic caused ppl to develop animal features, and I'd like to make multiple stories about different regions of it. The first one is about the bastard son of the Deer King running away from home with a werewolf lumberjack as his bodyguard.
Full body art of my OCs Raleigh and Valko. Raleigh is a man with brown skin and deer features, including antlers and white freckles. He wears a red cloak and is casting magic to grow a small plant. Valko is a taller pale skinned wolf man wearing a sheepskin coat with the sleeves torn off. He is carrying an axe. Art of my OC Eustace. He is a tall man with unicorn features. He has brown skin and white hair, with a curved white horn on his forehead. He wears the same read cloak as Raleigh on top of ornate white and gold clothes. He has a carved wooden crown, belt and sword sheath. Text reads: Heir to the Cervine Kingdom. Prince Eustace.

More info on OS:TRi:
#OS:TRi is a sci fi visual novel I am currently (very slowly) developing about teens on a dystopian Mars colony "accidentally" stealing a sentient computer program from a Definitely-Not-Evil mega corporation.

I have a carrd here with more info: ostrigame.carrd.co
A screenshot of the main menu my in-progress visual novel OS:TRi. The menu is of the logo (OS:TRi in a sci fi looking font with an interconnected circle symbol forming the O) against a glitch pattern background. Another screenshot of the game, this time of the main character Skyler sitting in her room in front of a holographic computer screen. Her dialogue reads: I should see if Dalia's online. I need someone to gossip with. A screenshot of a chat screen from the game, showing Skyler talking to her friend Dalia. Skyler is curious about something and wonders if there's a way for her to find out more about it, and Dalia tells her off, because she knows her well enough to know she'll get into trouble. Another screenshot of another character, Ethan, standing in his room. His room is much emptier than Skyler's.

Art of my OC Raleigh, who is a human man with deer features, and is holding dark coloured berries in he hand. He has brown skin with white freckles, and small antlers that peak out of the red hood he is wearing. Around the illustration is a wooden style border covered in vines, with a symbol for the sun at the top. At the bottom text reads 'Little Red Deer'. The second part of the barbie meme. It is of my OC Ethan in a similar mug shot style image, looking very anxious. Art of my OC Valko, who is a human man with wolf features, and is holding an axe in his hand. He has fair skin, grey hair and wolf ears. His right eye is glowing white like the moon in the background, and the shape of a larger wolf is visible behind him. Around the illustration is a wooden style border covered in ice, with a symbol for the moon at the top. At the bottom text reads 'The Big Bad Wolf'.
