Welcome to Luna Lake! The glistening city that shines in the moonlight.

Thanks, I like his design quite a lot. :)

It was meant to be less detailed overall. I will focus on doing that. Whenever I write something that I notice is taking too much time to explain, I will create another datalog with information like this :)

Luna Lake VN @lunalakevn.bsky.social · 3d

Being sincere though, I do not think the description was bad, nor do I think it was too much. But I do know I lost a bit of time talking about the place in two days, so I trimmed it out :) The whole idea of the Datalog was to provide worldbuilding while the text

I thought it would be fun to show a bit of the route layout. The last one had around 26 dialogues, but I trimmed that down to 20. The reason? I made a whole Datalog about the apartment building with details of how it works and its layout. So I don't need to spend too much time talking about it now.

You and me both, bro.
Working on the re-structuring of some routes to remove overly excessive descriptions that are not needed. :)

Only Enlarged text should enable "Fit Content" and grow the UI, the base text should keep the UI at its original size all the time.

Luna Lake VN @lunalakevn.bsky.social · 5d

This means that, besides cutting the fat on some heavy exposition on certain locations (such as Theo's apartment building, I will add a datalog explaining how the whole building works later on so if you're interested you can read that), I'm also making sure all text fits properly.

Luna Lake VN @lunalakevn.bsky.social · 5d

The new enlarged text in the VN actually changed a few things, first I decided to tune up the base text size from 22 to 24, and the enlarged to 28. It looks like little, but 28 is insanely big if compared to 24, and 24 is big enough for text to go out of bounds.
SO I'm refactoring all available days

Just remember that Build 0.2 will be Patreon exclusive, and will only be added to the public in January. Thank you all for your time and for supporting Luna Lake!

Luna Lake VN @lunalakevn.bsky.social · 5d

The game HAS a datalog feature, and the parts where the datalog is updated, I will keep mostly the same unless they are too big for no reason. Anyway, this will take a while; there's a LOT of text in the game. But I see the point, so I'm gonna fix it. :)

Luna Lake VN @lunalakevn.bsky.social · 5d

Now, it seems some people (for now two, but I see the point) have mentioned that my text is too descriptive, so I will comb through the first three days to check what parts I spent too long describing the scene and trim that fat out.
I will maintain things that I feel are important for the plot.

Luna Lake VN @lunalakevn.bsky.social · 5d

Build 0.2.0 has some new features added to it. Here are some of them:

Faster Text Speed: Level 5 is now super fast.
Enlarge Text Feature: Enlarges the text from 22PT to 28PT.

This creates the issue of text going out of bounds, so the dialog box fits the text! :)

Now that Luna Lake is open to the public on itch, it's time to show the bio of the last character.
Joshua Hanley is an old friend of Theo whom he forgot over time. Why did Theo forget his friend, and what are the consequences for that now?

But hey, if you want to support us on Patreon, I'll be updating links here in the bio soon, and the game title screen already has links, so click away! :D

Our patreon is already live, but it's empty for now. The first update should happen between days 15-20 of this month and every month for new builds there.

The first set of expressions for Theo is now in the game, and I'm just checking for issues during all currently available days.
Once it's done, build 0.1.9 will be properly exported, added to git for versioning, and the build will be posted on itch.io

Luna Lake will soon come live on itch io for you all to test. We're planning to release two versions: One public and one private right away, so people can decide to check a bit more of the content and start supporting us on patreon.

Meet Dax Wayness.
He's one of Theo's lost childhood friends who lives in Luna Lake.
He's smart, quick to understand the mood of the room, and for some reason, he doesn't like too much when Theo gets too close, but he tries to hide it well.

A tiny bit of our new itch.io page. It's still in draft stages; we will release it once build 0.1 is ready for the public. :)

Here are some screenshots of me actually testing the game. I've found some weirdness with some animations during skip, had to change the speed of them, but overall, it's looking nice.
We do need more expressions before pushing this to the public, though.

I'm glad you liked the characters. There's still two others we haven't shown yet. So I hope you look forward to see them soon :)
