Almost there, ALMOST THERE!

Hey everyone! Life's gotten in the way an awful lot this month, but we're already recording Ader's new voice acting courtesy of Stanpai aka @TheManlyStanley and I'm editing the audio for the first chapter as we speak! Recording today chapter 2's, and then everything will be ready for release!The translations will probably have to wait a little bit more :,>

v4 delayed until November (and other news)

Hey everyone! All the new and old remade art has been ready for a couple of weeks now, but v4 is getting delayed until the first week of November because:1) I've been messing with some New Dialogue Improvements™ to make Ader feel like... you know. A hick. What he was supposed to be? Yeah. Basically making him sound the way he sounds in Spanish, as I never intended to make him come off dumb as a rock in English. I just... didn't know how to write him better back then :,> 2) Ader's n...

Almost done remaking the art!

I'm almost done, y'all! Just one more CG to go and the new voice acting for Ader (if you didn't recall, his VA got recast all the way back in March and I was waiting to finish all the new art to add it!)In the meantime, here's a couple of finished CGs. I'm more active on twitter! https://twitter.com/SandraMJdev

V4 sprite examples

Here are a few examples of the new sprites that will appear in the next version of The Hayseed Knight, to be released this upcoming week!It'll be just an aesthetic update for now to prepare the ground for a bigger update to gameplay and choices. Stay tuned!

New cover for The Hayseed Knight

Hey everyone! Still working on updating all that art! I'm currently updating CGs and I should have at least a small aesthetic update soon <3In the meantime, here's the finished cover for THKv4, with the new logo as well as you can see! I feel both capture a lot better what the story is about, haha.Thanks a lot for your support, everyone!

Eina v4 update

Eina v4 (left) vs Eina v3 (right). Eina was the most recent sprite I updated all the way back in January, so hers needed the least redesigning and stuff!Her arms are kind of meh but she's fairly short and you can't see them here so EH.

Chapter 3 announcement + redesigns

Hi sorry for always being so quiet here, I find Patreon and devlogs in general really imposing AND would much rather ramble endlessly on twitter.SO ABOUT THAT CHAPTER 3If everything goes according to plan, chapter 3 should be ready somewhere late November-ish! Things hardly ever go according to plan but one can dream!SO SO SO! REDESIGNS AND STUFF.I'll make a separate post detailing and compiling in a single place everything that lead to Ader's design evolution and how we came to the v4 r...

Jasif introduction WIPs

As the narrative for the game is getting a rework to better fit the concept of learning the truth of a story with multiple versions, I thought that we could use some character introductions 8DI'll upload another post exclusively for patrons with the full size images for wallpapers!

Ader redesign sketches + Rewards Reminder

This boy definitely needs to be taller. But yeah! Ader has changed quite a lot! I figured that his previous design wasn't very good for the story progression (and... certainly not precisely appealing towards people outside a vvvveeerrrry specific demographic) so... welcome noodle boy! About Sep, I've been taking belly dancing lessons, and I feel they've really helped nail her body language down! LOOK AT THAT RAW SASS!What do you think about them?Also, don't forget to ask for your...

New $100 Reward Tier!

Hey everyone!I'm still working on that comic compilation, fighting against Scribus's lack of Win10 support! In the meantime, I created a new reward tier!Patrons that pledge $100 a month will get a special commission unavailable anywhere else *drumroll*: get your own The Hayseed Knight OC, designed by me!Let me know what you think! <3

Sep v4 expressions

Just a little preview of the expressions that Sep's new redesign will have!(There are actually a few more, but these are the most finished ones shhh)

A new reward for Patrons!

I'm working on the comic compilation 2017-April 2018 for Patrons that donate 5+! You'll get to see the comics, the approximate date, and a comment explaining the purpose/mild spoilers for the comic. They'll also be classified per ship for your convenience :>

Bartering Minigame Concept

Work on the minigames has finally begun! Today I've brought this Super Detailed Sketch™ to introduce you to one of the first challenges you'll face as Ader— actually selling stuff! Or doing your best at it at the very least! No more "d'oh no one comes near us :(" without even trying!Sell at a high price! Lose customers! Sell at a discount! No one wants your item anyway! But that's okay, because you'll have a vast list of interactions ready to woo— err, captivate...

Chapter 2 Announcement

Hey everyone! Just dropping by to say that Chapter 2 is nearing its completion! I'm aiming to have it released on March 10th 2018! I'll try my best to release it on time!On other news, all the patrons who've contributed more 5 or more dollars have been added to the credits as promised! Thank you so much for all you've done <3

Patreon Rewards for November!

Hey everyone! If you haven't asked for your rewards this November, don't forget to do so!This is the last month that I'm going to be offering artistic rewards, I think. I'm always super busy with the VN, and with my wrist as it is I don't believe I'll be able to offer more than what is already available in twitter or in the game itself.In December I'll rework the reward system, so I'll reboot everyone's contribution then so you guys don't pay for something...

Don't forget your rewards!

For all the patreons pledging to a sketch tier, don't forget to DM what you want me to draw!

July Rewards

Don't forget to PM here or on twitter asking for your custom rewards!

Scene test

Here's a short recording of one of the first scenes! No voice acting or anything yet, just messing with Renpy's ATL and choices :D Hope you like it!

Bazaar bg art (kind of a WIP?)

Still far from being finished, but welp! It'll do for now :3

Trying out im.Composite

Eina all made up of sprites vs single png Ader, fight!...Now for real, I do wonder how I should do it. Maybe I should just focus on translating the writing to charge ahead, haha

Eina expressions WIP

Playing around with Eina's design! She's so mad ;w;

Ader expressions (WIP 2)

I added a blush and suddenly he's moe, oops :>

Ader and Sep tests

I was just making sure that they both fit in the same style, and accidentally made it look like something shady's going on ;w;

Ader's expressions (WIP)

Now working on the expressions of everyone's favorite deer husbando! He'll actually wear his vest on top, but I generally prefer starting my sketches clotheless. It's good anatomy practice!

Voice acting, go!
