Pirate Mermaid Preview Video

Hey, everybody! Check out this preview video from my and Nellie's upcoming otome game, "The Pirate Mermaid"!

The pirate girl protagonist gets stranded on a deserted island, only to find out it is not so "deserted" after all. Introduces one of the game's two love main interests - a snarky, monocle-wearing sorceror - and features lots of cute chibi animations. ^_^



Is the moving compass on the namebox too distracting for anyone, by the way? (It's only supposed to change when the speaker changes, but maybe even that's a bit excessive)  I think I need to restrain myself from spamming any more animations. -_-

Next video: AXIOM.01 gameplay preview? xD (I've finished the hint/fading clues system for one room; two more to go!)

  1. It's nice but the excess animations make it distracting. By itself they're nice, though I'm used to images not moving all the time if you get what I mean.

    1. Hi, Judy! Thanks for the feedback! :) Yeah, I'm also worried that I put in too many moving parts, haha. Hopefully it will be easier for people to read when clicking through at their own pace? I'm thinking that I could remove the rotating compass, though, since that's an extra bit of movement that doesn't have much meaning.

  2. I like the rotating, it's the dialogue lines in front of the characters' mouths that get a bit distracting. Looks great so far, though. I love the MC's attitude.

    1. Yeah, I think I unnecessarily vilified the rotating compass. It sounds like it’s not actually that bad (plus I think it looks cool at other parts of the game). Others have also commented on the red talking lines, so I’ll talk to my partner about them. Thanks, and yay for the strong MC love! :D

  4. EDIT: I just played the demo version, OMG I love the animation! I love the art. Moving characters/body parts are not new to me so it was still great that yours was incorporated with one. By the way, is the full version already out? Can you please reply to me the link? Thank you! :D More power to you and your team!
