Skymoon's Mapping

I've recently commissioned work from Skymoon's Mapping in hopes of using the maps he creates for a nice base for my parallaxing edits. I must say, I'm very please with his work. While he may not have knowledge to do parallaxing just yet, he has taken my request and made a very believable household from it - it was honestly a surprise how well it had been done. I'm going to do very well using his map as a base.  ^.^

Sneak Peak

Just a real quick sneak peak at what I've been doing with parallax mapping!~


Look! It's Lillian! It's night time at the library and she's enjoying her view from inside ... I present to you, transparent windows. I don't remember a lot of games doing this, but I'm seriously toying with the idea of letting players go behind the southern walls of just about anything ... just like you'd go behind a plant, a tree, or bench.  ^.^

New Beginnings

Hello ladies and gentlemen!

Welcome to the Ruby Queen, Inc. blog where I'll be posting any and all news relating to current projects, including but not limited to: updates, progress, thoughts, and shout outs to contributors. To start this off, click here to open up a new window leading to my forum post where you can follow my progress there as well as networking with other artists and learning tools to make your own games.

The second step is to tell you a little bit about our current project in the works, called Lover's Rift.






Genre: Visual Novel / Puzzle (with combined RPG elements)

Detailed Story Description: Lillian is a librarian assistant that has her ups and downs just like anyone else. Perhaps a tad more lonely than most due to being a nerd, she still finds things to enjoy in life. Everything is going okay - it could be better, like her love life, or having more friends, but things are good. It isn't until she finds herself suddenly thrown into another world that her life seems to get worse. With no knowledge besides fictional stories to help guide her through the dangers of these new and strange worlds, she somehow manages to surrive the first encounter ... only to find herself back in her room. Now the question is, what is going on?
