Hue and Me 🩶🩷🤍 by Neondust

✨Short teaser from my first visual novel game I've been working on! #vndev ✨ - Hue and Me - 🩶🩷🤍 💞Unexpected, uncertain romance 🎨Beautiful visual storytelling. 🪄A rich world with a touch of fantasy.

Suzie's and Vidar's sprites are finished! Very happy with how Vidar's expressions with his beard/stache. Not too happy with Suzie's fairy form, might revisit that. Even if they're side characters, I put as much love as I can. 🥰 #renpy #visualnovel #otome #vndev #hueandme

Feel free to check the step by step how I made this BG here! instagram.com/p/DWZolX7iCNH

I finished the first BG for #HueandMe, the office stairwell! Robyn will be spending a lot of time here to contemplate & having unexpected conversations. ^w^ The game is in black and white (mostly) so I tried to make sure they read well in monochrome. #vndev #renpy #otome

Wrote my second Devlog! Been a while, I know xD But I'm glad I have more substantial things to share art-wise! neonduststudio.itch.io/hueandme/devlo… #indiegames #renpy #vndev #hueandme #otome #visualnovel

Been a while since I updated! Here are Noah's & Robyn's sprites finished! Updated Noah's face as well to make him more handsome. I gave them so many expression layers to make sure they feel more alive in their... er, expressions. 😅 #HueandMe #vndev #renpy #visualnovel #otome

Did sketches of this boy's expressions! A side character from my visual novel game #HueandMe! a little ironic because he's a shy guy, but i loved giving him a larger range of expression options xD let's see if I can use them all! #vndev #renpy #visualnovel #otome #solodev

Cleaned up a little another side character from my visual novel game #HueandMe! He's a dwarf, seemingly new to town, that Robyn meets What role will he play in Robyn and Noah's lives? Had fun adding small details! Need to play around his values some more. #vndev #renpy #vnlink

@fictiumsound aww thank you! I'm glad you like it! yes some of the pillars of my game's art style would be keeping them clean, sharp and still striking in black and white

@neonduststudio I'm not an artist but I really liked how the greyscale style is super clean, you can read the expressions so well!

Finalized Suzie's design, a side (but veeeery important, as she would insist) character from my visual novel game #HueandMe! And here she is too in her six inches little fae form! #renpy #vndev #visualnovel #hueandme #otome

CG WIP sketch of Noah's first blush (and first ever color) that Robyn sees! Had a lot of fun writing this scene out. Can't wait to clean this up and do small variations. :D #hueandme #vndev #renpy #visualnovel #gamedev

Improved Noah's blocky hair last night, made it more organic and detailed. Looks more relaxed now, I think? I also worked on his modular expressions, mixed and match some of them here. Can't wait to clean him up 🙏🩷 #vndev #visualnovel #otome #renpy #hueandme #sketch

Cleaned up a while back some chibis of Robyn and Noah! Look at those little pointy elf ears!!😭 Did also a "black and white" version, gotta see how Robyn sees Noah in her point of view hihi. 🥰 #hueandme #vndev #visualnovel #otome #solodev #renpy

Had to redesign her 3 times! But boy do I love her so much

WIP sketch of Suzie! Side character from my Ren'py visual novel game #HueandMe! She’s six inches tall when it’s convenient & terrifyingly efficient when it’s not. Suzie Byers runs their office media branch with steel and starlight. Can't wait to show her pixie form later! :D

ah, the joys of designing your own characters TwT #vndev #renpy #hueandme #solodev #visualnovel

"what did you do today" "are you progressing on your game project" me: UmMm UHH.. y-yes?!? 😳 #hueandme #vndev #solodev #visualnovel #spriteworkisfun #godshelpme

Phone system made with Nighten's code template! So convenient <3 nighten.itch.io/yet-another-ph…

Blocked the phone messaging UI (using Nighten's template) and have the backgrounds blur out when objects/characters appear on top for my visual novel game #HueandMe! the only issue I realized is I have to redraw my own emojis to black and white to fit my game's look😅🥲

Back from vacation! Started refining Robyn's clothes & sketching in her expressions! I plan on using Renpy's LayeredImages system for the sprites to make it easier, having each part of her face separated to mix & match. SHE A CUTIE🥹 #hueandme #vndev #visualnovel #otome
