Welcome/Project Announcements

I decided to fire up a blog for personal projects under my team's name, as well as updates on things I'm involved in that may or may not be directly related to LADYproject's name.

First of all, many people already know about the boy's love game, BLU: Boy's Love University, in the works. As much as I'd love to say progress on the game is coming along swimmingly, I'm afraid I can't, as we've hit a few bumps in the road and communications have been next to nil. We will do our best to remedy this, as it's only two people working on the game at this point. Expect things to take a while, but I can't personally promise BLU will come to fruition as planned - it might just not be possible for us after all.

Secondly, personal projects under the LADYproject label. These games will be otome games, and as far as it's planned, with no sexual content (slight nudity is a possibility, gore is a definite, so "Mature" is definitely the rating for them both). The below two games are heavily in-the-works and made by a single person, so take your hype with a truckload of salt.

HOOD

A game that's influenced by materials such as Rozen Maiden and common fairy tales, HOOD stars a girl named Ribbon, who happens to be a street urchin of sorts - she takes care of a group of orphaned children alongside long-time friend Tibet, steals to feed the family, and participates in high-speed flyboard races to earn cash prizes . One day, coming back from a race, Ribbon gets assaulted by a strange girl with cat ears. All at once, memories start rushing back to Ribbon, and the war of the eight Dollmasters begins. Are you strong enough to kill your seven sisters and reach Mother?

HOOD's whole atmosphere, color scheme and feeling is inspired by the sort of atmosphere in DMMD - bright, colorful, sort of futuristic. While the game has more of a light type of feel to it, with comedy and fun, there's also a lot of brutal murdering. There's only three love interests planned, and the cast is predominantly female. Possible harem end, if I can work around it. I might get this once voiced, that's just how I feel about it.

PactPrice Maiden Gray


Set in a different sort of future than HOOD, PactPrice Maiden Gray is a gritty world with magic and warfare. To gain magic and powers, people form pacts with monsters from the outerlands, for a price - usually an arm, or an eye. However, many Pact makers have gone rogue and are trying to murder people without pacts, and overthrow the government.  One in particular, a horrifying man known only as the Baron, who has left hundreds of massacres in his wake. It's said that no one survives his massacres. Unbeknownst to the public, there are only five people who have. They make up a group known as the Ghost Operatives, a group of Pact makers formed under the government, set up to kill rogue Pact makers and to ultimately end the Baron's bloody rampage. 
You play as the captain of the G.O, Mila Jonas, a woman who's Pact partner is a creature known as Johnny.  The game will be exceptionally brutal and twisted, as it's heavily inspired by the Drakengard series. I plan not to skimp on gore and body horror, as those are two of my specialties (as opposed to romantic writing, which I'm not so great at). This is the series I'm considering having partial nudity in.


I'll post concept art of both series soon. Like I said, they're pretty heavily underway, and more than just "ideas" at this point. No promises, only progress until I can't move any longer.  There are other games of mine, but they're little more than just ideas and slight paragraphs of writing right now, things that I'm not as ambitious about. Backburner projects.

With that, I christen the blog open and ready. Time to get things done.
