Overdue Updates and More

Pixæl Works Site
As you may have noticed I don’t update my Pixæl Works site often. However, I’ve decided to update the layout a bit and add new content. Come check out the site and play some of my old visual novels, listen to my musical renditions from various videogames and anime, and among other things.
Speaking of which, I’ve created renditions of music from the anime Puella Magi Madoka Magica, as well as Infinite Stratos. I created them several months back, but I figured they’re worth sharing here.
- Infinite Stratos – Opening Theme: Straight Jet
- Puella Magi Madoka Magica – Believing in Justice, aka Credens Justitiam/Mami’s Theme
Let me know if anything is broken in the site, especially regarding the layouts and such.
Pixæl Soft Gallery
Decided to create a new theme for the gallery; check it out here, and let me know if anything is broken.
Character Pages
And finally, I’ve updated the Characters page of the blog to reflect the current state of Memoria’s story. And made the layout a bit nicer, too. Again, let me know if anything is broken or messed up.
Hope you all enjoy the new stuff I posted. I need to get my sister to post new artworks, because I know you all want to see new artworks of the girls.

Huge Updates

You guys might have remembered this post, but I figured out why Coppermine gallery wouldn’t let me directly show images on this blog: apparently the server was blocking hotlinks, so I configured it to allow hotlinks for this blog. If all went well you guys should see the Memoria logo without fail; click to see full-sized image.
Also, I created a twitter account for Memoria. I might make changes to this blog later so it integrates with twitter. Follow me and my sis on memoriavn!
One more thing, I spent all day upgrading the gallery to the latest version. It was a huge pain to upgrade as I had some setbacks but it’s working now. I encourage you guys to visit it and let me know if anythings broken.
Gonna update my sister on how to use the twitter and hotlinking images.

Memoria’s logo, version 1.
September 14, 2010 at 12:35 pm | Posted in Artwork, Other | 1 CommentTags: art
I know, I CAN show you guys the logo without clicking the link, but for some strange reason Coppermine Gallery won’t let me directly show you the image.
Opted for an ethereal-ish design, and the subtitle: “The Future is Near.” No, I did not borrow my sister’s tablet; created it just using a mouse and photoshop. I’ll let you guys think about the process behind the logo.
Of course, this is not final. Let me know what you guys think.

Refining characters

Okay, I might’ve said that I was going to start route writing by the beginning of this month (see last part of entry Poll #3).
However, I found myself still refining Tristina’s parts of the story. The other girls seem pretty much solid, it’s just that Tristina is a bit hard to work on. I’m going to start route writing when I feel her stuff is solid like the other girls, don’t want to make things complicated later on.
On a somewhat unrelated note: Any of you guys watch the anime “Working!!”? I find that in some way, most of Memoria’s heroines can relate to a role in that anime. Like Anna / Poplar XD

Anna has pretty blue eyes

I think from now on at random times my post titles will have a random fact of a Memoria girl. XD
But anyway, as I was revising the story I’ve been thinking about a subtitle for Memoria. I’ve looked at some of my favorite Japanese VN examples:
- * Petapeta ~linking little fingers to confirm a promise~
- * Floating Material -The Hill Where the Star Born- (I think they mean: Where the Stars Were Born?)
So, somewhat along those lines, I’m thinking for this project’s title/subtitle: Memoria ~where hopes, dreams, and desires become reality~
I’ll leave it up to you guys to figure out why I chose that subtitle as the project progresses. The title is a little more obvious if you read the “Story” section, though I promise you it’s more than just Ryne having bad/pleasant memories of a girl. ^_^
Sister’s got some colored artwork done. Once I get a hold of her I’ll have her post some – they’re looking excellent.

On Working as a Group
February 22, 2010 at 7:32 pm | Posted in Other | Leave a commentTags: Other
Compiling a visual novel as a group is hard work, I know.
As a manager of two VN projects (Memoria and the Final Week remake), I have to keep tabs on my artists to make sure they’re doing their job. Of course, I need to keep tabs on myself, as well. I’m giving myself and my artists every other week to get at least something done. I understand they have school/college and work and such, and I respect that – it’s called time management.
If you’ve guys read the “what is project Memoria” section, you’ll see that the characters were recycled from a scrapped project. That’s what I really want to avoid, scrapping the two VN projects.
For all those VN enthusiasts creating their own VNs – don’t give up. You might have some setbacks among your team members, but as long as you negotiate with them then problems will be minimized, making things go more smoothly.
Expect something new at least once here every two weeks from this post on (story and art-wise). Especially since my sister bought a shiny new Wacom tablet.

Final Week – enhanced remake
November 14, 2009 at 9:47 pm | Posted in Other | Leave a commentTags: Other
I know that the Project Memoria blog is primarily for my current VN, Memoria. But I might as well announce it here!
Along with a friend of mine (he’s an excellent anime artist), I’m also working on an enhanced remake of Final Week, a VN originally created as a big art project in my final semester of college. The upgrades include:
* Major graphics overhaul: character graphics will be redone, plus the inclusion of event CGs (I didn’t have the time to include them when I first created it)
* Some bug fixes and minor script modifications, possibly getting better voice actors/actresses
I might make two versions of the game: a non-H version, and an H-version (18+, for you hentai fans out there). No art samples as of yet; this project just started yesterday.
If you guys haven’t already, download the original game here: http://pixaelworks.pixaelsoft.com/final_week.php
Comment on the game in this post, or here: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=6098
