RPGM Completed Agony of the Healthy Sleep [Final Day] [DushniyGames]

[Dushniy]

New version is out! This one features a remake of day 1.
Mostly changed the dialogue (way less cringe now, hopefully more people will try it past day 1, lol) and new drawings by an artist who helps me now.

We really hope for your feedback on the new art, it's kind of important to us. Hope you enjoy the new art direction.
Personally, I think he draws way better than me and it does save me a lot of time.

Just beat day 1.
Old dialogues was not caused cringe on my side, but whatever. New ones....ehh, okay.

And new art direction is...well, not suit to the game story? There are some interesting things on new arts, but its just too...smooth and colorfull? for a story of this kind. It looks now a bit cartoonish. Yes, old style was off here and there. But overall it suited for the story.
I mean, guy on the left suits more to the story "guy have 'nightmares' for the last three years and slowly starts to lose grip on reality" than on the right.

Agree! Remake Harold look weird compare to the old version, on the left he's the handsome boy I like while on the right....just feel wrong...

 

[Dushniy]

Holy molly what a gem of a game. I was skipping in due to a strange art style but holly shit its awesome. Nice story and some nice 4th wall breaking here and there (like trying to load and ask a different question - thats gold) Really looking forward to more. (Dolo one love)
And deffinetly subscribing to a Patreon (OnceI have some money on me lol (help I have porn addiction))

Thank you! But lately with what's going on, I am not even sure I'll be able to receive them. Feels Sadge Man.

What about the girls?

 

[thevoid089]

What about the girls?

The girls redesign gave me a mixed feeling: On one hand Miu and the maid redesign really look great compare to her old version but on the other hand I like the old art style for Liz, of course she's still look very good in new style but the old style fit her more in my opinion. But new Steph is just....odd, I'm okay with Miu and Liz but Steph I must say I prefer her with your style. She's too iconic with the thin figure, pale skin, crazy eyes, pink dress,.... than the new one just like how I prefer original Harold
Dolo is the only one that at least look great in both style, love it

 

[Quintilus]

What about the girls?

They all too colorful and cheerful, as for a game that have SH2 vibes...
Whoever helping you is missed the part that this is kinda a psychological horror porn game.

Dolo is good. Her face could have look a bit more like an abstract painting, but it still good.
Miu...bland/okay, but as for character that could be seen only once...ehh...pass.
Liz is...mixed feelings. Drinking tentacle is nice touch. Stalking "effect" as a purple eyes too. But she dosent look sinister enough on a plane. Or at least that how I remember her. Also, Harold dick size in her scenes is...disappointing comparing to previous version.
Steph is...okay, but I prefer previous version, just because current one is, again, too life-affirming.

 

[SirSchlongSlinger]

Game was always about the story imo, I think everyone's already made all the good points but the art has a different feeling than the story now. Idk if this is bias but the nose and sellion design makes them look friendly which someone above me said works for some characters, but not others.

To clarify I'm not saying that art style is bad, It just feels friendly like the golden/ wartime age of Disney movies.

Alright. I hear you guys.
I'll think about what to do. We were both nervous about how you guys gonna receive it.
It's just really was a big help for me to have someone draw for the game.
Maybe I'll ask for some additional scenes while drawing the main characters myself still? This could probably work. I'll change some pictures back ones day 8 comes out.

Anyway, I have started working on day 8 last week, but have hit a few creative stumbling blocks. Sometimes it happens and just nothing comes to mind. Also can't post on twitter much with updates. Also sucks
I'll keep you up to date on the process.

Thanks for the feedback and your interest as always

 

[ThisIsJustForOneThing]

The horror aspects in the redesign fit a lot better I.E Tentacle/Globs of Sludge and Dolo looks fantastic. I also agree that the characters are a bit bright for the plane parts (Perhaps use brighter colors in the normal world and darker colors in the plane to play off the contradiction? Although the world Harrold lives in is not exactly the bright type. I dunno not exactly a character designer just showcasing my feelings)

I prefer the old style for the non-plane aspects granted the only characters that have been redesigned are characters I feel iffy about. Steph design is probably the one that deviates the most her old design really showcased her empty zombie-like quality in the normal world her new design does not she just looks like a regular person (Too expressive? idk how else to describe it.)

Finally onto Harrold. The first time I saw him I honestly laughed the more I look at him I can see that he is still an attractive lad but the first impression reminded me of handsome squidward. Although Harrold's face is honestly not a game-breaker just mildly funny.

On a final note you can't please everyone on the internet and whatever decision you make would be the correct one. No matter what you do I'm looking forward to the next update.

 

[Oh!SugoiDesuNe]

If I can be honest, the old art was definitively better. By a lot.

 

[RedPillBlues]

Agreed.

 

[ItzSyther]

Honestly, I do prefer the old art not saying the new art is bad though, just lacks what the old art had.

 

[thevoid089]

Yeah! It wasn't bad but just not fit with the game setting and horror environment compare to the old arts, which is why I hope after Dev consult with the artist he will draw them to look more closer to the original style

 

[maxdrell]

Is there meant to be anything different in the "date" with Persephonie on Day 2? You seem to have a limited amount of times you can interact with objects, so is there a different result to the walk than "....Interesting" if you choose specific things to check out, or am I just reading into it too much?

Also, disagree about the new art, the old style is way more preferable for me. Can you at least keep the old art in the Gallery as viewable images?

 

[romaniranch]

The new art is pretty disgusting. The shading is gross, in particular.
I would honestly have clicked away and never played this game if this is what the art looked like when I first checked the game out.

 

[Netlinto]

I'm too scared to check with the flashlight ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
