#denimizu's art

[[Key:

Sweet Arthur: Green is when you love him back, red is when you reject him!

Bitter Arthur: Red is betrayed, but still in love, Black is rejection!]]

Just something fun to prove we aren't dead, and tide everyone over while we develop more substantial content!

Starting after the holiday season, we will be uploading short character bios every other week, with the inbetween weeks being devlogs!

We have decided to document our journey with developing the demo, so that you can see the progress that is being made! Each devlog will show sprites and/or background art, some sneak peeks, any funny glitches we encounter, and any other notes or updates that seem relevant. We hope you'll enjoy going on this learning experience with us!

Thanks for being patient with us. 😭

And YES! The ask box IS OPEN!

Haven't forgotten the devlog, but with Denimizu and I both sick this week, and some medical chaos IRL on my end, it hasn't been the most productive two weeks.

Denimizu has finished some GORGEOUS sprites of our prologue Arthur, though! So enjoy those while I get my ass back in the saddle!

Just some previews! You'll have to see the full-size, HD ones when you play the demo :)

Look at your childhood friend! Isn't he adorable??

[forgetmenightshadevn]

Speaking of figures from your past...

Arthur doesn't like conflict. But he really doesn't like it when you're scared.

[forgetmenightshadevn]

Your first childhood friend! :D

Absolutely nothing bad is going to happen to him, ever.

Uh oh.

[forgetmenightshadevn]

This man needs an intervention.

Devlog #2!!

Not too much to report this week, most of the work has been on scripting and continuing to paint backgrounds.

We are working on possibly having clickable in the background, that will turn full-color when you mouse over them, for easy spotting. Whether than makes it into the finished version, will depend on how quickly I can hone my skills.

But we DO have one very exciting little sneak peek for you!

Prologue sprites!!!

The prologue takes place when the MC is 10 and Arthur is 12.

You first meet Arthur when you stumble unknowingly into his literal neck of the woods.

And, uh...

...He takes some time to warm up... :')

But eventually he'll come around.

@denimizu and I are making a yanderesim!!! The art is gorgeous so if you're craving a new yandere boy to simp for, give us a follow!!

THIS MEDIA AND BLOG IS 18+.

A tale of rituals, death, and obsession in the New England pines…

You met Arthur Corey in the woods, seeking a respite from a fractious home; two isolated children unprotected from the harshness of life. After one miraculous day of joy together circumstances rip you apart, and the happiness of both of your futures depends on one choice made by a damaged child. You can be sure that regardless of how far you've moved on, Arthur has never forgotten you.

When an unexpected death pulls you back to the point of your childhood connection, what man will be waiting for you there: the one that's made you into his symbol of the perfect future, or the one that's clung to life only for revenge?

INFO:

Forget-Me-Nightshade is an upcoming 18+ yandere-sim visual novel that follows the main character's relationship with Arthur Corey, the heir to a history steeped in the occult, and last descendant to a line of powerful witchcraft.

After meeting as children, Arthur becomes powerfully obsessed with you, the first and only person to show him affection and sympathy in his isolated, unhappy upbringing. Whether that obsession is able to bloom into something like true love, or rot into darkness and hate, is entirely up to the player. But the player themselves will have their own painful demons to fight and even darker figures from their past than Arthur, who simply refuse to stay gone.

FMN will offer a unique playing experience in that there will be two routes the player can experience, based on their preferences. One that will suit players seeking a more traditional yandere-romance experience, and one for fans of the classic murder simulator.

It is possible to die, escape, or pair up romantically in both routes, so you won't miss out regardless of which flavor you prefer. Do you want to save Arthur from himself, confronting your own trauma in the process, and move forward together into a new beginning? Do you want to sink into your own bitter hurt, and follow him down the path of rituals and corrupted power? Both are more than encouraged.

The demo is currently in production and will feature a shared prologue for both routes as well as the first day or each route, so that you can sample both and see which is to your taste!
