Update: 24/04/2024

I'm going to redo this entire thing to be more polished to be sold but I don't have the skills or popularity yet for that to be effective so I'm not touching that project file until I'm a better developer and I'm well known enough to get a Kickstarter to afford help for things like sprites and voice acting. The next post you'll see here will be in at least 3 years time and it'll probably be about making a demo for said Kickstarter. I might upload the current source code here just for preservation sake as basically everything (music, voice acting, art, coding, writing) will be modified in some way and I like preservation.

Art: my artstyle keeps changing and I want to learn how to animate better. Also I've sketched better designs for Caledeca and Lady Roselyn so I have to redo all those animations anyway. Might make the environment like a flat 3D layered thing to make it look cooler? Idk.

Music: I can tell I'll find the current music bad in a few years time so I'll do a bit of tweaking to the songs.

Voice acting: I still want to voice Caledeca and Lady Roselyn but I have a better mic now and also my voice changed because ✨ puberty✨.

Coding: self explanatory. The current code is held together with sticky tape.

Writing: lore has changed. Intro needs changing. Dialogue needs changing to sound better. If I give myself more time to keep editing the lore, then it'll be cooler.

That's all for now.

The Sapphic Knightess holding the sapphic flag

Pride month wooooooo

Couldn't be bothered to add a background.

A remixed version of the start screen music with drums and stuff

also has the leitmotif from the roboska songs and there is a canonical reason for that...apart from me recycling

I came up with this melody while being bored in a music composition lesson. It's also start screen music but at a specific point of the game which deserves a cooler version. It's not going to fade out like that in the actual game, that's just for the non-game version to sound less abrupt and still have the looping bit.

Update 02/01/2024

First update of the year!

Computer is still in purgatory and it's because of that 1 wire I accidentally ripped out during surgery and a new one needs to be fitted and it has to come from Poland in the post. Hopefully it should be fixed by next week so I can start on the 3D models.

I've made a plan for the first act and I've typed bits of the script here and there. I've also got a better idea for the box art. I drew this with a mouse on MS Paint but hopefully you get the general idea.

The main villain, the knightess, is at an angle and looking into your soul. She's pointing her sword at you and I don't have the typewriter font on this computer so I used the next best thing.

I've also thought about making a kickstarter at some point once I've gotten half of act 1 done so I can make it into a demo. I'll also have to ask my parents to get me a debit card but I'll probably get that sorted out during the summer holidays. Uploading onto steam and android (and especially apple) costs money and I also want to put it on the playstation store which costs a lot of money aswell (and i have no idea how to port godot games to playstation so I'll have to pay a company to do it for me). Maybe on switch or whatever latest nintendo console is around, but things like console ports and localisation and hiring voice actors costs money and I don't want to have to keep asking my parents for money or have to work a minimum wage job. Probably won't release it physically though as I feel like it's too short to get a physical release. I don't want to make it digital only though so if my plan works than it'll end up in a collection later down the line.

Computer at repair shop

Because of Christmas, I'm getting my computer back at maybe Wednesday but my family has planned to go visit my grandparents for a couple days mid next week so idk when I'll get it back exactly. I have all the files on my backup USB stick but there wasn't enough space on it for all of the programs I use (godot, medibang paint pro, lmms, pencil2d etc) and the computer I'm using currently (my dad's backup work laptop) doesn't have them already installed and I don't want to install a bunch of software on here (also the specs of this laptop aren't the best: the fan goes crazy with too many firefox tabs open, so i'm not even sure if programs like godot will run if it can't even run roblox theme park tycoon 2 without the fan being on full blast).

I'm saying this here as this maybe the last update of this year, and I don't want to leave on a dissapointing note of "oh i still haven't even gotten the art for the bakery drawn yet and it's the first fricking shop you encounter". Please keep in mind that next year is going to be a busy one for me because of my GCSEs (very very important exams which decide what college I can go to, which decides what uni I can go to, which decides my entire future). I won't have much free time on the easter holidays and the next long break I get from school (with no revision stuff) is the summer holidays so expect this blog to be going crazy then. I promise I'll not let this take years and years but please be considerate about stuff like the failed drive transplant of my computer causing it to not power on (knocked a wire out while replacing the HDD with an SSD).

Anyway I'll be getting my new mic tomorrow at Christmas which according to dad is "a good one". My headset mic refuses to be recognised on my computer so I've asked for a USB mic as the built in mic on my computer sucks. I also want to rewrite a bunch of cutscenes that I've already written to make them better (I have to revoice them all anyway and the dialogue system has changed so I would have to remake them anyway). This video is now cut from the game, minor spoilers (like 1 line) but you'll forget about it by the time the game comes out. It plays right after the tutorial battle if you accept the paper that teaches you how to do a pacify spell. Due to it's length and the fact that the old dialogue auto progresses all the time, I made it a video to avoid coding it all. When rewriting it, I'll make it shorter and organise everything better. Also it won't all be voiced, just the important lines. I feel like I gave away too much info with Lady Roselyn in this conversation which doesn't fit her character, so I'll limit the amount she says in the final piece (she is a spy after all). Background music is on my Newgrounds if you're curious.

That's all for 2023. - PearlHikara

Kuraiyaka GL2

Her previous designs all suck so I basically redesigned her from scratch with the only details remaining being her twin drills, yellow hair and pink colour scheme. I have no idea how many redesigns this character has gotten but it's so many that I've lost count. Previous ver. I find the gacha games useful for coming up with the base for a character design when I have no ideas. I'll probably draw her in this pose at some point in time. I also shortened her name a bit to make it easier to pronounce.

About Roboska

I have not abandoned it. I'm too determined to abandon it. Hell, I'll even sell me soul to Satan if he lets me complete this project before I die.

So what the hell am I talking about? Well...

Roboska is a game series that I'm planning on making over the next few...decades. Yeah...this is going to take a while. I don't mind though as this is my magnum opus, my dream game series, the only reason I exist in this world, the thing I really want to make and will do anything to be able to complete it in my vision. I've been working on it (mainly character designs and writing) since I was 12 and it's evolved from just a little animation series I had planned for 2021, to a whole meta multiverse kind of thing. Is it ambitious? Absolutely. However you'll see why I care so damn much about this thing once it actually starts to come out. This will be the highlight of my game development career and I will only be known as "that girl who made roboska" from that day forward.

The first one is "The Sapphic Princess", which I've already started. I've chucked little bits of lore into some of my game jam games so technically the first one is some 400 word visual novel I made in 2 days...Anyway, I tried making this idea back in 2022 but I lost motivation due to the limitations I gave myself. I still released it under the name "Sci-Fi RaiRoboska!?". It sucks and it takes up way too much memory thanks to me being a stubborn little brat who decided to code the entire thing in Scratch. To be fair, this was made before I knew what Godot was. The art is okay, the music is fine, the story really needs some work, overall it's the disappointment of the family and will not be considered canon. I keep it up though as it's part of history and also it explains what I was doing for 10 months of my life. Originally roboska was just that (and 2 squeals I had planned, which I still do to a degree) but it's evolved since then and has crossed over with some other projects that I've abandoned.

The Sapphic Princess (or LV for short) is the indirect prequel to the big one: Roboska: kanjou! It's a remake of Sci-Fi RaiRoboska but with much more content in, way more horror and 4th wall breaks, voice acting, 3D animations and also the planned squeal shoved in as well to make the ending more satisfying. It's in a completely different world with the main link between the 2 being the roboska experiments. Same experiment, different people testing on different worlds. Same with the 3rd one: Roboska: owari. Although that one takes place in the same world as kanjou, just with a different god with different motives testing it. I don't want to go into too much detail, but I've been tweaking and perfecting the story for 3 years now, and will continue to do so. I upload almost every piece of digital art that I do so here's a bunch of roboska art from both LV and kanjou (some of it is outdated).

In conclusion: I did not abandon roboska as a whole, just Sci-Fi RaiRoboska. It has evolved into something much greater than I envisioned and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I enjoy making it.

Also "roboska" doesn't mean anything, it's just a bunch of gibberish I chucked together back in 2021 that sounded cool and I've gotten too attached to it. I'll think of some kind of lore meaning. The closest I've gotten is that the prefix "robo-" means "automation" and suka in japanese (ska is spelt suka in katakana) means a bunch of random stuff according to google:

It's also a russian swear word apparently.

I guess any of these translations could work is you make it very abstract (or if roboska is short for a longer phrase). Roboska is used to describe a pre-destined event where an alien species called "emeraldeyes" directly communicate with humans to "test their limits of imorality" when given the opportunity to screw up fictional lives and not have to face any real world consequences. The idea of losing the lottery could work in the sense of the fictional characters having bad luck for being born just to suffer. I'm not too sure of the name meaning just yet. I'll think of something...eventually. It's a little annoying how tumblr says the username "roboska" is already taken so I had to name the LV blog "roboska-LV" which means I have to keep changing it every time I start work on the next one and make all the previous links to it not work anymore.

[rosieuv]

Can anybody think of a cooler name for a game series I have planned? Currently it's called "Roboska" but that's just gibberish and I want it to have some actual meaning.

The basic plot is it's a series of experiments with different worlds created by a race called "The Emeraldeyes" that started with someone called Nono Natsuki communicating directly from the fictional world to the real world (our world) and the whole theme is on reality and fiction and the control both sides have. The word "Roboska" is a word in the fictional world (the emeraldeye one) which is the name of a prophecy of the emeraldeyes one day communicating directly with the real world and now just manipulating it from afar, which eventually causes the apocalypse to their world. It's all sci-fi and has a lot of Japanese influence over there as the emeraldeyes' forms are that of anime styled characters because they thought it looked cool when they looked into the emerald thing which shows the real world.

I've tried looking on a Japanese dictionary website for Japanese words I could use to create like a combo word that's roughly the same amount of syllables but I can't think of anything that looks good written in romanji and sounds good when spoken that also is unique. Maybe like a kanji and English word combo? Idk. I don't want it too long though as then the game titles would be too long as they're formatted like this (I only have the titles to 2 of the 4 finalised):

The Sapphic Princess: Roboska LV

God's Favourite Torture Sim: Roboska kanjou!

Basically subheadings in the title but if the shorter more used title was the same length then it'll be too long.

I have just realised that it's new year's eve.

Well, staying up past midnight is easy for me as my sleep scedule's a bit of a wreck. I don't have anything that I'm really thrilled about for 2024 (apart from deltarune chapter 3 and 4 possibly coming out that year) and I'm ending on a really lame year art wise as I still don't have my computer and I don't want to have to reinstall drivers and stuff. At least I have the excuse to make the 2024 drawings folder on my backup USB.

I like having things in chronological order.

Anyway, here's the first and last drawings from each year because why not.

2019:

This one only dates back to the 20th July as this was before I took art seriously as a hobby. I drew this in MS paint for a roblox game I was making.

This dates back to the 25th December and I drew this in ibis paint x on my dad's old phone that me and my brothers shared. To play music in the background, I would have youtube as a window at the top and listen to the same 5 songs on loop. This took a considerable amount of time for some reason.

2020:

This dates back to the 18th January and I drew this on my phone as I just got it at this point (the same phone that I still have currently). I had no idea what I was doing and it shows.

This dates back to the 29th December and it seems like I've discovered undertale. This was when I started using my crappy laptop again and I drew this with the touchscreen it had (it was one of those hybrid laptop-tablet things) with my finger and autodesk sketchbook.

2021:

The first one is technically the first of 2021 as it dates back to the 16th of January, but I've posted that one a lot whenever I redraw it every year so here's the drawing I drew the day after. It was for an animation meme but I saved it into the folder anyway for some reason.

I was trying to model in blender for the first time towards the end of 2021 so the last picture is a boring sketch of anatomy from the 31st December to be used as refrence. The last actual artwork was a day before and at this point I had a little drawing tablet and was posting art on Newgrounds. I also started using medibang paint pro as autodesk sketchbook stopped working.

2022:

The first drawing I have in my 2022 folder was technically from 10:30 PM on the 31st as I got impatient, but I put it here anyway. It's a gif but I made it into a png so I can put it on a tumblr post. Technically the first one was this drawing I made about 12 hours later on the 1st January. On newgrounds it's regarded as being in 2021 as it's in EST and my time zone is a couple hours ahead.

The last drawing I have dates back to the 27th December where I was experimenting with art styles as I had just gotten a new idea for a game (what is now known as Roboska LV).

2023:

Both of these date back to the 1st January however the seccond one was exported 40 minuites later according to the meta data. The first one is another redraw while the seccond one is a character profile and I just realised there's no shading on the hoodie.

This dates back to the 9th December and I haven't been able to draw anything digitally since my computer's botched surgery on the 16th. I have drawn some stuff in my notebook though, so here's the "final" drawings of 2023 (basically anything in my notebook since the 9th). The dates are in the bottom corners. I didn't bother with fixing the lighting.

I drew that picture of Kokichi Oma in the dark with only the light of my phone torch as I drew it while a film was playing in my school sports hall with dominos pizza. The last 2 I drew on the last day of school while completly ignoring everyone partying in the form room.

I got a book on how to draw in a manga art style so this is me trying to figure out how to adapt the tips into my artstyle to make it not suck.

This is technically the last drawing of 2023. I drew it on the 26th. It also featured in the post about my personal best pencil drawings of 2023 too: https://pearlhikara.tumblr.com/post/737810429204643840/best-drawings-of-2023-notebook-12-and-13

Looking back, I don't think my change in art style from 2023 is as stark as the other years. I don't like how my art keeps changing and I want to just keep it at a consistent "very very good" and leave it at that as the little changes annoy me as I like consistency.

In terms of actual new year stuff, I'll probably just rewatch "who framed roger rabbit?" and go downstairs when it's near midnight to watch the fireworks on TV.

I've combined them as most of notebook 12 is just my revision notes for my mock GCSE and 13 is only about 1/5 full at the moment. These are from the latter half of 2023. I tend to sketch in my notebook in my free time at school so there isn't any for over the summer holidays.

That's all for 12!

12 and 13 don't seem to have as much pencil smudging as all my previous notebooks.

List of all characters (top to bottom, left to right):

Sakura Kayoubi (scrapped character)

Rosie Vita (design pretty much hasn't changed from her original sketch) (roboska-lv)

Sir Joseph Aurum (Roboska LV)

the DDLC girls (Doki Doki Literature Club)

Cordelia Oakwood and not sure on the seccond woman's name I haven't decided yet (Roboska LV)

Model: 6-3 Riley (Roboska kanjou!)

Sadie Shortbread (Roboska kanjou!)

AD (Roboska kanjou!)

Pavel (Roboska kanjou!)

Timothy Scarlett (Roboska LV/kanjou!)

Angelica California (Roboska kanjou!)

Claudia-Juiliet (Roboska kanjou!)

Kuraiyaka (Roboska LV/kanjou!)

Timothy Scarlett (Roboska LV/kanjou!) (he gets a lot of redesigns)

Eclipse Nightfall (Roboska LV)

Lance Zuànshí (Roboska kanjou!)

Best notebook drawings of 2023: notebook 11

I've been keeping a series of notebooks since the begining of year 8 in 2020. I may do another post like this for them, but those drawings kinda suck. I can only post 10 on 1 post so I'm splitting them up. I draw much better digitally and mainly use my notebook to draw character designs of my own OCs or fanart of other characters. The images have been digitally enhanced as the lighting sucked in the original pictures and you could barely see the drawings. All in chronological order. These are from early in the year.

fun fact: the last 2 are on opposite pages.

The last 2 here were also on opposite pages.

Here's the source code of what I have currently. I'm going to remake it, probably from scratch, so it's just here for preservation sake.

Update: 24/04/2024

I'm going to redo this entire thing to be more polished to be sold but I don't have the skills or popularity yet for that to be effective so I'm not touching that project file until I'm a better developer and I'm well known enough to get a Kickstarter to afford help for things like sprites and voice acting. The next post you'll see here will be in at least 3 years time and it'll probably be about making a demo for said Kickstarter. I might upload the current source code here just for preservation sake as basically everything (music, voice acting, art, coding, writing) will be modified in some way and I like preservation.

Art: my artstyle keeps changing and I want to learn how to animate better. Also I've sketched better designs for Caledeca and Lady Roselyn so I have to redo all those animations anyway. Might make the environment like a flat 3D layered thing to make it look cooler? Idk.

Music: I can tell I'll find the current music bad in a few years time so I'll do a bit of tweaking to the songs.

Voice acting: I still want to voice Caledeca and Lady Roselyn but I have a better mic now and also my voice changed because ✨ puberty✨.

Coding: self explanatory. The current code is held together with sticky tape.

Writing: lore has changed. Intro needs changing. Dialogue needs changing to sound better. If I give myself more time to keep editing the lore, then it'll be cooler.

That's all for now.

I balanced out the volume a bit and did a bit of editing with the instruments. The synth brass is now a tuba with reverb and a low pass filter, the drums right before the loop have altered slightly and because the flute synth's sample has this annoying clipping noise, I edited the MIDI of the longer notes so it doesn't make the clipping noise and instead sounds more vibrato (longer notes have this looping clipping noise so I made it a bunch of really short notes in a consecuitive line instead that sounds like a long note due to the way the instrument loops). Nothing too extravagant and you probably couldn't tell if I didn't point it out to you, but it sounds a bit better now.

A remixed version of the start screen music with drums and stuff

also has the leitmotif from the roboska songs and there is a canonical reason for that...apart from me recycling

I came up with this melody while being bored in a music composition lesson. It's also start screen music but at a specific point of the game which deserves a cooler version. It's not going to fade out like that in the actual game, that's just for the non-game version to sound less abrupt and still have the looping bit.
