System Survey Results (Patreon)

Hello everyone,

Thanks for taking the survey! We had 292 responses, which is awesome. I thought I would post the results with the new standing portrait.

Question 1: Whether to keep face message box graphics when the standing portrait is visible.

• 241 - Keep it as is faceset + portrait
• 29 - remove faces when portrait is visible
• 19 - use faces only

Overwhelmingly, you guys voted to keep it as is. Which is a relief, as I liked it this way best as well. Plus, this is how I have everything already set up :-). This means that the portrait will be visible during conversations, and will display Aylia's basic mood (happy, normal, angry, embarassed). The message box face will then display her current emotion to that specific message (happy, normal, ecstatic, angry, exasperated, embarrassed, submission, sleep).

Question 2: How to handle minor characters.

• 207 - Keep it as is and use predominately default/standard face graphics
• 53 - Remove faces from minor characters and just give them unique names
• 29 - Remove faces and unique names

Again, you guys overwhelmingly voted to keep it as is. The RTP graphics may be a bit different, but I like having a face and don't think it is that distracting.

Question 3: Aylia's Standing Portrait - Peasant Dress

• 138 - Keep it as is and use the windblown version
• 151 - Create a more neutral portrait

This was the only close question, and the neutral version won out. I needed a break from inputting chapter 1 into the game, so I decided to just draw Aylia's new portrait (sorry, I know I should be working on chapter 1 :-) ). BUT, this way I can show you the new portrait (high pride version)! What do you all think?

Question 4: Corruption Portraits

• 218 - Having the standing portrait reflect Aylia's current pride (basic corruption measure).
• 68 - Keep it as is and do not have the portrait change

Guess you guys want a few more portraits. While this will create a bit more work per outfit, I think it will be a nice addition. I'm trying to be very selective about adding features at this point, since it has already taken me forever to get this first chapter done. This feature will add 2 portraits (for 3 total) per outfit, and the additional faces for each portrait. I think the reward is worth the work in this case, and you guys seem to agree.

Whew, that's that. Again, thanks for voting! I love to hear what you guys think. On that note, what do you think of the new portrait? Do you like it? I've already got rough drafts of the two other peasant dress portraits (medium pride and low pride). You guys will like 'em.

Alright, my next post will be an update on the game. I want to see how far I can get this week before posting another update. As always, thanks for your patience!
