Ron's Room! (Patreon)

Hey everyone! This week I’ve worked on Ron’s room. Now as you might remember from Lune’s story; this legendary room has always been accessible, but it was never more then just a black screen. I even joked about it for the longest time ;D But now the room is fully sketched out.

A bit of extra guest room

Ron is not part of the crew, and staying in a guestroom. Now to be able to tell his story, I needed to expand the room a bit. And so this is what I made.

Ron is the man on the right. He is an obsessive inventor who build many strange devices in his life. He’s pretty much always working, and therefore often hard to talk to.

But Ron’s husband on the other hand, is always very friendly, helpful and happy to talk about Ron’s many creations! (I thought they would be more interesting as a duo, instead of just having Ron there.)

And the current invention Ron works on is a time-travel-helmet (which will be of great use for Keen eventually). And I thought it would be nice to show more and more complete versions of the helmet as the game progresses. ...Or perhaps Keen needs to help find a few key items to make it work? Well, I don’t know yet- what do you think?

The thinking machine

And then there is the bedroom-part of the room. Now it would of course be strange if you could’nt go there. So I drew something for that as well. And what you see here on the right side, is a Thinking-chair. It’s not only the perfect gift for an inventor, but it also gave me the oppertunity to let Ron use Keens magazines as a footstool :) (This is relevant for Lune het story).

Testing the scenes

And here you can see some variations of the scene with the characters in it. These locations always have a dual purpose; it’s a place you can explore, but they also have to work as the background for the dialog scenes. And in this case I think they work pretty well ;)

Next

Well, and those are the sketches for Ron’s room. I love to hear what you think of it all!

The next step is to refine these sketches. But I might also switch back to the scenes around Keens school first. There both fun scenes to work on. But whatever it will be- I’ll show you soon!

Take care & all the best!
