[Devving Intensifies]

Alright! A few months ago we sat down and told you a little about "Promised The Future", our Sci-fy political VN we are working on. I'd like to announce this: We're still doing it! We've had some art done for the characters, we've had some progress on the common route, and a few scenes written for one of the heroine paths. Now you may not think that it's much progress, but honestly, the fact that were still going is a big deal. We continued the developing process well into this new year and started going!

Our talented musician has been hard at work making melodies and tracks, and making it generally a lot easier on us there. Our artists disappeared. Seriously, this happens a lot. We think everything is fine, they are happy, they're giving us great art, and suddenly they are gone. We quickly found a new artist, and we are really happy again, let's just hope that another disappearance is in our future. Meanwhile, we writers are probably the biggest problem. Between busy schedules and motivation were at a crawl, no worries we're working on it, and we're hoping to be going strong here soon.

Hopefully we'll not only be able to give you some official art, but maybe a taste of a track, and a blurb of writing here and there. See you next time!

Happy New Year From Arrival Studios

Happy New Year! It's Day one of 2014 and since we last remembered this existed it's been over half a year with not much but grim news to report.

That is changing, we hope, as we've lost members to the void, and yet still maintain our resolve to do what we can to bring the world a Visual Novel worth reading. A visual novel worth writing for!

Last time, if anyone read the only blog entry, we spoke about Saint Nic's, which at the time was more of an idea than anything else, and sadly that idea was crushed when we finally admitted to ourselves that it was basically a rip off of X-men no matter how hard we tried to spin it.

We've got an official site, though with the holidays, several members taking an unannounced leave of absence, and working mostly in shared folders in Google Drive it's not as active as we'd like it to be. None the less, should someone stumble upon us and become interested, our site is simply: www.arrivalstudios.org and is available for you to view information, and if you create an account, we'd be more than happy to answer questions and talk with potential fans (I know I would at least.)

In news, we have, as I already stated, abandoned Saint Nic's, but have picked up a new idea, ironed out the majority of it's edges and creases, and are very happy to report that the development is almost finished, and the writing and the art can begin soon with full production. Our writers are working on outlines for their character paths, and getting prepared to start writing the common route now. It's called "Promised The Future" and is a more sci-fy political based VN with six romance-able heroines, and an all over fun cast of colorful characters!

Besides this, we hope you check us out, and here's to a new year where we will tirelessly struggle to give you, the world, something worth reading. We hope your new year will be pleasant and enjoyable, and were excited to see how it all pans out.
