Woo, look at that! Shawna, our lead programmer, is working on a total remake of the MC Doll customization screen. It has a bunch of new features that we'll be sharing over the next few months.

This video shows how you'll eventually be able to choose any color you want for any part of the doll. You can even just type in a hex code to get the exact shade you're after. And once you have picked out a color, you can give it a name so it gets described in the script and save it for future playthroughs in the "Custom Colors" section ✨

Doveless

Woooo, good work everyone! It looks great!

Mari

I was expecting improvements but this amount of depth is absolutely mind blowing! props to shawna for working this out and to you for deciding to implement it. I think ol2 is easily the most customizable game in this genre that I've seen. the end product is definitely going to be something special.

nightshade

Omg I love this! Thank you for this beautiful feature 🥰

Butter_Byeol

Okay class, everyone say "THANK YOU SHAWNA!😁😁😁"

rory 𖤐

“thank you shawna!!!” we all say unison

Nora Knox

Does the hair and eye color getting the "just like your mom" tag need to be an exact match or is it like a range? Like. If I wanted the same redish eyes and hair but a slightly different shade will it still count as being just like her?

Tai

Shawna is amazing!

Aetheries

Looking good 👍

gbpatch

I can't say for sure how every feature will end up working when it's completed. I'm sorry

idis91

Yarino Tengoku

Common Shawna W. Absolutely based.

Azura

That's so amazing! I'm so excited to be able to use this in game <3

abby

this is amazing omg.

Jason Li

This looks great! I’m curious how it’ll connect to the MC sharing hair/eye colours with Opal- right now that colour is tintable, I’m hoping as things develop it’ll still be possible to have the game recognise a similarity but be able to tweak it too. I’m excited to see where things go from here!

Sai Ridhe

Wow!!! I want to know how Shawna made it happen👀👀 seeing this is making me soo giddy!! Thank you Shawna!!

seyren

ooo that's lovely

Anna Bia

This is amazing! I love it! Thank you Shawna! You keep doing this amazing things, i'ts wonderfull to see!

Eni ÔwÔ?

This is amazing!! This changes so much in such a fun way!! I already really liked how much control over colors we had, but this is next level. I can’t wait to see how this works in game and AUGH THE CUSTOM COLOR SAVE SLOTS!!! THERES SO MANY /VVVPOS!! I’m so excited for this, Shawna is amazing 🫶

Ame Drawsz

Woah! This is insanely advanced! And I’m so appreciative of the new tab system as well! The horizontal tabs are gonna be so much more convenient ^_^

WhispWar

🥳😍

Declan O'Donnell

GREAT IDEA!!! i've just been using glitches in the current colour system to gain more saturation or hue for my colours. this'll be way easier than that! 👍

Mistrzostwo

Ohhh this is actually brilliant. It's helpful since favourite colors come up and color of clothes or rather our hair color is actually pointed out at some point in the demo...so yeah, thank you for going into detail on that! :)

Psykes

I love it. ❤️ How do we look up the hex code for the shades we want? Is there going be a reference for us to be able to decide? I.e. such-and-such hex code is lavender, silver, crimson, etc.?

Mint

yippie!! i'm excited to have the perfect shade of mint green hair lol

Cheese

So impressive!!

Amber Jordan

Ooo! I like the slider!

gbpatch

You have to have the hex code you want already from reading it off a list online or using an image editor or something. Or you can click around the color box to find a shade that works for you.

gbpatch

I had it confirmed to me that you'll be able to tweak the shade and have it still be noted as cranberry as long as you name the color cranberry still!

H.Haneul

Oh wow this is so intricate but in the best way

Ri Kaur

WOAH THIS LOOKS AMAZING!?!?!? HOW EXCITING JUST SEEING IT ALL IN ACTION HAS ME SO SO HYPED!!! This is really some of the best customization I have ever personally seen in a visual novel game before!! And it looks so aesthetically pleasing too!! I am curious though! Is it known when this feature will be added to the game?

Doc_Witch

It looks so clean! Shawna’s doing an amazing job!!!

Sarah

Ooh, I love the way this looks so far! The ability to save colors is wonderful!

Emi K

Shawna is doing an indreible job! I love how much cleaner this looks, and the ability to save colours and have them in the script is so cool!!

Supershybutpushingthroughit

Question: 🙋‍♀️ Will a named custom color be available to choose during the fav colors convo in Step 1?

gbpatch

I'm afraid not. The choice menu wouldn't be able to handle possibly a dozen more options if people use all their custom slots.

M

This is brilliant, I can already tell I'm gonna spend a lot of time tweaking my colors to be just perfect.

LukkaDev

Loving that there's still the "base" colors you can pick from and then adjust it from there with the new sliders. Being able to name the colors too will be nice! The new character creator set up in general is looking really good

TitanQueen

I swear, Shawna is just magic at this point

Astro Is Alive

Actually I am curious, is it possible to have a hue, saturation and brightness bars alongside just having the whole color wheel? just because I can be meticulous about colours and tend to do that when making art
