Hello, It's been a while! but here are small updates, these were some of the things I made in may:

Image one: The faces I have so far & item rarity.

As of right now, I plan on having 4 rarity for the clothing pieces into the game. Common, Rare, Super rare and Super Super rare. This is the same for faces. It will go from very simple to, hopefully, something SSR worthy :3.

Rn I'm pretty proud of the golden vampire look I made, will make it part of a bigger outfit later. Faces won't be mixable though (where you fit the eyes with a different mouth), that seems way too complex for me right now.

Image two: leg slightly fixed.

I already had some pieces of stockings/shoes done with the previous legs and thighs, so I didn't want to change the shape too much. Instead I changed the angle of the left knee and removed the line that defined the ankle and put it on the outside instead. I am not planning on drawing toes, cause those are both difficult and freaks me out T-T.

Be prepared for some sandals with socks...

Image three: UI refined.

The two pink boxes at the top, will be for Clothes/Item Icons and speech bubble.

The coin is the in game currency you get paid with when you finish styling an NPC successfully, finishing a level and will receive along with other rewards when finishing a full set of an outfit. I'll think of more ways you can receive coins later, I think this is enough work for a programmer. You can use the coin to buy clothes, fashion resources, dye ingredient and crafting ingredient.

The crystal is the in game currency that can be used to get SR & SSR clothes. This was very inspired by love Nikki and any other fashion game nowadays, but there won't be any in game purchases cause I want the game to be very free to play. of course, this could change depending on the players' opinions and if me and my team actually succeed at turning this into a big thing and need to pay our bills. Luckily we still live with our parents, so it ain't necessary yet lol. But ye, crystals can be gotten through completing level, crafting outfits and in game styling competitions.

Styling Tags are the colorful boxes at the bottom. The clothing pieces will be tagged with a maximum of 2 tags so they are easier to find and NPCs will use these tags to instruct you on what outfit they want.

Image four: Plans for rewards and Rare outfit example (minus the face)

Okay so I REALLY hate the rewards you get from most dress up games nowadays, especially the gacha ones. I don't like spending 2000+ diamonds on an outfit and get 30 to 50 diamonds back for it. And since I ain't part of a big corporation and very much like spoiling myself with goodies, I'm gonna make the rewards HUGE (I don't wanna be broke when I play my own game :3)

Here is what I have planned: Common suits = 50 diamonds & 50.000 coin reward. Rare suits = 150 diamonds & 200.000 coin reward. SR suits = 250 diamonds & 500.000 coin reward. SSR suits = 500 diamonds & 800.000. (Might change in the future, won't go any lower tho.)

Outfit example: A rare suit with the tag Sexy and Mature, the face is a current placeholder cause I plan on putting it on a SSR suit. The suit exists out of: A dress, Hair, shoes, Jacket, Stockings, a belt accessory and later on, a face.

Thank you for reading this paragraph! next time I post, I will go in depth on the NPC's and map where the levels will be. The main screen is still a work in progress, nothing new on that yet. Till next update!

Hello! I'm Felix, he/him and I'm a 2d and 3d game artist, and lately I've been working on a dress up game that I've had as a dream for a while. A dress up game inspired by Love Nikki and Style Savvy, but 2d since my 3d character skills aren't that good yet.

I am currently a single person working on the project, but I have some options already when it comes to friends that can code. If I can convince them to help out, then expect an update with actual gameplay in the near future. For know I will be posting the outfits and UI of the game.

• I loved dress up games and fashion games as a child, was honestly heartbroken when I searched for more fashion games and found so little of them. There are a lot of great games already and I have played and still play the majority of them (Style Savvy, model debut, love Nikki, shining Nikki, SuitU, time princess, Alice closet and etc...), but only Style Savvy and shining Nikki really gave me the satisfaction of dressing up and as a person of color, it felt limitless.
• Here is what I'm making (For now): A dress up game with a competitive mechanic, where players can dress up and show their outfits off to each other. A free dressing room, where you can create an outfit and save it so it shows up on the main screen. Story and NPC fashion fights, where you go through the story in the way you would in love Nikki and fight NPCs. (This is like already too big for me, but I am ambitious!)
• Quick note: I am not trying to make the next big dress up game, nor am I trying to be better than the already existing works out there. The very reason this projects exists is because I LOVE the named dress up games, it fills my heart with whimsy and happiness. I want to make something to expand the genre, even if it's a bit ugly or not dress up game level of good, I wanna contribute.

Image one: Concept for the dressing room UI (WIP, will change in the future!!)

• I am not an anime artist, since I find the art style kinda difficult to draw >o<. But I do understand that the anime style is very attractive to players, so there will be a mix my stylized style with a bit of anime.

Image two: Body type for the game (WIP, might change in the future!!)

• I want to make the base body and style of the game a little more mature, Not sexual or anything. Already existing dress up games are mostly focused on a specific beauty standard, which is lean, skinny queens and as a child that grew up a little chubby, it never really felt like dressing a character as me but dressing up another person. And I kinda wanna give my dress up character something I can relate with, also it makes the character look mature and older.

Image three: The main game screen (WIP, will change in the future!!)

• Hm... I am not happy with the UI layout. So far, this is how the main screen will look like. Expect a lot of changes. Don't have much to say so far. The red outfit is a two piece thing (Top and skirt), which is still a work in progress and will become something bigger in the future.

Image four: the skin tones so far

• So far I have 3 types of skin tones to work with, which makes color theory for all the skins much easier and making the make-up work with all the skins. For now I don't have any plans of making any crazy poses with my bases, but I will definitely make background pieces that you can use with different outfits and so on.

Thank you for taking the time to read all of this and hopefully I'll have more outfits to show in the future as well as actual gameplay. before I go: should I make this game mobile only or also a pc version?
