PG Dev History Vol.04 - The Voice Acting And Brush Up-

Hi everyone! It's lvlv!

We were recently busy making that little butt-slapping mini-game and a new content update for the main game. They will soon be available to the public!

We also made a browser version of Beat Paradiso Guardian. However, due to some engine issues, the sound effects work less accurately in the browser version. We tried to fix it and it seems playable now! XD

This is the 4th part and maybe the last part of the development story!

We'll just skip the boring part of the making of the levels and enemies.

The collaboration with Saka was really a fun experience. He handled almost all the management of the voice acting works. What I offered him was just the materials he needed. And he did all the contacting, contract, front-line directing, and so on. He helped us so much with it!

After we signed up for the project and team information, we made some character sheets as well as some tone requirements for the audition. 

Here are some of them:

The actors need to pick the characters they want to play and submit their samples for the audition.

There were 99 actors attempted in the audition. It was a difficult job to pick 8 out of them...! 

Saka and I discussed a lot about who to choose. Besides preference, we still need to judge from the pronunciation and the way they moan. (lol)

We actually needed to finish the story first and then, do the audition. But it was our first time doing it and I absolutely had no idea about what we were doing. So it was not until 4 months later did we were ready for recording.

All roughs of the CGs were finished at that point. I don't know if they ever used them during recording... but here are some drafts I sent them:

There were about 1,400+ lines in total for the final voice clips. Although most of them are moans 🤣, it still took us a lot of effort to implement them into the game. 

We considered having another take if we were gonna animate the scenes when chatting with Shiba Yuji... but that would be another huge fee and extra translation work to cover...

Implementing the sex scenes was almost the last part of the development of the game...!

I was so afraid that I would immediately lose interest and get exhausted when I finished this part.😓 The truth is yes I was right!! It was both satisfying and frustrating at the same time to make these scenes. They took so much work to do!! I am highly doubting whether I will be able to do the rest if I put this part at the former part of the development...!

Maybe we may as well make a VN next time!🤣

==================================

And that wraps up the making of Paradiso Guardian!!

Actually, I skipped maybe... 2 years of bland action-game-making sessions that would ultimately boring to talk about...

Also, I didn't mention the fun part that Steam rejected us 3 times for not clarifying "this game contains incest" in the description. Which, I was totally not aware of... (maybe in my bones I feel it is normal to do it with brothers LOL)

Thanks for reading this long story!!

Maybe see you in our next project!!XD
