Siren's 4th Hscene animated!

Heyo again everyone! Here we are with Siren's 4th Hscene! There are a couple things I want to cover, but first off! I want to announce the results of the level Poll!

The winner of the poll is Catiya2. This means the next featured character will be female Aether (and perhaps a bit of Nova content).

(Also a heads up to all Groupie tiers, I will be posting high res art later today! Thought it might not be for a little bit)

Now let's get into what was covered this week.

The main thing was obviously the animation, so let's start with it. Above, you see the basic Idle animation.

Here we have the base loop.

A grind.

A hard/fast version.

And finally, I have been playing with a titjob loop.

There may be a bit of reworking, for this, but we'll see.

Those are the base 4 animations for this scene. The other thing that was actually done was something kind of small, but worth bringing up. The newest level will introduce a couple side characters. These characters will be allies/friends of Siren. They are the head of their respective sects on Pearlus.

We have Tiger the Tiderunner.

and we have Freya the Preserver

To get the biggest question out of the way, no, there are currently no planned Hscenes with these 2 characters.

You and Siren will be working together with these 2 in the newest level to cleanse the arctic waters.

Another very minor thing, which will probably be further improved on, is adding some glow to the foliage in Pearlus2, to break up some of the monotony of red.

Okok, that should probably sum up this week. Next week is going to likely be more of a catchup/balancing week. I am going to be fine-tuning the level, and enemy spawns. I am also going to be writing all the Transmission dialogue through the level now that the 2 new side characters are ready to show. I also have a bit of catch up to do on all the Hscenes with climax animations, and ordering buttons appropriately, etc.

Thanks again everyone! I hoped you liked the animation preview! I'll catch you next week!
