Hi. We're the Dark Potato Society. Basically We're a bunch of friends that have gathered together to make some games.
We're just people that enjoy playing games and making games, and lasers and more lasers.
Game we are making

Design Characters Finalised, work on concepts started
Gantt chart and concept schedule created, expected by end of the month for Marice concepts to come out and be finalised.
School Divisions / Departments done, all work passed to Gerald for concept art. Due to Gerald's schedule, concepts may not be out for uniforms / badges soon, set to a lower priority.
Programming 3D Bullets have a problem with perspective. Considering changing into 2D mapping for the bullets, needs to be tested out.
Engine is slowly being fixed Due to WW's schedule, engine progress will be slowed down. Nothing urgent at the moment.
Expected Work Done on Sunday Modeling Sheet / Draft for 3D modelers to get a rough outlook on time needed to create.
Ok, Ghoststaker and I have come out with a schedule for this week.

We had a awesome meeting today. We've got work done, we got the story going, we got the GDD semi finished, and template for TDD!
And to add up, we have new concepts for Marice, this time a more "onee-san" feeling and colder.
I've also cleaned the first concept art for Marice and added a effect making her look quite good.
Marice Bankai!
Valkyrie Marice?
Cleaned and pleasant looking Marice
Right. The current concept art also suggests that we could make 2 sister for Marice instead, as they really look like sisters. Let me know what you think.
These few days I've been looking for artists to help us in the game. As I couldn't possibly cope with doing all 3D art assets and coding the engine. And good news! I found 1 concept artist to help us with our game.
Welcome Gerald a.k.a Cool Guy to the team!
Gerald has seen our game concepts and documents already. He has helped us drawn Marice purely based on descriptions and when he can't see properly. (That is like wtf right?)
