Here's the state of the Black Heaven demo project, as of 8/9/2019:

• The Intro chapter has been revised in Twine and uploaded to its own page
• A logo has been designed and finalized (Credit: Joel Clapp)
• The first drafts of the intro scenes for the main characters (Ru, Leathe, and Izagi) have been completed
• The Art Brief has been revised to only include line art, rather than full-color art
• The Art Brief has been sent to a potential character artist
• Placeholder character sprites have been uploaded to the Ren'Py Alpha version of the game
• Temporary music has been added to the Alpha version of the game ("Empty Crown" by Yas)

The next major steps for the project are:

• Fleshing out and revising the intro scenes for the main characters
• Commissioning a character designer
• Commissioning a background artist
• Redesigning the UI of the Ren'Py Alpha Version
