Sequel Talk - Magical Diary Wolf Hall

[Hound]

I know that as much as I'd like there to be some mass-effect style continuation from the first game I know it's not gonna happen. However I am curious, would something like a continuation even be possible in the game's engine?

[hanako]

Sure, there's multiple ways you can go about it in the engine. You can save data at the end of the game that will be automatically picked up by a different game (I think Analogue / Hate Plus does this behind the scenes), or you can manually export data and then load it into the new one, or you could just ask at the beginning of the next game. Since the art has been changed, even if we WERE making later years you'd have to redesign your character, so adding a few 'who did you date' questions wouldn't be that much more stumbling block.

Can we romance Pastel?! Possibly? Maybe?

[Schwarzbart]

Magical Diary is beside Royal Trap my personal favorite from the games I have from Hanako so I'm glad its still worked on.
Is there any planed release date mentioned already for Wolf Hall?
My personal hope is that it not get out around the same time as the Steam release of Academagia, my all time favorite, as this will have a major UI revision and the very large DLC 17.
(But there is currently no time frame as they still have to make the video for the Greenlight)

[hanako]

I don't have planned release dates for games that are almost entirely done, much less games that are almost entirely not started.

(Wolf Hall has many notes and art prepped, but no actual in-game content produced.)

[Schwarzbart]

Thanks for the fast answer.

[Hoosha]

hehe...um...now that A Little Lily Princess has been released...will the next big project you release be...Wolf Hall? Assuming nothing goes wrong again...?

[hanako]

Assuming, yes... but is it safe to assume?

[FantasyFan]

We're all hoping!

[SuperVampire]

I wonder will the music be the same as it was in the previous game (very interested)? And can your team make the exams in the next game much more harder (i'm not saying VERY VERY hard) because it was kinda easy.

[DamiensGirl]

I made an account just so I could see the progress with wolf hall! so glad to see it's still being talked about and knowing that i'll still be able to pursue Damien definitely makes it worth the wait. I'm dying to know more and even though there isn't an official release date, i would love to know the general time range of when it's supposed to be done. I can't get enough of magical diary and i can't imagine the time and effort that must go in to all of this. very excited!!

Awesome Sauce

[hanako]

Just so there's a little evidence in this thread that the project IS being worked on:


Still a long way to go before you'll have anything to play though.

[Gamer]

Looking forward to it! I just started playing Horse Hall again. It's too bad you can't play the game through graduation. There's so much content here. But it would be great to explore more of Minnie/Kyo and have the option to romance William, though a part of me hopes he and Damien can get back together, in spite of the fact that Damien is an evil demon. Haha.

[FantasyFan]

Looks awesome! Me likies the new art! I think I speak for everyone when I say we're still excited about this game.
