Latest batch of work on the Hive!

Working on the park! The background seemed a bit too monotonous; there was just a view of some plains and the enclosing wall of the facility. So, I decided to redesign it and replace it with a forest.

It was extremely time-consuming, but the park looks bigger and more alive this way.

After a few color studies... 

And here's the final result! As usual, every clickable element is on its own layer, so it can be exported separately. The swings, slide, spring horses, and seesaw will be clickable. 

After all the work on the background, there wasn't much time left to work on a lot. I modified a previous scene to apply the night filter (the one I was talking about last week). The interesting thing about this filter is that it can be applied to the background, the characters, or both. So, I can keep the special version of a nighttime background and just apply the filter to the characters.

I also worked on a scene in the living room with the whole "family". The discussion seems to revolve around the pull-ups June brought back from the shop. The scene plays differently depending on if June had an accident prior.

And that's it for today! Next week, I'll probably work a bit more on the next in-game scenes and maybe on more outfits!
