Castle Shikigami 1 [Shikigami no Shiro] : Update 1/26, 50% Completion!

the blur is due to the game itself.  These screenshots don't help due their own compression and what not but it does look better in game.  I thought the skinny one was harder to read.  Course I could be odd and I'm the minority so hopefully if its a problem others will chime in although I'm not sure iif cj iwakura wouldlike that after doing all these graphics

If it's any consolation, our testers say it looks fine in action. I welcome your feedback if you care to try it out.

So what's your guys thoughts on the title screen? Edit it, or leave it be?



I'm thinking if I were to edit it, I'd stretch out the white boxes and put something to the effect of
'The Castle of Shikigami'. Just as an idea.

“Castle Shikigami” is less awkward-sounding, methinks.

I don’t know what exactly you mean by stretching out the boxes, but I get the feeling that would kind of kill the “traditional Japanese design” look it has going (I’m like 50% sure there’s someone out there who could identify it by name). You’d be better off mimicking the Evolution logo, which is not only itself evocative of a Japanese style of lacquerware, but also gives you a reliable guide to work from, look-wise.

Funny you should mention, because I was considering that too.

(The EX logo appears when you start the game, the one above when you start Normal mode.)



Uses the same motif.


And what I mean is basically making those squares into rectangles, and replacing them with English text.

At very least, I'll probably do a mock-up of what I have in mind.

Major work in progress, but I think it's time to start getting this baby noticed.


I personally can't wait to see people's reactions to the plot twists in Kim and Tagami's stories.

Majorly twisted stuff.
