[14/09/09] AADS & Melancholika

Over the course of the day, a plot line for the 1st case has been written by Matthew Hempstead, the story wright and game designer, for the currently unnamed Ace Attorney fan game announced yesterday. A demo should be expected by the end of September.

Artist ALGraphics, the artist who worked on Operation Libra, has also composed some concept art revolving around the prosecutor of the case, "Deimos Aries".

Another game project, lead by game designer Choi Hyun-Woo, has also been announced, due for August 2010. Currently named "Melancholika", the project team is currently composed of 3 artists, 2 game designers, 1 game programmer and 3 story wrights. the game is set to be a Fire Emblem-esque game, revolving around a futuristic theme. Annie Que, the story wright for this project, has written an introduction for the game, including a back story:

"A big disaster has destroyed everything that was known to man, the only ones that survived were children. The world is now shattered to pieces. Many new species of human were also created during the disaster (genetic mutation). Magic becomes the new "technology". Only the members of one specific species can travel between worlds freely. These children grow up and establish a new government (council that involves all the species) to govern the new world. A few generations later, when the old world becomes a legend in the new people's minds, the government becomes corrupt and discovers a manuscript from the old world that allows for technology."

I will be working on both projects during the course of the next year with a productive task team in each. Any further updates of either games will be announced.
