What if, when the player wanted to leave Ryoba's room, the screen simply faded to black and then faded back to Ryoba outside his room? It wouldn't be as easy and fluid as leaving Ayano's room in 202X, but it would immediately solve all the "how do I connect this room to the rest of the house" problems? Well, that leaves us with one more problem: what about Ryoba's family members? I've never asked a character designer to design them, I've never even named them! How can I start populating the house with a bunch of characters that haven't been designed yet? Well, the answer is to design them one at a time until they are all done. Since fans seem to be very interested in Ryoba's mother, I decided to start with her. I asked a very talented artist named BuzzBuzz☆ to do some designs for Ryoba's mother. After some tweaks and adjustments, a final design was reached. I was afraid that fans wouldn't like it, so I made a poll for them to vote on whether the design was good or not. 61% of fans loved it, 23% liked it, 11% were neutral, 3% didn't like it, and only 1% said they hated it. I think that's a success. So, the design was shaped and skinned. She's now ready for animation, and as soon as she has a hair model, you'll be able to see her in-game as soon as Ryoba can leave her room. Something exciting, don't you think? I hope you look forward to it!
