Description
Run time: 5 minutes (7 total with loading screen).

For those who follow me on tumblr, you are well aware it is my intention to post my entire round by the original due date, Sunday March 6th, if possible. So while part 3 (out of 4, granted 4 is pretty short) will take the longest to complete due to the complexity, there is still a chance I'll be a little late and go into extension time, but for my own sanity, mentally and physical recovery, as well as in real life obligations and what not, I'm going to try to get it done ASAP.

This part is the only part with the visual novel effects. Those who have watched me progress through previous OCTs are familiar with this style; The reason for it being they are scenes where there isn't enough movement to really bother drawing the same pose 50x over, not to mention because I am taking the extra step to work with audio and flash as a whole, it helps cut down some of the extra workload I'm putting on myself. But I won't ramble too much about that.

I am beyond excited to face off against Miss Stormful and Miss Vongulli in TheHauntedLibraryOCT . They are an incredible team I have the honour of taking part in the WalkingCityOCT with and honestly I am slightly terrified because omigosh their work is fantastic alone... them as a TEAM, ahaha, I'm beyond nervous. But I absolutely adore Nestly and Reverb and hope to high heavens not only have I portrayed them properly, that what is to come in this round does them justice... it isn't going to be a nice round, I'm afraid, despite being the very first one. Generally things start to go south much later, but due to Adonis, Nestly, and Reverb's back stories... it had to happen.

No one be mad, ok? 8D;; Please.

In the meanwhile, enjoy! I just got the last of the voice acting so I'm going to tackle part two now.

Special thanks to , and especially my friend for stepping up to the plate to voice Nestly for me! She (as well as the whole team) did a wonderful job and I am ecstatic to show you their voice work in this entry!

Oh golly! I finally got around to watching this (like a week and a half later). Your artwork for the NPC bubbles is OUTSTANDING! The shading and attention to detail - you can tell you really put your whole heart into it! And the way Reverb floats. Just epic! And wonderful voice acting choices as usual!

Best of luck! I'm gonna go bite into part 2 now! This was wonderful!

Where is the Replay button!! (That was actually a complain XD )

AndΒ GigaPichu Β comment pretty much says all I want to say. Those 5 minutes are really exciting and that chasing scene at the beginning sure gets the excitement mood set!

And your voice actors are of the best! I am amazed how they can manage to find the right emotion for the story event, almost like they have shared making the story

Though, I kinda feel you overworked yourself on the first animation of Adonis running. The animation is a bit too smooth and it is a full body! That sure means there is more time put into making it.

Can't wait to see part 2! And hopefully, to see the extras as well

Thank you so much for the lovely comment!

Ironically the running animation didn't take too long to do. It's fun to do some animation here and there because sometimes I get a little "ehh" with how stiff the entry is. Of course that's probably just me because I stare at it day in and out.

I love working with these corvette actors, Aanzhen did a wonderful job as Nestly and I felt very natural conversing with her as Adonis/Reverb. Especially later on when things get heated and sad, she was emotionally spot on and I couldn't be prouder of her.

And there are always Extras, though not nearly as many in this round as my audition.
