I've got the basics of act one (11 scenes/chapters) fully coded and am playing catch up with the assets and UI. I'll be starting on act two probably next month and it'll take twice as long because important player decisions will start happening in there and programming that is more complicated to keep track of.
I'm generally new to backgrounds but I want the perspectives to be funky art house-esk so those are going to be difficult. I'm not 100% sure if I should be going for painted with outlines for the backgrounds or if I should scratch the outlines to give it better focus. That way the characters stand out more???
I kind of like the blurry look but it might not blend well with the character style:
