芹沢 (SERIZAWA) Developer’s Log 2

This will be my developer's journal through the process of creating "SERIZAWA," an interactive fiction game for the Game Boy Color, that tells the story of Dr. Serizawa from the original Japanese film "Gojira" film.

This devlog will be showing some of the character portraits I have done. I'm not sure I have a strong point when it comes to game design, but I can say character design and drawing people is really hard for me. So I was happy with how the portraits came together, even though I know they aren't “perfect." For each of the portraits of the characters, I will include a small bio for each character.

Dr. Daisuke Serizawa: A reclusive scientist and war veteran who has developed the Oxygen Destroyer, a weapon potentially more dangerous than Godzilla itself, and struggles with the moral implications of his invention.

Emiko Yamane: Dr. Yamane's daughter, who is torn between her love for Ogata and her loyalty to Dr. Serizawa, forcing her to reveal the secret of the Oxygen Destroyer.

Hideto Ogata: A salvage ship captain who loves Emiko and argues against Dr. Yamane for the necessity of killing Godzilla to protect humanity.

Dr. Kyohei Yamane: A paleontologist who studies Godzilla and advocates for its study rather than its destruction, hoping to learn from the creature's ability to withstand massive radiation.

So there’s what I have so far and I think that will be all the characters that will receive portraits in the game. The only other character that might would be the reporter, Hagiwara. Anyways that’s all I have for now. It will probably be character sprites next.
