Also, as a small gift, have the theme of Wakamoto Express - almost officially the embodiment (em...placement?) of EG at Aoki's hometown. Or perhaps officially. Did you know--? A certain heroine is particularly fond of the place. Does that make her EG's almost official heroine? I'd even draw her in a superhero costume but first, I don't draw and second, that'd give her away. But you're all welcome to imagine Akane, Kanade, Satsuki, Rin or Yuki as super heroines.

Missed us? We missed you too. After all the feedback we received - and for which we cannot thank enough - we are undergoing several changes in order to deliver the best visual novel we can. That's what you deserve, after all. So, what are these changes?

• We are recruiting!
  
• Prologue and Chapter 1 are to be reworked
  
• The project name has changed
  

Say, what do you think of Mindstorm? Did stories revolving the concept sprout in your mind after you heard of it? This is a good first step~! Lend your talents to Violeta Hill. We want writers who have the hollistic view of how a story should unfold and the attention to detail that a pleasant, fluid prose needs. In short, we want good writers who are insterested in the project.

• How to apply: send a PM to Helvetica Standard or Chocolatemilkgod with the reasons why you want to join, a piece of your writing and your disponibility for the next few months.
  
• Skills needed: flexibilty and professionalism to work with an established framework; commitment to the project; fluid prose and ability to show instead of telling; regular presence on Skype
  

Have you ever dreamed of working with animation? Have you ever dreamed of working with Red Lattice Studio? Then we have something for you. Violeta Hill is aiming high and animation is of utmost importance in the project. We need your creative input to make the visual novel truly shine.

• How to apply: send a PM to Helvetica Standard or Chocolatemilkgod with the reasons why you want to join, a portfolio if you have one, a list of the softwares you can use and your disponibility for the next few months.
  
• Skills needed: commitment to the project; understanding of software such as Toon Boom, After Effects, Photoshop, Premiere etc. (not all of these are needed, of course, but understanding of how a video editing and/or a composition software works is important)
  

If you haven't checked out our previous demo, please do so (and send us your feedback!). But know that it will all be reworked and we will release another demo with the changes soon enough, with improvements in all areas! Your favourite heroine deserves it, doesn't she? Be it Akane, Kanade or Rin, I'm sure you want to see more of them. And you want some more of Aoki's moody remarks, too, don't you? Well, this is what you'll have, but better.

Last but not least, the project's name is now Violeta Hill, as you may have noticed from the topic title, the new banner and whatnot. Why did we change it? It was such a shame for us to part with the old name. But don't worry if you don't understand - lights will guide you home and ignite your bones. We wanted to avoid confusion, that's all. And Latin languages are so much more charming, don't you think? That added a*makes it sound a lot better, isn't it?

That's all from us for now. Don't forget to apply for the open positions and keep loving Violeta Hill~

There you have it~

Thank you all for the great feedback so far

Greetings. Shall I introduce myself? I'm Palas, another musician in the team. I joined the team not too long ago, but I can say I'm really enthusiastic. Both I and Vokoca are working to give you guys a killer OST for Violet Hill. Vok has posted, but I so want to tease you guys a bit further - here is another piece from the OST, Wanderlust. It is the younger sister of another song in the OST, but you'll have to find out as soon as you play the demo. See if you can guess which one

Speaking of the demo, it's coming within the next few days. We're making our final adjustments! Out beta testers and quality checkers are working hard right now to make sure you get only th best. Stay hyped~!
