\"shark\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So we’re doing it! I’ve finished the outline and started a sprite for this thing. As always, because my mind loves to over complicate everything, this game will feature real sharks and metaphorical ones legasp! Will be using Ren’Py and yup. Now to sleep and get back up to write-edit-draw-cry-collect-program not in that order of course ^^<\/p>\n

Title:<\/em><\/strong> FINS<\/p>\n

Synopsis:<\/em><\/strong> It\u2019s 2046 in an average coastal town, and Anna-Marie thought she’d be spending her break partying it up in warmer waters. But, instead, she finds herself in a den full of cold-blooded lunatics. Because of one, minor, slip up involving letting her best friend alter a grade, resulting in her owing him big<\/em> time for it… Anna-Marie has to dig up some dirt on the local big bad business in town if she doesn’t want her professor blowing a gasket. The only problem is that snooping around in a major corporations graveyard is never a good idea, and when she stumbles upon some very big and very, very illegal information, Anna needs to think fast unless she wants to end up sleeping with the fishes!<\/p>\n

Characters:<\/em><\/strong>
\n \"Annamarie<\/a>
\n Anna-Marie Gutierrez:<\/em><\/strong> A young freshman in college overwhelmed, under-employed and suffering from a severe case of apathy. Due to an \u2018incident\u2019 involving her best friend fudging a grade for her, she has to uncover dirt on Tributary Inc. and finds herself way over her head.
\n Logan Cho:<\/em><\/strong> The resident all-around activist and genius in the making, he’s passionate about uncovering all the dirty deets on Tributary Inc. and publishing them up anywhere and everywhere he can.
\n Experiment F-2V or Fien:<\/em><\/strong> A highly, highly illegal Splice<\/em> Anna-Marie encounters while uncovering the Inc.\u2019s secrets. Splice being a slang term for humans genetically crossed with another species. In his case, you guessed it, a shark.
\n Big White:<\/em><\/strong> A local loan shark and small town gangster, that is working in step with Tributary Inc. to cover up what they don’t want to be known to the public. Is harassing the Gutierrez family over past due loan payments.
