Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 23/08/2026With both visual representation and dialogue writing, a major goal has been depicting the characters unique personalities and presentation in ways which feel distinctly them! #yttd #キミガシネ 020
Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 11/08/2026(9/9) We'll be sharing more updates and information about the project over the course of the coming months as we lead up to a demo release of the first 6 scenes of Chapter 1! 020
Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 11/08/2026(8/9) We got kinda carried away with backgrounds. A lot of time has gone into refining our process for making the games pixel art backgrounds as well as making a large number of the hand painted textures used in the games CGs. 120
Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 11/08/2026(7/9) The core engine is complete, though there is still some work left to do around programming and bug testing mini games. 120
Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 11/08/2026(6/9) Some of the music files for Ch1's songs were corrupted by a Garageband update, but we eventually figured out a way to read the project files and reconstruct them in LogicPro! 120
Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 11/08/2026(5/9) Much of the writing for Chapter 1 is now complete, character sprite variants and background sprites for the first chapter only needing a little more polish, and CGs have been sketched out thoroughly! 120
Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 11/08/2026(4/9) In art we see our own experiences reflected, helping us to heal and move forward even when the future seems uncertain. We hope this story can be one which resonates with you as well. 120

Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 11/08/2026(2/9) it's very easy to keep adding to and refining it: more character sprite variants, animations, backgrounds, CGs, music, mechanics, and care put into polishing each line of dialogue. Lots of time can pass in that process! 121
Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 11/08/2026(1/9) #yttd #キミガシネ In game development, things taking longer isn't always an indication of something bad. In our case, it's largely been a result of wanting to make everything as good as it can possibly be! When you love a project, 164
Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 17/02/2026Your Turn To Thrive has over 400 hand painted texture layers which are overlayed together & filtered to make the abstract backgrounds unique to each CG!

Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 24/09/2025Those buttons in the upper right corner are for the save screen, inventory, and 👁️ Perception mechanic.

Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 24/09/2025For Nao's birthday, we wanted to show some of what the UI, backgrounds, and character sprites will look like during gameplay! #yttd #キミガシネ 142

Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 10/01/2025Our goal with YTTT's backgrounds is a pixel art look similar to Your Turn To Die but with the ability to display even small objects in enough detail for our environmental point and click elements similar to AI The Somnium Files!! #YTTT #YTTD #visualnovel #vndev #gamedev #indiedev 0144
Your Turn To Thrive @yttt.org · 15/11/2024Nao and Sara are both incredibly powerful characters each with unique strengths and we want that to be reflected in this story, because even in tragedy, life still goes on.
