Phew, ok I'm finally ready to share the thing I've been working on. I suck at making videos but here is a demonstration trailer of my character creator I set up for the game, which I'm now calling 2-Headed Boy, and finally has a title screen (and I think I need to thicken the line on the "2" in the logo...). Now the player can have more customization options for their MC.
First pick your name, then some pronouns, then your appearance. Look masculine, feminine, some kind of mixture or androgynous, pretty much up to you. Choose your skin tone, eye color/style, eyebrow style/color, hairstyle/color(s) (or be bald), ears (or be earless), clothes and accessories (or run around in your underwear, idc). Tails and wings are optional.
The clothes are a mess right now, I need to go back and re-align all the portrait busts so I don't have to have a bunch of repositioned versions of the same outfit for different busts. And I need more outfits, these are default clothing/accessory assets I just redrew for my sprites.
Also I plan to add color shifters in for the ears and tails, and also put in human ears and maybe elf ears??
I know the neck category is super weird, the neck and head were a solid piece when I started, but I couldn't get the hair to layer properly with the faces so I had to sever the head from the neck.
If you have any requests/suggestions about outfits, accessories, ears, tails etc. lmk in my asks or comments! I will do my best to implement them...later. I need a break from working on the generator to focus on other parts of the game :)
If anyone remembers me posting a few days ago that I have a major update on my yandere boyfriend RPG "2-Headed Boy" coming, I'm just here to say I am hoping to have enough of it finished to show some footage by tomorrow!
Good feeling,
Won't you stay with me,
Just a little longer?
It always seems like you're leaving,
When I know the other one,
Just a little too well...
Atp chronos, nik, jamie, whatever the fck, we are getting married I AM MARRYING YOU GRANT
Omg, I was just thinking about this—since Nik’s place is so nice, does he have a library? And if not, what if the MC wanted one of those luxurious indoor libraries? Like the really fancy ones, you know? Puppy eyes
Also, does Nik even like reading, or is he more of the “books are boring” type?
He does not have a library but he does a decent book collection. (If MC adored books he’d def do a Beast from Beauty and the Beast and get the Mc a library.)
No, Nik ADORES reading.
AAAHGGGH OMIGOSH OMIGOSH, okay so HIII HEHE book reader here! I’ve read my fair share of books and I can’t help it but really feel the vibes of Nikolaos from my fave book characters! 🩷🩷🩷
If I had to assign two, I would assign:
Aaron Warner (From Shatter Me) - He is this blond, green eyed man. In the first book, you get this mixed vibe of him but will be likeable (Just have to trust the process LOL) also really delusional and loves and I MEAN LOVES the FMC so much, willing to do anything for her to keep her safe. Standards. Slightly obsessive, not gonna lie.
Maxon Schreave (From The Selection) - Now, him. He is the closest, by far the closest to Nikolaos, his humor and love for the FMC is absolutely phenomenal! (He’s blond as well HAHA but with brown eyes this time) He’s the prince of their kingdom and has this gentlemanly charm for everyone but, deep inside also hurting. AGH. And, strives to make a change for the kingdom despite his fathers orders.
Both books are Dystopian and are written by amazing authors, I wish to add Wes but I’d have to wait. 😂 (I tried not to spoil them too much, hope this helps!) ☺️💕
Hellooo! I can’t help be curious (as a reader 🙆🏻♀️💕) if you were to assign Nik and Wes as any book characters you know or has the same vibes with who would it be? 💕🩷💕🩷🩷💕
I’m gonna be so real I don’t read books very often at all 😭 (I should really change that) if anyone has some suggestions feel free to list them 🥺
Some oc info dumping and aesthetic board for nik / can’t draw this month due to cramming purposes but the nik will is getting stronger
Omg not liking music as much as him is a turn off??
does not knowing how to sing or play instrument = turn off? AND is this a hint as to why he fell for oracle?? OMG THANK U FOR THE FOOD 💓💓💓
Yes, canonically the MC can sing well or play an instrument and have an affinity/love for music so if they didn’t have that Nik wouldn’t be interested.
Maybe - no worries 🙏
I'm SO sorry if this has been answered already, but what's Niks favourite colour? Is there one he prefers to see on Oracle (whether that be the colour of your undergarments or not is up to you pookay 😘)?
It’s blue 💙 though purple is a close second since it’s what Oracle’s suit is. Though that may not be Oracle’s.
Lmfaoooo 🤣
Would nik still love me if I was a worm😔🪱
Yes. He’d bulldoze the city leaving only the best soil for you to live 🪱
ZOOO WEEE MAMA HELLOOOOOOOO SAILLOOORRRR BUDDY PAL HOT STUFF HANDSOME YOU SMEXY EVIL THING, THIS IS AMAZING!!!!_!_!!_??!!!!!
To my dear Oracle,
- Chronos

Look look i just noticed one of his hobbies omg??
HE CAN PLAY POOLS TOO?!??! IS HE GOOD AT IT OR DOES HE ENJOY IT??? MAH GUYYY
He can! He enjoys a good old bar game/board game. He's good at everything he does regularly. His self esteem can't take being bad at something, especially in front of others.

Just playef this game, gonna kiss both his eyes one fot the blue side the other brown
Nikolaos was intended to have either blue or brown eyes, but I found it fun (and a little funny) to just give him one of each. And now he always looks like this meme to me
