I had a thought:
>Each route features EXALD being upgraded with tech from the featured heroine's prototype mech.
>The final "harem" route has Perfect EXALD, which combines all the tech advancements into one unit.
>Daibarion is meant to have an incredible power source, but a frame that can't keep up, meaning it tears itself apart whenever it uses its weapons.

What if Daibarion's issue is that it builds up too many Plot Particles with no way of venting them... and one of the other mech prototypes has a propulsion system based on venting Plot Particles?
Then P-EX could use Daibarion's power source, but with vents all over its frame, making it almost as powerful as Daibarion but also super-fast? It would also be an easy way to distinguish P-EX's design from the original model, since you can make it look a lot like the EXALD then cover it in energy wings.
>>
>>13912920
Right because most of the battles are in the vacuum of space, which prevents all convection.

If heat is being generated at a faster rate than it is dissipated, it will surely overheat until inoperable. Usually the only means to vent is with even more radiation.

It could work, the visible particle exchange rates make up for the usage. It seems like the V2 and Destiny's Wings of Light (Voiture Lumiere is more for propulsion). I suppose it would be the "End all" unit.

>games that force harem route as the true ending
Pretty sad that monogamy is a dying ideal desu

That being said the idea itself is solid. I'd rather it be a plot particle or something rather than pure heat. I feel like there would be too many workarounds for heat transfer but with a plot particle you can just say "it needs Plotonium to vent the plot particles correctly" and the reader just has to go "well, can't argue with that".

As much as I like the idea, I wouldn't fund until I see significant progress posted on here, especially the story. Money may be able to make visuals and music look better can't fix a bad production team. But there's a big difference between >they do it for free and a kickstarter-funded project. Whether the team wants to keep it unfunded or not is their choice.

The idea being the idea of a mecha visual novel, not the idea of it being funded like that. I want to be clear about that.

I'd say /m/ is the least progressive place to be. If it wasn't for our very underrated yet determined artist and writer there wouldn't be much of anything to show.

Aside from the samples that we allow to leak out there isn't even much motivation for anyone new to try their hand at submissions or concepts. This has been ongoing since last year. No one even wants to get their hands dirty without a lump sum or fees.

The love for mecha will only get us so far. This project is a very huge task and I can't see it meeting goals if not treated and managed like a paying job.

Personally I just want to nail the mecha feels parody without taking itself too serious and give the player a sense of real choices and decision logic. Pretty backgrounds, complementary music and themes, with an interesting GUI for the Comm relays and dialogue via military channels. Who doesn't want to text with Izumi?.

We have discussed and almost want a website instead so we can actually publish or at least not have to worry about misinformation, miscommunication or missed opportunities to show more interest. And perhaps contain shit post.

And thank you based anon for drawing grunts. We like grunts too. Pic related

As for soundtrack a generous anon made us these but mentioned he didn't actually own the software to create said soundtracks. Likely to use the first for the interior theme.

Now is the best time to hammer our designs as we need it to remain interesting. Often its the smaller details that make the artwork stand out.

We have a very solid idea for the Earth models and production line but a larger challenge was closing the gap for the Jupiter and Deep Orbit mecha. We have annals of power armor and the design philosophy was favored to be more utilitarian.

Initially the design was to keep the mono-eye units but with a central rotating optic. The Graze now reminds me of the ideas we had but now I would like to see redesigns and lose the Nazi-themed enemies in favor for something more practical.

Astell - Corporation exclusive test design. Prototype is one of several to feature Nereid technology. State of the art in maneuverability and top acceleration. The spine frame support is built to mimic vertebrae, extremely durable with lighter chassis. Variants feature moderate firepower however custom units are standard with additional armaments. First prototype assigned to Jin Ortiz.


Jin Ortiz- seeking thrills and enjoyment for risking his life. Jin suffers a desire to push a machine beyond its safety limiters. To squeeze every last bit of juice out of the engine thrusters. However, he's a bit of a coward once he's dead in the water. Where he can't use his speed freely or to escape his vulnerability. Wouldn't admit it even if you saved his ass.

Gotta agree with the other anons. I know a lot of these were donated kindly by anons but some are too Gundam-y. Vigilante is literally Gump, Elegia (especially Elegia) and Erlidia are pretty obvious too.

Are the Jupiter mechs mostly custom/midbosses? They don't fit with any single design scheme. Judge (which looks a bit too Naziboo to me) and Padadis are pretty humanoi; Lilah, Hagel, Lloyd and to an extent Immunis are all bulky and thick and less maneuverable; Starchan is her own thing; Y and NZK are odd in a good way. If most of the middle ones are one-offs then I understand, but I hope they aren't production mechs.

That image is also very outdated, when the Official Thread starts there will be a new roster.


I'm starting to wonder what Gundam even means now.

Is it the shapes and pose? using white colors? Mecha with eye cameras? Because I always assumed it the was clown colors and v-fins that made Gundam unique.

These of course are the starter designs as I would like to see tweaks to always give feelings that you can depend on your space purposed giant humanoid machine. Armored Core and Thunderbolt influences come to mind

Also the roster doesn't depict what the units will actually do or if they'll make an appearance. I believe the original vision was to have massive forces of grunts in combat GALMs vs the Jupiter en masse. The special units being more of a spin off if you obtain upgrades or parts.

Hmmm, i'm not fully sure about what role it will have in the final product, but I think that it would be in darker, drab colour scheme.

I fucking love the first and third one, the first one reminds me of the Arbalest from FMP, and the third of the Flags from G00

Thanks, I'm not fond of the shade of blue on the first one, I think I'll make it more desaturated. I like the look of that Hagel-Heavy, although I feel the arms and shoulders don't at all fit. Perhaps don't give them arms at all and have more oversized weapons bolted right onto the sockets. Add folding legs to the back of the thighs for stability, so it has more of a mobile weapons platform aesthetic.

Legs are incredibly huge and disproportional. It looks like a freaky horse monster. The core does not match with the rest of the design. The wang between the legs is hideous. I don't know where you're going with those arms but I don't like it. Shoulders could be better.

What I do like is the head, torso, and knee protrusions (if done much smaller).

Thanks for the advice, I must admit looking at it overall I only like the head and the kneecaps of the Hagel... I'll probably completely rework the rest. Though I don't lie the idea of the arms being completely weapons only, I have an idea for it that may fit both bills. I'm starting to think I should be going at this more like a quad-legged armored core style suit, though i'm not too sure how to make it fit with the rest of the Jupiter aesthetic

By the way, if you want to make any specific requests for colour changes on the few above, by all means ask. It's a 5 minute job.
