Hi Prikarin, It’s fine! I get notifications for all comments, so, I managed to find the other quickly as well. Regarding night / dark versions, would you prefer the interiors to have colder colors and muted lights, but still look like they can be inhabited, or to have a totally dark / haunted look (and characters are only visiting)? I’m asking because, I have two possible versions in mind. Regarding snow storm from the windows, you mean, snow entering the cabin through the windows, right? Should the interior be covered with snow / ice, as well? If yes, it would be easier for me to make a new pack from scratch. But in this case - would you need day versions as well? Regarding image size, I suggest using an image resizer to make images smaller. You can use an online image resizer. I can also attach smaller versions to the download, it’s not a problem. Last but not least, I’ve just posted two more packs from the cabin series, one with a large cabin and one with a wooden guesthouse (attached below), perhaps, one of them will work better for your game. If you’d rather I made night/dark versions of those, let me know.

Have a great weekend! -Rachel

Hi Rachel, thank you so much for the quick reply! Regarding the night/dark versions, it'd be great if they had colder colors and muted lights but still looks like it's inhabited (do you think the wood's color could be a bit more of "dark chocolate brown"? Or would that entail making it from scratch?); basically it'll be the home of an ecology researcher (who studies the environment, plants & animals), and the MC will happen to visit them because their car was broken and they need somewhere to stay. As for the snow storm from the window, what I mean is more like a snowstorm showing on the window glass but still being outside, it wouldn't be entering the cabin so you wouldn't need to make a new pack from scratch hehe.

The large cabin in the woods you posted below looks really cool too and it'd certainly be nice to have night versions of some of the backgrounds there as well but I don't know if you accept double requests so I figured I'd stick to the request of the night/dark versions of the small cabin in the woods.

Let me know your thoughts 🌸

Thank you so much, have a great weekend as well!

Hi Prikarin, I see. Sure! I can make the wooden surfaces darker, it’s not a problem. I’ll also recolor the windows so that they have a more “winter” look. Regarding requests, I accept all if it’s only possible for me to make them, so don’t worry! Feel free to request more packs / recolors. I know that game developers often neeed more backgrounds or work on multiple projects. It’s ok! -Rachel

Thank you so much, Rachel! I'm doing this visual novel for the Winter VN Jam which is during the whole month of December. Do you think you'll have time to do the night versions of the interiors in both the small cabin and large cabin in the woods packs before the end of the year? If not I can always use a place holder and add the night versions once they are finished, it's no problem ^^ thank you!!

Hi Prikarin, Yes! I’ve already started working on them, I think that they’ll be ready by the end of this week. Recolors don’t take as much work as new packs. ^^ -Rachel
