Gonna share some news that I hope isn’t too saddening, but Desaturate is gonna be put on the back burner for a long while (both versions). It is still going to happen, I will make sure of it, it’s just gonna take a long time (and a lot of time) to develop and I want to work on other projects as well. This doesn’t mean this topic will be dead tho, as I can’t fully bring myself to stop thinking about it cause I just have a lot of passion for this project. so, I’ll try to regularly add a devlog for how I want the game’s gameplay, roster, and lore especially.
Sorry for the wall of text but in short: DeSatuate is going on the back burner for a while but, I’ll be more open on my ideas for it as a result. Again, I am sorry about this, it’s the classic: “Having a really good game idea, but not as good game dev skills” problem.

Lore drop
(Just for 3/4 of the killers)
Blitz
A well-renowned agent for Organization V. He was known for his great stealth, quick escapes and combat prowess. As he got popular, he started having a bit too much fun with his job, to the point of endangering the mission and himself. He was on the verge of being fired from V and he had one mission left to redeem himself, assassinating a supplier for a rival Organization. However, Blitz made a fatal mistake on this mission, successfully killing the target but being gravely wounded by the target’s son, Snare. During his last moments, he did not acknowledge his mistake, instead grew maniacally obsessed with redeeming his honor. His pride caused him his own downfall, and thus he was consumed by it.
(just added some stuff to the original by @Bilangus)
Shine
Shine was content with just being a sidekick for his brother for a long while, but as he grew so did his inferiority. He thought he wasn’t as popular as his brother, wasn’t as strong. So he went searching for something that could make him stronger. In his search he found a cult that promised him what he was looking for, a way to a hero all on his own. And so, he followed them, he listened to them, he did what they told him to do, and he sacrificed himself by their will, but was reborn. The form Shine takes now is no longer weak and can no longer be overlooked like he was before, but he is still as naive as the child he was. Ignoring the pain he feels, ignoring his brother’s cries for him, and ignoring the carnage he causes. Ignorance is bliss, after all.
(Let me know what you think of this @Reflectfr)
Void
A grave-robber that ran rampant in the 18th-century. He in fact started the grave robbing craze in the beginning. But, unlike the copycats that he predates, he did more than just thievery. The cities of London were decorated with the desecrated bodies he unearthed every night. Loved ones forced to stare at the corpses they buried, all while he stared in enjoyment. Sadly, one faithful night he was caught, cornered by law enforcement on top of a building, with the only way out being down. And as he fell, he did feel fear, as he knew his actions had caught the eye of a higher being. He was rewarded for his efforts by becoming The Sin of Ruin, causing chaos wherever he drifts by.

Well if you liked the expansion, I would hope you are happy to hear about this:
Snare vs. Blitz
Both players will have their abilities replaced with 2 new ones: Shoot and Reload. Shoot fires a projectile In front of the player, costing a charge from the ability, while reload adds a charge to shoot. The objective for both sides is to kill the other.
“Why does HE get a gun?! I’m the gun guy, this is so unfair.” -Blitz most likely
A Special Punishment (LMS) between Snare & Blitz. I had this in my back pocket for a while.

For The Player & Snare
The Player
The manifestation, or embodiment, of the joy, knowledge, and skill of every person to have ever played a game. Despite this technically meaning they have an endless amount of knowledge, The Player would rather just use their knowledge to play video games. The Player is lazy, fun-loving, and apathetic most of the time, but also has a small part of them that wants to help everyone they can, even if they can’t. The Player is actually the only saint here of their own accord as they hope they can find a way to free the others. Their nobleness is inspiring.. But it’s only a matter of time before they get bored of this “game”, and leave their fellow saints here left to rot.
Snare
A coward, but a brilliant one. Snare has always been afraid of the world despite how much he knew about it, it was actually the more he knew that made him afraid. His father was always there to protect him, showing him how to be brave and how to use his smarts for good. Starting from a young age, Snare helped his father in his workshop, building all kinds of weird, and deadly, contraptions. While he knew he was helping his father make weapons, he didn’t protest. He knew his father had reasons, after all he was the kindest man he knew… too kind. One faithful day Snare’s father told him to go home earlier than usual. Snare knew something was afoot, especially when he saw an agent walk into the workshop while it was still closed. Snare ran as fast as he could, but was too late. His father was dead. The killer stood over him, laughing and praising himself, “Another stupid target dead, HA I’ll finally get my job back!”. The only thing he could do now, was to take vengeance. Snare took what was closest to him, not thinking just acting, and struck the manic down. Even with this victory, Snare only thought one thing about himself, “I’m sorry dad, I’m sorry I’m such a coward.”

I can’t think of any funny April fools pranks so instead have these:
Lore drop (+ moveset concepts for future characters)
Azalea
A paranormal investigator, a part of a duo with her partner, [REDACTED]. The two would venture far and wide, looking for cryptids, ghosts, and anything strange. They were inseparable.. They were. Azalea refuses to tell anyone what happened to [REDACTED], but everyone knows they’re no longer here. Azalea, however, tries every day to “find” them. No one knows what they mean whenever they mutter about it, but one thing is for certain, he found a way into the games, and doesn’t plan on leaving. She knows [REDACTED] is here, and he will stop at nothing until they find them. “No matter what, I’ll find you.”
Malvich
A demon with the highest sense of justice, kindness, but most importantly, vengeance. In the demon world you can only grow in power through two ways: killing other demons or by making deals. And even though she didn’t want to, she was forced to choose the former, for she was tricked by her own friend, Zal, and sold into an arena. She spent years growing, becoming stronger, and stewing in her hatred for her former friend. And one day, she escaped, and she massacred her way out of hell, knowing exactly where to go, where to find HIM. But now, she’s stuck here, still refusing to say how she got here. One thing is for certain though, her kindness towards others hasn’t wavered, and she will protect the rest of the saints any way she can.
