Plot:
Prosecutor Manfred von Karma has decided to take on the great challenge of cleaning up the most corrupt judicial district in 1980. The courts are controlled by a gang that specializes in forgery, bribery, and strong-arming witnesses and which only seems to help defense attorneys. Von Karma is intent on keeping his perfect conviction record, while dealing with the incompetence of the police force and the people who are out to stop him.
Rookie Court: Von Karma, new to the district, prosecutes his first case there, with the really not valuable help of Nejira, a senior prosecutor. The odds are stacked against him, as he has virtually no evidence, and the police don't seem to know what happened at all. Fortunately, both the judge and the defense attorney are new, so they should be easy to push around...
Kangaroo Court: After hours at the local zoo, a security guard finds the zoo's manager holding a gun next to a dead body. Prosecutor von Karma is called away from his "vacation" with his older brother visiting from Germany to take the case. Although it seems simple at first, as zoo animals eat up the evidence and the witnesses become increasingly uncooperative, von Karma has to employ the expert forging skills of his colleague, Nejira, in order to make his case against a defense attorney intent on keeping her perfect win record!
Jedi Court: A murder occurs at a sci-fi convention. Nejira originally takes the case, but calls in Manfred when she finds out that his old foe Esmeralda is the defense attorney, having been a convention attendee herself.
Case 4: Details to be released. The some of the events of this case will depend on the player's actions in the earlier cases, not just in what evidence the player presents/forges, but also in exchanges with other characters while in investigation, etc.
Spoiler: Character Descriptions
Spoiler: Scribbly/sketchy original character art
Status:
Case 1 programming and dialogue nearly complete in Ace Attorney Online. Will be re-programmed in a casemaker (probably LuAA, though that's subject to change) following a revamp.
Script: Case 1 nearly complete in initial form, but will probably be re-written to be cleaner and more tutorial-like. Other cases are only in basic outline form.
Sprites: Basic sprites for major characters complete; more poses needed & several need improvement. No minor/secondary characters have sprites yet.
Art/Backgrounds: None made yet, save for some concept sketches (below).

One question though: Why a homicide detective in a robbery case?

The robbery case can have a murder too to fix it up that issue.

Because it was late and I was senile.
Gant's not a homicide detective yet, he gets promoted after the case.

That would be cool! Although, perhaps, difficult? I am not a particularly skilled programmer, so I wouldn't know. Maybe not in the first release or something. I'm not sure how that'd work on the computer, but I'm ultimately hoping to get this into a form that I could load onto a DS storage card anyways.

i'll make a command like "painttexturepoint" (it paints a color on a point of the texture) that runs on a click command. I'll make a base so it will be just "use", it will be a breeze to use.
For some more "hard", inside code:
Code:
//Init
loadtexture(4000,"any texture");
processtexture(4000,0,"removealldata");
//Preprocess (creating a new evidence)
processtexture(4000,0,"removealldata");
//the click
[evidencecreateclick]
//get mouse x,y
//check for limits and define final points (just a bunch of ifs)
//paint point with a white color, the one the mouse is over
painttexturepoint([x],[y],4000,255,255,255,255);
loadtexture(4000,"any texture");
processtexture(4000,0,"removealldata");
//Preprocess (creating a new evidence)
processtexture(4000,0,"removealldata");
//the click
[evidencecreateclick]
//get mouse x,y
//check for limits and define final points (just a bunch of ifs)
//paint point with a white color, the one the mouse is over
painttexturepoint([x],[y],4000,255,255,255,255);
It will have an easy 1/2 commands interface for easy use, so don't worry.

Haha I am definitely planning that for the follow-up game (whenever I get through this one...) though I thought that might be a kind of depressing ending.
But that's an awesome setup right there :DI hadn't even though of Grossberg's "Objection" voice! And VK himself probably sounded pretty different ~35 years ago, too. And he needs a "Hold It" and a "Take That!" I might need to get some recordings.

Of course, you realize that any penalties at all would make the game non-canon? That'll be pretty difficult to work around...

When you say "DL-6" do you mean the trial that occurred on that day, or the trial of Yanni Yogi? It would probably be the former, as VK was on vacation for a long time afterwards. It would be pretty interesting to have the chief prosecutor stand next to you and penalize you herself. (I'm pretty sure it couldn't have been Lana, but from the blip noise, I could tell it was a woman)

Chief Prosecutor's actually a man. Maybe it was Payne, with his high voice.
Ripped from script:Karma: Mr. Chief Prosecutor... I am sorry.
Also, his health bar will be the judge's opinion of his case. It won't be how many penalties he's gotten. Otherwise, no, it wouldn't make sense.
And I understood ZZ to mean the case that brought about DL-6 (where VK was penalized). Yanni Yogi went free, anyways, so you know VK had nothing to do with that one.

No way am I doing a voice clip! But just out of interest, why does Von Karma need a take that or hold it? I thought he was a prosecutor.

I guess I misinterpreted your question of "what part do I get" as "who can I voice".
And VK needs Hold It/Take That because he's going to cross-examine witnesses.

Kristoph: If your witness is not present, Mr. Edgeworth, I'd like to call one of my own. Witness, take the stand!
Witness: (gives statement)
Judge: Very well. Mr. Gavin, your cross-examination?
Kristoph: I'm not sure that's necessary, your honor. I see no room for error in his statements.
Edgeworth: OBJECTION! Your honor, if the defense will not cross-examine, then I have a few questions for him.
Judge: Well, I suppose that would make sense, seeing as it is Mr. Gavin's witness.
Sure, it breaks game mechanics a little bit, but the game mechanics themselves break a standard court system. (obviously, in a real court, both sides question the witness)

The reason there are no pics for Gant and Manfred is because I'm unhappy with how my images for them look currently, so I'm not going to put them up until they're at least decent. I have an ok Gant and a failed VK, but they're probably not close to their final version. I don't like what Esmerelda's wearing, either, but I'm not sure what to change it to, so for now, that's what she's got. Also, something about Nejira's eyes is bugging me, but I'm not sure what that is, either. Meh.
I'd love any feedback, just based on how the game sounds right now.
Also, I'm taking last name suggestions for Esmerelda and Lulu right now, because I don't really have any attachment to the ones that are there and don't particularly like them. Especially Essie's.
And, of course, any other suggestions are welcomed.
ETA: I just remembered, I'd also take suggestions for the name of the evil gang people. :P Right now, their working name is "W." There's no real reason, so I'm still looking for a name that makes more sense ^^ The reason I picked W is because I had an idea that anyone who's in the gang would have a badge with a W on it, and it'd look kinda cool with W

Your image didn't show up, but based on your comments, I'm guessing it's Nejira. She looks crosseyed :X I decided to let it be, because I didn't know exactly what the problem was and all my attempts to rectify it met with failure. But I hadn't thought about the mouth being a problem before. I could mess with that and see if it helps.
(actually, I now notice when quoting that it's Lulu. She still needs editing, anyways. Her eyes are supposed to be a little more like Regina's than Iris's, and I changed her nose in the most recent version of her.)
The gang ("W") is a group of people who forge evidence, bribe judges, and threaten witnesses to rig the courts in favor of the defendants. They're the main antagonists of this game (it's like AJ and PW:T+T where there's an overarching plot). They're mentioned in every case, but are central to cases 2 and 4.
Edit: Oh, I missed the question about completion.
Here's the problem: there are 2 levels of "done." One means I can release a functional version that is simply playable. Then there is TRULY done, when all the characters have all of their poses and look like themselves etc.
As it stands, I have no programming (waiting for PWLib), so I'm obviously not far there. Script for case 1 is about 40%, maybe? And sprites are mostly existant but 1) not optimal and 2) without enough poses. I haven't made the defendant yet, but that's because he's not all that important/I don't care how he looks :P. I have a very vague idea of what happened in most of the other cases (though I keep letting my ideas become stupid and creepy while I mull them over), and know who a good number of the involved characters are.
Buuut, since there are 4 cases and I'm not even done with one of them, I'd guess I'm at 3-4%. WOO!

um anyways
I like the last two you came up with, those are clever
I also kind of like Whym/Wym. Especially 'cause there are a lot of women in the group. XD
It would also be kind of like them to just have a name that has no point except to be artistic-ish. Like just naming themselves "Winter" for absolutely no good reason. Also ironic 'cause this game spans March-October (no winter cases
)Thanks so much!

Basically, I'm totally sick of spriting. I hadn't meant to actually get into spriting myself in the first place, but I did. Anyways, I'm pretty much just waiting on programming, now. At this point, though, I've more or less lost interest in this project. This could change if I start programming and have a great time, but right now, I'm kind of meh. I'm not sure if I'm going to put it on hiatus, cancel entirely, or hand off to someone else. I don't even want to *touch* any sprites, so I can promise you that it's not going to look great if I do choose to do something. I'm even debating turning it into a text-based adventure
(not really, but that's kind of the mood I'm in). Case 1 may or may not come out. If I bother to go through with case 1, there's actually a decent chance of me doing case 2, but the chance of me doing case 1 at this point is something like 40%. We'll see. Anyways, I'm off to my first year of law school mid-August, and everyone says that's brutal, so if I don't finish anything over the summer, it's sure as heck not happening over the next year.
Just to let anyone who might be following this project know.

However there is a bit of the problem with your time line, about Edgeworth's age and Franziska. Franziska is about six years younger than Edgeworth. I assume that when he was taking classes, he was about 10 years old. During that time, Franziska would be about four years old. Meaning I'm pretty sure Manfred would have to at least marry Lulu just for Franziska to be born.
Unless he acquired Franziska through other means.... Shouldn't Lulu's hair to be blue by the way? Or is younger Manfred's hair blue?

Hey, I've been checking this game out. This actually looks like a few fangames that I'm more than willing to play.
However there is a bit of the problem with your time line, about Edgeworth's age and Franziska. Franziska is about six years younger than Edgeworth.

Hey, thanks for the interest, SJB! So about your timeline/Franziska concerns, I've worked out the timeline pretty clearly. This is what I've got:
Dec. 12th, 1951: MvK born. (this is why he is 28 in 1980 - born in Dec)
1980: Manfred comes to LA and starts prosecuting. (Age: 28) This is when all of the cases in VKCA take place.
1982: Gets married
1983: First child born (only son)
1984: Second child born (this is the older sister mentioned in 1-4; this makes her 32 in AA1, while the daughter is 7)
1992: Edgeworth born
1999: Franziska born (MvK Age:48)
2001: DL-6
2008: Older daughter marries (MvK Age: 57, Daughter 1: 24, Edgey: 14, Franzie: 9)
I think that's right, anyways. :S
And re: the blue hair, it's a recessive gene :P Manfred's hair is black (both of the other kids have black hair, too).
(heh, even just writing the timeline re-inspires me to work on this ^^ maybe I will consider it when PWLib comes out...BUT NO MORE SPRITES *shudders*)

Winfred, Little Plum, and Bruto would ALL be in Case 2 of Game 2, if I ever made it there. It's about the Mafia. :P
I was thinking about bringing Winston to Case 3. He seems like he could be a sci-fi nerd. Originally, Sal Manella was going to be there, but then I realized that he was too young (in other words, not born). Lame, 'cause it would have been hilarious.
I didn't like Kudo in T+T, so I'm loath to bring him back, but I appreciate the suggestion anyways
