Re: Android Ren'Py!
Ah, finally! :) This is quite exciting and I'm willing to help in any way, so if you'll need to test things or get some info, feel free to call me. As far as I know, there are two most popular resolutions on android smartphones: 480x320 and 800x480. Both are big enough for art used in VN, but it's s...

Re: Survey results!!
Heheh, I'm quite amazed with some of the results. While this is propably not an accurate result, and it does not resemble the situation and needs in my country, it is still shows a bit of current situation. Yeah, thanks for sharing this with us, it may prove quite useful

Re: Were do I start?
http://www.insani.org for starters. If you're interested in good visual novels, I highly recommend to read such free classic titles as Narcissu, A Midsummer's Day Resonance and True Rememberance, although I don't remember any free visual novels containing mystery elements similiar to those of Jack ...

Re: The I-Brick Website
Right. Instead of damn Apple crusaders and their fanboys/fangirls, you should really get to android. It's basically what Linux is for PC, it came from linux, and it is a linux. So, it has to better :wink: You know, After I bought my LG GT540 I am really amazed, what can be done with it. Those phones...

Re: Downloadable Games are Important
Downloadables will endure! Honestly, now I'm a bit sad I got rid of few rare, legal VN installers from my HDD, as I already found out they are almost impossible to get. This makes us really think about the importance on having something "physically" available; stream of information, is wel...

Re: Post-6.11 Plans
This will be a major turnabout :) Just say a word and will help, and I bet there are many more folks out there, that would be happy to contribute personally to Ren'Py in one way or other. Seeing such things in the morning makes me happy. Regular maintenance could become something really useful, as i...

Re: Android RenPy?
[...]Then the Ren'Py code should run mostly unmodified. With the processing power increasing in newest smartphones, and your prowess I'll bet every Ren'Py game will work on them smoothly. If the HawX port can run 41-46 FPS on my LG GT540, there's no way Ren'Py games won't run, especially with imple...

Re: The Dating Sim / VN global survey!
Refering to the previous few posts - don't get me straight, but it feels you've got the wrong image. The japanese model won't work in our countries, so stop talking about it and stop complaining; furthermore even if the japanese games are comperatively more expensive to us, don't forget that most of...

Re: The Dating Sim / VN global survey!
Do you have further detail on a source for this information? I'm not saying you're wrong, but ten years ago I thought that "Most console RPG fans are elitists that wouldn't be caught playing a WRPG." I've since been proven wrong by the market. The real truth? There is only one thing in th...

Re: Voice Acting in VN games
As Topagae previously mentioned, there are novels that are partially voiced. This might include all the cast or not, but only certain scenes are voiced, or something around 1/2 or 2/3 of the whole game. if it's an adult game, it might include or exclude erotic scenes (but it usually does). One of th...

Re: Game Resolution
With new Ren'Py, it won't matter. The Open GL will be able to "scale" the graphics to the native resolution, if running fullscreen. AFAIK, it is called a virtual resolution. Still as a dev, you will have to make assets in some kind of a pre-difend resolution, and the larger - the crispier ...

Re: The Dating Sim / VN global survey!
You can't know if people who reply are male, female, which age, what job they have, what is their salary, and so on :) Plus being a niche thing (only people who KNOWS what VN/Dating Sim are will take it) it will be still quite targeted IMHO. Well... You could ask a few questions regarding people fi...

Re: The Dating Sim / VN global survey!
Filled up :) I'd like to point out that while most of questions are OK, you should change how the survey works - as for me, it looks fatal and the current choices regarding some of the questions don't make much sense with regard to them. Maybe instead of "I like", "I love!" etc. ...

Re: Voice Acting in VN games
In modern times, voice acting isn't an option available to a small group of developers; with steady progress of computing power you don't need tons of expensive equipement to produce voices for your game or animation, though it is unlikely you'll produce something of a good quality without any high-...
