Timed Dialogue - autoread
Hey guys! How do you feel about autoread or just written text that's set to move on to next line and disappear after a certain time, with no input from the player? There's the option to autoread in many VNs, does anyone actually use it? I'm making a game and I'm wondering if it's a useful feature or...

Re: Context-free Delight
These things are fun but they aren't free from their context. For example, "feel good violence" when a bad guy suffers is fun to watch, but only because we have context from our own values and beliefs. Like, a thief gets punched by a stranger, okay, that's fine. If I understand the situati...

Re: Leave Room for Doubt
I think it's okay to let players miss jokes and other content unique to that one branch that you didn't choose. For me choices should only be used when they mean something. When I as a player have to think to pick my option. Because I'm aware that it will change a lot. Or if it's a customization opt...

Re: How do your diseases/disabilities affect your hobby/work
Well I feel a bit better after reading your experiences. I can empathize with these challenges. I always avoided going to the doctor, mostly because I was afraid of what she'd say. But then I learned my GP is really apathetic and diagnosed me with depression and anxiety only after I tried to off mys...

Re: Visual novels vs other mediums
Fun middle ground between games and books! That's how I sell them to my friends. And I always explain that you have these normal picture books, and the ones where you choose what happens and the ones with some puzzles in them. People see this as a strange toy but I think that's the clearest distinct...

Re: Together At The End [Drama] [Rework]
Okay I played through! I'll be honest, like you wanted. It feels like a first draft. It needs a lot of editing. I'd try to cut down on the text. You don't have to write everything, the audience can deduct and fill the missing elements themselves. For writing I'll say that you should stay away from p...

That's so awesome! Thank you! *(^_^)*
And in amazing news, my little visual novel is frontpaged on Newgrounds! Weird. Apparently people like that kind of games there...
It's a dream come true, what's happening with this game!

Re: Hug me I'm cold [Short][Romance][Weird]
Oh my... Thank you so much everyone!
I'm super happy it all makes sense and works out somehow in the end *(^_^)*
Still, I always leave the room when any of my friends want to play it, it's so embarrassing!

Re: On Moving On?
Ha I know this one. And I deleted everything and destroyed anything physical. That's not a good decision. I just erased whatever interesting ideas I got in the span of a couple of years. Much better to just keep it in a folder called IDEAS, and then one day you can add an idea, merge others and BAM ...

Re: Hug me I'm cold [Short][Romance][Weird]
Haha yeah the awkwardness I learnt first hand... Thank you for the kind words! Maybe I am a bit too hard on myself. Yes, the shift in the mood was planned on the first day! I'm not sure if that's good or not, but I thought that's the way it should be -_-; Thanks a lot, I think I needed that. You too...

http://i.imgur.com/kRUZklw.gif Hey everyone and happy new year! I made a little conversation game celebrating New Year's! It's a short game, few choices, about you opening up to your date at the end of the world. You saw the girl of your dreams on a dating app. You've agreed to watch the fireworks ...

Re: A Foretold Affair [Steampunk-Fantasy Adven][?xG/B/X]Demo
Hey I love it!
It looks incredible, congratulations on that part!
Quite an interesting story and it looks like I'm not alone in my opinion - the best character is Buffalo Seer
Good job on getting greenlit!

Re: The Worlds of Haruhi Suzumiya Project - My Plot Outline
This all sounds really interesting and I'd be interested in reading it! Especially since I'm a Haruhi fan myself. Still, as a creative, I think the setting of Haruhi is so simple you can very easily condense it and lose nothing except for "fan-fiction" label. There's barely any world-build...
