Operation Magic Hero [NaNo2012] (Update: 3/23/2012)

#1 Post by Kokoro Hane »

01/22/2022: This project has been revived, and has a brand new thread! It will now have all original character art!

I had almost forgotten that it was NaNoRenO! So I just started this project today, and am confident that I should get it done before the month is up (despite my late start). This is my first time doing this guys, so bear with me! The plot's a bit on the cheesy side, but I hope you'll enjoy playing it none the less. The project has a full cast to voice the dialogue!

Currently
I already have 2 endings. The game will be much longer than this, but depending on how you play, you might end the story early, so a couple of endings are already established. The goal is to have 6 endings, 1 which is bad, and 1 that is true.

Lint Statistics say;
The game contains 657 screens of dialogue.
These screens contain a total of 6,298 words,
for an average of 9.6 words per screen.
The game contains 5 menus.
SUMMARY
Chiharu is a girl who wishes she wasn't so ordinary. Sure, she's known to be rather crazy at times, but in her mind she just feels so....plain, nothing special about her. Especially in looks. She really hates the way she looks. All she wants to be is, well, somebody, and it looks like she might get the chance! Accidently stumbling upon an organization called Operation Magic Hero, she is given the gift to transform into Yuki, a dazzling magical girl who helps fight evil at night!

I shall do my best! ^.^ I even plan to have the dialogue with voices! However. I am not sure if that part will be done by March, so if not, then I'll re-release a version 2 with voices. But my main goal is to get the VN done before March, with or without voices!

There have been a few western VNs with magical girl themes. I'm looking forward to seeing more get made.

It sounds like there will be at least two magical girls in the story, and at least one guy. If you're trying to write this between now and April 1, then you'll want to make sure your scope doesn't get out of hand. Focus on just a few characters, keep the story relatively short and simple, and don't worry about gameplay.

I'm curious about the Operation Magic Hero organization. Why would they recruit a girl who becomes aware of them? Is the organization fighting anything or anyone? Are Keiji and/or Arisa already part of the group? If not, do they join it?

Actually, there will be SEVERAL magic girls (and boys) in this story (I think I have 10 of them?) but some will be more focused than others (I should show you the thread I have at VAA). I'm thinking of just leaving this as a Kinetic novel, or if there are choices, no more up to 3 that can lead to maybe two endings XD!! But Kinetic might be the best way to go. We shall see.

MAGIC GIRLS 8D!
Stalking this. This is just going to be fabulous.
Also, voiced dialogue? 8D
Wish you the best of luck for this ^^

How's that going for script? As big as your cast is, you might have some issues.
I'm going to get off my soap-box now, and let you get back to your day.

Oh, but it makes it more challenging, ne? Technically there are only 13 characters, if you combine the teens with their alter-egos. Some will get more spotlight than others.

And all the characters have a voice actor! Amazing, ne? Though some do have dual parts (and one girl has taken 3!) but still...

Yes, so many sprite styles <3

We probably won't have this finished for NaNoRenO, due to some things that have caused delay (for example, my computer acting up >.<). However, we plan to have a demo of the game out on April First. Not sure if that'll count, but either way, we gotta show something!
