Just a preview of things to come.

The rest is still classified information.

Perhaps this time around it is cross-parody with My Teacher? :lol:

Quick, people. Figure out who has a "K" as the first letter in his name. :D

I've created a monster, figuratively and literally.

Looking forward to the finished work, though.

mugenjohncel: Uh, can I have a monopoly on use of shotguns, at least for now? :D

Otherwise, yeah, go all out.

What is this monster that you speak of. Or there might be a parody of something else that I'm unaware of?

I'd assumed he was talking about Lucy...

Just curious was this your long-term project all along, before Lucy's Revenge took you on a temporary (only 5-days though) detour? Because I just saw that other thread with all the options screens, and I can't help but salivate profusely. It looks really epic too.

Yes actually... I have started working on an unnamed project (now called My Dear Teacher - Mr. K) a few months ago (IIRC I have posted about it in here quite a while ago... if only I could remember where it was) and it originally only has two (2) girls Elena and Cecilia but my knowledge in Ren'py back then is quite limited and progress is slow (things are different now).

Also, Mr.K (Gan Kalibo) originally started as a 6o year old high school teacher but later revised him as a 30+ guy but nevertheless the story remained unchanged (with few minor modifications).

One of the major changes from the original is removing regional (Locality) specific content as much as I can (Jokes, Scenarios, Etc...) so everybody can enjoy the story (regardless of country of origin).

Second, I removed uneccessary/redundant scenarios and make sure not to bite more than I can chew (I make sure I don't set my sights on unrealistic goals and carefully plan everything before I commit any effort).

But the most important thing I have learned after all that is to plan everything carefully and stick to the original plan (For those who voted for the Meganekko option... NOPE! not this time). Because changing something in the middle of the script can lead to unforseen consequences (like More Delays, Screwed-up story flow etc...)

About Lucy... Classified Information.

If this is ANYTHING like Lucy's Revenge, I'm looking forwards to this! =)

Ah, I see.

Actually my approach on the other hand is to keep the regional-specific content but make them understated so that those who 'get it' will get it while minimizing those who scratch their heads realizing they missed something somewhere. Kind of like the Shrek effect...there are jokes only adults can get, but the kids can have fun as well.

It's not going to be easy, but better to have some flavor even if its not for everyone's palattes than no flavor at all. Even the way the author grew up will influence how he thinks and writes, so there's really no way to erase culture and locality from a work. The only thing left is just to make it authentic. The corollary is that there is no greater offense than for an author to write in a culture he is not an expert in (for example while none of us can truly write in a Japanese perspective, we are still capable of writing from a global Japanophile otaku perspective.)

I just had to let those out but I still respect your decisions so you can make the entertaining product you want it to be.
