Hi, if I can ask one question...I had a thread for a game I was working on a while ago, but I basically ended up scratching a good part of it, and now I have a lot more content to show for it. Would it be okay to start a new thread for it for neatness' sake? (I haven't posted on the old thread since...

Everything is going great, if a bit slowly for my tastes. No boring difficulties that came up, just haven't had as much time to work on the game as I'd like. Still, we are going at a decent pace right now. Chapter 1(out of 5) is done with the "blocking." In other words all text for the fir...

As a small update, game has been coming along nicely. It's taking a bit more of my time than I wish it did, but I haven't hit any roadblocks lately. It's kind of eerie, actually. I keep expecting to run into some major unforeseen issue and, nope, everything is going along just fine. I took a week ou...

Yeah looks very hack-ish. Not that there's anything unusual with that for in-process development. :wink: Again, thanks for taking the time to explain it out. I think it's very exciting that you're pushing the boundaries and coming up with new inventive ways to make visual novels. Props to you for t...

Splendid. Thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed account of your development. You know someone is proud of what they've done when they really take the time to explain everything =P How did you go about organizing the actual content/flow of the game, like scripting each individual scene...

Thanks for the encouragement guys, it makes me really happy to see you guys like murder mysteries! I've been working on some assets and I might be able to get a few videos/screenshots soon. I'm still really not happy with how the UI is turning out, so I may have to hire someone to do that part later...

3D animation is getting better and better. To make something like roosterteeth, it's...not impossible, even on free software, but it takes some time and I honestly just don't think it's worth it. I might end up doing 3D characters eventually, just not now. Not worth the time and effort for a dubious...

One thing that really upsets me: Shaders. I'll elaborate--I'm using Unity for some stuff so that I have 3D(but sorta 2D looking) backgrounds and 2D characters. That's working great so far. The only issue? Well, that would be the lighting. I really liked the idea of 3D lighting affecting 2D sprites b...

There's not much worse than going Work->Sports Contest->University Exam with around 10 minutes in between each of them. Luckily I didn't have to write an essay, 'else my arm would have fallen off. Man those last few weeks were crazy. I think I said I'd make a "basic 3D videos for visual novels&...

Dear artist at work who I shall never know the name of thanks to the dumb streamlined process we have to deal with:

I love you for sending the original psd files for the reference image and for naming the layers after the material you used. There's a special place in heaven for people like you.

@Faze: Any chance you'd be willing to share some code snippets or references you used for 3D in Ren'Py? I'm sure there would be a lot of people who would be interested, even if it was very limited. Oh yeah sure, absolutely. It's only pseudo 3D, mind you, since it was just raycasting, but I can defi...

That's beautiful functionality. Which engine are you using, or is it for a video within the game? Thanks! I'm using Unity right now, though the project started on renpy. I mapped the 3D using Blender, then just had Unity render it. I had the camera on a fixed path for the sake of recording it, but ...

Phew, just finished setting up the geometry for the 3D in one background. Still need to re-texture it, but I think it's looking pretty nice(the camera mapping): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6zeLKeoGd8&feature=youtu.be Took me about...fifteen minutes to turn a 2d image into that. Next comes a ...
