Re: Free and Open Source Software for assets

For free art software but not open source, you can also use: - Medibang Paint : free on windows, Android and iOS but might have some ads on mobile -Fire Aplaca: free on windows, art file compatible with Medibang ( Medibang was created from Fire Aplaca) but seem to perform better than Medibang on Win...

Re: How can you judge what is a "reasonable amount of time" to be working on a game?

Many people here already mentioned the main point : plot outline is very very important in team work. The first thing I consider after creating a nice premise is "How will it end?". If there's multiple endings then " What is the best and worst way it can end?". Then I would go up...

Re: Music and SFX for adult VN ?

DLsite is a great place to look. Most of the stock music sold on DLsite doesn't have restrictions, some didn't even require you to give credit (but of course that is you choice to link credit or not). Probably because adult game in Japan is big? If you buy during sale, you can buy a lot of stock mus...

Re: What got you into making visual novels?

If its what made me pay attention to VN as a medium, that would be a BL game I came across in 2014 (I never play any real VN before). But the main reason: it's a story telling medium that work well with an artist, it's aesthetically pleasing but not as resource demanding as comic, and it require wri...

Re: Is it worth having a Mobile version for your game?

It depends on whether your game is free or paid. For paid it's not going to be worth it unless your game is already well-known. As for the latter, definitely go for it as you'll reach a wide audience. Agree with this. I have seen some Winterwolves games on android, so it would be nice to have their...

Re: Would making an anime fan-game be illegal?

Yes technically it's illegal, just like the million of fanart, fanfiction, doujinshi and doujinsoft based on anime out there on the internet. Every fanwork creator out there take a risk to create things for fellow fan and their own enjoyment. It's a risk but it's a small risk, as japanese company ge...

I'm gonna keep you on my short list of potential artists, I like your stuff. How do you feel about a big project, ten characters with descriptions, reference photos and the like? Also, I love the image of the girl staring down the cupcake. Made me cackle pretty hard. Hey, sorry for the late reply. ...

I think as long as they say that they are leaving the project, it is okay because life wont always go as planned , but lea...

Re: Really Small Pond: How Do I Market Myself in this Niche?

Developing your own style is great and all, but if you have the ability to mimic style, that would open you to a lot more possibility. There are many artists who do sprite but don't have time to do CG, and I have gotten some offers to mimic art style of sprite artist in CG.

Re: MechaNoid [Sci-fi][Mystery][BxB?]

@Azure_Flute Thank you! For this project, I tried my best to get it as visual appealing as I could. As for Calvin being a bachelor, actually there is no bachelor to go after in this game. It doesn't follow the BL game formula with the main character going after character route, but a scifi/mystery w...

Re: Of character name and nationality

Ofcourse when making a story, I always take setting into consideration. It's only when the setting is more generic that name and culture are hard to choose. For example, in futuristic setting, both western and eastern setting will still have skyscraper everywhere, so I think I can pick whatever kind...

Of character name and nationality

Do you have a hard time coming up with character name and nationality? What do you usually do to get inspiration to name a character? I believe many people would come up with personality and outer appearance of the character first before naming them. But then, sometimes I find it hard to come up wit...
