About Me I've been a writer since about 2010, primarily in the role-play sphere, and I've a bachelor's...

Re: Writing, Editing, and Proofreading (Small Projects Are Free!)

Cipher was an editor for our latest VN, "Ah! My Girlfriend is a Demon Summoned from the Depths of Hell!". He was responsible for reviewing and editing about 45k words of script, a task which he was able to do within a week (important given the circumstances of the game jam). He was also al...

Re: Visual Novel too Short?

There's something to be said about proper pacing in a visual novel and poor pacing anchors an otherwise fantastic VN. Never pad length for the sake of word count (unless you're getting paid by the letter ;) ), just do you!

Re: Secret Santa

I already PMed to Dreamgazer and Yuuki but I figure it'd be good to share it here as well. Watercress Studios uploaded its contribution to this year's Secret Santa sometime last night. For Yuuki, we made Seeds of Sylvia ! I really love Secret Santas, and we opted to go all in with a VN. There were s...

How important is voice acting to you?

I was in a chat with my friends who were talking about Umineko and their differing experiences. One read it without the PS3 patch for updated sprites and voice acting, the other with. The general exchange got me thinking about the place of voice acting in VNs at large. When a VN offers voice-acting,...

Re: Writing Likeable Murderers?

The premise of producing a likeable character who commits unspeakable acts, I would say, doesn't really have a silver bullet attached to it to execute well. There are enough tropes attached to it, but the act of murder itself is usually a critical plotpoint that deserves sufficient investigation. Fo...

Re: How to start talking to followers

Tumblr is chiefly a content aggregate and interacting with followers is actually fairly hard without direct messaging. Consider advertising other avenues for potential hangouts on your tumblr to see who swings by. Art streams are especially fun and a solid option.

Re: How do you take criticism?

I study whatever feedback I get closely as an indicator of what I'm doing right and wrong. I'm also hyper-critical of my own work that I might distort my own modest impressions of it, so I take everything with a grain of salt. I like thorough feedback that does a very specific job at pointing to par...

Re: Watercress Studios: NaNoRenO '15 Stream

Gonna bump this up to announce that we're doing another stream tomorrow (Saturday) at 9PM EDT. Scallywags and Three Guys That Paint are shortlisted for our picks this round though we might pick some others (if they don't, it's a safe bet they'll appear the following week). We'll be doing this weekly...

Hope to see you there too! Worst case scenario, I've already promised a bunch of folk I'll be recording and uploading it later for everyone, so you can check that out if you miss Scallywags.

Re: Binary Distortion [Kinetic][Slice of Life][NaNoReno2015]

Haunting, commanding, and powerful. It's incredibly unique and I think the effort into animating the glitches was incredibly well-executed. Everyone should experience this, there's nothing else like it, especially not from this round of NaNoRenO.

Incredible stuff. I was entranced all the way through.
