Re: VN Scene with no Art/Graphics?

wait hold on everyone, this can be done but the only side effect is that it requires lots of sounds. yes some people might not like it but thats how games are made, some dont like shooters and some dont like puzzles. if you made the textbox into something like this then you dont have to worry about...

Re: VN Scene with no Art/Graphics?

While I don't know what your story's going to be about or what the overall atmosphere's gonna be like, but that whole hazy background idea can be a great opportunity to trip out your audience :P Stuff of nightmares and the like.

Re: VN Scene with no Art/Graphics?

10 minutes is a really long time. I think what you can do is make it not 100% black, but a little hazy.

VN Scene with no Art/Graphics?

First off, I'm so sorry if I put this in the wrong place! This seemed like the best area to ask about this, but maybe I missed something glaringly obvious (it's been known to happen).
