Re: Planning vs improvising

It really depends on the story, but I personally plan every little detail before writing. Improvisation is fun, but planning lets me organize my thoughts and makes it easier for me to keep track of what's happened and what will happen, and if the event I want to introduce will even make sense in the...

Re: VN game play and experience questions

1) When drawing a background for a game does changing little things like lighting ect really help with the story? Yes yes yes, especially lighting. Lighting is really important to show the general atmosphere around the environment; the reader would know if it was the middle of the day, midnight, or...

Re: Characterization

1. What do you love most about creating a character, and why? I love coming up with the different relationships between my characters because their interactions are interesting to me. I also like seeing how my characters live in the world I've created. 2. What process do you go through when designi...

Re: Reusing assets from previous works

As mikolajspy said: If the next game is a sequel, then no problem. However, if it's a competely new game, then it would depend on what type of asset it is. Reusing sound effects or music isn't as noticeable as using the same art because they're not the main focus of a scene. If a creator uses the sa...

Re: What Do YOU Prefer When Playing a VN?

1. Do you prefer if the setting is in Japan or the West (America, Italy, UK, etc.) I'll be okay with anything as long as it isn't in a Japanese high school, or, if the setting is indeed a Japanese high school, if the setting somehow subverts many of the common tropes in that type of story. 2. Do yo...

Re: What got you into making visual novels?

1. I didn't write novels because I was too impatient when writing description, I didn't write comics because I was worried that the artist wouldn't draw it exactly like I wanted, and I didn't write screenplays because I felt like the things I wrote were too long and I didn't want to relinquish contr...

Re: Favorite English Visual Novel?

Butterfly Soup takes the cake for me. Even though the art is relatively simple and there's not a lot of plot (it's a slice of life) I really love the characters and their interactions. I also really like Anime: The Visual Novel for the meta humor and the art. Childhood friend looks absolutely amazin...
