I have been able to maintain motivation on this project and actually have a fair amount of story beats down. But as I am writing, I am realizing that I should probably scale it back a little bit. Initially, there was supposed to be a big magic element and they group set out on taking down an ancient...

I personally really loved the asexual ending for Arcade Spirits (https://store.steampowered.com/app/910630/Arcade_Spirits/) It worked (for me) in that you didn't really lose out on anything by taking that path (other than a romance, I guess?). The story follows the same no matter who you romance, w...

Sorry to give a non-answer, but this is 100% subjective. When it comes to length, visual novels share the same rules as books. It simply ends when the story ends. If you visit the Visual Novel Database ( vndb.org ) you can find commercial VNs which are 50+ hours long. I would never recommend tackli...

I'd argue to say there is no such thing as "too long", rather a story usually fails by becoming stale, or cliche as it goes on. Repeating the same dialogue patterns, relying on the same gimmicks, adding content for the sake of centent (often called padding or filler), is usually what make...

I definitively prefer a fully-fledged main character, with a name, a past, a personality, an impactful design, ... I know a lot of players prefer a blank slate MC. I think both paths are fine as long as you really commit to it. Don't do things half-way. If you give a name to the MC, make sure that ...

By "named MC" do you mean a fully developed character whose purpose isn't to act as a blank slate? In that case, go for it! There are many VNs with such a protagonist (including my own) so it's anything but strange. However, if you talking about a blank slate MC who simply has a pre-selec...

Alone ending : 👍 This has been done in "cute demon crasher" (https://sugarscript.itch.io/cute-demon-crashers) and it was really thoughtful and nicely done. Heart system: I'm the kind of player who would try talking with everyone, so, yes, I would definitively prefer if the game asked me t...

Hello there! I am currently working on a game. In truth it is the first time I am this excited and motivated to get a story out. Ultimately, I know I want to release the game because I enjoy and am proud of it. But I thought it may not hurt to get some perspective on some recent questions that have ...

I was wondering how someone would make a character creator for the MC. Also, if it would be possible for the love interest too?

=Maybe I will just figure this out in a different way=

This is great! Thanks!

It could depend on where you live. If you live in a bigger city you might be lucky enough to have an indie gaming community that does meet ups where people discuss ideas and get feedback from others. If you're in the US I know that Seattle and Portland have meet ups and Vancouver, CA has one as wel...

I really love brainstorming ideas but sometimes I can't find someone to help me out. Is there somewhere that people would suggest going? Or maybe like a discord or something?
