Re: Leon's BGs [critiques welcome!]

I love the style. Especially the interiors that look like a blend of dead drawn lines and photos, there's something to the flatness of the lines and colors compared to the sometimes really realistic objects/shadows that seems like it would fit perfectly with a lot of character styles I've seen on th...

Frustelid's Works in Progress

Hello, this is my DeviantArt page where I've been posting some art I've been working on for an in-progress game. https://www.deviantart.com/frustelid I'm working on character and background art.

Color Palette Resources

I'm currently struggling with the color palette for a moody/sexy game. I am the artist, but color isn't the strongest part of my game. I want to limit the colors via a fixed palette so I'm not spending untold hours scrubbing sliders. Limitation is good, especially when you're learning. I don't have ...

Re: Color Theory Study - Idea Factory + palate associations

A very interesting post/study. I've been thinking about color palette a lot as I'm trying to determine some limitations for a game I'm working on. Interesting to see that a lot of the palettes overlap or are very similar. Makes me think they are working from an overall palette...

Re: Programs for Organizing Scripts and Notes?

My favorite (free) Word Processor (suite): WPS Office My favorite (free, open source) Text Editor (has Renpy extension): Sublime Text You can certainly write in a Text Editor, and Sublime is great for that.

Re: Writing VN's with story structure different than "hero journey"

Dan Harmon of RnM and Community fame has a story structure based on but different from the Hero structure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RG4WcRAgm7Y Noticeable in his examples of his own work is that some of the most memorable parts of those episodes are not major points on the "wheel", ...
