Re: How important is music in a visual novel?

TL;DR I don't think it's absolutely necessay to have music (or sound) in a VN but I think most people expect it and I think it heightens the experience. Books are different. They rely on the reader to imagine what things look and sound like but the type of prose used in books isn't regularly encoun...

How important is music in a visual novel?

How important do you think music is, in a visual novel? In a written novel its not there, obviously. Only your imagination as you create the pictures and voices. And it works fine. In a comic or graphic novel its absent. The pictures are there but you create the voices and sounds yourself. Also work...

Re: EXSTACY ISLAND [18+] [Adult Adventure Mystery]

I like the art (I also looked at the art in your 'adult work in progress' topic) :D . How far along are you on development? When do you expect to release the full game? Will it be free? Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. How far along are you on development? The main story and [26] chapters...

Re: Replies, Views, Downloads...[Q?]

If you hover the mouse over the image then it shows the view count for that image and it should be the same as the download count as reported in the user control panel. The view count of the image is not necessarily the same as the view count of the post itself in which the attachment is placed. I ...

I was looking through my control panel and noticed something i didn't understand.

Is it that some are downloading many times? Or are there ...

Re: As a Solo Dev, What is your workflow? [conversation]

Good question. Ive tried a few different approaches. But the one that keeps things moving for me goes like this. 1 Set up a new renpy game. 2 Write some of the story so far. Not too much. 3 Code it how you want it to appear on screen. 4 Do the backgrounds and add them. 5 Do the characters and add th...

Re: WIP/DEMO/INTRO ... next steps?

I definitely recommend beta testers. Getting feedback prior to release is really important! If possible, I think it's especially helpful to have someone play as you watch. See how long it takes them to play. See if there are things they struggle with. See if there are parts they're lingering on, la...

WIP/DEMO/INTRO ... next steps?

Hi. I [finally] have my 'intro' ready for others to view and comment on. So I'm wondering what the next steps may be. I don't really want to 'send it out there' just yet. Rather, I'd just like someone with experience to look it over for any glaring rookie errors. Also wondering what's the best way t...
