Automated lipsyncing + blinking + animation now works.

This game is also partially voiced. Maybe fully voiced at some point.

Re: Creating a Topic for your Game

"Updates to Patreon-backed games may be posted once every 2 months."

I am interpreting this as "only one paywall post every 2 months," because although I have a patreon, it is not a huge source of funds, and when I post here, the update is not behind a paywall.

Correct?

Re: Why do YOU like/play/read/make VNs & Kinetic Novels?

From a writing perspective, I really like the script format of engines like Ren'Py (although I'm currently using Naninovel for Unity, which has a similar approach). Ink is another good one. I've tried using "node-based" workflows and it would not be an exaggeration to say I hate them. (Art...

Re: Have you ever made a Visual Novel with multiple POV characters?

Yes, I did. ( Tell a Demon ) It required a massive spreadsheet. But it was a lot of fun to write, because protagonists can romance other protagonists (I was definitely snickering while writing some of these scenes...) But yeah... lots of spreadsheet organization required and story-bug-fixing after a...

Re: How do you write a plot?

My process: 1. Brainstorm scenes I really want to write using flash cards or the digital equivalent (assuming I'll need 1 card for a scene, with scenes being an approximate wordcount length, and a certain number of scenes being required for each act). 2. Rearrange the plot cards so they start to mak...

Re: Handling Translation Requests

I wouldn't say 'ignore them.' I'm more likely to say, "We'd love to be able to offer translated versions of our games. However, we're a small indie developer and don't have the budget to do so at this time. Thank you for your interest and we're sorry we can't offer [Game Title] in [Language].&q...
