I played parts of your demo, and I have to agree that the style inconsistency of the sprites really turn me off. To me, it's one of the worst things you can do: mix different styles together. Even if your style sucks, has bad anatomy and shading - as long as its consistent then I have no problems wi...

Actually it can be hard! Especially to people like me that want to know every possible ending/option in the game. When I play a game whit various outcomes I always want to try them all! Having just 4 saves here will do no good to people like me because there are 5 bachelors... Well, you have to rem...

Trees are like, my specialty or something.



So there you go, you can use it ^_^

If you're going to change the backgrounds per season, you'd have to do more than simple hue changing, for winter you'd have actual snow lying around like this: http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/6674/bgsnow.png It doesn't take that long really, just paint over it and you're done. For autumn you coul...

Family and friends will want discounts and it general will be more demanding and treat you worse than total strangers. That is so true and always pisses me off. I'm the artist of the family, and I do graphic design mostly. My father has a ton of businesses under his belt, and is always bothering me...

There are tons of tutorials on DeviantArt on how to colour using Photoshop or even Sai, you should look there. There's a also a lot of videos to be found on YouTube, but then again, most of them are just showing off their drawing process.

I use side images. http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/9060/ttscreenshot39.png Mostly because the resolution is very small (544x416), and it's easier to see the expression of the character changing when it's closer to the text. But my project isn't a VN though. For a VN I think side images are perfec...

I updated the OP with anime styled noses, and added 10 more different eye shapes as well. I'll be adding more facial features references in the future, such as the lips or the shape of the head etc.

Wanting to become an illustrator, your work must be damn near perfect to compete with other artists, and you need to have connections. If you don't have either of those, then yeah, it's pretty much a dead end. I'm being realistic here. Same goes for anything game related. I almost made the foolish m...

I have no problems with it. It's not a definite rule that if you make a VN you should have CGs. It's just an extra perk.

I was thinking that adding to it might be more appropriate that removing from it. Something like: My dating sim - like a more adult Harvest Moon. or something like that. Forgive the clumsy phrasing. I'll just claim that I was a little surprised by how mature this game has gotten, given what I was e...

You might want to change your signature and elevator pitch to reflect the maturity of the game. You tend to compare the game to Harvest Moon - but those are all Everyone-rated games. You'd probably want to give this at least a 16+ rating - and that's fine. It's just that when you compare a 16+ game...

Whenever Comic Sans MS is being used, I die a little inside. It was the most popular font to use back in early 2000, and is now commonly associated with ignorant, computer illiterate people. Oh, and designers hate the font, it's just, ugh, it screams amateur. Use a nice sans serif font, regardless o...

I think this is in the right section. I also think it's usually a bad idea to "spice up" the main text with a fancy font - where fancy font is pretty much any font that was designed more for style than for readability. There are two places where I think fancy fonts are "ok". The first is in the use...

AM stands for Affection Mode, you are able to 'touch' a bachelor during this mode. You are able to go into AM after a successful date of the uncensored version. I don't think I've ever seen this feature in a western romance game. It's an interesting gameplay concept... though it has the potential t...
