Re: The indie game review show (Lookie here)

Re: Amateur VN writer's Critique Group

I don't get it. What's wrong with the forums here?

Re: Sprite request

Re: 'True' endings

I don't think a total, absolute disney-style happy ending for everyone is really worth the trouble.

Re: Help with your Japanese game titles.

If you don't live in Japan and can't even write proper Japanese, you shouldn't write about Japan. Since no one ever listens to the former advice, at least avoid having a Japanese title.
