Re: What is your favorite writing tips ?

Agree with waiting a day before re-reading what you've written. I find that printing and reading a physical copy makes it a lot easier to catch mistakes you might otherwise miss.

Re: My first VN. Tips and pointers?

It's awesome to see you branching out to games. Welcome to the forums! I agree with everything dramspringfeald has said. I wouldn't worry about static stories at all as some of the best VNs I've played through have been static. I personally don't really like it when a story could have been told stat...

Re: Would You Like to Achieve all Romances in 1 Playthrough?

I agree with everything that's been said so far. As long as there's a skip button, I'd go for the one romance at a time approach.

Re: Guestbook

Hullo. I actually had an account here at some point, got caught up in real life, forgot my account details...clumsy me. So yup. Here I am again. Been a fan of VNs for the longest time. Thought I'd try my hand at one solo a while ago. Got caught up in the art and never really made it to finishing the...
