Lemma Soft Forums

So I've seen a lot of threads recently about writing characters who are generally unlikable, like murderers or bullies. It's an interesting discussion to be having, because I've also seen a rise in popularity of the "villain protagonist," or the type of main character that clearly resides on the wro...

Wow. I don't have any use for them at the moment, but these are some fantastic photos. Kinda makes me sad that I can't use them. D:

I think there's a real value to simply taking photographs of scenic areas and letting people filter them. Thank you for that. I look forward to seeing more of them!

It really is contingent upon having a gameplay reason to explore, which is why most of the games that utilize it are puzzle- or investigation-driven. Information is the reward, so it has to be a game where that information has an intrinsic value, either by helping you solve puzzles, or by giving you...

Hmm... part of the problem, from my perspective at least, is that the premise seems to hinge on the male characters being jerks. I mean, if it's a VN about bullies, doing it half-assed would sort of defeat the purpose. As for making them more likeable... I'm not sure if there's a surefire way to do ...

Sometimes I pick the mc gender base on the looks. But I agree that playing your own gender is more natural. @Kailoto your profile pic remind me of Persona3 (I like your profile). Argh I suddenly miss Akihiko. (I better play it again, After im done with Artonelico ) Ehehe, I finished P3 FES about ha...

No, thank you. :D

Updated the OP; for the moment, I won't be taking on anymore work until I really start getting into the projects I'm currently on. I'll update this thread when that changes.

Oh this is very helpful =), and thank you for the info on what I misspelled. Also sorry for some of the sentence structure confusion....For some reason this happens at times ;_;. I get it, it happens to me too. Sometimes I look back on stuff I wrote the day before and just scratch my head. I find r...

"Welcome to the N.H.K" for me. It's a fantastic show that also hits pretty close to home for me, especially now as a post college graduate wondering what to do with his life. I'm an unabashed Gundam fan too, so I'd probably place Gundam 00 up there as well for TV anime, and have 8th MS team as my f...

I don't listen to them while working, but yes, they are. Botanic Sage is love, Botanic Sage is life.

I've collected over 40 GB of video game and anime soundtracks over the years, not to mention all the ones I can find online... whenever I'm ready to work for a while I put a playlist on, maybe add in some ambiance if I'm having trouble focusing, and I'm set. I wrote an 80,000 word novel almost exclu...

I usually start off with male (same gender)... but if it's a game that allows for you to choose and has different content for each, I almost always replay it from a female perspective as well. And if one of the the options is the "default" or easier difficulty, I'll start with that, even if it's a f...

Ahh, the tail... it's always the tail, isn't it? XD I'm assuming Rinoa POV, correct? The writing seems fine, although I'm by no means an expert with these types of scenes - nothing jumps out at me, in other words. It's too short an excerpt for me to really judge on the characters, but as long as the...

I may have something.... um... I'll PM you.

I look forward to working with you! (^_^ )

If the creator has decreed it to be free to use, there shouldn't be any limitations to keeping it within the Ren'Py engine... if you want to use assets in GameMaker for example, there shouldn't be any problems. Just follow whatever rules they set down, and if it's unclear then just ask them directly...

I do not recommend that you edit as you write. It will destroy your ability to put out work in a timely manner. If there's "universal truths" of writing, this is one of them. When you start writing, never look back. First drafts are terrible, terrible things because they're the moment when a story ...
