Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...

Stress has been building up from a)still living with my family while going to college; b)school work and c) my job's hassles and requirements, which all built up and ended with me having a meltdown over losing my name tag for work earlier. It'll be embarrassing to ask my boss for ANOTHER name tag be...

Re: What are you listening to while you write?

Inuyasha OST is really good background music for me; otherwise piano/rain music or cello/rain. Sometimes I listen to ballad-pop at a very low volume (like Christina Perri or Lana del Rey).

Re: Looking for Coders -Date Sim-

I hope you can get some help- perhaps describe the complexity or simplicity of the game, what exactly are you envisioning? Is it kinetic/linear, or branching paths? What points/qualities/stats are you expecting to track? What kinds of effects are you expecting? ALSO. OMIGOSH. I love this idea to pie...

Re: Ideas Dump

I got this idea while volunteering in the first aid booth (being trained in basic first aid) at a local event, and we had an unusually warm day with hot afternoon sun and long walking distance, which led to people overheating and passing out: Have a game where the goal is to be a super-awesome nurse...

Re: Recommend some K & J drama

I absolutely loved Itazura na kiss. :) It's definitely a dramatic but good work. I also loved Ouran Host Club. I'm a time-restricted binge-watcher so when I have a free weekend, I take on a whole season or two in two days. Those both were very addicting :)

Re: How to distribute earnings?

It really depends on if you are equal partners (both contributing, working actively), the person has been commissioned for a specific amount (one time payment, but you would like to give them a bonus)- and for this I suggest agreeing that if your game sells past a certain threshold you will pay them...

Re: Code for defining custom character name not working

That is a really complicated way of doing that :o You just want the player to be able to input a name, right? That's fairly simple, I've been using this: k "Welcome!" k "Prepare to enter the game!" k "First, I need your name. That way, I know what to call you!" $ p = renpy.input ("My name is", "", l...

Re: IPhone Otome Woes

I agree with you somewhat. I mean, some of the Voltage stories and the like are amusing to read... but only amusing. Few evoke the feels we really want to feel, and even fewer have a smart, goal-setting, "real" mc. While some of the premises of the games are fun (I admit, I'm a sucker for Be My Prin...

Re: Blackout [GxB] [Mystery, Romance]

Update: I've added random encounters with each character that will occur in each route that offer the opportunity (if you are in the right place at the right time) for extra clues as to who is creating problems/up to no good during your stay at the lake house. So, for example, if you help one charac...

Re: Best Anime Ever Watched?

I'm a sucker for romance anime. Ouran Host Club- God, I wish I was there. I wish that host club was a real thing! Inuyasha (no hate, but it was just epic and so reliable, many hours of good entertainment ;) Itazura na kiss- Reminded me of my high school days. It's usually liked because it goes past ...

Re: Lovely Little Thieves [GxB/G] [Horror/Romance] [UPDATE 8

I am totally in love with the background and sprite art!!!! And the premise has me chilled already. I can't wait for this. I'm half afraid to play it if it turns out as scary as it sounds... but it would definitely be worth trying. Despite the fact that I'm a terrible chicken.

Re: Should I actually bother trying to make a VN?

I was in this boat. I just dabbled with my first project, being a writer and not a natural programmer- but after working on my first project (yes, google search images as placeholder art, didn't even get original sprites made for the characters, used freebies I found around) and sounds from free sou...
