Re: Finding a Target Audience

I think you have to do what you like, if you try to do anything else, it's not going to be any good.

Re: Do you draw/write solely for fun?

Work can turn the hobby you're most passionate about into something you hate so be careful.

Re: The first anime you ever saw?

Hard to remember, whatever was on the French TV at the end of the 70s: Grendizer (known as Goldorak in French), Candy Candy, Battle of the Planets.

What got me started as an anime fan years later was Bubblegum Crisis.

Re: Writing You vs I

That's a very interesting question. Most of (all?) the old game books (choose your own adventure, fighting fantasy) that are similar in concept to visual novels were written using the second person. The same is true for interactive fiction (text adventure games). Why is this not often the case for v...

Re: Getting started: the roadmap to creating a first VN

Umm...so which one you're gonna use? Ren'Py or Novelty? Ren'Py. After doing some more research it has become clear it's the right choice for me. It's open-source and based on Python and Pygame. I really like the Python language and I've used Pygame before so that makes it easy for me to customize R...

Getting started: the roadmap to creating a first VN

Hey guys, A while ago I discovered renpy and this forum and I thought it might be fun to try to make a visual novel. But before I could even get started, other things including studying Japanese and a new full-time job took precedence and I kind of forgot about it. But the other day I saw a screensh...

Re: Time factor

I'd rather play a 15 min long well polished game than a 2 hours game of a lesser quality. That being said, I don't think it's that hard to make a 2 hours game in a month even if you're not really free 24/7. But can you make a really good game though? One that people are going to want to play for a w...

Re: VN Translation World Record Attempt! (The Question 17+1+12)

What? Nobody has made the Klingon version yet? I thought it would be done since I had a good laugh when I stumbled upon this example in Klingon in the renpy manual. :mrgreen: More seriously, an Esperanto version is needed. Unfortunately my skills in that language are really rusty (and never went pas...

Re: Guestbook

Hi guys, I'm Codexus, 33, coder :mrgreen: A few days ago I saw renpy mentioned on deviantart and was interested. It seems really nice. I'm particularly impressed by how neatly it's packaged and easy to use out of the box. As I said I'm a coder and I've already made games with pygame so I expected to...
