Jagariko (salad flavor) are one of my favorite Japanese snacks. They are basically cylinder shaped, flavored potato chips.
Crunchy and addictive (and unlike chocolate, they don't melt in the heat)!

Re: Custom Menus

Could you be a little more specific? I'm not sure what "menu buttons" is supposed to refer to - buttons on the main menu, buttons presenting menu choices in dialogue or something else? A) If you just want to change the buttons in the main or game menu (but not elsewhere), an imagemap might be a good...

Re: WIP - The Stolen Diamond Ring

I hope this is one of those games that gives the player a little more control in the investigation. (Judging from the second screen shot in your post before this one?) Sorry for not replying earlier ^^; Yes, it allows a bit more freedom / interactivity than a traditional VN, but it`s still fairly c...

Re: WIP - The Stolen Diamond Ring

A quick update: The game should be coming out soon and we have just added music, so we decided to do a short video preview of chapter 1 : The framerate is a bit low so the transitions and some of the effects don't really look like they do ingame, but it should give you the general idea. Chapter 1 is...

Re: What annoys you in visual novels?

what I really hate the most in VN's is the fillers (you know, words and phrases that seems the only purpose is to make things longer) I second that! (Although I'm afraid I went to the other extreme on the current project ^^;;;) For years, I have been prejudiced against VN because I felt they were 5...

Re: [Phase Shift] (WIP+Demo)

The promo image looks nice!

Don't give up!
Shortening the story isn't necessarily a bad thing - for the first project especially, a short story might work better than a longer one.

Re: Character name positioning [Solved]

Thank you!!

I had to implement all of the above (set the various Character show_who_window_properties as well as who_xpos and who_ypos inside the name window), and split the dialogue background in two, but now it finally works ^_^

Re: Rhythm Games

Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan is definitely my favourite.

Haven't played the sequel, though - I bought it months ago, but have been too busy to play ;_;
