I think visuals are important for first impressions before you download, that is they make people want to download your game. It may be more difficult to prove you have great writing in a game just based on the landing page. Illustrations can be simple, they don't need to be complex, but the more i...

In my experience, a lot of people measure the length of visual novels in terms of how long it would take to read them. I just googled average reading speed and the first result tells me it's about 200-300 words per minute, so 12k-18k words in an hour, which would make a 70k word story roughly 4-6 ho...

Wow, I remember reading this way back when I was first getting into VNs! It's really cute. Good luck with the steam release!

You could probably find some good ones if you go through Alte's list of links to icons and clipart in the Links to CC Resources section.

Three years later, there are any new ideas on this? I'm interested. Yes, I believe the OP of this thread is one of the developers of Monster Prom , a multiplayer VN that came out last year and is an absolute joy to play with friends. They also have a more recent DLC for it that I've been meaning to...

As well as the excellent Creative Commons section here, a lot of people post game assets for free or cheap on itch.io. Here's just a search for assets tagged with "visual novel."

I'm experimenting with this code for the first time and I seem to have added too many periods for the day planner screen to deal with - right now they're stretching off of the screen like this (there should be a Monday, Saturday, and Sunday in there, but you can't see them): screenshot0002.png I'm a...

This sounds really fun! I always like stories that borrow from Lovecraft, especially the ones that are probably making him roll over in his grave. I really like your character designs too - it's really cute how they each have their own colour that kind of makes a rainbow, and their outfits are all s...

This looks super cute! I love the look of the catperson with the little top hat especially. Do you get to choose which ingredients to mix to summon people?

This is really cool! I've been wondering about a good way to implement custom pronouns. Thanks for sharing!

This was really cute! I especially loved the background art.

I've updated the main post with some new screenshots now that the new background artist, Chiharu-J , has been working on adding some lovely colour! I've also put together a little website for marketing . If anyone gets a chance to take a look at the site, let me know what you think of it and if ther...

I'm glad to see this is still ongoing! How many chapters are you planning to have in total?

I've been enjoying the twitter updates on this for a while! It sounds like such a fun concept and I really love the art and GUI. I think it will definitely be interesting to read about all the different kinds of relationships you can form with the characters, and to see how that affects Mimi's writi...

I'd love recommendations of others to look into for satire fodder. I think Loveless is the only one on my look-into list at the moment. A couple other catgirl VNs I've heard of (but haven't read, so I'm not sure how useful they'll be to you) are Neko-nin exHeart and Let's Meow Meow. You might also ...
