Re: ebi's digital sketchbook.

Thanks again! What I meant with the transparency thing, is that I don't know how to get it to come out transparent once I save it. for example, I usually get rid of the white background before saving my work as a jpg/png file, but even so, the drawings still get a white background. But I'll tinker w...

Re: game without backgrounds

If you're already working in watercolors, why not just do a few washes of various colors and use those for backgrounds? This is what I'd suggest as well. It's not much of a visual novel, if there isn't any "visual" to look at ;) (granted that you are working on a visual novel right now). Actually o...

Re: Jobs

Currently in uni, but I will probably get kicked out. I was probably crazy for thinking I could go straight into electrical engineering with very little prior knowledge in math/physics/chemistry etc.. If I get kicked out, I'll probably end up studying English or something, at least I can speak Engli...

Okay I'm a little stuck on this part.... There is a girl, and she hung out with the boy at the park... But then it gets dark and so they decided to go home and split up.. M = heroine K = voice S = Mischa "As I was making my way out of the park, the sun had completely set. One by one I could see the ...

Re: Eternal Memories: Proofreading and Testing Thread v 0.4

With the water and rock thing, I think you can make it work if you're a bit more descriptive....

Maybe something like ( I'm no writer so bear with me):

She's now gripping it so tight, that I swear, if a rock contained any amount of water, she would squeeze it right out.

Re: would you play a vn with this art style?

While I don't like the examples that you posted, I agree with everyone else.... e.g. the 3-D models used in final fantasy etc. ... And I also think it's important that the environment actually matches the style. I think it would look awesome in a visual novel, especially if the sprites could be some...

Re: Eternal Memories: Proofreading and Testing Thread v 0.4

I notice water running from it. ???: Where did the water come from? Was she holding a bottle of water in the hand she was holding the rock in? I’ve reached homeroom. Suggestion : Since he is walking with Kimura, wouldn't it be better to say “we've reached homeroom”? Especially since they were having...

Also take a look at: http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/tutorials/Quickstart Once you get a hang of the above, you can look at the more in depth tutorial or the cookbook. ...

Re: Some writing for my first little game... Critique please

choppy in what way? Do I use too many periods in places where I should use a comma or a word that connects one sentence to another? Or... Yup. Too many periods makes me feel like the story is constantly stopping and going, lurching me forward and back when I want to cruise along. My 6th grade teach...

trying to draw a face...
Though after this attempt I'll probably go back to my loomis book... And draws much from pictures as I can, as drawing from real is still a bit too frustrating for me><
I'm having fun trying out all the different things in gimp thoughXD
