I want to play this just to look at the artwork!

Nice to see this is still being worked on.

Love your art Pinlin. That music illustration is gorgeous.

You die if you don't play.

It's not the same for each day. Day's I go to my day job (4 days a week) - I get up early and do some practice art (just in a sketchbook) for 90mins. Makes me feel I've achieved something for me for the day and puts me in a good mood [although it's not always easy to get myself out of my nice warm b...

Staying motivated can be hard. I was working on my current VN, was finished the writing except for two endings (around 40,000 words), had commissioned and received the sprites, was painting up my backgrounds when I lost my motivation. Lost it because I wasn't happy with the plot as it moved through ...

I bought Requiescence and enjoyed it very much. Looking forward to buying this one too when it's finished.

Maybe you're not starting in the right place. Best place to start is where the situation (status quo) permanently changes for the main character. Maybe that's actually at the meeting stage rather than the set-up stage and you can handle relevant information from the set-up stage in a flashback.

Do you have an outline sorted out. List your key events in the order they occur. As for the 'filler' or linking sections. A linking section can be very short - just a couple of sentences.

Try putting 10-15 references on the page and take a little bit from each of them to design something new.

@Esquisse Your art is looking lovely. If you haven't done backgrounds for a visual novel before, remember that the sprite needs to sit on top of it and you may need to change the perspective to accommodate that (I always have a sprite on a layer so I can check). Thanks for the comments on my backgro...

1. Art [6] I'm with Late White Rabbit on this one. I'll look at the art before reading anything. I need to like the look of the sprite art and if there is also original background art then I'll sit up and take notice. 2. Genre/theme [5] If it's a genre that really interests me, I'll take more notice...

Forgot about my personal art thread. I've picked up my visual novel project again and am continuing with the background art (started it nearly 2 yrs ago - and I've changed how I do things since then, so it does look a little different). Really like how the park bg turned out, but I think I'd struggl...

An apartment at night this time.

Glad to see this is still being worked on.

A day and night street scene for my visual novel. I've gotten a little faster since I started, but I want to get even faster at producing my art. http://orig05.deviantart.net/f50f/f/2017/158/5/c/street_2_night_by_lesleigh63-dbbunfx.jpg http://orig05.deviantart.net/f9a4/f/2017/158/0/9/street_day_vers...
