Re: Making VN Trailers
You lost me at "the sites". Those words need some clarification. It is as if you suddenly injected the word "elephant" into your montage without any explanation. It seems you have all the basics down though. Sorry about that. >< I started the trailer with the "on a journey&...

Re: Amount of realistic profanity in VNs
The genre and setting your story uses is also very important in relation to the levels of profanity in your VN. For example, The Wolf Among Us (Episode 1) is a Detective Noir and mainly takes place in a rough neighbourhood, so there's quite a lot of swearing in it. And I went in expecting it. You co...

How to Find an Audience
Say you know someone who has just made their first visual novel. What sort of advice/tips would you give them to help their visual novel reach out and find people who would be interested in playing it?

Tips on Writing Comedy?
I'm looking for some tips on writing humor; not just for comedies, but advice on writing humor for stories that have more serious/dark tones as well.
Also, what are your favourite types of comedy? (examples: dialogue humor, slapstick, black comedy, parody, deadpan, wordplay, etc.)

Re: Can't write a novel.....
I don't know if there's a perfect piece of advice for everyone. I've heard some writers say that they like to just start writing and see where the story goes, while other writers like to brainstorm/plan out the plot before they begin writing the story. I think it's good to balance between the two te...

Making VN Trailers
Can anyone give me any tips on making a trailer for a visual novel I've made? I'm specifically wondering about: - What (free, online) programs I can use for screen recording? - Can that screen recorder also record any music/sound effects/voice acting that my VN plays as I'm recording? - What kind of...

Re: Line Between "Informative" and "Preaching"
I think a good tip to avoid turning people off from a story with strong themes/messages is to allow the story to show both sides of the argument, rather than just focus on the side you're on or the side you want the audience to be on. Also, having the characters in the story who are against your mes...

Can Novelty-made VNs be played on Mac?
Question: Can visual novels made using Novelty (the Visual Novel Maker) be played on Mac and/or Linux?
Specifically, I heard that the Novelty program can only be used on Windows, but I'm wondering if completed VNs made using Novelty can be played on Mac and/or Linux, and not just Windows.
