Raj's sprites are just about done! Gotta change the overlays with the arms/hands... http://i1356.photobucket.com/albums/q732/Green-Glasses/C%20and%20C/WIP/raj%20sprite%20thumb_zpsof1bfsf3.jpg I am now finished with all of the main characters! I'll be working on the minor ones now. I need to figure o...

I just finished! I am impressed! I can hardly put one VN together and you got this out in such a short time with such an engaging story and characters! Ife and Manaem were great- they were pretty solid characters. I liked the relationship between the both of them too. The Calikoh is also a super int...

^Beat me to it.

I second on recommending to read the thread by obscura - specifically this post: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewto ... 42#p246657 (a long one, but if you're serious about crowdfunding, definitely worth a look)

"Above all, video games are meant to just be one thing: Fun for everyone." - Satoru Iwata As a huge Nintendo fan for years, this statement is something that holds dear to me - he just got it . And maybe there are developers who wouldn't believe the same thing - some make games solely to e...

Thank you, Googaboga! Nothing much to report this week other than wrapping up Raj's sprite. After that will be a big sigh of relief - that means all of the MCs will be completed, and I can move on to minor characters (who only have one outfit each...seriously, the multiple outfits is what has been t...

Sorry it took me so long! I had a draft of this saved and I never got around to writing up my thoughts! OTL Anyway, I enjoyed this demo even more than the first! My feedback: I love Gregor and he might be my favorite character so far (love the grumpy guys). I'm actually interested in learning a litt...

Getting there. The sprites are taking me ages because they have so many outfits. Next VN I get to, everyone will only have one outfit. Lessons learned!

Hi Hazel-bun! I'm definitely liking the variety and diversity of your characters - it really makes them stand out! I think a helpful exercise would be to try drawing heads at different angles? Some examples would be: head-perspective.jpg Head_Perspective_Chart_by_yuumei.jpg It's good practice and go...

Working on Raj's new sprite..he might be my favorite one to draw now :3

3) what is attractive about the 'looks good' version what can't be added to the anatomically correct one? or, what can I do to the anatomically correct one to give it the quality I like in the 'looks good' version? Pretty much this. There are many quotes in the drawing world that pretty much sum up...

You cannot take images from Wikipedia as those are usually credited in the footnotes of those pages/entries. Wikimedia is the free image database. Don't get the two confused!

As a general rule, you should never use an image you find online unless you have the permission of the artist/photographer/creator, even if your work is non-commercial. There are plenty of resources that you can use for free, like Wikimedia Commons , but read their guide on reusing their images (as ...

^Thank you, Laluune! I've made a steady recovery, so it's back to work! Note: I fixed the links in the first posts of the thumbnail images. All of Barn's sprites are complete. I think he turned out much better than the sketch: http://i1356.photobucket.com/albums/q732/Green-Glasses/C%20and%20C/WIP/ba...

^Agreed. I guess what can be said all around is that KNs have to go a step further than traditional VNs.

Apparent mediocrity is unlikely to be tolerated. But...isn't Umineko a kinetic novel? And even with its first version where the original sprite work was poor, Umineko was wildly successful. Then again, I don't know how marketing strategies went about. I'm adding that I don't think there's a one-way...
