Re: </reality> [Sci-Fi][Fantasy][Philosophical][Light GxB/Bx

@Zelan - thanks so much for sharing the details on how you felt about the character sheets. It's really, super informative to hear your reactions. We'll definitely be working on updating the character sheets to be a little more interesting, and try to minimize things like Jacob falling too perfectly...

Re: The Devil's Broker [Action/Magic/Guns/Intrigue]

Hey there, just wanted to let you know that I am really loving the background work you are doing on this project. Gorgeous stuff. Especially the moody night-time ones. But the dining room is also great. Awesome job. What do you think of the premise? Is a story focused on action and intrigue interest...

Re: </reality> [Sci-Fi][Fantasy][Philosophical][Light GxB, B

@Zelan, @NaiDriftlin, I just updated the story description in the first post! If you have time/are interested, I'd be curious to hear what you think of the new description. Is it more enticing? @Zelan - thank you for the feedback!! It does. It should be noted that I consume media like there's no tom...

Re: List of Visual Novel Genres/Types/Terms?

Thanks for the confirmation that I'm not crazy to be using both tags, Zelan and Sundownkid! Yes, that would be correct. Though I think BxG or GxB implies some degree of non-optional romance for each route, where, say, a girl might be uncomfortable playing through it if it was BxG, and vice versa. I ...

Re: </reality> [Sci-Fi][Fantasy][Philosophical][Light GxB, B

I have no way of knowing your story, but I was suggesting you might be unintentionally telegraphing common Sci-Fi tropes with how vacant he looks. Like dystopian style human conditioning. Or "he was actually a robot the whole time." Aha! I see what you mean now. Thanks for the clarificati...

Re: List of Visual Novel Genres/Types/Terms?

Wow, thanks everyone, for all the information!! This is so interesting and helpful! Something that can be confusing if you're not initially aware of it is the difference between BxG and GxB. The one that comes first is the gender of the player character (i.e. otomes are GxB). It's a little thing, bu...

List of Visual Novel Genres/Types/Terms?

Hi everyone! [disclaimer] I searched for a topic addressing this question, but couldn't find anything. Sorry if this post is redundant! Please direct me to the right place. :) [/disclaimer] I'm a long-time writer/artist, but I'm new to the visual novel scene (started my first VN this summer). It's b...

Re: Silence In Daylight

Hey there! So I checked out your demo, and I have some feedback for you: 1. Writing "Promises" - The demo largely focuses on introducing the school, and how it is a unique and special place. However, that alone is only mildly intriguing. If you really want to pull me in and make me care ab...

Re: Mirt [Mystery|Drama|Thriller|Magical realism]

I would argue with number one. It's true that his quote is casual by comparison, but that could be intentional. It depends on what you guys (the developers) had intended for his character. Yeah, I agree with you on that. If the casual tone is an intentional part of his character, go for it! However...

Re: The Stroke of Midnight [Mystery Thriller, Light BxB]

Congrats on the demo release! It's definitely cool to see a detective VN in the works. The character art is great. However, there seems to be a consistency issue that you might want to think about while you're still early in production (if you're not already addressing it). I.e. the little sister is...

Re: Mirt [Mystery|Drama|Thriller|Magical realism]

Thank you! I still need feedback, every correction would be really helpful. In that case, here you go: 1. In Mark's quote, his speech is too casual, compared to the other quotes. It should be either "What are you gonna do when it all comes out?" (still somewhat casual), "What are you...

Re: Without a Voice [Yuri Jam 2016]

This looks lovely. The character design is beautiful - aesthetically appealing, while also nicely indicative of their personalities. The logo and title are also intriguing to me.

Good luck with the jam!
