Re: Difficulties with titles and Characters...

I think you're all overthinking it a little. Your story needs to be good, ultimately. The title itself needs to serve only three purposes: - Make people want to find out more about it - Be easy to remember and memorable - Allow readers to associate that title with the contents of the work It really ...

Re: Bisexuality in VNs

2. If you're scared of people rejecting your VN just because there's one single and optional gay route, well then they can go screw themselves! You don't need buyers/fans like that. You're better off without catering to those kinds of folks and besides, there's plenty of 100% hetero otomes they can...

Re: Ping-ponging points of view

Multiple viewpoints are a staple of traditional literature, so I wouldn't say it's a bad idea at all, even if the medium of Visual Novels is a different to traditional literature. Not to mention, they're a great way to keep the story moving along, as you can use switching to move from one exciting s...

Re: In Orbit [GxG Otome] [Romance/Sci-fi]

I would just like to point out that the lackluster graphic design of the first post in no way represents the quality of the final product. It represents my overeagerness to post this thread before I had made any kind of plan for it at all. Speaking of, the graphic designer has been MIA again. Okay, ...

Re: Episodes Versus Full Length VNs

I think Episodic works best when you have a set up that allows for "sub-stories" to be started up and resolved within an episode, while slowly developing an overarching plotline.

Re: In Orbit [GxG Otome] [Romance/Sci-fi]

Is it bad I find him really attractive--?! Of course not, he's the main character after all. In writing news: Now, I know I could probably write 30 000 words in each route that all basically amount to: "they cuddle and maybe kiss a little" ...but I'm just not that kind of writer and this ...

I realized I haven't posted the fullbody character images! Surely you wanted to see them! Guess I'll have to make up for lost time by.... posting them one at a time, slowly.

Re: Flip/Switch [gender-frick *x* romance, multiple protags]

Seems like this has just become one my favorite upcoming VN's on my personal list, not only for its tackling of a hard-to-touch subject, but also just for that fresh artstyle and promising romance of itself. Also the gender identity issues thing may secretly be striking a personal chord. Don't tell ...

Needed: Artist/Graphic designer [REALLY SMALL JOB]

Right now I find myself in need of an artist or graphic designer for a small yet important task that's come up for my current project, In Orbit. It's a fairly simple task, but I don't want to distract my main artists from those all-important sprites and backgrounds. For those of you who don't know w...

Background images are coming in nicely this season! Such a bountiful harvest, I thought I might share. http://gliese.vnovel.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/IO_cor.jpg In writing news, I've been going around refining the choices and flags a bit. Word of warning: I do not play by the menu: "Visit ...

Re: Voiced Visual Novel?

I'm the kind of guy who watches anime subbed over dubbed whenever possible. Unless it's a very unique case, a lot of the dubbed works I see just sound sort of ridiculous. Any harem anime you watch is just sort of.. embarrassing when you hear it in your native tongue. For some reason, when I watch i...
