Re: [WIP] Second Semester

In the iPhone market, you can pay $0.99 and get an incredible 3D game from a professional game studio, so no matter how great of a game mine is, it would seem like crap comparatively, so I'd rather fly under the radar. Yeah, that is a problem. It's also one of the reasons why I thought getting in o...

Re: [WIP] Second Semester

In the iPhone world, the free app is essentially your best/only tool for advertising your game, do you think this will work? That's an interesting idea. The only thing that I'd be concerned about with these specially-crafted free versions is: How much effort and resources will it take away from the...

Re: [WIP] Second Semester

I for one, am impressed. To be honest, what really got my attention with VNs was the development of the App Store. The Japanese have their keitai and love to play their games on them. Americans...not so much. But I've always thought that the iPhone/Touch were the closest analog to the Japanese cell ...

First person pitfalls

So, I'm pretty new to the concept of VNs. I've done plenty of writing in my day, but not once have I ever had an occasion to write from a 1st person perspective (well, okay, maybe I DID...like in a 10th grade English class, or something similar).

Re: Guestbook

Just registered and figured it'd be rude of me not to at least say hello. I've worked on some amateur animation projects, webcomics and have some published one-offs and comic strips. And out of all those media, I have to say that VNs have really caught my attention of late. The concept intrigues me ...
