Re: Your experience with teams?

I have three different kinds of experiences, but I think they say a lot: 1) Student Project As a Game Art student, I have to produce a game once per semester and thus work together with other artists, designers and programmers. It usually kinda works. There are difficulties with some teams like too ...

Re: How to create a consistent and tasteful tone and atmosph

Well, one "easy" way to make the characters seem fit into the backgrounds is by making both. If you have different people work on them, you get what I always call the "cg-issue", being that the sprites and CGs look like entirely different people (look at "Coming Out On Top&q...

Re: Getting started - Help out a writing newbie?

Also as an advice: If this is your first VN, KEEP IT SMALL. Even short games will take a looot of text and a long time to make, if they should sound and look good. If you have a big game in mind, consider doing something smaller first. Da Vinci didn't start painting by making the Mona Lisa, so you s...

Re: Time Is Money [SciFic, ??????]

I believe you'll benefit by reading "Repent, Harlequin!" Said the Ticktockman . It's an influential science fiction story about a universe where time is a commodity. Thanks! I was quite certain that I am not first with the idea, but I couldn't really find many media that actually use time...

Time Is Money [SciFic, ??????]

Had this idea forever, but it kinda disappeared and is now currently resurfacing due to various circumstances (among them me having found a ages-old notebook with sketches and notes about it). The gist in itself is quite simple: Time is money. Literally. In the future, time is the most valuable asse...

Re: Get that thing off your chest... Now...

I just can't get the murder mechanic to work properly!
Will probably have to delete the whole script setup around it and try from the start again =_=
By the sands, I will kill each and every royal that exists in my game, no matter what D:<

WHAT IS THAT?!
He DOES have nipples?!
Pah, that's it, the Blood God is DEAD to me ;__;

Re: Without Sin [Murder Mystery, Romance][G/BxG/B] (Prototyp

Ok, so I will admit to having lost this battle to win the war later. I had that strict time frame because my university project starts now and since I need that mark more than my pride, I will leave this game now as it is. So instead of a completed game, here's a PROTOTYPE. I leave the link to the p...

Re: Without Sin [Murder Mystery, Romance][G/BxG/B] (script 1

Well, I am out of luck. The game IN ITSELF does run. But people only die in the first two days and after that miraculously survive everything but Opal going berserk. And I don't even understand why, because the variables don't change at all. So I will try and figure out the problem tonight and hopef...

Re: Without Sin [Murder Mystery, Romance][G/BxG/B] (script 1

OF COURSE I had to mess up something in the code that makes the game run in circles when dating the wrong people in the wrong order.
I will do everything I can to fix this before the day is over.
THAT THING IS GOING ONLINE TODAY, IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO!!

Re: Diverse Character Dilemma

Well, if you work in a team, then ask for their experiences to get some diversion. If you work alone, then I'd say, work on it anyway. Just be self-aware and check for humiliating stereotypes and such, since literally everyone gets raised in a way that we are prone to unconcious racism, even if we d...

I don't like that outfit.
How am I supposed to tease him for not having nipples now? :/
(jk, he looks great as does Lucifine. Can't wait to see what you do with the others)

@Arkhane Thanks, I definitely try to make it in time xD" @Zelan Thank you! Good luck in trying to get that one ;) @Schtranzen I also like that one, but only a few of the CGs are with that style. For one because not everything could be really clear with just shillouettes, I felt and also because...

Re: Without Sin [Murder Mystery, Romance][G/BxG/B] (script 1

I totally forgot to update, didn't I? Haha Well, have a look at some of the CGs (they're non-spoilery). Due to the strict time table and university, they are sadly not of the quality that I would have enjoyed (I had even considered making them look like church windows), but alas, thats the fate of s...

Re: RPG Plot-Advice?

First of all, the obligatory: Have you ever worked on a project of that scale? Six different stories? That is MASSIVE. Aside from that: I would say, the key is to have an overarching plot. As weird as it sounds, but "Sims Medieval" comes to mind. There is one general "plot" (the ...
