Re: A Digital Ghost Story [Mostly Kinetic][Sci-fi/Drama]

Thanks for answering my question, I understand everything now and I like this story even more than before. Actually, I don't quite know how to answer this question, because I'm new here too and I never asked for help with art or music. But since I'm a little artist, I would ask you the personality ...

Re: Game Developers Conference

One thing I'm curious about (and this may be just a tad bit off-topic), is how big of a presence do visual novels as a game category have at GDC? I would imagine not much, but is it something that the industry is at least aware of? Are developers from big studios going to be like WTF is a visual no...

Re: Dischan Dysfunctional Systems Kickstarter

According to that, it'll be 19.600 CAD for art, which seems to be 17.600-ish USD for two episodes. Imagining it's 1/6 for sprites, 2/6 for Cgs and 3/6 for Bgs, that'd be: $3250~ for sprites ($1625 per episode, if they don't share sprites) $5850~ for CGs ($2925 per episode) $8800~for BGs ($4400 per ...

Re: How to justify the little sister route?

But on a more serious note, beside incest may cause problem for your next offspring, I don't really see any other reason why it's such a big deal? Well as someone who has an imouto of his own, it all comes down to the dignity of family love. Romantic love between siblings destroys the sibling love ...

Re: How to justify the little sister route?

Guess I'll address the elephant in the room. What is the appeal of incest, as a story device? Sci-fi allows us to dream of future possibilities and exploration. Mystery challenges our powers of observation. Horror allows us to experience fear in a safe environment. But incest...? If we know the rea...

Re: Dischan Dysfunctional Systems Kickstarter

Well it should be noted that the pledge is in CAD; and what they are looking for (at the current rate of exchange) is equivalent to $44k. And that is to finance two games. To be perfectly honest, I don't like the new art as much. It's not nearly as sharp. But whatever. I genuinely wish them luck, an...

Re: A Digital Ghost Story [Mostly Kinetic][Sci-fi/Drama]

Hmmmmm... I have to admit that I didn't understand everything because of my bad (VERY BAD) english, but i think i have understood the principal concepts. I really like the plot, very original and unusual. But are you going to focus the story into the feelings between the Ghost and the player or int...
