Re: VN looking for feedback!

That's an interesting take on the culture thing, making me all the more curious. Good luck on your current project, (I gave it a quick look through and was pretty pleased) and I hope it goes well for you. If you ever want somebody to bounce ideas off of I'd be more than happy to help

Re: VN looking for feedback!

1. Storyline: From the short synopsis, I think themes potential here. I'm curious how the different factions and the whole exorcism thing will play in to the romance bits. 2.Demo: Personally, I'd be fine with the first day/common route so I could get to know the characters and setting a bit better. ...

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

@MomoiroGirl I've been there many times myself, its not a good time. Especially as someone with depression and a disdain towards antidepresents, it happens a lot. But if nothing else there are many people on this forum (myself included) who would be more than happy to talk if you're down or lonely. ...

Re: Visual Novel Dating sim without people/humans!! Just MEC

On top of the differing manufacturers, they could be differentiated by how recent the model is, too. All the outdated ones could be the "lower-class citizens" living in a robo-ghetto junkyard like in iRobot. Going with the kingdom idea, it would be an interesting dynamic depending on the s...

Re: Visual Novel Dating sim without people/humans!! Just MEC

I'm getting some PSO vibes from these sketches and I love it. I feel like even if it isn't just a gag, it could still work though the audience would be more limited to hose who just like sick robots. Heck, even if it isn't an original idea, mixing in some ai existentialism would add that much more t...

Re: The dragons are coming OELVN

Its kinda difficult for me to offer an opinion on this. I see the premise... but that's about it. Who are the characters? What kind of world is this in specific? What genre are you aiming for? I can't really give you much when I don't know what kind of story it is. When you describe the idea as &quo...

Re: Ludum Dare anyone?

I don't bring much to the table as is, I'm afraid. I can write, do a little art, and some very basic coding and composition.
Its not specifically a VN jam, right? I didn't look too deep but I didn't really see any VNs linked to it. Is there a decent audience there for EVNs?

Re: Visual Novels for children?

I feel like the difficulty in this is more about finding vns appropriate for kids. As someone who despised reading when I was younger, any sort of book with interactivity caught my eye pretty quick. However, some of the stuff on the market for this genre is... rough to say the least.

Re: Why so many unfinished VN?

The longer this thread goes on the more hype I feel for this hypothetical jam. I know that a fair number of newbies, including myself, see jams as a chance to get in there in a sense, and keeping it shorter than a month would definitely make them shorten the scope of their starting projects. Plus, a...

Re: How many CG's should you have in a game?

I agree with rossfellow. Cgs don't really have a set number, and personally, I prefer cgs for scenes that are special to the story. Not necesarilly unique stuff, but rather the climactic moments where simple sprites don't cut it. On the other hand, I get tired of cgs that exist purely for the sake o...

Re: How to make a good "you" protagonist

I always thought that the game Persona 4 was a good example of a "you" protag. Maybe its just me, but the instant the mc starts having their own opinions, I stop being able to slap my face on theirs, even if I agree with their views. The most reliable way to the put the player in the MC's ...
