Re: 12 Days of Christmas: Interviews with VN Characters

Your art-style reminds me of a time before time, when machines spoke a strange version of machine code. Whats your source of inspiration?

Re: Is there a way to make an unlockable character?

I believe you have to set up variables, then use conditional menus. Like this. menu: "Buy her a box of white panties": $ gift = "panties" me "Here, please wrap it up. It's a special present." "Buy her a cute hat": $ gift = "hat" me "I'll take th...

Re: What was your first VN made like?

A short story; with crude language, violence, death, an insanely idiotic player character, and a love interest with the power to end the world with a snap of her fingers.

Re: How to credit yourself?

I guess I'd use whatever pseudonym I use at the moment.

Not only it prevents you from going down the slippery slope of greed, it also helps you keep your privacy!

Re: Help needed for Copyright Issues with my game

I think using copyright characters in your games is okay as long as you don't make any money from it. And yeah, you can declare usage of Nintendo resources under fair use (parody) law.

Lemme know if you need me to look into this.

Re: What to do after 'bad end' endings

How about a epilogue describing the consequences of the player's actions?

Re: Music while writing?

Is it weird that I listen to stuff like this, this and this when I code/write for games?

Re: Paying Underaged Writers?

You're not doing anything that under-aged writers aren't supposed to legally do, so you should be fine. It's no different from paying a kid to mow your lawn or shovel some snow. I could be wrong, though. The world's become more of a nanny-state that I remember. The question is; how will the recipien...

Re: Copyright?

As long as you don't earn anything from it, and credit the original authors properly (Inspired by XXXXXXXYYYYYX, by ZZZZZZ), you can do whatever you like with it. That's what I think.

Re: Animated Cutscenes in a Visual Novel?

It depends on how you pace your cutscenes, the artwork of the cutscene and how relevant they are to your story. For example, imagine two characters watching a space rocket lift off. The dialog goes like this. [Conversation] [Conversation] [Conversation] [Movie cut scene] [the standard shuttle launch...

Re: Teamwork... does it work?

Believe in your skill. If you don't, who will? Remain confident and remember; no matter what happens, you will always feel rising pride when you look back on your work. That's step 1. A team with lousy communication and coordination is worse than a lone-wolf operator. Remember to have open communica...

Re: Space Opera in VNs

Space Opera, huh? How do you plan to handle cutscenes, and action scenes?. Animation, off-game video, or in-game dialogue?
