Magical Kusoge『 魔法のクソゲ』(NaNoReno 2016)

#1 Post by Furohoriku » Fri Mar 25, 2016 7:19 pm

Hello LSF

I'm Furohoriku, nice to meet you. I'm new here, and even newer at coding. But I've been lurking for about 2 years. Thanks to everyone on here, I've been slowly learning the ways of Renpy. But it seems difficult unless you actually do something with that knowledge. So I did an 8hr game jam and resulted with a playable visual novel for NanoReno 2016
I go more into the game jam experience here: http://www.dynasoul.net/

The project's name Magical Kusoge (魔法のクソゲ) is a play on words due to the fact that I purposefully wanted to make a gag VN.

The most important thing is I learned:
- how to code faster
- how to efficiently draw my own sprites & what goes into creating proper bgs.
- how to make tracks that work for a game environment
- how to customize UI

The plot is a romance between an inner city thug and a moe/lolita witch. It runs for about 20 minutes (10 min/route).
It's rated R for profane language, there is no sex, violence or blood.

Tristan
He's tough, grew up in the projects but recently moved to a better district. He puts on fronts to stay cool among his peers. Deep down he's really just a nerd who likes action games and otaku culture. His mother wants him to get educated so he can have a better life.

Roza
She's sweet, and values Lolita and cute aesthetics. Secretly she's a witch. She's got a strict family, they want her to marry into wealth. She really likes tough, provincial men...

Noboru
Tristan's friend, lately it seems he has a lot on his mind. He grew up in the projects, but he wants to improve his life. There's more to him than people think there is.

It's my first VN so If you play it please let me know what you think!
I'm just here to learn how to code better and hopefully with the right critiques I can make a better game in the future.

Congratulations on finishing!! I'm still in the middle of making my own NaNo16 game, but I'll try this one when I can -- the art, as I've seen it from the previews, looks really cool!

Hey, I downloaded the game to play and received a message stating that the game couldn't start. The log is included in this post. Hopefully it's an easy fix - I'm interested in trying this game out :)

Can't open it either. I think it has something to do with the icon.

This was a fun VN :) I really liked the art style (amazing that it was all made in 8hours!!)

I just read the opening post and realised there is another route! Hehe, I will have to try that out :)

I just wanted to leave a message on this thread to let people know what to do in order to get the game to load - just move the .ico file into the 'game' folder - then it runs just fine :D

(it should be obvious which file is the ico file, but if not just google how to 'show file name extensions' for your operating system)
