The Dandelion Girl: Don't You Remember Me?

About 7 years ago, I (along with a variety of other anonymous users) created a short game based on Robert F. Young's short story, "The Dandelion Girl". It was decently successful, and apparently gathered enough of a following to be translated into several other languages. About a year or two ago I decided to remake it. Unfortunately, the original artist didn't show much interest, so it ended up being more of a revamp and a rewrite. The sprites and CGs are the same but all of the menus have been remade, the script is rewritten, and there's an additional scene added which makes use of a CG the artist provided which I never got around to using.

I'm posting it here because, well, there aren't a whole lot of EVN communities. I'd also like to give people who haven't read this story yet a chance to have their first experience with it to be polished and professional-looking. I'll be working on more things like this in the future, but that's another story (no pun intended).

Anyway, I really hope you enjoy it. I had fun producing it. It won't take up too much of your time, though it is considerably longer than the original.

Hello,

I followed the link and have so far been unsuccessful in extracting the .rar file. I don't know whether its just my incompetency or some sort of download failure or what. I am looking forward to reading your work, though, so I encourage you to re-re-release the game.

Also: I read the short story after my failed attempts to get the files. It's... touching. I think. But I still have some cynicism over the tenderness the two have. It is very genuine but at the same time, it is strangely manufactured. Out of nothingness. But anyways. I would be interested in seeing how you illustrate the story, set the tone, portray the wife, etc.

Hm, a 'rar' file?

I guess this means it's build for MS-Windows only?

Unfortunately it is Windows-only. I'm not sure how to create an apple-friendly edition. If you're having difficulties with the RAR file, try downloading Winrar. It also unzips ZIP files.

Ah... Dandelion Girl... how time flies... I can clearly remember the first time it's WIP drawings first appeared on the internet...

I believe I have the honor and distinction of making the first Fanart for it... drawn on the post in front of 4chan and yes... it's totally not worksafe... :mrgreen:

And now that the atmosphere has turned really awkward... I am going to do my usual disappearing magic trick...
