Notions: First Movement

#1 Post by J-chan » Mon Aug 31, 2009 12:10 am

It's fairly short and simple, but my first completed game is now available!
It's actually just the precursor to a complete edition of Notions. Right now, it's a short kinetic novel, but the final release will have dialogue trees and different paths/endings. It'll also include more scenes (of course), updated backgrounds (I switched to stock photos over hand-drawn BGs partway through), and extras like fanart!
(Incidentally, I'm looking for artists to contribute guest art/fanart for the final version!)

Image

Notions is the story of a young man named Arthur who finds himself feeling lost. His world becomes even more confusing when he finds a suicide note on a telephone pole, and is reluctantly drawn into the life of a girl named Elaine. This story of two lost souls is set in modern-day Boston, and is just a little bit cheesy.

See the website and download the game here!

I'd love to know what you think of it! Since it's my first, I'm especially attentive to any advice and opinions you guys can offer. I hope you enjoy it! <3

Very, very nice piece. I'm usually not much for VNs without choices, but I rather liked this one. But I do have to say the kiss thing was a tad cliche, even if it was adorable. =P

Also, the main character is so cute. XD

Anyways, I eagerly await the completed edition. :)
Currently in the pre-production stages of creating the VN Visit to Nowhere, a moderately dark modern fairytale. In progress thread will be created once out of the pre-production phase. =D

Plotting: 25%
Concept art: 80%
Demo: 50%

Hello again~ Due to a variety of causes, namely college and work, the full version of Notions: FM sort of dropped off my radar. But I was recently struck by inspiration, and I'm going to continue this project! Having replayed this release and cringed at some of the art and backgrounds, as well as the shortness of the game, I'll definitely be making a new version~ And I want it to become a part of a larger project I've been thinking about for a long time! :3 Nothing is set down for certain yet, but I just wanted to let everyone know that there will be more to come~ I'll be starting a new WIP thread once I have a better idea of what's next!

Ah whoops, thanks for pointing that out! I forgot that the old link was outdated. I've updated the first post with the right URL, which is http://notionsgame.webs.com.
