Devil's Betrayal [Fantasy] [RPG] [Battle]

[kittykatlover]

Devil's Betrayal

Based on Dungeons and Dragons and Baldur's Gate

Thank you to Manga for correcting my spelling. Twice.

Your kingdom has made a deal with the devils
Unbelievable Power
and devil guards--
in exchange for the sacrifice of a child every month
and a portal where demons can come and go from.

Never trust a devil.

The devils have betrayed your kingdom
and are attacking.
You, the only heir to the throne, must be protected at all costs--
at least until you reach age 18,
when the devil's power will become yours.
Your birthday is in a week...
can you survive the devils attacks until then?

Sounds interesting, so far. Always been a fan of RPGs and fantasies, so should be interesting seeing how that works out for you. I'll have a look and see if I can spot the bug, but hopefully someone can beat me to the punch and give you, you know, the correct answer.

Also, psst. You mean Baldur's Gate. And Dungeons needs no apostraphe. [/grammar and spelling nazism]

[kittykatlover]

^-^ Thanks!
Shall edit immediately. Thanks for spotting that.

[junna]

oooh...D&D! can I love you? I'll be watching you~

[kittykatlover]

Thanks. ^-^

oooh...D&D! can I love you? I'll be watching you~

D&D is cool. I ask a similar question.

^-^ Thanks!
Shall edit immediately. Thanks for spotting that.

So close, my friend, but it is in fact Baldur's Gate. Don't worry, we'll get there in the end.

Oh, and tell me how that tileset thing goes. Always wanted to try that thing out since I first saw it.

What? I didn't get it right? Noo! :p Corrections shall happen soon.

Well, since i haven't exactly gotten the tileset thing working yet (I think that it may be what's causing the bug.), I'm probably not worthy of explaining. ^-^" Someone else might be better.

One reason that you may have the error is that some of your indentation is wrong. The error screen really didn't give much to go off of, so I'm not sure what else might be wrong though.

I don't know if that will help with your error, but it will make things easier in the long run.

It fixed the error! Thank you so much. ^-^

Devil's Betrayal

Based on Dungeons and Dragons and Baldur's Gate

We did it, kitty. We did it.

Just stopping to embrace the moment here.

...

Anyway, looking at the art. Can you maybe get bigger pictures? Unless that's your game's resolution, in which case God help us all. It'd also be nice to see some of the characters, they tend to be more indicative and interesting than the backgrounds. Generally, anyway.

*pauses*
*grins*

Anyways, about the art. I actually don't like doing visuals until the end of the story,because I hate that step, honestlyand the pictures are (at the moment) there for showing scene changes only. I should probably work on finding better ones. Or try to make my own. "^-^

[kittykatlover]

I've been trying to choose between doing my own art and using others (free work or recruiting artists)
So, I have a question:
Do you think this art is good enough for the typical visual novel?
*in attached file*
Oh, and it isn't fully shaded, just an FYI.

It's a good start, but I'd say that it could use a bit of fixing. It isn't, however, godawful, which is more than I can usually say about my own artwork, and perfectly good for a first visual novel and for one who is focusing on writing.

Okay:
I'd move her skirt up a bit.
One of her legs is going outside of her shoething and into the other.
She's a bit skinny, especially when you compare her waist and her legs.
The hair's uneven, but that might be deliberate.
More pedanticly, her chin.
Her arms don't really *fit* together.
I think her neck's a bit long.
Why, it lacks shading!

Note: I am notorious for giving bad advice.

[kittykatlover]

Since I'm not going to be using this costume for my VN, but I did make a template out of it (after I updated it), I'll be changing the thing that I am going to be putting in my VN. Shaded, I think? I know nothing about shading... "^-^
So... ya.
Thanks for the advice! Does this look better?
*The skirt looks odd, do you know why it does?

ANNOUNCMENT:
I'm doing NaNoWriMo, so progress on this project during November will be... umm... slow. I will still likely progress (mostly on art) but not very fast. "^-^
