Anyone interested in writing for a Pokemon galge?

#1 Post by Guest »

Hi again, Lemma Soft!
Since we originally posted out thread back a few months ago, progress has been going steadily. We've managed to get a large chunk of sprites and backgrounds done, and our programmer has thrown together a customized system.
Recently, however, work seems to have slowed to a standstill. We kind of came to a realization that our current, incomplete (less than 5%), script was terrible (embarrassing humour, inconsistent pacing, badly written melodrama- the works), and that none of us have any particular affinity to writing. I doubt it would have ever been completed....
So, erm, we're recruiting a writer. Preferably someone who's familiar with the Pokemon franchise, and willing to write under the following guidelines:
- Should take place in Palette town/ Kanto region
- Should feature at least May/Haruka, Misty/Kasumi, and Dawn/Hikari as heriones

....but apart from those, the sky's the limit! It can be silly, short, long, whatever! You just give the orders, and we'll do all the art, music, backgrounds and programming!
If I don't get any offers, we'll just throw this out the window and make a moé loli yaruge. Which would be a real shame, as we've been working on and off this project for over a year, this world lacks a Pokemon dating sim!
Some of the art samples:
May/Haruka

Misty/Kasumi

Dawn/Hikari

If you're at all interested, reply to this thread or PM me!
...Oh, and don't be worried if you don't know much about Dawn or the new generation stuff. Wikipedia is your friend! >_>;

Likewise.. ^^ The art is just amazing :D

Considering the H and erogue wave the forum has been having I wouldn't suprise if this turned into a erogue dating sim XD *laughs*

Jokes aside... I wish someone would pick this up.. unfortenately I only played Pokemon till silver ^^; (LOOOONG TIME AGO)... so yeah I'm way outdated to help ^^;

Yes, I'd like to write for it.
Thanks for letting it be Kanto!

Merits:

A near-completion VN script

Big collection of pokemon stuff

Willing to sit hours and hours in front of a TV for backround research.

Good at making plots if you don't already have one.

So can I do it?
script is 85% done.
Title is now "Running through water"
and will hopefully stay that way.
Need a poem/lyric?
I'll write one for ya!

Wish I could volunteer, but I haven't watched Pokemon since the first season.

However, I think the fan-community still produces some good fanfic writers that you might be able to recruit. I don't know where they hang out, but if it's eroge you're making the AGNPH archive website should still be around somewhere on the web...

Damn, Sailor Kitty beat me to it! Oh well, still an interesting idea, looking forward to seeing what you all do with it!

Question: I'm not familiar with what exactly galge covers - it is going to be all ages right?

If this is H it should be in the Let's Hentai Hentai subforum.

I'm experienced in H-writing, but unfortunately the Pokemon universe is foreign to me (I don't watch mainstream anime).

I really do hope the writer(s) you have nail it down. Ironically, in most projects, its the writer that's no problem -- it's having the art, music, and programming that is. :wink:

Re: background... by any chance did you use any program that has the word "Painter" in it?

Galge = Girl game. It's just a general term in Japan that encompasses most sub genres, sort of like the term visual novel is over here.

Combination of Painter and Photoshop... I'll try to make a tutorial or at least compile a list of tips sometime in the future. orz

Thanks for all the Interest / Support :D !
