School Fortune [BxB][Demo][quiz-page4] On hold!

[MiSi]

Seems like Corvinian is the new number-one guy

[try10]

Corvinian huh?
Too bad MR LIGHTLESS IS THE BEST!!!!!!
OH AND HOW COULD I FORGET STEVE HE IS ONE BAD ASS SEME

[MiSi]

Heh, heh, sure Steve is... but even he isn't like he may seem

(to be honest: the only ones without real secrets are Marek and Corvinian... ._.)
and you seem to have guessed, which guy gets the real ending

[Vynuxys]

Corvinian is the top guy? Funny, I like him the least :c. My favourites are Steve, Gereon and Furio :'D. I also like Yuri and Azrael :3

Furio's 'scared' face is the cutest thing, but his smiling face is /the/ cutest thing /ever/. Seriously, he's so adorable. I also feel sorry for him; Steve, keep your paws off! D:<

And Yuri was a huge surprise. When I got his path at the end of the demo, it was like he was a completely different guy! I love that twist, it really made me want to play the full game right there and then xD.

One thing I did notice though, and would suggest changing/tweaking the game around it a little:

When I was on Yuri's path, somewhere in mid-October, I went over to the lake after class, since that's where he always is. An event played out, in which Furio wanted to share the place with Yuri, and then I could choose which one to push into the river (that's so mean btw! XD go MC, you meanie~), and obviously since I was after Yuri, I chose to push Furio. He ran away crying because I ruined his drawings.

After that, in the evening, nothing happened. The next day I chose to stay in my room and watch him draw, and he seemed normal as ever. Nothing changed.

Then I played Furio's path and did the exact opposite; I pushed Yuri into the river. He claimed we're no longer friends like he thought.. and then he was all shy and nice and everything with me the next day. I realized this also happens with other characters/events, i.e. when someone gets sick, it never gets mentioned, or something happens but it doesn't seem to affect the gameplay at all.

I would suggest doing some reaction-based thingies! So when you push Furio, he's going to be mad/upset (whichever is more IC according to you, of course) with you and argue/ignore you completely, even when you talk to him if you bump into him. Same with Yuri and all the other character-events.

Just a thought, but it would add so much realism and it would seem a little less awkward.

Anyway, how is the script going? I'm still playing the game trying to get everyone, though I'll leave Corvy and Jero for the last, ahaha.

[MiSi]

Well... no... Corvinian's not the main guy... haha but maybe... you can guess?

About your suggestion with changing the moods according to your decisions... heh, let's say: I already thought about that, but it would be way too much programming for me (and too difficult...?). Just wait until you see the script ._. It's already slightly confusing and complicated

(for example: adding darker Azrael-sprites for every month, since he's changing colour)

But maybe I can change some things... just thought about a way how to do it... (when will I finish this game? In two years? Oh my... ._.)


Maybe some statistics here:

Code: Select all

The game contains 11,293 screens of dialogue.
These screens contain a total of 65,018 words,
for an average of 7.5 words per screen.
The game contains 407 menus.

And I haven't even fully scripted December (completed it's going to be a full year of school, until July )

[Vynuxys]

Oh no, I meant that Corvy is the top guy as in everyone likes him most. My guess on OTP is Azrael. Though I'd prefer it to be Steve or Furio, but that's just me 8D

Hmm, well I will see if I can find a way to do it. It can't be that hard. Maybe just when you do something to piss someone off, make a variable, and then next time you see them, use the if statement to see if that variable is = to one, and if it is, play out an event/go to a label with appropriate dialogue.

It's lookin' good :'D 11k, that's a lot, and you're not through with Dec yet.. whoo, will there be a Christmas/Easter break? It might make them programming a little easier, haha.

[MiSi]

I think, I'll leave the dating-sim just like it is for now... maybe when the other scripting is done, I can think about some changes

Sure there'll be holidays, plenty of them

And yes, it's Azzy (ehh... Azrael )

[MiSi]

Time for a little spoiler!

Since Corvinian seems to be pretty popular, here's the Halloween-CG with him. Additionally with this pic I introduce our new coloring-style Guess, we'll stick to that one for the rest of the game...

Yes, they're at the cinema

[Vynuxys]

Haha, aww, that's a cute CG <3 I must say, the improvement in art is amazing! Very, very big well done to the artist. Some places have the perfect shadows, and the anatomy looks improved, too. Way to go.

[MiSi]

Heh, heh... I also always wonder about how fast she improves... she started to draw manga just one year ago

[Aiurax]

I hope I'm not going to be kicked off this thread.
But the CG looks more like a Christmas one than a Halloween one..
Mostly because Corvy is wearing red and it looks like snow is around them.
But! I like it a lot. (Of course. GO CORVINIAN!!)

[try10]

Corvinian OMG NOw I really love him!!!!! Look at that FANGS! He is actualy hot in that picture,and not a cute kid like I usually see him as.

[MiSi]

@Aiurax:
Haha... no, you're not going to be kicked off And yeah, I have to admit... there's really much red, and Tristan's green jacket and all the white around... well, but it surely is a Halloween-CG (my sister tried to make it... err... rather kitschy )

@try10:
Yes, I know what you mean; at first it was difficult even for us not to think of him as a little, silly kid

[MiSi]

Good news: I found a simple way to make the guys being mad at Tristan, when he screws up with them!
I hope, scripting this won't take too long and will bring a bit more realistic feeling into the whole story.

[try10]

YAYYY!!!! HEHEHE GOOD LUCCK MiSi!
