[WIP] Summer Tales of Katt and June [GxS'Life]

#1 Post by tigerkidde » Sat Sep 22, 2012 10:56 am

Update: In progress.

===Synopsis===
Meet Katt and June as they enter the Summer years of their lives. A pair of twin sisters pursuing life, liberty, and happiness in the face of high school drama, crazed selfish adults, and evil fantastical bastards. Follow the wild Katt as she struggles with anterograde amnesia, finding a good boyfriend, and resisting the urge to punch her problems in the face. And the beautiful June, eager to rise to fame and fortune without getting burdened by her dysfunctional family.

Q: Should I read the rest of this thread?
A: Nope! There will be a *bump* update post with a post count of THREE when that time comes.

Q: Is this going to be commercial?
A: Nope. Free.

Q: How long is the visual novel going to be?
A: This scope of the release is an episode. The reading time for this first episode is about 15~25 minutes for each protagonist for one route. Two routes for each protagonist, with two protagonists. Please note, the downloadable proof of concept will not be available in the release product.

Q: Why is this thread not being advertised?
A: The thread serves as a progress update as assets come together.

Q: Do you have a web page?
A: The web page is a simple front page with some progress updates. With the current resources, the completion of the visual novel will take priority over the web page.

Q: GxS'Life?
A: This was shorter than female protagonists, as I ran out of space in my topic header.

Scope of Download:
Approximately 5 minutes of reading. Linear. An LSF download that takes the art, music, and code for a spin and teaching me about building for release and file sharing services. Linux version untested.

Scope of Next Download:
The next download is intended to be a demo of the first episode. Aesthetic polish forthcoming.

It sounds like you created this demo to test out Ren'py, or to give your characters a trial run. As you continue writing, remember that you can create what you want. If you're interested in making a VN focused on pairings (or even multiple types of pairings), that's one option. But if your goal is to create a VN with zero pairings (focus on friendship, plot, other themes), that's another option.
