Hi,

We are making Campus Island, an original dating game inspired by Visual Novel and Otome Game. It will be a browser game at first.


Pitch : A girl starts her first year at the most famous academy in the world, located in a charming archipelago somewhere in the middle of the ocean. But she was not meant to be there... Here begins her journey, meeting cool people, nice boys and friendly teachers !

An appealing setting and interesting art can be a good start. Where will your project go from here? Do you want to emphasize story or gameplay? Do you want to find a middle ground?

There are benefits to making sure your project stands out. But at the same time, you won't really benefit by garnishing the story/game and adding gimmicks. In my opinion, innovation and quality are about equally important.

One more thing... your web page states that your group is based in Paris. I don't know many French VNs and romance games, but I am slightly familiar with the six-part Flash series Lovely Juliet.

@gekiganwing hi, we will emphasize story first but we will find a middle ground adding mini-games. "innovation and quality are about equally important" We aggree with that ! We don't know Lovely Juliet so we checked the website, its not very popular in France, the most popular dating sim in France is http://www.amoursucre.com/.

Yes it is :D
Lovely Juliet is commercial while My Candy Love is free and it's more friendly so of course, it's more famous. Your project look really lovely by the way, hope you will release it soo

No, it's not like Total Drama.

It's something rather unique.
