Helvetica Standard 17 Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 Update Adding ambience lightning for sprites (conventionally speaking, color filters for certain times of the day eg. natural, afternoon, night) sample screenshots coming soon! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geass 17 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Helv will you release a demo for the first chapter maybe? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Maoh 13 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) So there will be an unlockable scene/image/something if you see all the possible routes? I just noticed Aselia has a bonus ending scene when you complete all the routes and i thought it would be funny, it would be a way to motivate the player to see all the routes even if he doesn't like some heroine (like me who wasn't able to motivate myself to start emelita's route on kamidori) Edited October 14, 2013 by Maoh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Helvetica Standard 17 Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 Helv will you release a demo for the first chapter maybe? Geass I'd love to. But I'm not sure the 1st chapter alone would be enough to tease readers, maybe the first 2 chapters? or do you believe that's too much for a demo? I'm sorry I don't normaly download demos.

killerinsidee 14 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 ^ I don't know how your VN is structured, but you could just cut it off before some "oh shit" moment in the first chapter or so. Or after the introduction, before you get out of the "prologue" sections. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Helvetica Standard 17 Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Update: bad news @Geass @killer Asked about making a demo build at the Ren'py support forums. Launching the distribution files locks all content with no possibility of further editing We'll have to wait till the VN is complete I'm afraid Edit: nevermind someone else at the forums told me of a way to make a demo without risking locking up my files. (working on it right now) Edited October 14, 2013 by Helvetica Standard Quote Link to post Share on other sites
killerinsidee 14 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) ^ Can't you like cheat it? Make some lose-lose choice (instead of the one that's normally in the game) that doesn't let you progress further no matter what you do. Then make them both lead to some splash screen that says "look forward to the full game" or something. That should be fine for a demo. Edit: Nvm then.

Helvetica Standard 17 Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Update :3 Built a demo!

killerinsidee 14 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) ^ Can't seem to connect to you on the torrent. It shows 1 seeder (you), though. I suggest you upload it on zippyshare, mega or putlocker. It's the fastest way to get it. Edit: It finally connected. Edited October 14, 2013 by killerinsidee Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chocolatemilkgod 16 Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Connecting....connecting...connecting... God dammit >. Also, for the record, I don't mind at all how long it takes for the full game to come out. I'd actually be happier if it came out later but in a more polished form...Games that come out later polished are better than games that come out earlier and are less so...that said if you're confident you can polish everything off by January that's fine Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Perfectionist to the core! x3 If I believe the VN still needs more QC by January I will most certainly delay its release till it's perfect mint for launch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forward to your feedback Link to torrent: https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=938D34964F65B39B!353&authkey=!ADrebCse-_BSHcw So basically we're kinda beta testing the game, telling you the bugs and stuff and then giving you feedback?

Helvetica Standard 17 Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 So basically we're kinda beta testing the game, telling you the bugs and stuff and then giving you feedback? Nope. I made this demo at the request of @Geass @killerinside. You're free to try it and if you'd like, you can tell me what you think about it :3 There's no need to tell me about errors or bugs since this DEMO is an alpha version of chapter 1 XD Beta testing phase will begin once VN is completed (You can volunteer to be beta tester if you want.)

erogeking 15 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 alright just finished downloading and iv played the game for about ten minutes and iv got to say it's good not winning any awards but it's still good the music and sound effects are perfect storyline seems interesting. the funny moments are funny. Granted iv only played it for 10 minutes but i figured seeing as how nobody else has posted anything yet i might as well do it early Quote Link to post Share on other sites
