Zero Day sneak peek
Added 2021-09-09 02:34:39 +0000 UTCHave to say. I'm a bit disappointed that my big Zero Day visual novel pitch garnered exactly one positive response. (Thanks Rickochet, your comments are always much appreciated)
In the meantime, I've dummied up a more visual example of what I have in mind. I did one background, and one piece of character art, and stuck them both into renpy with a bit of code to make them work together.
I tried out a new shading technique on the figure, trying to up my game a bit. It's not quite Twistedscarlett quality, but it's a step up from my usual flat toon shading.
And something important for you all to remember: I'm working in a vacuum out here. Without any response from you folks at all, it's really hard for me to judge if what I'm doing is worth the effort. Doing an entire VN would require time and effort, and lots of both, so if this is a thing that you want, make some noise.
That goes double for you folks in the expensive seats.
I've attached the isolated character image and background art to this posting.

Would love a visual novel made by you

Whether you go forward full steam or not, I think it’s a pretty neat story and idea to put on the table and keep around. Pretty much a spot on image of what I envisioned in my head. Love that extra polish, the background is quality stuff and Cobalt in the freshest Boink fashion is always a win. As long as the project you do go forward with is something you’re passionate about, it’ll come out good and that’s the kind of stuff I want to see, whatever form it takes.

2021-09-09 09:12:04 +0000 UTCI might just take you up on that when it comes time to start writing sex the scenes.

2021-09-09 06:19:41 +0000 UTCSorry about that, Cobalt. A VN novel is a great idea. I'm not a programmer, and there are some other projects I'm working on at the moment, but I might be able to give some help with the writing, depending on what you're looking for.

2021-09-09 04:07:02 +0000 UTCI could probably use some help with script stuff at some point. I'll get with you privately about that at some point.

2021-09-09 03:52:55 +0000 UTCThe posting was called "Okay so, here it is..." which contained the pitch, and an image showing a flowchart style diagram. There was also a followup posting with more info called "Tornado Followup." Both postings were made one week ago, today, and should have been available to all patrons, regardless of tier.

2021-09-09 03:34:17 +0000 UTCI apologize, Chief Bear. I meant to say something, but forgot to. Blame Chevrolet. I think a VN would be rather nifty, and I could possibly help with script stuff. I also think the forums at https://f95zone.to/forums/games.2/ would maybe be a place to look for feedback, etc?
