"I'll take a little break from art and do some writing before bed!" The writing before bed: #gamedesign #narrativedesign #choicesmatter #horror #visualnoveldev #vndev #indiegamedev #it'sfullywritten

an indie visual novel developer woke up and chose narrative design violence (with an optional chapter containing 35 linear paragraphs that can be connected to at any point from two later choice menus). a grayscale flowchart shows the game design visual equivalent of body horror that considering this quantity of player choice leads to, and why this is extremely uncommon in most narrative games except in rare instances. super worth it tho :D

J'ai fini le pré-codage de Revelition (ma Visual Novel) !!(déterminer les images à faire)

Ce qu'il reste à faire maintenant :
- traiter les données (il y a sûrement des émotions semblables)
- commencer à dessiner
- coder (lors que ce sera béta-lu)

Acte 4 de Revelition (ma Visual Novel) pré-codé ! (Déterminer les illustrations que je ferais)

Reste un seul acte et j'ai fini le pré-codage !
Et je pourrais attaquer les dessins ! (Après une bonne organisation)

Interesting participation info on jams that include #VisualNovel submissions from the folks at #vndb: Visual Novel Jam Statistics

For any jam, click "View more detailed stats" to get visualizations.

For example, here's the Yuri Jam graphs.

A graph illustrating how many games were entered into Yuri Jam over the course of its 10 year history.

There's nothing like the feelings you get when someone emails you about your games, talking about how much they loved your writing and character choices, and how upset the "bad" endings made them feel

People like that are what make #GameDev #IndieDev (or I suppose #VisualNovelDev) worth it
