  1. I'm fairly certain that the protag you play as with each heroine is pre-determined and you can't change it.
  2. Truer words have never been spoken! Honestly the rest of the routes just don't make very much sense.
  3. Sounds pretty cool, especially that it's set in the United States! After all they say write about what you know, which makes for a much more natural story and for easier writing in my opinion. The plot might be cliche, but I think that doesn't matter as long as the writing is good. Any plot can work out if the author puts work into it. Also: Isn't that in a grey legality area or is that okay in the states. There's just always those disclaimers at the start of Japanese Visual Novels. Are you doing all of the visuals and music yourself? If so that's really cool.
  4. How did they ever think that making pokemon speak was ever a good idea.
  5. Kokoro ga Sakebitagatterun da. is pretty good, although it could've been better. No fear, it's good anyways. Colorful is an interesting movie to think about, I enjoyed it's themes and stuff. Perfect Blue another Kon Satoshi film (Paprika was mentioned above, also by him). A little darker, but interesting to watch nonetheless. Sakasama no Patema a very pretty movie with good music and visuals, also has a neat concept. Also like people said above, all Miyazaki films (and Studio Ghibli in general) are wonderful! Makoto Shinkai films are also pretty good.
  6. you end up picking one day to go in the end anyways.
  7. Currently watching Haikyuu!! I usually don't watch sports anime, but I still enjoy them. Haikyuu!! is something else though. It's absolutely amazing. Everything is done so well and it's an emotional roller coaster for me. It's not overly predictable, and even if I did know what was going to happen next I think with this show it's the how you get there that matters not so much where you really end up. It's also really motivational for me since I feel like I was in a slump. Couldn't be better. Basically it's a great show, I see why it's one of (if not THE) top sports show.
  8. Huh, I liked Grisaia more (although this is just based on the first games of each series). I couldn't ever really get into majikoi. The routes were all pretty fun, but they weren't super immersive for me. Kind of on and off. As for rating they probably all rate about the same for me. Maybe I liked Wanko's route a little more than the others. I really enjoyed Grisaia though so I'm pretty biased, but this is what this thread is for right? I would rate the routes as: Amane = Makina < Yumiko < Sachi = Michiru. Although in reality they're all pretty close.
  9. False, seeing as this is almost dead. Next person almost forgot about this thread, but then decided to respond.
  10. I thought this was a meme, and then I realized that he actually posted this. What a legend
  11. These sound great! I would love to see your music used in a VN sometime. I don't know much about music composition, but I'm curious as to why you include 30 bars of rests at the end of the piano piece? When I was following through the score and got to the end this just struck me as odd. Was it just the nature of the software you used or was there a specific reason?
  12. True, I've heard it's really good. Next person enjoys watching movies.
  13. This looks great, good work! I think that the character size and the sprite size look nice. The UI really has a techie/futuristic feel to it especially with the hex background (or whatever it's called) behind the text. The only things that bother me are that usually I don't see the text placed centered but left aligned like you would find in a text document. The font itself is easy to read and goes well with the overall theme. Also, the words on the settings bar "Auto", "Skip", and "Save" are perfectly centered while the words "Back", "History", and "Prefs" are a bit to the left. "Q. Save" and "Q. Load" are also slightly to the left. I would just center all of them as I think the looks best. Or another option would be to center all of them except for "Back" and "Prefs" since they're on the edges in trapezoids and aren't in nice little rectangles like the others. Other than that, I think everything else looks amazing. Best of luck on your project!
  14. I would like to celebrate this moment as passing 200 pages of wonderful posts.
  15. I admit that I thought it was ridiculous to the point where I found it to be comedic as well since it was so misplaced. I think that it was probably the worst written ending in the VN as a whole. I think tragic here has double meanings.
