Suki Suki aka If You Love Me Then Say So Released
Helvetica Standard replied to littleshogun's topic in Visual Novel Talk
Glad to see I'm not the only one with a beef for the dating sim elements. In my case, i'll just wait patiently till a kind soul, well versed in these types of games (or just a lot of free time) concocts a proper walkthrough. Meanwhile, skipping text and trying different choices seems to be the only effective way to explore the routes. -
[Walkthrough] Feedback Thread
Helvetica Standard replied to Snowtsuku's topic in Unformatted Walkthroughs
Let's say SukiSuki is a 3 part cake. 2 slices are Dating Sim and 1 slice is VN. That's the thing, there's no memo about that, so if you bought it, you're stuck with a weird DS/VN hybrid. It could have worked very well as a regular VN but the dating structure and the convoluted mechanics for confession and weekly MVP system kill the narrative horribly. So yeah, making a guide for a dating sim is a tough endeavor, specially when some events are random and can disappear without warning. Picking an event and then completing its chain in order is often necessary for some routes. That's why the game has a tutorial you can refer to if you get lost, but even with save scumming, you can get stuck many times trying to get an ending. I suspect we won't have a proper walkthrough in a long time unless someone translates the official Chuable one. u.u -

OELVN Project Violet Hill (DEMO released)
Helvetica Standard replied to Helvetica Standard's topic in Original Projects
Hello everyone! Yup, we're alive. To cut a long story short, we had a share of difficulties with our script, real life and time zones. Which of course is nothing new. We have no excuse and we sincerely apologise for the delay. While we are currently doing our very best to get the demo out ASAP there's no estimated ETA yet but we'll keep you guys updated, tentative release date would be early this year. Without further ado we leave you with the first update of the year and the changelog (Indeed, we changed a boatload of things) As you have probably noticed if you checked our main page post, well....there's plenty of changes made to both plot and setting. From character names to location and framework, Violet Hill underwent a massive overhaul. The changes are as follows: --Changelog for Violet Hill v5.0-- - Names and nicknames - Character names have been updated accordingly; some have remained similar or unchanged, most have been changed entirely. - Lore - all manner of worldbuilding will be adjusted to match the new location of the story. - Location - Now in Oxfordshire England ~60-100k people in the large town/small city, mainly British in inspiration. - Backstory - Sarah and Kaylee have been changed (esp. Sarah); some changes to Andrea - Landmark names - Landmarks have been changed accordingly with the exception of the Wakamoto express which will stand true to its homage *salute*. - School system - British system; think about A-levels - School events - Mostly the same; adapted to fit with culture. - Schedules and habits - Changing them to reflect the new location. - Mindstorm- Some changes. - Route framework- Pretty much the same. - Mindstorm info - Unchanged save for mythology adjustments on the sci-fan end; sci-fi remains the same - Clothing - Unchanged, uniforms will remain the same also as well as any fanservice resulting in their use. - Flag events - In discussion. Possibly 1 or 2 flags to keep narrative consistent. - Exploration segments - Unchanged mostly - House combing - Still thinking about how we insert this. - Nighttime events - Mostly moved to later development. - Geotags - Overhauled to match the new location and lore. - Audio logs - overhauled to match changes. Need to think about distribution. - Art club - Changed in how it’s made and its cultural side, but quite similar. - Club events - Changed to reflect new school system. - Romance and lovey dovey stuff- Almost completely unchanged. May include a couple of British cultural references tho. That's all for the moment, we'll keep you guys updated. It might be abit late but: HAPPY NEW YEAR 2016! Many thanks for your support! It means the world to us!! Kind regards, Red Lattice Studio Team. -

OELVN Project Violet Hill (DEMO released)
Helvetica Standard replied to Helvetica Standard's topic in Original Projects
-November Update- Hello guys! How are you doing? We're doing just fine..err..more or less actually. We're still alive and kicking despite appearances, however there's some good news and bad news to announce. The good news? The project is very much alive and we're doing our best to complete it ASAP. The bad news.... ...is that we were back to the drawing board with the script. That's right, for reasons yet unspecified Alex_Omega has left the team and we were left without a DEMO script and without anything to replace it. Fortunately we managed to create a solid and consistent framework which will help us in the future once we find a new writer. It's sad and yeah, it's frustrating but all we can do is chin up and keep doing our best. For now, do know that we're in search of talented writers! and we'd very much love to have you if you're interested! So don't hesistate to post below or PM anyone from the team. I'll also post the pro forma below for those interested As for our current status, we have more assets and are still actively working in what can be done for now. We can no longer give you guys an ETA for the DEMO due to these circumstances but we assure you we'll do our best to have it ready as soon as possible. Kind regards: Red Lattice Studio team. -
Oh, The (Tricky) Editing Mistakes I Have Made (Part 2 of ∞)
Helvetica Standard commented on Darbury's blog entry in re:Edit
eh, you could call it a trademark word gag of hers Like Monogatari girls (I think each and every single one of them has a catchphrase of some sort.) I don't speak or read moonrunes but perhaps "Zurui" is more like "meanie" in most instances. -

Cholula sauce is from my country! Not the best hot sauce tho. If you want the best go for Valentina (the black label one) stomach ulcer guaranteed or your money back here: https://www.ulabox.com/media/13595_l1.jpg -
So, idk how long you had Nepgear as your avatar for, but after a year of Fuwa and some 54 avatar changes, fate has decreed me to be Uni (for now)

VNs where bad endings aren't exactly..... bad?
Helvetica Standard replied to CeruleanGamer's topic in Recommendations
Seasons of Sakura - The only bad end you can get has Yuuji join the School liberation front and the Survival club. There's nothing bad about it except you don't get a girlfriend. Hoshizora e Kakaru hashi - There's one ending where you pick Ayumu over any of the girls. You simply decide to stay by your brother's side and take care of him. Steins;Gate - With the exception of the True end, all other endings are arguably bad ends (although they're of the "happy ever after variety", the main plot never gets resolved). I'd put forward my arguments as to why but, spoilers. Rewrite - Same case as with S;G, except for the main plot ends (moon and terra) every other ending is essentially a bad one. It only turns "bad" if you consider what will happen in the future, tho. -
So, let's talk about the TPP and why it shouldn't go through
Helvetica Standard replied to Mugi's topic in General Discussion
Ok. you gotta stop reading post-apocalyptic, dystopian future, sci-fi novels. XD Sadly reality is more boring than fiction and someone owning the internet anytime soon is a tall order. The repercussions of censoring all forms of free speech and expression would trigger your belated war anyway. XD
