Guest Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Can we give idea about new VN so have come out? Pretty much anything related to visual novels that's news, meaning most people haven't heard of it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zodai Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Well, why not an article on Ren'py? It's not exactly 'news' since some people might have heard of it (I know I have) but giving it publicity could really help the genre as a whole. http://www.renpy.org/ Essentially, it's a Visual Novel Engine, which people can use to make VNs. If we make an article about it - and maybe give it a pinned thread in Visual Novel Talk; we could create more interest in the creation of VNs themselves - not only spurring the market; but if one of the projects takes off, we could make an additional article for that project as well. Also, why exactly has Aaeru been absent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotsauce2000 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 What's the appropriate way of submitting news, either stories or just info? Is it this thread, some other thread or by some sort of form? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tay Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 What's the appropriate way of submitting news, either stories or just info? Is it this thread, some other thread or by some sort of form? Yes -- this is the place! Just post links to news stories you think would do well on the blog. If you'd like to personally write the article (on the blog itself), just make a note. We'll help you register as a blog author, and post approved stories once you're done! We may be merging some other, related posts into this one later today, but this is the right place!

hotsauce2000 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Thanks for the quick reply! In that case I think it's exciting news (generated right here at the Fuwanovel forums, even!) that Majikoi is finally looking like it'll get finished after months and months of stagnation and outcry from fans. This would likely interest a lot of people: https://forums.fuwanovel.net/index.php?/topic/2060-majikoi-miyako-route-translation/page-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darklord Rooke Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Winterwolves' new game is called 'Nicole' and is an otome dating sim. All fans of dating sims should check it out because there aren't that many available in english. A free demo is available on the site. http://www.winterwolves.com/nicole.htm Nicole is thrilled that she managed to get into her first choice school and is looking forward to experiencing college life there. However, as soon as she moves into the university dorms, she finds out that there’s been a series of mysterious disappearances going on around the campus! So far, three girls have already gone missing and Nicole could be next if she’s not too careful – not quite the ideal college experience Nicole had in mind. Nicole is a dating sim that revolves around your day-to-day life as a college student. You can take up part-time jobs to earn money, explore various locations, do recreational and extra-curricular activities, and meet intriguing characters like Darren, Kurt, Jeff and Ted. You might even get to date the culprit! Choose which actions to perform each day with a simple and intuitive interface. Improve Nicole's skills and keep her morale and energy well balanced, otherwise she won't be able to perform well in her daily activities. The game features four male romance options and an additional four female romance options which will be released in a separate game version within a few months. You may focus solely on dating, or gather enough clues and solve the mystery to unlock an extra ending for each of the datable characters! You can use items that can be bought from the in-game online shop or visit various locations within the game to perform certain actions, which can improve your stats and your relationship with the characters. At the end of the day, you’ll get a summary of your progress. What are you waiting for? Get the normal game or the bonus content version which includes bonus chibi, wallpapers and the full game soundtrack in mp3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darklord Rooke Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I friggin love that art. Sucks its otome or I'd dive right in. I hope it does well though. Apparently sales are really good, which makes me happy. Winterwolves makes some excellent games The game was very well received and if continues this way it could become my most popular otome game so far http://www.winterwolves.net/blog/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
