I swear there's a special kind of AAAAAGGGHHHHH when debugging game code and finally discovering solutions to the most annoying problems THE DAY BEFORE RELEASE.....

I'm sick, but I'll keep pushing - I want this game to be published and available for all.

So on tap for today, I want to go over a few simple choice types for the fellow devs that need a refresher as they plan future VNs.

Used correctly, they can make people invest in your VN game more.

Read article for whole breakdown.

HELLO CLASS!

Today on this lovely #ScreenshotSaturday, we're gonna go over the two different kinds of non-sprite art you will see in the game - backgrounds and CGs (which I abbreviate for "cutscene graphics")!

Read the article for the whole lesson.

IMPORTANT GAME #UPDATE COMIN THROUGH!

May I present the FINAL stats of the Return to Eternity VN game!! My work has paid off in that the final size still sits pretty under a gigabyte, so the game should perform fine on browsers!

More details in article!!

Alright so today, I wanna tackle the subject of shipping - mainly between characters I create by people who like my work.

TLDR: The canon is what I establish, but I want you enjoy my work however you can - ships and headcanons included.

More in article.

The storyboard is technically made up of cutscenes, but a lot of shots were redrawn as CGs for the visual novel game.

This is NOT one of them, but describes a "canon event" for the game.

Read article for more of my usual rambling and subtle encouragement.

Yep. FINALLY. Mark your calendars, fellow GJ citizens!

Let's see how presentable I can make this game build by then....

(No this is not an April Fool's joke - I'm not big enough of a creator to get a laugh out of that)

So the OGs have already seen a post mentioning this, so this is for the new followers:

While I would like to get GameJolt creator revenue here someday, I harbor no delusions of grandeur. ALL my games will be free to play.

Read article for context.

On tap for today, we have another in-story CG from the up-and-playable #demo (wink wink) complete with an article full of rambling on the game's development!

Said rambling is in the article, but hopefully you consider enjoying the demo anyway!

So to celebrate the lovely new background I have courtesy of @ERDODIUS here are two lovely young men that feature in "Equals: Aftermath Episode 1 - Begin Anew"!!

This VN is a nice little breather between high-adrenaline games, if you'd like to plaaaay~
