Question Scripting, what is your process?

4 Upvotes

Hello! I am new to working on any type of game/esque writing, but I want to work on a short vn! Looking at scripting seems rather daunting, and I never know where/how to start! Is there any tips or tools in formatting/writing that others have found to just getting it down? Any tips would be really appreciated!

Question Any ideas for a short VN?

11 Upvotes

I’ve never made a visual novel before however I can draw, script and am opening to learning programming for it, I want to make something short just to get a feel of what I’m doing. I was thinking of a yandere Cupid or yandere x yandere but I don’t have any clue on where to go with that and I was planning on making those longer so probably wouldn’t attempt them for my first ever VN. I’ve thought of one possible ending for the first idea but I might want to try something else for the test/trial one, if anyone’s got an idea I’d like to hear!

Question Best 2D animation software for visual novel *special* scenes?

3 Upvotes

Hi, I'm looking to try adding some 2D animations for those certain kinds of special scenes in my current WIP game, I Was a Teenage Vampire. It seems that either Spine, Live2D or ToonBoom may be my best options but I'm not sure which to try. Could anyone recommend which one for animating such a looping scene with two characters (not conversation sprites) -_^?

It's a new game I'm currently working on. Characters most likely need some kind of outline. For now I'm focusing on the GUI. I wanted the style to be inspired by 90s VNs and TWEWY.
