RONOVE'S PROFILE

I don't think people should make a story and then fit it into the game. If you want to make a game--be it visual novel, RPG, whatever--you need to make the story alongside the gameplay. When that happens, the story evolves with what you want to do in a game and thus feels more interconnected.

I know I have a lot of troubles taking game-ideas I've had and adapt them to a different medium (novel/comic/illustrated fairytale) because I always realize "I made this to be for an RPG, so there are spots where I wanted people to explore/do whatever". Great kudos to anyone who can take a game idea and adapt it to a new medium, but I always have a hard time. And thus I have a hard time trying to take a novel idea and make it into a game without completely redoing large portions of it to make it fit within a "game" and not just have 2 hour cutscenes, 5 minutes of exploration before a 2 hour cutscene.

I think you did a good job especially for one not used to doing portraits! :D

Controlling characters with a mouse works on my game? O_o

@Natsu_Luffy: Yes, that's a screenshot from my game! I really liked drawing that scene (and the bad ending, I have to admit; Snowe is just fun to draw with blood. I DON'T KNOW WHY). And if the enemies are tough, dodge them as much as you can. Get Astra and Hiante on the party and then go back and kick some butt. Not much else to say.

Those interested: the Windy Wisp now has a non-action attack where it "floats around the party curiously". Hopefully when the next version is up, that'll give you guys enough time to either escape or kick butt (in addition, it spams wind more as it's dying so...).

@Gourd_Clae: Emmy came up with a good theory on why Lorel and The Old are harder than the other bosses! They are your first two bosses! You guys haven't gotten used to the system yet and thus they appear harder than the rest. Though clearly, getting your butt handed to you by Lorel 15 times made you learn quick for the Old. :P

I can see blue lines everywhere! :O What are they?
