It's decided: March 1st, 2017 is the Release Date!

DIS GON BE GOOD

Fingers crossed the release goes smoothly. All the best!

Mid-October Progress Report

Yu's glasses are pretty swag. Is he gonna serve as a prosecutor, defense or witness in this game, or is that just a placeholder image for now?

Also if you don't finish the case you could always send Persona 5 to me.....

Onward! 75% Completed

Very cool. If you'd like someone to LP the final product, you know where to find me!

British English speakers of RMN, I need your help! How do I write a 'British' speaking character?

I've lived in the UK for nine years now and went to schools teaching American English previously, so maybe I should chip in (is 'chip in' a Britishism?):

As FG said, the accents vary a SHEDLOAD in the UK. You mentioned someone having a Derbyshire/Cockney accent but those are two VERY different ones (unless your point was the voice actor was bad, in which case LOL).

By that I mean a British person is more likely to avoid answering a question about their actions with 'I could have done', rather than 'I could have.'
I'm not sure about this one - I hear 'I could have' fairly frequently around here, but pronounced (and sometimes typed!) by many Brits as 'I could of'.

Bit of a left field suggestion, but Mog, I'd suggest you check thestudentroom.co.uk. It's a forum I used to frequent when I wanted information on potential universities/degrees, and as such, it's full of British teenagers. This is important because the vast majority of users are kids born and bred in the UK, so are unlikely to ever deviate from, well, Britishness in terms of sentence structure (like I do about 30% of the time). Also, it's a boatload of TEXT to reference instead of speech, which would probably be more useful to you in a RPG Maker game.

NAME CHANGE!

A good decision!!

Minor Changes (Weapon Properties and Enemy Types)

Thanks for taking my LP into account! Really glad it's helping you make changes like these, which I'm sure would be really welcome.

I was going to ask this in Twitter but since I'm already here - how long do you think it's going to take for you to make these changes? I'm asking because unfortunately this week is a busy one so I won't be able to make any more LP's till the weekend, so going forward it's probably for the best if I play an updated version of the game.

DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME

@NeverSilent: Cheers, but...I'm really not changing a huge amount beyond the last one minute or so, plus a couple more lines of dialogue here and there...

@ArtBane: A gam-mak'er's gotta do what a gam-mak'er's gotta do

Early Demo for Playtesters

Haha, it's cool, it's cool. I know how rushed things can get when it comes to contests like these, but I thought I might as well throw out a few points in case y'all decide to work on updates sometime down the line.

I think I mentioned it somewhere on this game page before but in case you're interested, the Ore No Ryomi series by Vertigo Gaming has a few great ideas when it comes to cooking mini games.

Early Demo for Playtesters

oh yes Les Vis, I've got that in my list to try. It looks interesting.
Feel free! ;> Could definitely use a comment or two as I've had no feedback apart from my beta testers.

Anyway, I ended up downloading the full game instead of this demo, sorry! I've played for about 25 minutes and first impressions are mostly positive - although I wonder if there's any variation in how recipes are made? Unfortunately, while I think the music is good I'm not sure it fits the theme of the game.

I'll write a bit more after I'm a bit further in but for the record I freaking love cooking games so thanks a bunch for making this!!

Painted Heart now released!

With regards to typos, I am not 100% sure about this but I think I saw the word "exercising" spelt incorrectly somewhere within the first half hour of the game. I could have been seeing things, however.
