It's my birthday!

Happy birthday Gourd~!

How are things going for the MOG events?

Aww good luck to everyone who's still in it and anyone who's going to be in it!

I've had to put progress on hold in order to work on priority deadline projects, but I'm sure there'll be stuff done by the end. It sure is a pain to imitate RTP sprites without using other people's templates though. ):

Will you play a pure-text CYOA novel?

I'm not really familiar with this genre, so you should take what I say with a grain of salt ): But in any case, here's what I think:

You'd need some really great writing and/or ideas to propel it forward. Personally I wouldn't be very interested if it works in exactly the same way as a choice VN without the V. Random game over after choosing between cheese and a knife? No thank you.

If you do create a game like this it would be nice to make sure each decision/action counts for something in the end, like all those personality tests floating around the web. People are constantly doing them because they expect that clicking a series of multiple choice answers will unveil some great revelation about what type of person they are or about human nature in general. If you can incorporate that concept then that might be pretty cool.

For example, let's say you're doing a horror dungeon story and the player starts with a series of neutral options. If they consistently choose gritty/disturbing options in the beginning, the story could flow towards much darker and insane stuff until it reaches a horrible finale, playing upon the fact that the player chose to go evil. On the other hand, if they attempt to do morally correct things, it seems obvious they're a goody two-shoes so you can make them suffer by forcing them to make increasingly morally-compromising decisions (where it's much easier to do the wrong thing, but being that they're good they attempt the 'right' thing even though it makes life more difficult for them).

Basically, to make it interesting (for people like me, at least), do make the adventure about real choice, not about a linear story with artificial choices such as "Guess which way is the right way!" or "Guess what magic words you need to type in here lolol!"

Good luck either way!

Thank you, danieru! I'm very glad that you enjoyed our game. We're both striving to keep creating interesting works. Thanks again for your support, it's wonderful to hear from you.

Monster Illustrator, Animation, and Character Design

Dude, your stuff is awesome \o/
So many amazing artists from Indonesia, seriously.

I think what I love best are your palettes and lighting. You obviously know your stuff and are willing to have fun while you're at it.

Looking forward to seeing more of your work, in any case~

Art, art, everywhere... A massive art dump [Updated Dec 6, 2014]

Oooh wow I really love your line style in the larger work! Actually, I think I might've seen your stuff before... Pixeljoint? This is a really distinctive style haha

It's awesome how smoothly you work these fidgety little square dots XD Especially her facial features, they're really well done.

Let's Draw a Pass-Off Comic! -Finished!-

Yay! Good luck to the last 3 artists!

accha art, yay

Thanks JosephSeraph!! \o/ That's very generous praise ahaha

I used After Effects. It's definitely really intimidating at first, but the tutorials on videocopilot are awesome for learning how to do things like learning how lights and 3D cameras work.

The videos I recommend are 3, 7, and 8!

You can also check out some cool tutorials on youtube, though my favorite guy is EC Abrams. For example, here's his video on Venetian Blinds preset animations (AND THE PRESET ANIMATIONS ARE GOLD), which is that diagonal line transition you see in drop pop candy.

As you can tell I'm really excited about this stuff haha

Anyway good luck, I hope you can enjoy learning too!! ヽ(;▽;)ノ

Hey Accha, I was just wondering whether you would allow me to do a lets play of Dreaming Mary and upload the monetized videos to YouTube? I will of course link back to this page in the description and credit back to you :) Let me know if this is okay or not, I'll respect your decision of course. I wanted to make sure to get permission from you before continuing. The game looks so good though, I can't wait to play, regardless. Thanks a lot either way Accha :D


Sure, go ahead! Thanks for asking and also for playing the game =D
