What you want to make?
I want to make a tribute to 2000s doujin Visual Novels with charming, if stilted, fan translations. It’s going to be melancholic, faux-philosophical in nature, and sort of non-sequitur between cultures and languages lost in translation.
What text (i.e. any media, fiction or not) that you want to draw from?
Many 2000s-2010s VNs, but mainly ef ~a fairy tale of the two~ (and its anime adaptation), Buddhist texts and discourses about reincarnation, and the many stories in the world about various roles in the afterlife.
What mediums or tools you want to use and why?
Visual novel, because I want to explore abstract atmospheric compositions to accompany the text, and it’s more doable than full-blown animation.
Why are you scared of participating?
It’s been a long time since I write ‘properly’ and the narrative in my head is too grand and pretentious, then I just have to overcomplicate things by choosing to also learn a whole new engine, and fitting this to Spooktober deadline.
