Ooh, dw I don't take offense to that, in fact I'm glad my work could inspire you to create too!

The plot sounds interesting already, Kaede seems like an absolutely insane person and I'm looking forward to see his creepiness in action LMAO. Grabbing the MC's comb just to steal her strands of hair is just peak yandere behavior and I love it, the dolls too.

This other guy also seems really cute, I enjoy characters with double lives a lot, and he seems mostly like a cinnamon roll (boy I'm gonna jinx it aren't I, he's going to turn batshit or something LMAOAO)

As for the home screen, honestly I just used the default ones and changed the position and font. This particular video might help you with that: https://youtu.be/_zq3V28qp2w (any of Zeil's tutorials are a massive help tho, go check her channel out and see if there's any other tutorial there that might help you)

Text border is... I'm assuming the dialogue box for the game? You can find the dialogue box file in the GUI folder (I think) and just change that file directly into whatever you want. Here's another video that could possibly help you with it: https://youtu.be/AHuIHrvBBII

And you can absolutely use font generator, yeah! I just typed the original text in like those zalgo font generator, then copy and pasted the result to the script. Put a {nw} tag afterwards to have it seem like it abruptly stopped, then boom. It works just fine.

HE IS LMAO
at least, my plans for him are :D
the funny thing is HE LOOKS PERFECTLY NORMAL--okay not perfectly normal...he kinda looks emo--just using brown colors instead of black...but he SEEMS normal--likes reading and drawing, decent grades...
Just tryna be "helpful" mhm, mhm Kaede
I mentally call him Haruto JUST BECAUSE HE HAS BROWN HAIR--I know it sounds bad but like-every single Haruto I've seen BY FAR IN MY LIFE has brown hair!! also another spoiler for the game: I'm hoping maybe I can bring the arm warmers Haruto has into play? Like he has something under there--like a scar or something from a fight with one of Yuki's ex's that he wants to hide so Yuki wouldn't worry...
SV Haruto, Haruto Asuka, my OC Haruto, so on so forth TvT

that's for me to know about you to find out-/j BUT I HOPE NOT?? I DON'T HAVE ANY IDEA OF WHAT'S GOING ON SO HE COULD TURN ANY MINUTE LMAOOOO
Also I got another character!! Also unnamed, he's loosely ~~wait who am I kidding~~ he's based off my Cooking Companions OC-he's really sassy and hates being called a girl just because of his appearance- "did you just GENDER ME!?" typa deal xD
Cocky, rude, sassy, no respect for elders, etc etc
He's also based off a lime because of cooking companions--since there's these things called the Chompettes which is basically just possessed food XD

Aaaah okioki!! Thanks for the help! And yeah the dialogue box...I forgot what it was callledddd gah
and okay, thanks SO MUCH!! gosh I wanna start coding rn but I know I have like twenty other projects I gotta fiiiinish sob
Like how yesterday was one of my favorite characters' [Sousuke Mitsuba from TBHK] "birthday" [as in, his name can be read as 3/28 so it's just called his bday] so I ended up hosting a collab art thing and I'm still looking for people to fill in the empty spaces because...there's a LOT of them LMAO

Also, out of pure curiosity: A: How did you come up w ur characters
and B: what is your opinion on femboys
[as you can see I have a type]
[everyone is liking the main character and I'm over here with my pink-haired side characters LMAO]
every time I see you reply my mood skyrockets happily :D
I seriously didn't expect to start talking with a famous person >_<

Honesty though, I can see it. For me, the typical Haruto either has brown hair or black hair. The majority of Harutos I see in fiction are mostly like that LMAO, or maybe I need to watch/read more stuff.

He could turn any minute, saying it like he's going to turn into a zombie or something LMAOO 😭

Ahh, I've played Cooking Companions. Based off of a lime huh? I guess you can say that his personality as sour as a lime too LOL. The cast sounds real chaotic already

Ooh, good luck with your projects then! Wishing that your projects could go by smoothly!

And as for your questions: A) I just do, I guess?? I can't really explain it well. Most of the time, I usually have a character appearance in mind, then I draw them and come up with their story on the go. Sometimes, it's the other way around, I have a story in mind, and then I create the characters in a way that can enhance the plot or is fitting to the story. For most of my VN developments, I use the latter method, because I feel like the characters has to serve a purpose in the story (like I wouldn't add any other main characters in a story if all they do is just exist and does not progress the story, that sort of thing. The main cast has to add something to the table.). Usually, I use the appearance first -> story later method for my other singular OCs that I make for fun or the OCs I use to roleplay.

B) And femboys? I like em, yeah. They're very pretty. But I especially like it when the character looks meek/cute/feminine and ends up being cunning and smart asf (Now you know why I created Ichigo, that type of characters is just so much fun )

I'm glad that I could help you both with your project and your mood! But I'm not really famous or anything. I'm just any other person who writes silly stuff and publish them on the internet LMAO

Elliott / Nico1 year ago

okay FIRSTLY. I was playing SV with my friends- and my friend Blocket just called Ichigo a mascot for a Happy Meal at Wendys LMAO--after seeing him say "you have a death wish, don't you?" LMAO
"strawberry shake has killed ZERO PEOPLE!! IT CONTAINS NO HUMAN PRODUCTS!!"
"Wendy's successor"
ALSO: MY OTHER FRIEND FRIEND RIN CALLED HARUTO A CHICK-FIL-A MASCOT HELP-

"he gave us a dead bird on our first meet"
"Sweetest Valentine x Hot Topic AU! Where they hide dead birds in the ventilator!"
"they could all work at Hot Topic ngl"
and Yuzuki is Denny's--
"wendy's ran off with a murderer hot topic girl" - ???
"CHICK-FIL-A x WENDY'S FEMBOY LET'S GOOOOO" - Rin
"is it just me or does Haruto look like Justin Bieber when he was twelve." -Rin
"horsegirl x wendy's irl" - Me
"it's two halves of a horse with a horse on two legs on top of them" [reference to the two-person horse costume + another friend who's in another horse costume riding on top of them] - Rin
"what if we had a two-person horse costume. On top of a two-person horse costume" - Me
"we will be unstoppable!" - Rin
"and it'll help people feel so much better! - blocket 'wait weren't we just talking about horse costumes?' - me"

"I feel bad for the creator of the game--they just have to read these quotes" - Rin
sob
as you can see my friend group is chaotic ASF
and this is a good day LMAO
Secondly
YEAH XD
IT'S SO WEIRD--
if u wanna watch something watch a3 act addict actors 100%
Haruto Asuka, Natsugumi, Harugumi >>>

...THAT'S A GREAT IDEA. scritch scritch "...zombie....Rabbit."
but idk what he's gonna DO LMAO
he's just a guy that hates social interaction

A. aaaah ok xD--and yeah that makes sense...I don't have any ideas for plot tho lol

Except for a vague idea for uhm. Hitting rabbit boy on the back of the head with a frisbee
Oh, you have?? What'd you think of it? It's one of my fav horror games xDD--although it kinda is scary for me...I prefer psychological horror instead of jumpscares and shiz xD
and yes the cast is based offa my friendgroup in a way LMAAAO

B. oh heck yeah!! femboys are my type as u can see LMAO
Muku Sakisaka, Yuki Rurikawa, Mitsuba Sousuke, Ichigo...
and thanks again for the tips1!!

I'm writing the SV horse costume fic rn. with two extra people bcz me and Christy aren't enough.

EXCUSE YOU. You are famous LMAO-in my friend group and here obv
but thanks for helping my mood again!! helps me through a bad day.

anyway!! I seriously wanna keep talking with you but I'd hate to keep making up all the topics and not letting you speak so uhm--how are you?

feel free to talk1!

sylvan1 year ago (1 edit)

Oh my god the quotes BAHAH you're definitely not lying when you say that your friend group is chaotic asf (and yes rin actually why tf does haruto look like younger justin bieber, i can't unsee it now--)

I saw a lot of great fanarts of A3, I might watch it yeah, it seems like a fun show/media (if I'm not wrong, it originated from a game right?)

And Cooking Companions? It's definitely a fun VN, creepy at times and I also enjoy the twist. The last showdown is kinda funny to me, but it definitely makes things interesting!

Well, you can feel free to create your own stuff however you enjoy it! If it works, and it makes you happy creating it, then why not?? I shared some tips, but you don't have to follow it if you don't wanna LMAO

And I'm fine today! Hopefully you're fine too! Actually, while I'm at it, I might as well ask. How did you find Sweetest Valentine? I'm curious especially since you don't have an itch.io account before this, I believe. Was it from a recommendaton of a friend or something?

Elliott / Nico1 year ago

WE PFP MATCHED AND NOW RIN'S JUSTIN BIEBER AND I'M WENDY'S--
I've literally been changing my pfp to a different Ichigo pic every day I have too many screenshots :sob:
maybe I should like. Record us and post it/hj

YES DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT [I have a presentation prepared on Why Natsugumi Is The Best Troupe Of All Time]
referencing four femboys and a sunflower [Muku, Yuki, Kazunari, Misumi, and Tenma]

xD CC kinda scares me--I prefer psychological horror than like. Jumpscares.... it freaked me out [playing it at night did NOT help] and I pretty much started crying when we had to go down the stairs in-game and closed my eyes and just tapped.

I'm gonna use them :D I've been busy coding up some character sheet for a couple rps--one of them I'm submitting in Mitsuba from TBHK, Turnip Boy from Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, Ichigo, and MAYBE Wild from Linked Universe if I got time
the other is twst ocs--I got three so far- Rikka Ibaraki and Miyo Kyomizu! :D
[idk if you know Twisted Wonderland or not SO I'll stop before I start rambling]

am I getting kidnapped? :mukuohgod:/j
actually, I don't quite remember xD
Pretty sure I was scrolling through some horror games and it popped up-cue me downloading it, getting scared, watching playthroughs, then jumping in with my friends into the world of SV! :D

also GUESS WHAT.

sylvan1 year ago

Oh god LMAOO

I'll try to get around to A3 when I have the time. I also happen to know Twisted Wonderland, but I'm just waiting for it to be available in my country rn lmao

Ohh yeah, the stairs scene in Cooking Companions is freaky yeah. Congrats on getting through that LOL

Ahh I see, I see. I've always wondered how tf people find the game LMAO, thank you for answering my question

Oh? What happened?

Elliott / Nico1 year ago

YAY! I can't wait~
Also, couldn't you use a VPN? Pretty sure most VPNs would work...it does depend on what device you're using for some of them, though.
Like QooApp, you need a Samsung, but they're pretty good.

I BARELY DID LMAO--I am planning on planting a scene like that in my game though!
I also have way more ideas now--wanna hear them??

I meeeeean-I'm glad I found the game anw :D
You remind me of a lot of my best friends
their names are Rei and Shy_Cryptid online
I don't know them irl-
anyway as I was saying...I really like ur personality and ur so cool and fun to talk tooooo--

okay SO-I have a lot! So today and yesterday was my school play! It was a murder mystery named "Mystery at the Malt Shop" [name changed bcz murder at the malt shop might sound a bit too violent apparently?], this week I'm going on a family cruise [without wifi nooooo] and this Saturday is my black belt test! Buncha things in a row....can't wait for April to be over tbh :sob:

sylvan1 year ago

Oh, I actually haven't tried that, maybe I should...

Of course I'm absolutely fine with hearing ideas, only if you're absolutely fine with sharing them!

Thank you for the compliment! I'm glad that you're enjoying our talk so far LMAO

Woah yeah that is a lot. Hope you had fun with all those stuff though! That school play honestly sounds interesting, what's it about? And oooh black belt test? You're practicing martial arts? That's honestly super cool, best of luck and I hope you get that black belt!

Elliott / Nico1 year ago

Yeah--fair warning though, some of them are uh...bad xD
I have a couple installed but they don't work, they just...sit there [for now]

Basically, the plot that I have so far is that MC [Yuki] is gonna meet all these random people around Halloween time...and then it turns into Spirited Away, where she just gets slapped into the middle of a Yokai town where Kaede is the ruler [he overthrew the last king]
And there's gonna be a band of knights and shiz trying to overthrow Kaede so the proper Prince [Prince Reynard] can rule
There's prolly also just gonna be another thing where we skirt around it entirely and just hear about it but don't get involved into it directly, and one where we accidentally get thrown into the dungeon...

And yeah! Moo Duk Kwan; it's a Korean martial art~ I havta redo my board break though bcz I did it wrong TvT
Thirdly: GUESS WHAT [again]
