Two types of main characters in visual novels

Two types of main characters in visual novels

Comments 0 Comment

This is a topic which will undoubtedly cross the mind of many visual novel creators and perhaps even a few readers too – the type of main character (MC). While some MC’s have a bit of both, in general you can classify them into the following two categories: personality-based MC (the character has a defined personality) self-insert MC (the character lacks a personality and is a stand-in for the reader) Depending on the type of MC, visuals, narrative and choices…

It’s convention-time! This weekend, you can find me and Kiki in the dealerroom at Animecon 2013 (Netherlands)!

We sadly don’t have anything new to show due to our visual novel works, but we bring along our usual goods. Visit us for works…

What, an update!? Why yes, we’ve been busy. In fact, we’ve been so busy we couldn’t even update this blog, for there wasn’t any time to write a post.

We are now halfway through the required music for Locus Magici, and so I present you a new unlocked achievement: If you cannot see the audio controls, your browser does not support the audio element It’s our saddest song, for the delicious drama– unfortunate events in the story :)! Oh, what perils await you? *mysterious smile* Other than that, me and Kiki have been doing what we were doing before; drawing sprites and scripting more. It’s a lot of work,…

We’re still alive somehow! We have the bad habit to work ourselves into the most impossible deadlines. At least we’ve always succeeded thus far, so that’s something? Anyway, this post will nicely summarise what we did, what we are doing right now, and what we will do in the near future. So first, in January we did two things: Finally opening a Work-In-Progress topic for Locus Magici on the Lemmasoft forums. Finishing the full-colour manga one-shot we talked about in…

While we mainly focus on visual novels nowadays, we started out as (and still are) a small Dutch doujinshi circle to make our own original manga stories. In fact, we have a short story in the pipeline for Tsunacon, an upcoming convention in February. Basically, we have the following idea: in a Victorian or fantasy setting (I haven’t decided yet), a young noble lady is about to be betrothed to the most stoic man alive. Although she likes him, the…

While November seems to try everything it can to halt our progress, we still managed to work on some things~ Sound effects will be completed soon, we have three (out of fifteen or something at most) music tracks done and all sprites are being neatly sketched. Since it’s a bit hard to talk about music and sound effects, I’ll just tell you guys a bit about the sprite-progress. Lloyd/MC – with each design his belts decrease. Sketches first Not a…

Locus Magici: Finished GUI!

After a lot of work, the graphical user interface (GUI) is finally done, so it’s time to show off! Some of the content inside of it is still made up out of placeholders though, because those assets don’t exist yet (such as sprites), but let’s not ruin the fun. Below is a selection of the more interesting ones. Chapter page The chapter screen will appear whenever you begin a new chapter (a grand surprise). Because some of the chapters end…
