I may or may not be making a Visual Novel with the Ren'Py engine and this seemed as appropriate of a place as any to bring it up Lame placeholder title screen that covers my ass is lame: Fate Stay Night as a placeholder background is obvious (you'd get tired of staring at a text filled checkered screen too!) Honestly, I feel like the hardest thing for me will be making the character models and backgrounds. I'm looking into buying a drawing tablet that plugs into my computer and lets me draw on it. The Ren'Py engine has been really generous and easy going on me. As for the story, well, the script has come along nicely. I've got it sitting at 8 pages long in open office so far and it grows bit by bit each day. I just wanted to share it because I'm excited, really. It'll range from free to $7 (if the art turns out really well and I can find a way to distribute it, lol). I look forward to showing off the finished product in about 10 years! That's really cool Vroom! I wish you luck with that. If I can help in any way please let me know. Mind you I can't draw worth a shi- I mean my art is AMAZING but maybe not what you're looking for >.> not a music expert or anything either but yeah. Is this your project or something your helping another with? I'd be curious to hear a bit more about what kind of VN you're going for. Thanks, Isi! I could use help stealing a piano and a guitar, that would shave off another two years as opposed to saving up to buy them (I'm going to see if there isn't some free program that lets my computer emulate playing a piano and/or guitar). This is my project and love note to Visual Novels in general. There is quite a few references that one might spot when reading through it. Firstly, the gatari in the title was ripped from Katanagatari, which translates this as Story of Ikari. Secondly, there is a dude named Tomoyo Funihara (a reference to both Tomoyo and Sunihara from Clannad). There are also a ton of Sunrider references: Ikari is a reference to Icari (who was actually the inspiration for this story), both have a weapon called Phoenix (the one in Sunrider has a Mecha, while this one's is a sword), both are proficient in sword use, and are mercenaries, and the Mikawa having red armor is a loose reference to PACTs red colored ships. You can find a large portion of the script here, if interested: pastebin.com/yY5YHP7L
