this is the best game I've ever played. Better than Yume Nikki even.

Get an editor for the dialogue and stuff.
You really need to improve your English before trying to do anything else.

The general game is really good-looking and the system is interesting. But I feel that in a long term it may become boring if there's no diversity of events happening in the game.
Like, for example, if you find trails of an old civilization telling about mysterious objects that came from the outer space and whatnot, and then in other planet you find more proofs of those "objects", or whatever fits your fancy.
Considering the MC is a biologist, this would be interesting since there's proof of other "civilized" race out there, but he wouldn't be able to dig much of it without the help of a cryptologist/translator/anthropologist and such. So, he can't do much except follow trail by trail and accumulate the messages and such. Etc., which lead to something in the end.
Or something around those lines.

Of course, since this is a demo, you may have actually thought of all of that, but in my opinion the sole "looking for new life-forms" is an idea that will burn too fast if not managed carefully, like adding the mental factor of the MC as a plot device to include hallucinations and such if the gauge is too low.

TL;DR your game needs more dicks.

I agree that some diversity is needed in the gameplay, I will work on that. One thing I plan to do is make you have some more choice as to what happens when you're on a planet, like popping up a choice dialog when you encounter something on a planet. Another thing I removed in the demo which will be in the full game is the galaxy map and traveling between systems, which will also have unique events.
Apart from that, I'm open to suggestions.

Good job motherfucker I love this thing, incredibly good taste, it's great to see something different.

>Apart from that, I'm open to suggestions.
The robots seems like cool guys, give them some very basic AI and make them stupid.
>master-chan I found some minerals! uguu
>auauau! I think I forgot them in the cave!

>>3886
I'll consider it. Very briefly.
>>3885
Is that for me? Oh you shouldn't have. Well if you insist.

Sure! Unsure if these will show up as proper animations or not, but here are some character cycles.

Well, this look fantastic.

Thank you very much! More news:



• All character dolls are finished! Except for Mother Dearest but that one’s minor. Now they just need animated, and that’s the hard part.

• I haven’t touched the program beyond that first demo and honestly still need to learn how to use it. I don’t even know how to make menus and choices! I’ll learn though, I swear.

• All plot points have been finalized and just need written now.

• The visual novel was already going to be short, but it’s going to be even shorter than expected. That’s just the nature of the beast, I guess? I want the pacing to feel right, and making it any longer would drag things out. I won’t know exactly how long it’d take to play through but I think it’d probably be 15 minutes or less to get to an ending.

• Soundtrack is complete! It’s pretty short but features music by Master of the Subway Ninjas, Our Star Is Dying, Knight of Fire, Bull of Heaven, Nick Shutter (me), and Villdyret!

• Seven endings.

I'm not trying to be a dick. I don't think I was excusing myself and I definitely never apologized/took back what I said, though. In any case, being (un)intentionally curt is an unfortunate part of my personality, so please feel free to call me out on my shit. I'm an adult, after all. I can take a little criticism/shitting on myself or the game. Sorry.

>but your attitude stinks like shit
Yeah, well… I just love hard, okay?

>I am looking forward to a LP of this game
Same here, I just hope the person actually goes through with it. I don't know how soon it will be, but I'll post it here whenever I find out it's up and about. In my experience most people seem to forget/become too busy so I wouldn't hold my breath.

And so this whole post isn't mostly just about my attitude, here's something else about the game- costumes are a thing. Yay. We're trying to provide more customization for players in combat, so costumes are more than just aesthetic.

Love the suit, especially the boutteniere. Two things I have to gripe about however, her neck and mouth. I think her neck looks too thick for her feminine frame, compared to this graphic. Necks aren't usually that thick in comparison to the base of the chin. Her mouth just looks.. off. Too frowny clowny for what seems to be like a person of few expressions. At least to me. The mobster portrait looks nice overall but her neck area is what draws my attention- and not in a good way.

Do you have a blog or Twitter for the game?

>>3872
The neck is definitely a point of interest in that graphic, if only because we (me too of course) are so used to not seeing hers. While she's definitely stylized a bit, I was looking more to the actual ratio between neck and head size. Her shoulders are actually fairly broad as well so that factors into it. Still, I'm going to remember what you said and get a few more opinions on it to see if it's really a thing I need to fix. Anatomy is definitely not my biggest strength. I just want to make sure it looks universally weird.
Her frown is actually the same as her normal graphic, it's just hard to see under the scarf and in-game because her portrait was shrunken so much to fit.
Look at the original graphic here ( https://my.carbonmade.com/portfolio/projects/5636176 ) and you'll see for yourself she really is such an unhappy person at all times. In any case, she's actually going to get multiple expressions in the future so she won't always look like that.

Crap, wrong link. It's https://davidponce.carbonmade.com/projects/5636176
i'm a dumb

>>3874
And fuck me again, yeah I have a blog. Sorry, it's late and I worked like 9 hours today. Retail.

So you know, that's likely a zero (0) and not a letter "O".

I couldn't find any direct confirmation for that version number with some quick searching, but I did find this list (for the NA versions):

ABCEN0J13 - Version 1.0
ABCEN0J22 - Version 1.05
ABCEN1J09 - Version 1.1
ABCEN1J12 - Version 1.15
ABCEN1J22 - Version 1.2

Based on the pattern of those version numbers, I'd guess yours is an early 1.0 version.

>>3853
Thanks for the info you gave me

>>3830
Sucks that I don't even know Jynx's site even though I avidly like his games. Thanks for dropping the link.

>>3830
It gets better from 1. Actually I honestly think 1 is the hardest with how bullshit some spellcards are.

Stage 1 boss is not a fucking stage 1 boss in 2hu standards.

>>3832
Eh, I played it in the equivalent of lunatic, and the difficulty was pretty nice.
Then I played it in normal, and even the stage 2 boss managed to get me confused.
I like the challenge, I'm on the side that touhou should be harder (AKA th11 tier) than it actually is, but ZUN is too worried to please the fans, which is a put off.

As for the game, what fucks it up the most is the controls. The "get line" is higher than where it tells you, the speed is kinda shitty, and overall, the dev was kind enough to not let you pick up items by going all the way up because some nigger will spawn and kill you anyway, lol. Nice one.
Also the frame refresh is kinda bugged as well when there are a bunch of bullets on the screen. I don't know if Jinx ever worked in other game before, but I'm guessing this must be his first so it's understandable.

I figured that since this is the first game that it wouldn't be so as good as the others so don't worry; once I cleared this one I'll try the others. If anything, I didn't like the music that much compared to 2ho, but the difficulty really picked me up.

>>3834
Yeah. I believe thats what sets len'en series from 2hu project.

>>3827
>lenen 1
>final boss
>last life no continues left
>she uses her blackhole spellcard
Oh my fucking god.

The neko project they linked is configured so wrong that it won't run well in a bunch of computers. The CPU is overclocked a bit too much. It also depends on each computer, but still 78MHZ for this is way beyond necessary.

That aside, the game looks really insteresting, and the graphics are pretty nice.
One thing I love about Dante is that you can check the MML since it is interpreted instead of being compiled.

Just finished playing it. The art and music direction in this were amazing and genuinely creepy. A+.

I got the ending where everyone died, might go back for another spin.

>>3809
I got the ending where only the fat slob died because I honestly forgot about him. It was a good end.

>>3809
Same here.

But because I wanted to see all the splatter.

Really good. A+, 10/10.
