>>13628Wonderful question, anon! It is possible to contribute wallpaper to 2kki. In fact, someone from the Yume 2kki wiki was not only able to get their wallpaper design recently added to the game, but entire maps, too! (It's noildoof, whose stuff is being collected and released by shigurin.) I'm not clear as to exactly how they managed to get in contact with the game staff, but I do know the specific requirements for wallpapers:
- Do not submit anything you didn't make yourself
- There should be nothing in the work that strongly resembles any existing characters from other well-known series
- The content must be suitable for all ages; do not submit anything that would qualify as 18+ material
- The work cannot contain anything overly political, religious, or grotesque
- Don't submit work you know would make others uncomfortable.
All submissions must fit the constraints of RPGMaker 2000. Therefore, images need to be 256 colors (8-bit), with a size ratio of 4:3, which allows the image to be resized to 320 x 240 px without distortion. Images need to be in .png format as well.
I suggest contacting noildoof directly for details, since they're the one with firsthand experience on the matter. They can be reached on the Yume 2kki wiki (Fokkusu1991).

Anyone else feel like there are too many areas and not enough events?
No.13667
>>13666ME! ME! There are a lot of gorgeous areas in this game but those huge areas usually don't have any events. Or any other recognition at all. I mean there are a lot of plain areas with tons of unlockable wallpapers and Kura Puzzle's while some of really good areas don't have any unlockable content or events. That's a shame.

The character set is somewhat ready (there is no action/attack animation), but there are much more to be done…

>>13677Nope. I'm not.
Also, I was going to ask if there is any specific location you, anon, want wallpaper to. I love so many locations that I don't even know which I'd like choose. Any suggestions?

>>13762Is he really?.. Is this even legal?
No.13764
>>13763Uhh, yes and no, as it turns out. Some small things like doors and bubble animations are reused, but neon signs, which I thought were reused at first, are original and only look reused.
It's not illegal as far as I know, it's just kinda..lame is all. Like, I get that Wataru's style is cool and popular, but don't you wanna do something more creative than just replicate it? Don't you have your own artistic vision to express?
No.13765
>>13764Well, than it's not that bad isn't it? New maps have completely different overall theme and atmosphere compared to wataru's anyway. Yes, maybe they have slightly similar artstyle, but… What do you mean about "not having artistic vision" just because those new maps used door and bubble sprites. "Door assets" don't have anything to do with atmosphere vision, aren't they?
I think you're overreacting here a bit.
No.13768
>>13765>I think you're overreacting here a bit.Well, it's my personal impression of it one way or another. Doesn't help that the author wasted no time in adding another Uboa knockoff and another Takofuusen knockoff. Like that isn't done to death already.

Anyone else see the new title screen they added in the recent versions? I kinda prefer the old one, the colors fit 2kki a bit more.

>>13909There's this air that they're entering a new era of 2kki and that things are being kept fresh since they changed the title and all, which I think is pretty cool. I feel like we'll look back at it and go "hey, remember the pre-new title days of 2kki?" if more things get changed and a bunch more gets added. I heard a western map maker got his maps in for the first time or something too, which is really cool; the maps look great as well and I'm looking forward to exploring them.
I just haven't updated yet.

https://mega.nz/#!8I5lmRDa!EpCkvONWYmegACNZeHZjTHLvmYdVQkEHbqjoTjjuVg0This is a Yume 2kki archive with a lot of old versions in it, supposedly. I haven't checked it myself to see what versions it has but it seems like it's worth getting if you want to hold onto some of the versions.

>>13909>>139072kki's title has never been 'set in stone' per se, so it could always be changed in the future. I admit, I don't really like it much either, but you can easily just go in and swap the titles out in the files, can't you?
The new screen seems to be trying to keep up with the other fangames having bits of their protagonists in them, like .flow having Sabi's lower body, Yume Nisshi having Uso's silhouette, LCDDEM having Chie's skull plate, and even the original Yume Nikki having Mado's penis in it.
