A Clown Girl Breaks Into Your Computer And Holds You Hostage While Yapping About Visual Novels?!

APRIL FOOLS!! …except the joke is me because I made a 4.6k visual novel on how to make visual novels in a day.

A clown girl breaks into your computer and holds you hostage while yapping about visual novels?!

What are visual novels?
Artwork
Writing
Audio
Engines
Game dev basics
Game jams
Releasing visual novels
Marketing

Yes, this is actually informative and intended to be a beginner's guide to visual novel development!

But I could be in front of trailers on a movie set! The background informs the play of the location and helps establish the setting and tone.

You can't have a visual novel without the novel, that's for sure! The writing portion of VNs is just as important as the art.

need to make a joke about virche evermore but it involves a MASSIVE spoiler for Le Salut so i'm hiding it below the cut - click at your own risk.

Still not 100% sure how I feel about this reveal lol because on the one hand WOW amazing plot twist and really cool but on the other hand I am a huge Ankou fan who finds Adolphe incredibly bland and kinda irritating soooo...

I'll post more Virche thoughts as I manage to write them all up - currently my playthrough notes are just rambling lists in my Backloggd journal lol. Going to play through all the good endings soon <3

The Big Otome Game Survey

As someone who's been playing otome games for over ten years now and has seen the number of games available in English increase by a fair am

Hello all,

I've decided to launch a big otome game survey, looking at most popular characters across several popular otome games (and whether there are any correlations in terms of people liking the same characters across multiple games). You can also vote for your favourite otome game among the options listed.

If you're interested in otome games, please do participate and reblog this post! You don't need to have played all of the games on the list in order to participant, just answer for any that you have.

The survey will close at 10pm (22:00) (UTC+1) on May 1st 2025 and I will publish the results sometime after.

Any issues with the survey just let me know in the replies on this post!
