#1827248 Making a neo-noir yuri visual novel!

Posted by Crouching Bacon on 29 September 2017 - 02:58 PM

Heya, Bacon here.

 

Just wanted to share a thing I was working on, for the 2017 yuri game jam.

It's called Deliverance, a non-commercial neo-noir VN.

 

Here's a devlog thread, if that strikes your interest.

We're also on itch.io!

 

Currently looking for an artist to help with CGs. o>

 

Thanks for dropping by.




#1785125 Donation is back

Posted by Crouching Bacon on 04 March 2017 - 12:27 PM

It looks like your default currency isn't USD, so that's why you're getting that extra screen. Anything roughly equivalent to 10USD is sufficient for donation benefits. I can convert any paypal supported currency myself as well.

 

Oh, my issue wasn't the currency. It was the missing part of the screen, for some reason the button wouldn't show up for me.

But it's all good now. For some reason it worked properly today, so I guess it's not a browser problem.

If people are still interested, perhaps I should draft some co-GMs to help me translate the bare bones of the updates into proper ones

 

*raises hand*

 

I mean, I also post pretty damn slowly, but I really don't want to see this RP fizzle out, so...

I for one don't mind if this RP gets updated slowly.

 

Here's to hoping it won't live up to its name though! :o

Amaris, the Eternal

 

Flashes of light and shadow took me in and out of consciousness. Perhaps I have died a thousand deaths over without being aware. When will this end? It was then that I began to fall. The darkness enshrouded me once more, fragments of the previous moments slipping away from my mind’s eye.

 

When my eyes opened, I stared, unmoving, at the brightness that surrounded me. It was not disembodied or ethereal; instead, it shone with color, filtered by glass of various hues. I sat up, relishing the feeling of my body against the cool, obsidian floor. To my right was an altar adorned with precious metals, made with such craftsmanship that even the beasts and men engraved upon it seemed to be alive, frozen forever in their conflict. I would have touched it, but I was not alone.

 

Finally, I stood up and acknowledged the winged woman with a short bow. Perhaps I was intruding-a place such as this might not be open to strangers.

 

“Pardon me. I-“

 

She cut me off, her voice calm but flippant. “You are The Eternal. Yes, I already know.”

 

“The… Eternal? Well, I didn’t know that.” I looked down and caught a glimpse of my hand, which now bore a strange circular symbol.

 

“I am Liesaerl von Asteria, acting governor of Em, the nation that floats in the sky.”

 

My mouth opened and closed but I could not think of anything to say. Liesaerl combed a feather from her great wings, then sighed softly and pointed to a window to my right. I nodded and went over to see for myself, this nation of Em.

 

“The clouds!” I shouted. “How is this possible?”

 

Beneath the tower was solid ground, and a town as far as the eye could see. But the horizon was markedly different; where there should have been a sea of water, here was a sea of cotton-white clouds. Faced with such a fantastic environment and various other curiosities, my body decided that it had enough. A cavernous growl rumbled through my stomach, and for the first time, I realized how hungry I was.

 

The governor merely raised an eyebrow and tilted her head. My face grew warm; an intruder and a famished one at that, not exactly the first impression I was trying to make.

 

“Come, Eternal one. We shall speak of these matters over a meal. It would be poor manners to keep a guest hungry.”

 

“Very well. Thank you, Governor.”

 

Was there anything else I could have said?




#1761419 [TOPICS] Writing Challenge II

Posted by Crouching Bacon on 20 August 2016 - 01:40 AM

It actually wasn't until my last two years in high school that I tried to write, though I was the sort of kid who would read non-academic related books in the back of the room while the teacher was blabbering on and on about something. My start in writing was likely motivated by the need to escape boredom. I started out with fanfiction (surprise, surprise) then I moved on to dabble in poetry (not my strongest suit, but it's fun~), then eventually tried short stories (they're usually less than 5000 words, I suppose I have to work on my stamina or focus or something). Then I discovered Batoto's RP section in college, and here I am today.

Between En’s radiance and the void’s peace, I found myself torn. Her hands promised a future, but for it I must suffer. Why must I suffer? The darkness called out to my soul, seducing me with the serenity of eternal rest.

 

Emptiness. To be free from pain, I must empty my mind.

 

Detachment. To be free from pain, I must forget my heart.

 

Death. To be free from pain, I must silence my soul.

 

From the depths of my being, I began to feel strife. Now that I no longer suffer, was this all that darkness had to offer? To become one with it is to lose myself.

Selfishness, perhaps, that I listened to the stirrings of my spirit and chose life.

 

“Your loyal vessel, Amaris, shall accept this burden.” I took her hands in mine. “Oblivion be damned.”

And here's the CS!

do forgive the gratuitous latin

 

I'm keeping Ataraxia, but I'm currently undecided about two of the skills, one of which is a self-sacrificing block that absorbs all damage and shields the target/s, or a critical hit enhancing skill (dunno how you're gonna manage the multiplier for that fayfay, might be a headache to implement >_>)

 

was thinking of my character as some kind of failed paladin in the past, which inspired the blocking skill. of course, her identity is mostly speculation on my part!

Aww, that boy in X's update reminds me of Garm ^3^

 

 

Man, Paper got 'Time' affinity. That's some sweet rolling right there. Congrats. :3

 

Also I like that me and Munnin both got 'Darkness' affinity, and we both have similar horns on our heads.

 

Actually, I wonder if that roll's really a random result... or if the GM has some nefarious plans up his sleeve!

 

I just can't wait for the two to lock horns and fight like angry goats.
