Wow uh... Sorry to say this but... Copy pasting main character is a bad idea, especially when you can't match the ingame art with it. All 3 of those screenshots have, not kidding here, really shitty art. 2nd and worst screen: Copypasted mouth, from some picture, copy pasted eye as background. 3rd: Copy pasted trees on a white background. And finally the top one, which im pretty sure you saw some of the vastly superior .flow mazes and decided to try and make one yourself (not copy pasted, only copied, badly).Don't hate me for this. If you can't sprite yourself, get someone to do it for you.Get someone to play test your game and give a HONEST opinion before putting it out somewhere.

>>7868Thaks for the critique!I'll be sure to use it toward my game.
I'm really gonna have to agree with >>7868its just...unimpressive looking and the art quality is terrible. The amnesic thing is so overdone and is rather rare in real life as well... I suggest another type of plot or a tweaked one. Like the government is still involved but maybe some type of psychosis is involved and he desperately wants help to find out what is causing it what memories are associated with it and why.The art is so poor because of the clear use of pre-made graphics in stark contrast to a nonshaded environment.The first: looks like a slightly more rounded atari 2600 maze game maze with no features beyond the doorsthe second: just feels like a bad attempt at mimicry and bandwagon hopping. Eyes and a sad looking MS paint figure make it look very badly done and like other failed attempts at creepiness in these type of games.The third: no shading and pre made trees, while premade stuff isn't inherently bad it looks totally out of place here. And another piece of advice if you want this game to stick out: unique start direction and an interesting plot. Make the art related to your character, his mind and feelings, not just because it looks weird, which is how it is coming off.If you can't make your own art or sprites get someone to help you, I could help you with plain ol' art if you are interested.Along your current path this game will be really ugly and uninspired I'm sorry to say, also I suggest a different sprite for the MCGood luck

Yeah I think in just gonna stop making this altogether. It was a REALLY fucktarded desicion to use RMVX. It has a really constricting tileset rule and it doesn't have the same leniency as RM2k3, so I'm righting the wrong and starting a new project in there.It also wouldnt hurt to read some spiriting tutorials, since I sortof half-assed the while thing ...>>7871If you could help a little on the spriting that would be awesome. Im havent sprited before but could get you some pretty useful concept art.And I think I might just turn this into a brainstorming thread. I want to incorporate some sort of dark voodoo magic into this new, not half-assed project.

>>7874Oh, i've never sprited before, I meant I could make you different art backgrounds and maybe fullscreen events that involve artI have an art website, but am art sure if I want to post it on here, so is there an email or some other way i can contact you besides here.so what is the plot of this new not half assed project

>>7883If you could send me a link that would be awesomecarcinoGeneticyst@gmail.comI was thinking of making a game where the main girl finds some book somewhere and the book holds some weird magic powers. And now she has to figure out how to repay the dark things that now stalk her house or else her soul is theirs.Or the main girl was kidnapped/raped and the dreams account her memories.I could ask some of my frans on dA to help me with the sptiting.

>>7886the first one sounds like it may workThat second one doesn't sound very ya know...interesting, sounds like one of those theories that Yume Nikki gets every day.Make sure if you want to involve weird ass magic or voodoo/voodou that you do some research.Pic related, its Baron Samedi that I drew (what do you think of it)
>>7886You know, I suggest that whatever you do for a story, you make it as vague as possible. Leave people wondering what that was about. Half the fun with these games is figuring out just what was really going on. What the story behind the events you saw is. If you tell us what happened from the get go, then you've just told us the answer to the puzzle that the game presents, and that's not nearly as fun, now is it?

>>7889This looks legit >>7890I'll make sure to make it as obscure as possible.

Just uploading some concept art for the Main Character.et me know if any other YN fangame chharacter uses the hammer effect as a weapon so i can change it.
>>7893Smile from .flow uses a hammer. And while he's not the protagonist, he is arguably the second most important character in the game Last edited 11/07/20(Wed)18:44.

>>7893How about an effect that can kill that isn't a weapon for once? I'd be interested to see a "Boxer" or "Martial Artist" effect.

>>7895What about the virus effect ?An effect that makes the target make sick noises and slowly fade away.Or the voodoo effect, she pulls out a doll and stabs it and the enemy gets stabbed or something.>>7894Ah, i see.

I think that a magical effect that kills things could work.Did you get my email btw?Also you should maybe edit your first post to reflect whats happening now.So is the MC trapped within her house? That is a different spin on 'stuck in the room' thing. perhaps different rooms let you access different places.Give me some more of your ideas we can work with. What are the enemies? Are they monsters? Are they people?What are some game themes you want to include?If you want to talk about things you don't want public just send me an email and we can talk more there.Pic is 'silence' maybe it could inspire you or something.
>>7902Saw the website, and i think I could DEFINETELEY incorporate some of that into the game.So unlike most of the other YN fangames, you are actually able to explore her house to an extent. After leaving her bedroom door you go through a hallway which leads to the living room. The nexus in this game will be like a reflection of the living room.Also i think i might turn this into a collaborative project

Also i was wondering if any fg used moped/scooter for propelled acceleration
>>7905I believe the scooter is being used and Yume 2kki has a motorcycle I think i bike could work, like you find it in a very atmospheric place like this picCan you email me? I can work on some art if you we can settle some things, Last edited 11/07/21(Thu)12:06.

And about the sprites, I already have the MC sprite done, but we can make yours an Easter egg sortof thing.And about the areas and ideas, just email me. My adress is somewhere in this thread.

This is a call for anyone who can do music and background noises, we need some quality music and sound effects. Please come forward if you are interested in helping.
"I started working on a fangame, do all the resources for me"/Fg/gots these days...inb4 better good than original
>>7969It was more for "anyone who wants to help can" not make everything for us.
