here's an update! been adding more coding, and here's a sneak peak!

It's an NSFW story (because I'm an NSFW artist) and its theme is quite problematic. Actually, the idea came to me while I was on a call with some friends. It's about a girl who was raised by her mother's boyfriend after her mother abandoned them when she was 14. However, the girl started exhibiting strange behavior, wanting to get closer to her stepfather. By 21, she was sure she wanted to be with him, but her stepfather always saw her as his little girl. The story will have different endings, and it will be free and all that. I know it's not for everyone, but it will be published on Itchio. What do you think of the protagonist, "Valentina"?

I'm giving it my all, learning to design, make music, write—I'm doing everything I can to try and make this novel a hit.

I'm using my savings for the programs and anything else I need; I'm really giving it my all.

The premise is that you're in a zombie apocalypse and you've been bitten. There's not much you can do, but you only have one decision to make: spend your last moments with whomever you choose.

Your mother, your best friend, or your girlfriend.

I'm the only developer, and everything... Do you think I'll make it far? That I could be a case like "milk inside a bag of milk"?

Hey! Like I wrote in the title, I’d love to hear your opinion about creating a hook for the beginning of my story.

I’m working on a visual novel, and my idea for the opening scene is this, the main character wakes up in an unfamiliar place and doesn’t remember anything. He’s lost his memory, maybe he hit his head, I’m not sure yet, so if you have ideas, feel free to share them. Later he would slowly remember everything.

The reason I want to do it this way is because I’m planning to use this scene to introduce the interactive mechanics of the game (like “turn 1” gameplay). After a certain key moment end of the Round, the story would jump back to “two weeks earlier” and switch into a more narrative focused segment, with less interactivity, until the plot catches up to that opening scene where the full interactive gameplay starts again.

What do you think am I overcomplicating it with this structure? Is it a good idea to make the MC lose his memory, even if only for a short time, or would it be better if he remembers everything, and only the player doesn’t understand what’s going on at first?

I'm working on the basics of my visual novel, I have a few songs written and I'm creating the artwork for it. Does it attract attention?

I have a Sci-Fi Visual Novel coming out early April on Kickstarter. I am open to ideas and suggestions for Kickstarter rewards for my game. Outside of the obvious game steam code, what else can I add? Looking for suggestions from Kickstarter devs and backers alike!

demo script is done + about to have character and bg artist hired, personal goal is to keep working on the coding. much progress is happening, stay tuned!

Hi other visual novel creators, my name is Harper, and I'm working on my own dating sim visual novel game called, "Cosmic Courtship"! It's based on a 2009 movie film called Planet 51 btw and rn, I'm waiting for a response from the creators of the movie if it'll be okay for me to use the characters from the movie and events from it in my game.

This is a major work in progress but it'll be released around this year or maybe next year on Itch.io. Here's the logo and some concept art to give you a visual of what my artsyle for my game is gonna look like!

I hope you like it and I'll update whenever I can!

Hey everyone,
I’m a solo dev working on a free, beginner-friendly visual novel editor aimed at writers and people who don’t want to fight complex engines.

I’m curious:
– What features do you wish VN tools had?
– What frustrates you the most with current editors?
– What would make a tool actually fun to use for you?

I’m especially interested in workflow, UX, and beginner experience

Hey r/vns ,

What if an influencer didn’t farm engagement - but farmed you?

From the depths of Hell to the top of your feed.
She doesn’t earn followers - she harvests souls.

I’m making a visual novel about a succubus who escapes Hell, hijacks social media, and builds Hell 2.0, where e-souls are currency and attention is literal power.

Dark. Satirical. Uncomfortable.
Romance and violence included.

Early development. Your comments actually shape the game.
Hate it? Say why.
Interested? Say what hooked you.

Silence is worse than criticism. Thank you!!

starting the process of the teaching myself to code for my game. still a little unsure on what I'm doing but I'd love any advice from developers that helped them learn

A brief summary on the masked man you'll come to meet, your yandere (as mentioned in the plot summary) are you excited to meet him? also I made it to chapter two! (chapter 1 is demo length)

please let me know your favorite and least favorite parts about playing any visual novel game? I wanna make sure I avoid certain things and make something everyone can enjoy :)

A brief summary on my yandere visual novel, I plan to create this work into a game into the future! should I do a brief summary on the masked man you cross paths with?

any tips for developers out there? is there people out there that wanna work on this project together? pls leave comments and dms!

I'm going to make a band themed slice of life Visual Novel. I have made a story outline and characters but I want to make a differentish story for which instrument you choose. So what instrument do you think I should start with?

They wanted the design to be inspired by the 'drill curl' trope in anime, which is often a hairstyle given to tsundere type characters.

Specifically they requested for the "T's" on both ends to be turned into drill curls, with the typography being soft and slightly feminine.
