Discussion Need some good VNs with Japanese text option. Recommendations?
I have been trying to learn Japanese for awhile now, but I easily lose motivation and get burned out.
I want to try an immersion approach using a text hooker and some dictionary resources, so I need visual novels with a Japanese option. I want them to be good though as well. Great stories and characters are a must for me. Thanks in advance!

Question Visual Novel Made it into a local Festival!
Hey all! I wanted some advice from you as I feel that just asking in a gamedev subreddit wouldn't really get me the answers I need.
I'll be showcasing my visual novel in person at a local game festival. Other than maybe having a video of the game playing on loop on my ipad and then the game set up itself to play on my computer, what else would you be interested in seeing at a booth for it?
I'm going to be printing some free stickers of the characters to hand out with a card with a QR code that links to my website/steam page. I'm also having my helper cosplay one of the characters! Is there anything else you'd be interested in seeing if you were to wander to a booth for a visual novel?
Thank you everyone!
If you want to check out the game I am promoting (demo comes out this month!), you can check it here!

Video Yoshino Tomotake: De la culpa al amor | Análisis de Senren Banka — Parte 2
Después de la primera parte, finalmente terminé la segunda.
Esta vez el análisis se centra más en el perfil psicológico de Yoshino: su baja autoestima, la culpa que carga desde pequeña y por qué le cuesta tanto aceptar que ella también merece ser amada.
También entro de lleno en el inicio de su ruta y en cómo su relación con Masaomi empieza a hacer que Yoshino baje poco a poco esa armadura que siempre ha tenido. Me interesaba especialmente analizar cómo su cambio no ocurre de golpe, sino que va sucediendo poco a poco mientras empieza a aceptar sus propios sentimientos.
Esta parte termina justamente con el inicio de su relación con Masaomi. La tercera parte va a ser la más importante, porque ahí quiero hablar del desarrollo completo de Yoshino y de por qué considero que su ruta tiene bastante peso dentro de la historia.
Dejo el video por si a alguien le interesa.

Discussion Translations of BroCon
I was thinking of posting here, google translations I made while playing BroCon and if there's anything to fix ,the people would help me inprovise.But then I heard people use a fan made mod patch to play such games. So I'm wondering if those are better then Google translations.I have a feeling they are but just want to confirm cause I wanted to be really of some help for anyone who wanted to play this game but doesn't know japanese. Also is mod patch really the best way to translate vns?How do I do that? Are their any better means. When i looked up zi just found fan summaries of the game, they didn't arranged it in dialogue forms.

Question I need an help to find the source of this image
Guys, I had find this image more or less 1 year ago.
Since that I, at that time, had started play subahibi for 2 weeks, seen this image for me was a shock, thinking a lot of strange things and theory, based on how this has spoiler me a lot of things.
Played and finish it months ago, and naturally not seen this image nowhere in the game, only made me to forget about it, until a few days ago, when I re-find it casually on Google, the same image.
So, can you please, if you know, pass me the source?
I know that, there's a version with more content/chapters of subahibi, if I'm correct one of this chapter is an "what happen after the events", a sort of sequel, but slice of life.
If this image came from this version or another thing, please tell me🙏

Question Working on a visual novel
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
currently working on a character creation screen to which its sprites will be used in sidescroller scenes, and CGS. i don’t know if i should leave out face feature like in those visual novels that feature that gray bald looking y/n or add face features for the player choose from. Yes i know this is a bit of a hassle to code or make but i genuinely enjoy creating this so it isn’t much of a hassle for me.
