doomsday preppers always keeping rusty tins of food in their basement but never building springhouses and smokehouses and paddocks for future livestock 🤨 those canned peaches are only going to bring you so far babe

are you going to study medicinal herbs and their cultivation or are you just going to keep stockpiling weapons like a little bitch 😩

going to shoot your way out of an infected cut, dumbass?

* Look whose next on the list of characters~ 💙✨

“I have all these OCs! But no story…”

make a fighting game

But what if half your ocs are softys and not made for fighting?

this post changed the game

Hey btw if you don’t know how to program, you should check out [novelty], which is a free Visual Novel creation software. Absolutely no programming required, and it’s super easy to use, I played with it some when I was a teen but the only reason I didn’t do much with it is cuz I made my story complicated and had like 5000 different branching routes that kept spawning new routes and made myself confused LMAO

But yeah, it’s a WYSIWYG with a really straight-forward GUI, if I remember correctly.

It even comes with some free backgrounds and characters and stuff, and this is what it looks like:

Did I mention it’s super duper free? It hasn’t been updated since 2010, but it has basically all you’d need to make a simple visual novel.

Just make sure your DirectX runtime is updated, cuz it can act buggy if it’s outdated, but this program is so old that I doubt it’d even be an issue lol

holy shit

This is so cool? Can you imagine fanfic in this format?

YO

@becausedragonage @ashidoodle can I recommend Choice Script? It’s like a choose your own adventure coding program. The finished product looks like this, where every option sends you down a different path:

They are literally books you can play. You can even insert your own character’s name and pronouns and that would make writing reader inserts so much easier And as a writer who can not art, writing and making dating sims and games is more convenient.

The coding is also super simple and easy to learn and all it requires other than the program files is a text editor. And just like that you can start typing up like you would your own fanfics or stories. Plus it’s very versatile so you can make your game/book as simple or as complicated as you want, and even implement stats and inventory systems.

AND CHOICE SCRIPT IS ALSO SUPER DUPER FREE. THE COMPANY EVEN PUBLISHES YOUR FINISHED GAME FOR YOU AND GIVES YOU ROYALTIES IF YOU CHOOSE TO SELL IT. THE PROGRAM STILL GETS UPDATED AND  THE COMPANY PUBLISHES BOOKS EVERY MONTH INCLUDING THE FANMADE ONES. THERE’S ALSO A FORUM FOR PEOPLE TO POST WIPS AND TALK ABOUT CHOICE SCRIPT AND GET HELP.

And there’s Ren'py, also for visual novels!

@raimeyl @mexicanesecat 👀

Holy shit

Ooooof I’m gonna use thessee

For any burgeoning digital storytellers/narrative game devs out there! :)

Also good ol’ Twine is incredibly easy to learn for text games with multiple choices! You don’t even need to deal with images if you don’t want to and it works in the browser (there’s also a downloadable version) and it generates html files that you can play in your browser.

Anyway if you want excuses/community for making visual novels NaNoRenO is about to start (March2022 for those reading this message in the future.) on itch.io (like nanowrimo, but about visual novels!)

I would not use choicescript as they’re known for silencing trans users talking about transphobia in their staff and have published a few games where mental ill people have been demonised as dangerous or gay men have been fetishised as “essentially female”/“lesbian women are essentially men” by their authors which is uhhhh

Awesome 👏🏽

I need to start doing this because I sit in a chair so much of the day. Need to start doing this in the morning and like, go for a walk or something.

i was in the designing mood today,.,… so meet Halo !! With many tales yet to be told, he wanders around the multiverse, but can mainly be found in outertale, as she likes to blend in. 🌙✨🌟

* The Duchess is always welcome for guests.

Noble: You look wonderful, Lady Toriel.

Evania: My~ This old soul is touched.

Noble: You don't look a century old to me.

Glyph: I agree, your soul has never changed one bit.

Evania: My my~ I have quite the smooth talking skeletons now, do I?

Glyph: ^^✨

Noble: I don't think I am?

Glyph/Evania: ... ...

Hey guys just a quick reminder to reblog artists' work!

People put lots of time and effort into their art so it's good to share it with others!

Getting nice comments on anything is such a great feeling. Not only does it make me like my content better and helps me get motivated to make more, it just lets me know that someone really enjoyed something I made.

Someone reblogged one of my art posts saying my artstyle is cute and I’ve been thinking about it all day. 

Normally when I look at my art I can see every mistake and flaw and I don’t like it as much, but after I saw that tag I looked at my art and went “Yeah! It is cute!”

Art, writing, basically anything created by someone, is an extension of that person. Sometimes we need validation in order to have motivation. Even if we create for ourselves, sharing that creation and getting no reaction can be discouraging. 

Creators love reblogs, but if you follow someone and you like the stuff they make, try leaving a nice tag in your reblogs! Even just keyboard spam, screaming, telling them their content is good, anything positive you can share will make them really happy!

I made a helpful infographic to explain

* The Noble Papyrus gives you his greetings!

Glyph: I bet you look handsome, bro.

Noble: I appreciate the comment, brother.

Noble: If I am allowed to know, whose next?

Glyph: That's a secret. ✨

Noble: I understand.

Glyph: ... I miss the times when you got so excited when Lady Toriel showed you a green rock—

Noble: BROTHER—!

Toriel: Ho Ho, I feel that the skeleton brothers are having fun once again. ^^

* Oooh, looks like Mama Goat is up next! I wonder what she looks like. 👀
