was working and then I suddenly felt nostalgic so I doodled this guy. Never really drew him with his hair down before haha
Yesssssssssssssssssss.
He looks older. Kinda makes me want to do a “where they are now,” short. I remember tooaya musing about the lives of the RE:A++ cast circa Backstage Pass (seven year time jump, in case anyone was wondering). Derek’s probably isn’t what anyone expected. XD
Sakevisual is heading to A-KON this weekend! We will be located in the Trinity Exhibits Hall sharing a table with Sayuri Studios. I don’t know our table number yet, but look for a nice Li Mei poster. And me, I guess (picture out of date - current hair much longer).
Come by and say hi! I like meeting new people and catching up with old friends. We have free art cards, and if you ask nicely I’ll give you a sticker.
Only one question this week. No problem~
I am making a Visual Novel of my own and though I’ve searched to my best abilities, I never found out how to make a Credit Roll at the end. Could you help me? :(
I assume you’re working in Ren’py? In general, I’d recommend directing all questions to the Ren’py questions board, as you’ll get more useful (and faster) responses there. There’s also the Ren’py Cookbook board, which has all sorts of neat little bits of code that you can use for your game.
The method I use is a little obsolete. It uses ParameterizedText, places all the credits inside it, and then I use ATL to move it across the screen. I’m pretty sure (but I haven’t actually tried - so I could be wrong?) that with the current version of Ren’py, it’s a better idea to use a Text displayable.
General note: All future questions about how to do things in Ren’py will be answered with a direct to the Ren’py help board. While my code is functional, it is sometimes inelegant, and I’m not comfortable teaching people messy coding practices.
Taking a break from working on BP to draw BP fanart l D /hit
John as Sherlock Holmes, as inspired by this Monday’s Q&A content. /o/
I-It’s so beautiful…
Also old(isn) sketch of Aki Mizutani of the Jisei games by SakeVisual.
Aki Mizutani for Fanart Friday. Because Jisei needs love too!
Will Sian be voiced? Are only major characters voiced, or is it full voice acting?
Ah, fie on me for not tagging Q&R Mondays. Well, I have gone back and tagged all the Q&R Monday posts, so responses are now available at all times! This is the answer to the first part, BTW. And everyone gets a voice. While I do keep Kangai unvoiced in Jisei, I’ve never fully understood why minor bits and supporting cast wouldn’t get any voice at all. S’probably just me, though.
Is Kangai gonna have a voice of his own for the last 2 games? Since Sian (the MC) will be having a voice. It’d be pretty neat to see how Kangai might sound like.
Wow, so many voice questions! And EVN makers tell me no one cares about voices. For the sake of consistency, the MC in all of the Jisei games will remain unvoiced. That doesn’t necessarily mean you won’t hear what Kan sounds like eventually, but it won’t be through that particular venue.
The Prestige is an excellent show about two magicians, and for some reason I can imagine Benito liking that show. I keep thinking John would like Sherlock BBC… XD The game’s not even out, and here are my silly headcanons.
If you’re looking for inspiration on writing Benito scenes, The Prestige is an amazing show about two magicians. Just thought I’d drop you a recommend~ <3
Whoa… everyone likes The Prestige. XD Benito does take inspiration from various real-world sources, including one of my favorite magicians. And John is definitely a fan of Sherlock. He’s kind of hoping he’ll be invited to be in it one day.
It’s a beautiful morning, kids. Let’s respond to things!
Who are the artists in your team?
If you’re looking at Jisei or Ripples, you’re looking at Deji. If you’re looking at RE: Alistair++ or Backstage Pass, you’re looking at tooaya. We’ve got several more, all conveniently listed in the credits on individual game pages located at our official site.
Are you planning on having cameos of the characters from Re: Alistair in Backstage Pass? I’d love to see more about the R:A cast.
It is a mystery.
Hello! I was wondering if Backstage pass will have option to mute/adjust volume of individual characters’ voice if desired (instead of voice overall), because I noticed JP visual novels do support that option and it would be helpful. Thank you!
Yes, we actually do have the mute option built in already. ::thumbs up::
This is why I need to stop following the twitter of JP at VNsNow
Because dad rented Bioshock Infinite and we had a marathon of it last night and all I could think about was how perfect his idea of a crossover between Jisei and BI was. And dammit, my mind’s going to be thinking about this all day //shakes fist hhhhhhh
That bottle is also the one with the shield btw
I am so okay with this.
It’s been hinted at before, but here’s the official confirmation. You will be able to buy clothes for Sian and dress her up in Backstage Pass. And you’ll actually get to see the outfit on her sprite. And her fashion choices will affect how other characters see her. Yaaaaay.
It just occurred to me to ask, but out of curiousity, will how she dress make any difference on whether you can ‘win’ a guy? Like I know you said it affects how they’ll see her, but does that also include any affection flag like, say, if you don’t dress her this way he won’t be interested or something of the sort?
Think of when you meet a person for the first time - what they wear will have an influence on your opinion of them. But as you get to know them, their personality and actions shape your opinion more than their clothing. The same goes for this. The clothes you choose can make a character more inclined to like you from the getgo, but it’s not the final deciding factor. If there’s a shirt you just really like wearing no matter what, it won’t stop you from getting a romance ending.
