no. i just started making shit and i did it bad until i didnt. go look up housewarming gift and can you say my name again and then compare that to my latest vn. i think "training" a skill in art is a waste of energy and instead people should just do the thing the want to do and accept their current skill level is what it is, and then your next drawing or writing or project will be better than the previous one cause youve gained more experience. still ive been semi actively writing fro the past 5 years or something and idk ive been drawing on and off for a long time ignoring the time my hands were useless and disabled and trying to kill me

kinda broad question. dont make a jam chat unless you really want to like have exponentially more work to do its just such a hassle to moderate. just pick a theme you care about like some kink or whatever and host it. go look at other jams and reference their rules if you need help with that stuff. just make the page pretty and post about it on socmed and hope someone shares it. hosting jams is extremely exhasting. im autistic as fuck and my social batteries are permanently on 1% and i accidetnally get people upset cause i cant manage my tone and its always pissing me off that i cant come off as nice by default. so ye its always a headache but at the same time seeing others create art and seeing others be inspired makes me feel like im adding good into the world and thats why doing stuff like signing up to judge stupid amount of entries is something i do look forward to. idk

i mean have you read slime feet and snowromancy. idk i think its more like a mental thing. the lack of sprites doesnt make something less immersive or distracting to me so i dont actually know how to respond. if you ask someone who only plays visual novels with sprites youll probs get a real answer. but i do actually think like the approach is kinda wrong like the people who would be distracted by no sprites and have their reading experience ruined by that arent the people you should be worrying about when working on a vn. anyway it all started for me with victim doll and after playing heatwave and talking with death about the mentality of just how little you actually need to tell a meaningful story its been very freeing for me to approach writing with the approach of knowing that literally every singe piece of art is entirely optional be it sprite or cg. making snowromancy i dont think people should even be thinking about the fact that theres no sprites by the time theyre immersed in the story and have managed to get through the first few scenes. you just get used what have been given to you. i cant come up with examples because im too tired but genuinely theres so many vns ive read with jam entries and all that with devs wh didnt add any sprites and its just not a problem in any capacity for me as much as i recognize that if vns did have some faces to imprint on it might be beneficial. but its by no means mandatory or something that gets in the way of immersion

i love all my babies and if you forced me to point a gun at them and leave only one alive i would shoot myself instead. that being said even if slime feet makes me cry every single time i read it or think about it too much because its a manifestation of my covid trauma combined with me being disabled for years to the point where i thought my hands would never recover artistically/narratively i still feel like divide despair deviance is the best work ive done and one that touches me the most and i wish it could get the same kind of visibility something like slime feet or hopeless junction has gotten and im really mad and upset that steam declined htat game and it hurts me a lot and ive been pretty depressed about that for a while now

idk girl i literally just picked my name and say the shit i think about wiht little to no filter. usually i also try to be funny and post things similar to things that make me laugh. tbh a lot of the things i do and say are because im trying to make me laugh. anyway idk what you are after like wdym persona. you can just make up one if you want i dunno what to do here i feel like youre overthinking things even thinking about it from such an angle. its like picking a name for yourself, its literally irrelevant what you pick, in the end it grows on you and gains meaning through its connection. and if you dont like it you change it. its the tranny way of life

definitely Bishoujo Mangekyou -Tsumi to Batsu no Shoujo- . they made toxic yuri straight. i have a thread on it too https://bsky.app/profile/nadianova.fi/post/3mawhtjeq4k2g outside of that i really really really like EXTRAVAGANZA ~Mushi Mederu Shoujo~ and its sequel despite the pacing issues that come from its ridiculous moon logic choice mazes and how 100%ing means you have to spend like half of the games runtime just listening rape moan sfx on repeat which does get a bit old when i just wanted to see all the plot there was but also i didnt want to skip through the scenes either cause they were fine just that there was too many. in one of the yuri routes a bug induced futa dick wraps around the protagonist cock and gives her a cockjob. its great
