Watchers

You guys remember when TCAST won the Visual Novel Festival? Well, a lot of talented artists donated a commission as a prize for that. And because I had so many commissions, I thought, I could ask for TCAST fanart... or I could ask for something more AWESOME than TCAST fan art.

Which would be, a whole new game.

"Love and Keggers" will be a pretty short game made up of three shorter stories about college students who wake up after a frat boy party and their dealing with the aftermath of the party.


Keri and Carmen meet for the first time at the party, and end up in bed together, but do they have a chance at a relationship beyond a one-night stand?

When Sean and DeAndre, roommates and friends, find themselves in bed together, their relationship, their living situation, and their sexualities all come into question.

Tatiana wakes up in a strange house with a hangover and memories of a friendship she might have destroyed trying to turn it into something more. Fortunately, there's a cute punk boy on hand to rant about it to.

Because there will be eight different artists on the project, generally contributing about one piece of art per artist, the art of the game will vary wildly, but that's the nature of the project. As of right now, a draft of the script is done.

Can't wait to get this game done and into your hands! :D

;____; can I just need to calm down since I came home after staying in my friend's house and just read your "That cheap and scared thing" (my friend actually show it to me and play it in her house before I came home;; ) and I am actually downloading it to reread it again ;___;

your kinetic novel was just wonderful and heartwarming at parts! GDKGHLSK after I finished it, we both talk about it and says that Autumn must have brought them back as eternalloves Iknow;; since my friend and I are both talker of what might happen and would imagine how it should ends;;;even when its come to head canons

but can I say....YOUR NOVEL IS SO AWESOME and I can't wait for the next one, Darling's Love (was it?) since my friend is planning to download thru XD;;

Awwwwwwww I'm so glad you liked it so much! :D And thank your friend for me for showing it to you! That's so awesome of her!

(Always imagine how it ends! XD Also your head canon and mine are the same, so that's good!)

Alas, the Darlings Lost project has been scrapped due to issues I had with it. O.o Namely a dramatic event that's a huge part of the story happened to me IRL, and then I realized I had written it in a cheap cliched way and also I didn't have the emotional energy to rewrite it while I was living it. o.o; Alas I'm not working on anything major right now, a couple of smaller things like "Love and Keggers" are on my plate. XD;; Please feel free to harass me to get my ass in gear on awesome stuff again.

She said you're welcomes! :D

XD I think I should draw fanart for that;;;

I see and understand; ^^; since the same friend was excited at that moment after she read your "That cheap and scared thing" :) Just take your time, and maybe you might get a better idea or something to complete the script you wrote but in other words, just take your time, depend on what you're doing now is good to start with small things before you do something awesome again! :D Oh no, I wouldn't harass you, you know; I kind used to artists/developers who has their life ahead of them ^w^. Btw thanks for the reply, its weird, that I was actually happy haha! X3

Hello~

Many months after your comment on a version of TCAST that my friend did (the LHF one here [link] , in case you don't remember), I actually saw it, and for some reason I had a compulsive need to say hello to you. . 3. I haven't played the actual TCAST yet, but I've been meaning to, so hopefully I'll get on that at some point soon. xD

I know it's been a while since you played, but I was wondering if you could point out exactly how Darren is Mary Sue-ish. Him being originally my character, I'm wondering if that's just something my friend did when she was using him, or something I can work on myself.

Also, thank you for noting Amalia is deranged. For some reason, that meant a lot to me.... probably because she's supposed to be, so if I'm not the only one seeing it, it must be working. xD

Now that I've got it on my mind, I'll probably play TCAST soon. I'm sure it's absolutely wonderful~ Thank you for your time. =3

That awkward moment when your comment goes away before you finish writing it... XD;;

Hello! Thanks for dropping a comment.

You should probably play TCAST before you decide if you should accept any advice from me XD;; I'm just an amateur here too. My protagonist also struggles with Mary Sueishness, though I was aware of that coming into the story so I tried to make her more complex.

You would be in a much better position to judge whose fault the Mary Sue-ishness of Darren is, but I wouldn't get too hung up on that, because even if it is part of the original character you can always change things about him to make him more interesting.
I don't remember enough about him to be of any help to you, but I've been trying to find some guides for you but all of the guides are basically listing individual interesting traits as if it's bad to make a character interesting. XD;; Like "Don't give a character distinctive tattoos!" and I'm like "Yeah, that totally helps writing."

In my comments on LHF I said I couldn't get a good sense of his personality. Here's an interesting little guide which has some pointers on how to write a three-dimensional character. Maybe something here will be interesting or helpful. :3

Oh yay, you replied~ x3

I did play TCAST (I replied to my own comment so not sure if you saw it, but I like... cried. > 3>)

Playing through both games yet again, I think it's not so much that they're Mary Sues, it's just with the way the story is told it's harder to get a good grip on their personality. o 3o *Noticed this after writing comments. Seriously, I should've just written it after playing TCAST/replaying LHF.* But I shall most definitely look at that guide and see if it'll help me~

And yes, not giving a character a tattoo seriously helps. /sarcasm xP
