Nusantara: Bermuda Triangle
UPDATE 06/05/2017!
To celebrate the campaign, I prepared a lots of sneak peeks today!
What I did last week:
- Revised typos & the Spanish translation
- Fixed a bug + updated the demo
- Did 5 forest variations for Summer forest C & D
- 2 sketches for a Spring village.
I was planning to write script this month, but there are some backgrounds(BGs) I have to finish first >< I finished the majority of forest BGs I needed, not all their variations yet, but... now I'm only left with buildings BGs & 1 winter BG to do *cries*
If you're wondering what is 'Background variations':
However, there are some BGs that has more variation than Morning, Afternoon, & Night. What is that, you ask? It's a secret~
As for what kind of buildings BGs I'm currently making, here's a sneak peek of one of the Spring village sketches I made last week:
*Note: The finished product may differ from sketch*
Was it fun to make the sketch? YAY! But was it also fun coloring it? NAY!!
Seriously, I thought my back will give up on me T.T I have a habit of leaning toward my laptop when drawing details -and it's still the basic color with minimum shading! *tempted to flip the table*
So yeah, I guess you get the gist of my struggles with buildings. I particularly need this one to show my "In Game Cameo" backers though so I'm going to prioritize it ><
Also, I prepared a reward for my $10 patrons today! The step by step BG tutorial came earlier than usual and it's featuring the Ruins!
Phew! That is a long update O.O
I hope you guys enjoy the sneak peeks, 'cause it's not everyday I post so many of them at once x'D
Lastly, I'm happy to see the campaign going steady! Thank you everyone! *hugs* I'm crossing my fingers it will stay that way until the main goal is reached :'3
Now I'm sure you're tired after reading so much x'D I hope you guys have a great day! Thank you for reading and see you again next time!

Hi!
So, I'm not quiet sure how to start this but I'll give it a shot.
When I first entered the wonderful world of VNs, Nusantara: Legand of the Winged Ones was one of the first I played (and I loved it!). That was about, what, a year ago?
Ever since I've been interested in VNs but haven't had a lot of time to play them and I don't have money to buy commercial VNs. That's besides the point.
Recently, I've been inspired to, well, make my own Visual Novel...
I feel like it's silly, and I'm a little young to put myself into a big project but looking at what you've done...
I was just wondering if maybe I could context you and ask you a few things about making a VN? You seem like a super chill girl and I dunno. You seem really inviting. And I'm not in the whole VN community. Feel free to ignore if you want but I figured I needed a place to start, heh.
Sorry for the giant comment!!!
Hi, SalveteVictoria!
I'm really happy to hear I inspire you to make your own visual novel! >\\\< I believe that anyone can do ot given the time & effort.
And yes! Feel free to ask me anything ^.^- I suggest to try and experiment with Renpy first though. It's a lot more convenient & efficient since I can't be there to show you directly.
At first, try simple things like; changing title screen's background, how to insert your own sprites in game, and customize the textbox/GUI!
Ren'py is really famous in lemmasoft forum so you can find lots of tutorials there! You can google 'lemmasoft how to customize GUI' and it will pop out x'D I spend a lot of time here trying things through errors & trials.
It's also OK if you want to ask me about what art assets needed to make a VN ^_^)b
Come again!

Thank you so much! It means a lot you took some time to answer me ^^
I'll definitely check out Ren'Py.
If I do have any more questions I'll just comment again :P
If I do go through with my idea, you'll be the first to know about it :3
