That's what feedback is for, I guess. Let some people play your game and have them tell you what they liked, didn't like, and what they think should be changed.

Abnormal, bizarre, curious, eccentric, exceptional, extraordinary, far-out, freakish, funny, odd, offbeat, off-the-wall , outlandish, out-of-the-way, outré, quaint, queer, singular, strange, uncommon, unconventional, unusual, wacko, weird.
Through in that case, more like "easy to recognize".

Through not as peculiar as Zounose "everyone has sharp teeth", Yohane "naked girls are powered by steam and everyone is in couple", Giselebon "everything looks like a kindergarten doodle made by an old wise bald man living on top of a mountain", PFALZ "Yorihime is gorgeous as hell", Aoshima "the shoulders must be visible and everyone is a lesbian but Nue is worse" or Futa "everyone is a chibi and I'll never resume that huge cliffhanger I made with Rinnosuke and Youki Konpaku" but compared to the average style, still peculiar enough.

Of course, there's also the fact that since Alphe's (Kaoru, actually) and Hemoglobin's styles are so different, one obviously cannot mix them in the same game. That's also what I meant by "peculiar".

Yep.

At any rate, about the game : the basic idea was that the character was dreaming, kinda like in Vanilla Sky or Jacob's Ladder.
Then I decided that idea was shit and not very touhou-like, so I changed it for "outsider got his face ripped by Kokoro to use as a mask, and he slowly becomes insane and then shit happens".

Oh. Well, here's the full code anyway. It'll help you have a grasp of what's going on: http://pastebin.com/Ei4zYjXK

To be quick, the game has an introduction, followed by a "clear page" script. After some exposition, the player finally get his first choice between two jobs, with only one of them being successful.
And it ends once the job is finished, or once the character gives up.

I'm not even going to continue this, to be honest. If the game can't even be read, I don't see the point of finishing it or reworking it.

Certainly not a text adventure. Not only it doesn't work (literally), but it's also too much of a book, without pictures or music (albeit it's possible to include them in the game). RPGs are annoying as hell, as there's a lot of work to balance the game and make the boss battles hard but winnable.
Probably a VN or something, there are sprites in the OP, and for the background, Google can help me.

As for plot, the problem isn't to find one, the problem is to make it interesting for a touhou fan.
For example, in the text adventure I was making last week, the idea was that the main character was a clone of an outsider obsessed with Yorihime, being slowly indoctrinated to become a living weapon in order to replace youkai as the new antagonists on Earth (since except for Gensokyo and other pocket dimension, youkai are basically extinct or replaced by new one like Bloody Mary or Teke-Teke). The jobs the player character accepts would have gradually became more and more disturbing, with the final job being the torture and assassination of the original outsider, while battling with hallucinations and illogical occurances (such as seeing the same cat twice, or déjà vu feelings).
And the story would've ended with the player character unmasking himself in front of a mirror, realizing that he has the face of the man he just murdered in a disgusting fashion (while Good Vibrations plays, because I liked Vanilla Sky). Cue epilogue where Toyohime is talking about her progress in manipulating one's memories, claiming it's possible for a clone to infiltrate any society before falling into a murderous rage, and claiming that youkais are finished anyway.

Touhou is mostly about Gensokyo (and its people), and Gensokyo in that story was nothing but a background, with the usual characters being only cameos. Beside, while I don't mind original characters, playing a game with OCs means accepting the writer's vision, and in that case, it stops being a Touhou fanfiction to become an original work based on Touhou. You could say I'm nitpicking, but that's different, and I don't really like the idea of showing my turgescent own mythos down someone's throat unless he knows what he's getting into.

Not to mention I tend to make a lot of references to some of my earliest works, while being aware that private jokes are something to avoid, especially when said earliest works show global disrespect toward English language, and basic writing.

So yeah, it would be better if someone else writes the story, but it poses a new trouble : accepting such a task means trusting the other party, and so far, I'm but a tripfag, so trusting a tripfag out of the blue is bloody unlikely.
At this rate, I think the only way for one to show he's serious, is to release a game, as a proof that he can do shit. But sadly, as I explained, given my tendencies for overly complicated plots delivered with subpar writing, mixed with private jokes are not going to be considered as good, and therefore won't gain me Anon's trust.
Which also makes another point painfully obvious : one shouldn't ask me any question about anything even remotely associated to plot, as I can and will post long wall of text that will compete with the former Berlin wall.

TL;DR : probably a VN. Plot isn't a problem, through the odds of getting a bad one are insanely high.
Have a good day, mate.

One thing to remember is that while Touhou is a series, Gensokyo itself is a setting. Technically, things that don't immediately revolve around Reimu's incidents aren't Touhou as far as the original definition goes (such as many of the side games), and various light novels, both "official" and normal doujin add in side-stories and characters that flesh out the parts of the setting that you wouldn't get to see if you were just confined to the preexisting characters.

Also remember that many fan-characters began as either bit-players, or generic enemies given an identity (Daiyousei, an official character, started as this), or OCs, and while there are thousands of ways to abuse and misuse an OC, there are many ways to make them interesting spectacles that allow one to play out scenarios that would otherwise be impossible.

Also remember that sometimes, a bit player can stand in for an OC if you REALLY want to avoid using them. A nameless sunflower fairy or human farmer get get a lot of millage without technically being an OC, so long as you don't name them. And of course, also ponder whether or not your OC could be better replaced with an official character, up to and including a PC-98 character, or one of the obscure novel characters.

So, in frank; don't worry if it seems that you're threading on unknown ground if you're not directly contradicting canon in some way. If people like it, it gets incorporated into fanon; if ZUN likes it, then canon (though what days of the week it's canon might be subjective). If nobody likes it, at least you gave a unique perspective to the setting that would otherwise go unseen. Though, if you truly feel that the story is unsalvagable, by all means, do not hesitate to dump it.

I understand your point, but there's something else that worries me : let's say I suddenly want to adapt Vampire : the Masquerade, and put it in a Touhou setting, keeping the political manipulation, while keeping the idea of youkai backstabbing each other behind the curtains while the humans are watching and preparing their pitchforks and torches in case the backstabbing starts affecting them. If I kill one or several canon characters, and therefore alter the setting, can that still be considered as a fanfiction?

If I'm asking what seems to be a stupid question, it's because I though the general idea behind Touhou fanfics was something like in Warhammer 40k : do anything you want, but don't move the plot forward and don't kill the main character; hence why most doujinshi and fanworks are either slice-of-life, prequels exposing a character's backstory -"real" or imagined- (like Kaguya and the bamboo cutter, Mokou and Amakusa or whatever his name is, Eirin and Sakuya's strange relations, or Miko trying to become a hermit to escape death), or hard porn yuri lesbian works with tentacles and faceless people that look like the nurses from Silent Hill 2, and that the work actually altering the world were the exceptions (like Concealed the Conclusion and, to some extent, Zounose's works that depict a different Gensoyko -not different to the point of altering it, but enough to offer alternative interpretation of various canon lines, interpretations that may be reused later).

Which leads me to my question : how much change do you think the average fan can accept because the story is no longer a touhou fanfiction and starts being an original work based on Touhou? Because I'm used to people accepting original characters romancing and even defeating touhous, but it was just a small circle, and I'm not sure the average touhou fan can accept OCs (or even romance) as easily as these people.

Yes. It's fucking fan fiction. Everything from turning them into Gundam pilots to having Gensokyo destroyed is on the table. Doujinshi kill off characters in spades and nobody pretends those somehow "aren't Touhou fanbooks."

I was going to do another little game jam to add some more features. I wanted to make the world be randomly generated when you first play and stay that way every time after. I also wanted to make it so you can grow trees and flowers or remove them. And lastly add more dialogue with the touhous. Unfortunately, I got really sick during it and could only do the world generation before stopping.

I wrote some ideas where I would like to go with the game if I ever got serious with it. I want to make it so you build a village and the touhous would move in and inhabit it. The touhous can wander into your town or live in it if you build houses for them to live in. And you can build landmarks, like for example the Hakurei Shrine to attract Reimu, Suika, and Sukuna to your village. It wouldn't be exactly like Animal Crossing, but I like the idea of building your comfy town and filling it with your favorite touhous.

Unfortunately the biggest obstacle is art, so I haven't put much effort into it. I'm limited with what I have, so I can only do basics. I didn't want to get invested in something that wouldn't go anywhere, which is why it's very bare bones.

MC is a (random villager/outsider/lesser youkai) who goes to work as a live-in butler in the (Hakurei Shrine/Myourenji/SDM/Earth Palace) because he (tries to romance one of the touhous there/wants to repay a touhou for saving him/saw their 'help wanted' ad/is a panties thief). Hilarity ensues.

That would be a setback when it comes to writing a VN. Sadly, as much as I hate postmodern defeatist philosophy when it comes to art, the sheer density of Touhou fan-works makes it difficult to break new and interesting ground.

I have a short story somewhere (~50 pages, I think) where a human ends up in Gensokyo whose grasp on reality is so tenuous that he can warp his surroundings simply through concentrated disbelief. Ended up petering out, though. Mebbe I'll take another run at it.

True. But at the same time, if all I desired was popularity, I would've changed my trip, and I would be focusing my effort on a more popular touhou (like Udonge or Sakuya) rather than constantly claiming that Yorihime is my favourite girl.
I rather enjoy putting characters, background and music together to create an atmosphere rather than creating a plot.

And the rule for writing in convincing Olde Buetchered Aenglish is to essentially pretend that you're only semi-literate. Misspellings are a plus, always add an extra vowel here and there.

>>12618618
Maybe I did not explain well, but my point is that rather than being discouraged by the lack of opening in the touhou scene, I am most often discouraged by the fact that I tend to appreciate creating the atmosphere more than I appreciate writing the story, and thus my work often turns into a search for song able to create unease in the listener (such as static and white noise), rather than trying to come up with a decent plot and/or good characterization.

As for Olde Aenglish, what you taught me means I am to restart all my work from the beginning again, as the Futo I write and start to like mixes verbose and olde english, as seen in the following, which are excerpts of my current work :
>“Art thou aware of that land's name, or is it lost to thy mind, drowned in ignorance, along with politeness and advanced language?”
>“I say, that thou might be one of these short-lived peasants, called outsiders, as thee seems to be both devoid of the most basic skills, but also extremely dependent of thy own magic. Through I must admit that a youkai being dependent of outsider magic is unheard of so far.”
>“I shall make good note on that and learn again of that fact once it will be relevant to my interests, which translates to never. Good day, sir.”

I must admit that I partially wish to ignore your point, even going far enough to metaphorically declare "fuck that" and still have my way, albeit I fear this may jinx my work at its current, vulnerable state.

>> No.12618761

>>12618635
Ah, we're talking about different English. You're using the "chivalrous" style (which you seem to have down pat, actually), which is mostly based on poetry and bard song. It has a nice dramatic lilt to it, even if it can get long-winded at times.
I was referring to Ye Olde butchered Aenglesh, where 90% of the style is from phonetic misspellings made by semi-literate peasants.

And I wasn't being sarcastic so much as sympathetic. Also, the "mockery" was more of a jest about the "huehue 50 pages" than a shiv at the earlier half of the post. I agree with you, actually. That ended up being my problem; I focused too much on how the other characters were acting in an uncomfortable situation rather than actually developing the premise.

>> No.12618797

You know, there is always a different way if Old english isn't working. There are tons of outdated terms and phrases which, though making sense to a modern reader, are very rarely used. Just look at any idiom/ quote website/ thesaurus. That way you can create the impression of someone speaking not quite the modern era without having the reader mentally translate/imagine a 12th century baron head-voice

Yeah, but right now, I have a verbose Futo who sounds like she's trying too hard to sound educated by abusing strange sentence structure and devious choice of words, and the narrator sounds like he's from the Stanley Parable. That makes the main character bland as hell.

You need a little work on your phrasing of old English.
The piece itself is quite well rounded and done with coherent flair but the old English is rather marred by it being phrased in common English.

Theorically, the graphisms make description redundant, but some girls aren't as expressive as I hoped (Tojiko), others only have a limited set of positions (Tojiko), while real VNs have the character moving a lot (Tohsaka in F/ST is constantly moving, crossing her arms, uncrossing them and pointing at the sky, looking left, looking right, scratching her cheek).
Anyway, typos are (mostly) fixed, so I can fix the rest and olde english Futo's lines more.

Also :
>pick incompetech song
>mixes it with noise of wind blowing through trees
>makes sure the wind isn't loud enough to cover the song, thus creating an oppressing atmosphere
>add song to the game
>song is only used for 5 seconds until Yamamoto wakes up
I am so bad at this.

Nice improvements. I find the second enemy easier than the first or at least the first attacks from the second easier that the first attacks from the first enemy.

It feels a bit hard to gauge when you will get hit, I think it's the perspective fault but I'm not sure. Also I mostly die between hitting the attack button and the sword swing, when youmu prepares her attack. I would advice to either make her immediately invulnerable or to make it more clear that she's attackable during that period.

Don't know if that's just me through, so I hope for you to get more feedback.

Okay guys, I need some opinion here.
Still experimenting with Tojiko's verbal sparring battle, and I'm trying to find a good visual for it.
The idea is that the character constantly stares at her, trying to notice small gestures and tics. Think of a mix between Deus Ex Human Revolution, LA Noire, and Apollo Justice, except with more unsettling stare coming from the MC.

Which brings me to this : giant eye in the background, stupid idea or good idea?

Giant eye would only be okay if you are actually Satori. Eyes are so often in backgrounds of rpg horror games it became a silly thing.
It might be more work, but the unsettling nature should be more noticable through the other characters reaction.

Unless the MC stares like Bela Lugosi, then go for it.

>> No.12643893

Ditch the eye. Shadow out the sides and kill some saturation instead, giving a feeling of focus. Preferably with generated inconsistent animation to portray strain.

I can't make animations (don't even know if it's possible), but I can probably do the other stuff. I think I already tried shadowing the sides (>>1263882), but was disappointed with the result.
Gradually killing the saturation would mean making a new background.

But I agree with >>12643817, it should be a bit more subtle than just putting a giant eye all over the place.

Is pic related what you have in mind? Or did I misunderstood everything?

As it is now, there's a gap between attacking and reflection taking effect, because when I added the animation I didn't want reflection to happen before the swing
I could add invulnerability right as the attack starts though; since its intended for mobile I'd like it to be as not-annoying as possible
Planning on reworking the uglier spells though, "soon"

I like modding, but only soft stuff. Textures, Game values. I've made my mods for me personal consumption for Civ 4 and 5, Hearts of Iron III (can't wait for 4) Total War Shogun and Rome 2 and, most recently, Wargame Red Dragon. I also modded my game of Fallout 3 and 4, but not with mods of my own creation. I also do skins for my own vehicles in Warthunder, and I did the same back when World of Tanks was actually easy to mod textures in.

Hey, I'm planning on using Human Revolution's discussion system in my own game, so I must check the original to see how it's done and take notes.
It's for research purpose, I tell ya.

And also because I'm partially sociopath and have no idea how real people think and why they would be offended when presented with real, objective evidence that they're wrong and that I'm right, so I need to research that too in order to write believable characters with their own goals, their own ego, and their own personality.
And because I know that some anon will do their best to piss touhous off, so I need to do that too and see how many different lines I must write to have a conversation that feels serious and yet offers enough outcomes to feel believable.

I just hope I won't abandon everything halfway through like I usually do.
