So I just played this, /jp/, and I'm actually kind of impressed. All of us managed to gather for just a short bit of time and made something moderately enjoyable. I acknowledge that I'm a bit biased, considering I loved the original short story, but what have you. Is it good? Maybe. Is it great? Fuck no. But hell if I didn't enjoy the entire... what, hour? I spent playing it. Seeing Julie in 2D made my little heart happy.

It's a shame that the fan disc was canceled and that /jp/ doesn't do more stuff like this. Maybe we aren't so autistic and uncooperative after all.

This was made by about three people, mostly on an independent wiki (jpwiki.co.cc) and IRC channel.

The art is terrible, the story isn't /jp/'s, and it does nothing special in terms of coding (it's straight-up Ren'Py, through-and-through).

Please don't list this piece of garbage as a positive example of /jp/'s accomplishments.

OP said it was enjoyable, not that it was good. I don't think anyone here is really proud of the quality of Dandy Girl, just that we finished something.

A remake wouldn't hurt. The ONScripter code in the source file was broken and glitchy as fuck if I remember correctly.

So much nostalgia. How many years has it been, now?

I don't know how anyone could hate this game. The writing is a mishmash of VN and anime cliches and the character art is (as I interpreted) intentionally bad. If nothing else, the Julie fan art it prompted is adorable.

You know when you laugh but you force-close your mouth so it comes out as a string of very loud snorts?

I just did that for A WHOLE MINUTE.

Sorry to burst your bubble, OP, but the writefag quit writing fiction.

There will never be a fan-disc/expansion.

I wouldn't mind working on helping write a remake of this, but I doubt there's anyone on /jp/ who'd want to do updated artwork for it anyway.

A couple of developers on /vg/ (Steiner and that guy doing Detective Butler) are doing projects with ONScripter. You could drop them a line for coding purposes if you're really interested in getting some sort of collaborative effort going.

All this talk of remaking the game without the original writer, I'm not sure how I feel about taking the original writefag's material and changing it without their permission...

Robert F. Young owns the original concept. If you want to ask anyone for permission, it should be him. ;_;

It's pointless to respond to a post this old, but it contains many factual inaccuracies so I feel compelled to clarify out of principle.

>This was made by about three people
Four people: Artist, Writer, Editor/Scripter, Musician

>mostly on an independent wiki (jpwiki.co.cc) and IRC channel.
No, we used the forums on http://jpproject.2ksite.com/ I don't believe jpwiki.co.cc existed at that time. Also, we never communicated over IRC.

>[...] it does nothing special in terms of coding (it's straight-up Ren'Py, through-and-through).
?????
We used ONScripter. This is obvious if you look at the files, so it seems to me that anon never read it.
