Preferably not ones from the 80s-90s, like the regular mid 2000s-present anime art style but made with pixel art. I know CHARON has other recent games in this style but I couldn't find an English patch for most of them unfortunately.

i have posted twice recently about my problem with a Play DRM VN i have tried all options from local emulator changing my entire system Japanese and even getting rid nahimic and disabling my fire wall. and i have discovered if i have multiple process going the background the VN closes so should delete the VN and play drm files and redownload them or try something else ive trying to troubleshoot this for a week now

I tried reading it a couple of years ago. I was very impressed with the robot gameplay but the story itself was kinda boring. Trith be told I didn't get very far does it get better later on? What about the sequel?

Recently, i started jabberwocky, the most explanatory chapter of all. A LOT of my questions were answered in a few minutes after like 35 hours of theories. But i had a thought while making dinner: If the Wakatsuki Sisters are Hasaki and her doll, and Minakami yuki is Mamyia, in the alternativa endings for chapter 1 they......?????

In another post of mine i said as a joke that in my head the end of summer was cannon, and a guy said that is as cannon as other endings (i dont understand it yet pls dont explain).

Holy shit so that makes siblings making *** equally canon wtf is this game on 😧 jokes aside i dont really care, but that was for sure a thought, was it a correct one??

I remember for the last few months the number was around 220k and now its 167k

Pastries are the key to the soul - that is and was the philosophy behind High Times, our donut-making VN that puts you behind the counter of very unique donut shop called The Hot Box!

And after 5 years in development and and enormous quantities sugar and caffeinated beverages to keep us functioning through all of it... High Times has finally launched!

High Times is about something we call Donut Therapy: a thing that doesn't exist in our world but absolutely should! By carefully selecting the right ingredients, the donuts you make become cures for whatever ails your patrons (some of them former lovers)

What you serve and whether they like it will affect dialogue choices, unlocking some routes and locking others, ensuring no playthrough is the same. And you'll find that even the smallest gesture can completely change someone's story!

A BIG SHOUTOUT TO EVERYONE WHO SUPPORTED US!

For what began as such a niche concept, it’s hard to believe that as of today’s launch - we had over 50,000 wishlists!

Hello guys!

It's summer and, for passing time between a game and a series, I thought it would be good some VNs, too. I'm a big fan of romances, so I thought to search help from you all for some good dating sims, principally, to let my heart throb a bit.

What I'm avoiding, tbh, are sad stories and nakige, so I'd ask not to suggest things like clannad and something similar to Katawa shoujo ;).

To say the truth, KS is the only dating Sim I played (and I found it peak) while I watched the anime adaptation of Amagami. So feel free to tell me everything it comes to mind. Thanks!

(This is a joke but I would actually be down for it if they actually gave Keisuke a voice. Honestly disappointed that later ClockUp games have fully voiced protags but not this one.)

I can't stop. I love dating Waifus. How do I get over addiction? I've been a NEET for more than a year now since I started reading VNs... I've started watching anime again as a way to fix this and it kind of helps because I feel normal and wanna get out again. How do I stop? VN Waifus are too alluring...

guys, ive spent days looking for which VN this cg comes from, i cannot find any leads please help me

Does anyone have a physical copy or even an extra in its original packaging theyd be ok with parting with for a fair price? If so reach out

Not necessarily in terms of strength but in personality and the way they come to see and react to the world and others compared to the beginning of the story.

Information about this title:

1. They are university students.

2. Early H-scene, and more H-scenes this time.

3. Each heroines has 2 branches.

4. There are 2 routes, pure love and sex-focus. Both will have happy ending.

5. Bonus mode will unlock after the ending.

6. "Click-H System" from "LOVEPICAL-POPPY"

sins of Kaleido is set in the same universe as Even If Tempest and is also written/directed by the same person (Ushio Ayane).

It's set 1000 years in the future and according the the official account it can be played without knowing Even If Tempest (references will be lost though).

The first thoughts of those who already finished it seem to be very positive!

Description

"This is my will. No one else's."

She was once the beloved child of a wealthy family. But those bright days were swallowed by the darkness of a tragic scheme.

Having lost everything, the girl returns to her homeland with ambition burning in her heart. There, she meets a group of heretical men who harbor the power of witches.

Bonds forged by wounded souls warmth flickering in frozen hearts. The miracle of love, now known by the lonesome.

But in the end...

Death is a turning point. Hope is the prelude to despair.

This is the story of saving those vanishing fates.

I am here to find something that could scratch a very specific itch I have. To explain the setting I’m looking for, it’s better if I provide some examples first: Aiyoku no Eustia, Sekien no Inganock, and (Spoiler warning for a Frontwing VN) ISLAND's Winter arc are all perfect examples of what I’m looking for.

All three stories take place in a world where people are divided into floors or tiers based on their social status. The lower you descend, the harsher the environment becomes and the poorer the people get. Similarly, the higher you ascend, the brighter and more prosperous it becomes, and the wealthier people get. In these kinds of worlds, acts such as murder, theft, and prostitution are widespread on the lower tiers (slums), and people often resort to them to survive. On the other hand, higher floors often have people living a luxurious life with no care for the people on the lower tiers. Religion and politics are also massive themes.

While there are VNs such as Akatsuki no Goei or Rance that have a somewhat similar setting, the most important aspect is missing: the physical proximity between everyone that other models, aside from vertically stratified cities, just can’t replicate. What I mean is that in the three works I mentioned in the first paragraph, the story takes place in the same area; the only difference is the altitude. It is a literal manifestation of a class hierarchy.

I don’t know who came up with the original idea, but I want more. I made a similar post a couple of years ago, and I’m hoping more have popped up since then or maybe there were ones that weren’t mentioned before. Ideally, I would prefer a VN, but if you know a story like that, I welcome it even if it’s a JRPG, LN, manga, or anything else, really. I can also read Japanese, so I am fine with untranslated.

Thanks in advance!

Out of curiosity, I recently tried using AI to generate some character and background images in a visual novel (VN) style, and the results turned out far better than I had expected.

This got me wondering: if a visual novel explicitly stated that it used AI-assisted visuals, would people still be willing to play it? I can understand why some might take issue with it—it’s not just about the visuals themselves, but also concerns regarding a lack of disclosure, the displacement of human artists, training data and copyright issues, or the art feeling inconsistent or lacking "soul."

Includes “Hello, World.” Soundtrack and Artbook.

I’m really into all sorts of literature. I’ve heard good things about these Japanese Visual Novels. A little bit out of my comfort zone, I can’t lie. I haven’t watched much anime in my life. Bur I’ve heard people online praise these visual novels to, frankly, absurd degrees. I just want to see what the hype’s all about. I do remember watching this show, Steins Gate, way back in 2012 or something. I think it’s based off of a visual novel. I liked it as a teenager, but going back to it, I don’t think I’d enjoy it. I’m looking for something a little more….literary? Sorry if I’m coming off as pretentious. Recommend me your favorite visual novels!

I have started reading it a few days ago and I have some thoughts. I choose to go with the remake but it still it feels so nostalgic as though I am reading something from two decades ago and I am so glad they decided to go with this formulae. Off course the humour has been crafted the way to match the modern audience to some extent but the real charm is, the reminisce that you feel with everything else happening. There's simply no word to describe that feeling. It also does a good job of throwing you off with how good the visuals look. I have fond memories of playing games rooting from One and now finally coming back to the grandmother of all of those amazing titles, I gotta say that I'm not even one bit let down, it's such a beautiful game with amazing characters.

What do you guys recommend i read first? They look pretty similar so i cant decide for one or the other

not including shipping

All I know about it is that it exists, as there's almost no other information about it on VNDB.

Unfortunately, Kuroi Hiroki has been responsible for far too many tentacle-themed works. :(
