Four games I've worked on 🎐 *Own projects* Reanimation Scheme — my first commercial otome vn Emberfate — my experimental MMORPG/chatsim vn *Client Projects* Royal Alchemist — one of my 1st commissions. I wrote Serin's route~ Killer Chat — I wrote the chatsim system for the project in 2 weeks!

I've finally recovered enough from being sick to work on this. #VNConf 2025 call for speakers is open!!! VNconf2025 is planned for Jan 25, 2025. Please share a lot w/ your dev friends because twitter's dead and my VN network here isn't great. bit.ly/vnconf2025cfs

I can't believe how quickly I've hit 800+ followers! So to thank you all for being here and supporting me, I thought I'd run a little giveaway! To enter: - Like and repost this post - Follow if you aren't already! I'll do a random pull for a winner on the 30th Nov!

Hopping on the trend for this in case anyone wants to get to know the dev behind my games better 👉👈 1 like = 1 question answered! ✨

I forgot to make a second account to hog my personal Windchimes handle and now it's taken 🥹@windchimes.itch.io it is...

WELL. I did hit 250 so to celebrate the fact that I have more than 1 follower, I shall do a giveaway of art! You probably know the drill. - Repost this post. - Follow if you aren't already. In a week I shall randomise a winner!

i feel like i say this a lot but genuinely if you like an indie game on steam which doesn't have a lot of attention and you want to support it, the best thing you can do is leave a review it really does help a lot 🙏

not only does leaving comments/reviews on steam and itch io help share the game you like to more people it also makes the dev really fucking excited to see someone had opinions about hte thing they did!!

To start off my fresh account, I've compiled a few Ren'Py tips into a bite-sized format! I've been programming in Ren'Py since 2018 and spent a ton of time working with it for all sorts of projects. Here are some less-common bits of knowledge ✨ #vndev #visualnovel #gamedev #renpy

Do you like VISUAL NOVELS where they DO THE KISSING? You'll be happy to know that we've got a pack just for you. This is an actively managed and curated list of creators making romance visual novels! bsky.app/starter-pack... 🔁 if you love kissing games!

Hey, I thought it'd be nice to build up the Ren'Py community on here so here's a starter pack! Sometimes it's unclear which engines people use... If you'd like to be added, please reply below. go.bsky.app/AtyBmj4

repost with your creator goals for 2025 🔶release Reanimation Scheme on Steam/Itch.io for the love of god 🔶finish Emberfate's DLC 🔶announce my baby xianxia project and finally start marketing 🔶make a couple of *actually short* jam projects for fun

I've been seeing some fellow VN devs share their experiences and tips here on Bsky lately, so I thought I'd join in and share some of mine too 🥺 Can't guarantee they'd be useful, but here we go. ⚠️ These come from the POV of a director, writer & Ren'Py programmer who knows nothing about art!

EVIL GAMEDEV ADVICE: expand the scope. more items. your first game should be a 40 hour rpg. dont forget to expand the scope. don't ask for help. create a discord server. there should be 63 unique classes in your rpg. no fishing game. don't forget to expand the scope.

✨show off your visual novel in 4 screenshots!✨ Reanimation Scheme is a magic fantasy #otome visual novel, where you play as a burned out necromancer investigating the mystery of spirits becoming unsummonable overnight — and fall in love along the way! 💖 store.steampowered.com/app/1520740/...
