A gimmick which I think would be interesting in a visual novel: small variation in the visual designs of the sprites and backgrounds based on who's narrating a given scene. Not large variations, mostly—buildings are going to have generally the same architecture, people are going to have generally the same outfits, et cetera—but lots of details shifting around on the margins, showing the texture of the characters' thought-processes through the visual design of the world as they see it, rather than only through the text of their narration.

So, for example, one could have one viewpoint character be unusually faceblind, and portray this by having all the sprites have Same-Face Syndrome when viewed from their perspective, even as they hold onto more variation face-wise in everyone else's perspectives. One could have one viewpoint character who's unusually conscious of the fine details of their physical environment, and portray this by drawing the environment-art with much more fiddly detail when in their perspective, showing wood-grain and electrical wiring and other such things which are abstracted away in others' perspectives of the same areas. Et cetera.

#Archive #Visual Novels #Premises #there's also some room once the pattern has been established on the small scale to go more intense about it #one character just sort of never seeing the building that's the big landmark for everyone else or something #but making that too prominent will end up leaving you with something less like this-idea-in-its-basic-form and more like saya no uta #and for all that i in fact liked says no uta itself it's definitely not particularly about the-thing-this-idea-in-its-basic-form-is-about #so there's a bit of a balancing act there #(the thing this idea is about being largely 'people vary widely in which bits of the world they tend to notice / pay attention to') #(in a mundane way as opposed to just a magical-perception-filtering way)

the little miss baskerville at around 14 years old- a young lady with a mischievous streak 😺. her father makes her wear white as a way to know when she's sneaked out against his orders, because her clothes will be visibly dirty. sometimes she'll disguise herself and klint (and occasionally barok) as east end kids and they'll blend in the crowd for a day. her color scheme is meant to be reminiscent of a candle, both in reference to the headstrong, fiery personality i write her with and to her short-lived existence.

You know, when I was playing through the first Hades game I was still mid religion-crisis and queerness-realization, and I'm just thinking about how nice it is going to be to Not worry about that while playing Hades II

I don't have to worry about whether it's more religiously correct to romance a guy as a guy character, or a gal as a gal player!

I can just enjoy playing the game and get flustered about pretty women and draw yuri of the characters without a care in the world! it'll be great :D

#rhyme rambles #hades game #hades supergiant #internalized homophobia #<for filtering hopefully #hades 2 #it's nice to be reminded of my character growth in little ways like this #ill also quite probably get flustered by a pretty man #that's a bit less common for me but Thanatos is one of the reasons I know I'm attracted to men at all so #edit: forgot to mention: im aethiest/agnostic now- raised catholic

I need to go to work soon but the beef people have with Ava for being a traumatized child and reacting like one is crazy. "She blamed Lilith for Maya's death" no she didn't, she lashed out at Lilith but never blamed her. She's hurt and she's upset, and she's a child who's been hurt by the world and doesn't know how to manage her emotions. Y'all did not consume the game correctly if you think she's a horrible person. Leave her alone you fucking freaks.

#borderlands #borderlands 3 #ava borderlands #this post it brought to you by seeing another post that reminded me of the undeserved hate she gets #im so tired #also because its so early i have less of a filter right now lmao #hence the you fucking freaks #moths saying things again

woe is me to have come from asian fandoms that always specify ship dynamics no matter how stupid it makes the ship names sound and to integrate into western fandom where i play russian roulette every time i open a ship tag

#ran rambles #its not even about the less child friendly work either im just pissed as hell to see a dynamic i dislike #yeah ill still see one i dislike even w proper ship tags because of oocness or whatever but at least ive got the freedom to cater to myself #anyway theres my pet peeve #also radioapple is such a popular ship for some reason every other thing my moots rb is filtered out #im sick of twink4twink i need adamsapple #radiostatic doesnt count as twink4twink because vox is my wife so he gets a pass

in the continuing of adventures of "I am an adult with some disposable income, so why do I not allow myself small luxuries that will make my home a much nicer place to live in"

I bought myself a bunch of beeswax candles!

Some of y'all probably know that I have a Thing about honey, but you may not know that beeswax is one of my favorite smells in the world. It's kind of pricey, though, and you need quite a bit of it for a strong smell. So the idea of buying enough of them to actually make my house smell like beeswax always sounded way too wasteful for me.

But I was looking at some beeswax recently and was like "man, I wish I could make my house smell like that" and I was like "okay but why can't you?"

anyway, I spent kind of an ungodly amount on candles, but they look so nice. ;;

#just me #I'm hoping they have a nice throw; sometimes people filter them so they have less smell #but I love the smell!!! #I guess I'll try them from a few different companies to find the ones that smell the strongest #I'll just have to keep a close eye on geist lmao #also they came with those biodegradable packing peanuts so I had fun dunking those in water to watch em melt lmao #I am essentially still a 7yo in science class

MY SHRIMP HAD BABIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO TINY

#Emu tries to post #shrimp #Aquarium shrimp #ojhhhhhhh #I spotted them yesterday #and saw one of the ones that was pregnant had only one egg left in her belly #And another one also had less #checked this morning and there's still babies #didn't look at the females again though so not sure if the other eggs are out now #this is. This is what baby shrimp look like right? Just making sure? #I think they weren't more than a few hours old when I took the photo #some of them were drifting around and then jerking towards the walls #and some of them were already sitting on the walls #I crushed an algae wafer for the babies.. not sure if I should do anything else #there's a mesh bag put on the outside of my filter because I was worried about the adults getting stuck inside #And it seems that was a good decision since the babies came so quick #But I want to get a sponge filter when we can

Not the spiderverse art book restarting the dying down Hobie age discourse. With the Japanese version implying he’s a ‘young boy’(I think that’s what it was either way either way) and the book saying ‘he’s much older than miles..’(smth like that either way either way) and it’s like seriously? Again? AGAIN?

The directors said it’s up to interpretation. And the only reason(w/ the exclusion of the people thinking he’s like 30 cause that’s weird and gross, re-examine some racial biases)that people are so adamant he is or isn’t a minor is because of shipping! Whether it’s with one of the spider teens or with OCs or justifying self shipping it’s weird! It’s weird that that’s the reason people are going nuts over this shit and dying on their respective hills. And let people have their HCs holyshit.

And to reiterate: it’s not proshipping/pedoshit if someone HCs Hobie as a teen and ships them with one of the spider teens. It’s not necessarily fetishization and is not pedoshit if people HC him as a young adult and do self ships or whatever else goes on there.

It’s fandom let people fuck around. Something doesn’t have to be justified as morally wrong for you not to like it. Stop trying to force your own Head Canons, key word HEAD as in the canon in your head, onto other people.

Sorry for the rant I just cannot believe it’s still going.

#I’ll say it again #head canons #as in the canon IN YOUR HEAD #ik part of the problem is people are new to fandom spaces/culture and don’t entirely understand HCs #sorry I’m getting so heated but this is like the stupidest shit to see people get stuck on as someone who has been here for awhile #like actually dealing with ACTUALLY problematic ships and this is what y’all think is problematic now??? ITS IN YOUR HEAD BESTIE #like the ghostpunk. punkflower. and chaipunk ships aren’t for me but I do love and appreciate the art! #never rlly been into self inserts either. idk just not my thing tbh #didn’t even rlly know what proshipping was till the Hobie brown stuff #y’all are KILLING ME #it’s funny but it’s also annoying to see it all over my feed #so now we all have to suffer #there isn’t even really a tag for me to filter it out #I’m gonna put some triggers just cause I was less eloquent than I could’ve been lol #tw pedophila mention #age discourse ig

In other personal news I've been a little sick (the midterms curse) and can't seem to sleep for more than two consecutive hours and it's fun having my dreams fluctuate wildly between me drawing circuit diagrams and visions of Rose Lalonde completing mundane tasks

#talk tag #objectively this is less hell than what i dealt with last year when i got sick #where my insomnia comprised mainly of me filtering through all the barbie movie casting pictures #but i also coded a whole program in my brain so when i was good enough to look at a computer again i just #did my whole project in one sitting #i know that sounds fake but it did happen and i swear my head isnt usually capable of that #the brain is a fascinating construct that wants to torture me
