New year’s turnout

It’s now 2016. So how is the turnout of my visual novel, Beyond Happily Ever After?

Clipboard01

The theme and mood criteria were the highest-ranked, as usual. This means I’m gradually improving my craft as a visual novel creator, always sticking true to the theme and setting up the mood nicely.

In terms of the improved mood rating, I’ve done that by picking the most appropriate royalty-free background music I could find. Plus, the color scheme of the UI has something to do with the theme: green is synonymous to growth, my chosen theme.

And to those who commented that my story needs some more tweaking, yes, I do have plans to tweak the story for an eventual compilation of the visual novels I’ve made for LD and Global Game Jam so far. I just need to approach fellow visual novel developers for that plan.

Anyway, that’s all for this post. Look forward to Global Game Jam 2016!
