Description I'm trying to get orbs to move about properly in my visual novel project. This means making sure they're not distracting by...

1.)Speed
2.)Numbers
3.)Size and Style
4.)Type of movement

New to the project? Check it out at my site. www.unbrokenhours.com/ruin

Could you tell me the size of the sprites ? Because I tried mine and they are to big .Β

It depends on the resolution of your game.

If your game's at 800x600 resolution, it means the largest height is 600 pixels. You'd make your sprite just below that height.

If it's 1280x720 resolution, the largest height is 720 pixels. You'd make your sprite under 720 pixels.

Hope that helps.

The orbs are animated? Whoa!

Yeah, they'll be moving around. They won't be as animated as some other effects if I can figure out how to calculate lag. I only just realize it's harder to do animations in a larger resolution. ^_^;

Considering I barely know how to animate with ren'py, you're better off than me Is that particle effect? Or just ATL?

I don't remember what particles are, but I do mostly ATL.

This look professionally done, amazing job!


On a side note, are there any visual novel games that are fully completed and in English that you can suggest to me? There's one only I've played played all the way through, and it had "piss your pants" intensity. If there are suggestions though, just know that they have to run on Windows XP, NDS, PS2, just about any technically outdated system.

OH yeah, forgot about 999 for NDS ca.ign.com/games/999-9-hours-9…

999 was the one I was talking about. If I had a 3DS I would get Zero Escape.

Ah, then you haven't tried Phoenix Wright, right? It's a great series. I played all four, and the spin off.
