hello! just to spark conversations…does anyone like visual novels?
I’m loving this chill and beautiful 1996 scifi VN called “YU-NO”…amazing music too!
this classic was for PC-98 (a pioneer in many ways, it paved the way for others like Steins;Gate)
with Sega Saturn and Windows releases soon after (and fantranslated in english for PC),
but there is also a 2019 officially translated remake for Steam/PC, PS4, and Nintendo Switch
sad that the creator and composer both passed away…they had such a groundbreaking vision…
I’ve enjoyed some motion-comics before. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_comic
Is this similar?
im kinda new to vns but I would describe these games more like an anime (except less animated and more static) where you have some input as the protagonist and possibly with multiple endings :)
Ahh, so Choose-Your-Own-Adventure style?
yes! and also influenced by classic adventure video games (text, graphic point-and-click, all that)
