intro post! hiii!! you can call me yappingbimbo or any variant of that you wish

for the most part, i'm a fanfic writer but i've also worked on VNs like the Yuri Game Jam 2024 and this year's Yaoi Game Jam

I do have more ambitious projects planned, but they're big projects that'll take some time

Forgot to post it when I got it... Here's a commission I got of my primary yumeship OC, Harelock! This is the Slenderverse ver. of him. Drawn by godtsh.carrd.co
Drawn image of a dark-haired boy with brown skin, messy shoulder-length black hair, green eyes, and a fang. He wears a striped purple shirt, overalls, and a purple spooky bunny face pin.

This is "debanking", and its a problem that has plagued sex workers for decades. It isnt right when its targetting sex workers and its not right when its targetting game devs and creators either.

Give paypros and your givt reps your grievances and demand that debanking of adult content stop

Per Reddit: Steam adult developer in the UK is sitting on a USD equivalent of six figures, can’t find a bank to take his money because the developer creates adult games

www.reddit.com/r/UKPersonal...
r/UKPersonalFinance 3 hr. ago Previous-Camera1641 I develop adult video games on Steam. I can't find a bank that will actually let me withdraw my money from Steam. Can I get some advice? Game has sold quite well on Steam. I've got almost £90,000 ready to withdraw after Steam's cut + VAT taken off. However, it's been 2 months now and I can't find ANY bank in the UK who will let me withdraw my money from Steam. I've been banned/refused/unable to get a business account with: Wise Revolut Monzo Monese Chase Starling Nationwide Halifax Barclays Lloyds RBS It always comes down to, "Where did you get this money from?" "It's coming from games I sell on Steam." "Can we see the store page?" "Sure." "I'm sorry, we can't do business with you at this time." It keeps coming down to a commercial decision purely because I make adult content. What the hell am I supposed to do? I've pretty much exhausted the whole banking system. I just want to be able to be paid for products I've sold.

I actually find it hard to write a VN script without thinking of the visuals. I'm constantly writing my scenes around how it'll look in game. do I want a CG for this? do I want the sprites close to the screen? do I want NVL for this segment? can't turn it off

Just something to note. Giving credit to creators, map devs, mod devs, etc; will not hurt your video.

It will only improve it.

making vn is easy you just write a book and then you read back each line from that book and think what facial expression are they making and then you draw each expression and then line by line you add a tag for the face they are making. the best part is you only have to do this a few thousand times

If you havent joined in the effort yet, if you havent called any reps, or sent letters to paypros etc etc

You can still hop on and help. Now is the time to try! Because we will only get out of this by trying!

hop on visual novels NOW !!

I've gathered 200+ romance-themed visual novels from 100+ developers across the globe and categorized them by romance type, genre, mechanics, amount of love interests, and more. NO EXCUSES TO NOT PLAY ROMANCE VNS ANYMORE!!!

a tweet by toby fox that says "I didn't try to learn Japanese for a long time because I thought it would be too hard. But now I love learning it and I use it every day. If there's anything you want to learn, don't be stopped by thinking it'll be too hard! Try it! Game-making, music, art, language, anything!"

leaving Steam reviews is an incredibly helpful way to support queer indie devs! reviews show others how good a game is and help games in the Steam algorithm ✨

“Just make it exist!” Isn’t that simple, and neither is “making it good.”

I know the left hand graphic has been making the rounds and is meant as motivation, but as a frequent victim of Scope Creep, please learn from my mistakes 😂🥲
