Using a Game Designer's critical lens, we'll see what lessons the Bible Visual Novel has for our own projects!

I didn’t know there was a Bible visual novel, that’s great! I’m a Christian and I have started working on a story that’s lightly based on a Bible story. The Bible has great lessons in it and wonderful historical stories.

What a wonderfully done video! The amount of respect shown towards the creator coupled with the insightful opinions makes this just a great video to watch. But seriously, thank you so much for being so respectful while keeping things so lighthearted!! And yes, if I ever get the chance to credit my gamer teachers, I will most definitely name you 😄

Thank you for these videos they have helped a lot! I have a religious based game I've been working on for a couple months now (Will be my first game project release). It'll be far more edge case than The Bible, but interesting to see others in similar vein. With prior Python, 3D, Photoshop, and music experience it's been almost entirely self-made but had some QA help from friends to refine it down to core essentials and playability. So far almost all I've used is public domain which has been nice. The biggest upfront cost has been gearing up in DAZ3D over the last year, but I have 4 titles in various stages of development while I also work a full-time job 😅 I think The Bible Visual Novel dev likely just needed a few good people that cared to give friendly structured critique and it'd have been even better at launch. This year I played about 73 visual novels to get a feel for what's out there right now and excited to get my work this month out into the world. Loved, liked, hated, or despised- I enjoy the thought that something I made could cause any of those feelings in someone- in some way, that's the fuel for projects...well, that and bills of course 😁

Whoa...I actually clicked this by accident, but what a great video!!! Your insight on game marketing and textual analysis really took me by surprise based on the topic...I really had no idea what the video's point would be. 😅 This actually gives me quite a bit of hope -- it IS possible to make money (in part) by just bein' weird and having interesting, sticky ideas 😂 Earned a subscriber ❤ (I was already subscribed, but still)

If it helps, educational games tend to work on the same principles as other games, make a gameplay loop that is fun and rewarding for players. What kind of subjects are you trying to make into games for your kids?

ik this is from a year ago but if ur still wondering as a high schooler who was in elementary 4-5 years ago i rememeber liking prodigy and another site called first in math. I think the idea of in game prizes (in first in maths case as you got more points by completing games iirc you got badges and your title changed from lets say scholar to whiz), FIM also somehow had a banger soundtrack, it shouldnt have in retrospect but the songs lowkey slapped maybe that played a part (seriously google the first in math ost). In prodigys case i remember it being like an MMORPG sort of thing but to use attacks and spells you had to answer math problems, aside from the math you could explore with friends, get skins and different weapons, buy furniture for the in game house. Prodigy was super fun i remember my brother and i fighting over using my moms laptop on the weekends to play lol. I even somehow convinced my mom to get me a membership lol. i hope this helped even a little

Oh! I had another question. If I wanted to program a custom calendar into a game, say the International Fixed Calendar with 13 28-day months, how should I go about doing that?

@narnia1233 Жыл бұрын

That’s what I’ve been wanting to do too. I’ve done some brief searching but couldn’t find anyone so far that’s achieved that. I’m bad but ideally I don’t want to use chatGPT because they’ve put in their own censorship on the output results. I really want an AI that could be used in character creation where essentially we can insert the data the character should know and believe and how they’d respond. Essentially a system where we actually create the AI ourselves. That would be a dream. Imagine essentially building the memory bank of a character by identifying what books (in real life having the program scan entire books like mathematics, history, etc.) or places or events they’ve gone to and even how much they’d know on each topic based on various factors, etc. I’ve watched a little bit about how chatGPT essentially analyzes sequences of letters and words and sentences to find a pattern from the data it’s given. But, how they rank the best responses I think currently is under wraps.

Okay, this is going too far lol. It isn't working IMHO because the design is clunky and doesn't bode well. The reading became difficult but at least it got the spirit right
