Methinks you're oversimplifying it a bit much. But we won't have to worry about this until you get to that part anyway.

I read what it was somewhere, I forget where. I won't spoil it for the rest of you though :P

LM now exists outside of his original timestream completely, which is why BM is deteriorating in the first place: Paradox is destroying him. He no longer HAS a past.

He's somewhat shielded from this due to the odd mechanics of time planes, his status as a time traveler, and his own will to survive.

If BM somehow moves to the main universe, he, too, will no longer exist in his original timestream... and be a distinct individual completely separate from his younger self, now bound to the timeline of the main universe.

This will STOP the deterioration, though it will not reverse it.

Does this make some kind of sense? I can change it if need be.

Sort of, actually: BM even makes this point: Suzumiya is Anti-Causality itself. (Of course, that's assuming that what happened was the doing of a Suzumiya in the first place.)

Although, really, I don't have to pay attention to causality because of the nature of visual novels. I'll leave it up to you guys to figure out what that means. It's always nice to justify things, though.

Hmm? How so?

Yep, makes sense!

I'm satisfied.

And then we find out that Aebliss's story is actually canonical for the VN and Makuro is messing with people for the LOLs. Or something.

I refuse to use OCs beyond plot devices like Director Koizumi, even if they are awesome.

We could use as a cameo, somehow. She is awesome, after all.

How about in an extra that after completing some route or other requirement the player gets to unlock a scene with her in it?

And this is weird, a full day without activity? What's wrong with this world?

Selofain · 2009-11-21, 23:08

Plenty. But not in my world. So now that my workload is considerably lightened until finals week, howzabouts throwing summa dem artwork at me to work at? Is there artwork for me to work on?

In completely unrelated news, I see that we've won the Big Game.

P.S. Microsoft Word doesn't underline Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. But Firefox does. Firefox fail.

Kogetsu Shirogane · 2009-11-21, 23:40

Makuro looks exactly like Kyonko. Giving Kyonko an outfit like hers(and actually coming up with a decent reason for it) would be enough to count as a reference, and not completely confuse people unfamiliar with the Setsubun story.

Unfortunately, not a whole lot at the moment. I'm alive, but haven't been able to really sit down and draw lately. We also haven't really discussed in-depth file size, types, colors and everything else that's supposed to belong in a design bible. All these things should probably be figured out sooner rather than later so that everyone's on the same page. Everyone who works on outlining characters needs to know at what thickness the lines must be, and those doing colors need to be working off the same palette so that all uniforms are... well... uniform. When I get some time, I'll try discussing these things with Danchou, Kaisos, and Heatth.

Tyabann · 2009-11-23, 14:16

I won't be around a lot this week, since I have several essays due, but I think I can have something written up for the VN tonight. Just so you all know.

There will be a lot more updates in December when I'm out of school and have more time...

Tyabann · 2009-11-24, 18:11

SOMETHING TONIGHT.

I promise.

ALSO IT WOULD BE GREAT IF I HAD SOME ART TO MOTIVATE ME

ALSO MUSIC

Just sayin'.

Jintor · 2009-11-24, 18:45

I recommend you listen to a lot of Queen.

I meant, you know, PEOPLE MAKING MUSIC FOR THE VN, because REGARDLESS OF WHAT DANCHOU THINKS, we're going to need good presentation if we want to attract more people to this.

I think we should just do Day Zero, start to finish, as a pre-demo release to draw in interest. We need more people working on this thing if we EVER want to release ANYTHING.

Also I think I should listen to TMBG instead.

Jintor · 2009-11-24, 19:14

Queen AND TMBG.

Tyabann · 2009-11-24, 19:29

At the SAME TIME.

bhl88 · 2009-11-24, 19:42

Yes there should be a demo of the game XD downloadable to get more people to be interested in the project

dragon4dudes · 2009-11-24, 21:10

And this is going where?

Stupid open-ended questions.
