2016 Indie Visual Novel Developer Demographic Survey

Hey everyone! We ran a demographic survey back in 2014 about our community of developers and we are doing it again!

If you are a developer of Visual Novels and wish to contribute please fill out the survey here!

I would also really appreciate it if you could reblog this post or share it where there are communities of developers, especially languages other than english. I want to try and capture as much of our diversity as possible :)

Thank you and please let me know if you have any questions!

[moacube]

Consider taking a part if you develop VNs. The more data and diversity, the better! :)

[sakevisual]

Let’s see how we’ve grown!

It has come to our attention that some players are posting videos of entire scenes from the game online. We’d like to ask you once more to be considerate of the many people who work behind the scenes to bring new content to you. We hope you can respect our wishes and continue to enjoy our games! Please reference this picture if you want to know what’s OK or not to post online!

So is this only about the YT videos, or are the spoilers and route discussions included?

[cyikemen]

Spoiler and route discussions are fine so long as they don’t contain extensive game content (in particular, full scenes and illustrations from the game). If you have posted anything along those lines, we respectfully ask you to take them down.

The occasional screencap here and there when pointing out a scene you want to talk about is completely OK! In fact, we love seeing people’s reactions to parts of the game and we encourage it.

We hope that answers your question!

PSA for the folks who are making wistful grabbyhands at games like Code:Realize and Aksys’s upcoming release of Norn9 but can’t afford the expense of a Vita: consider, as an alternative, the Playstation TV.

It connects to your TV (via HDMI cable) and a PS3 or PS4 controller. It costs about $40 if you already have a controller (if you don’t you’ll need to buy one separately), and while it won’t play all Vita games - anything relying on the touchscreen, for example, is obviously no go - it works with C:R and is confirmed to be able to play Norn9 as well. 

I had not heard of this thing until last week, but as a cheap alternative to buying a $150~$200 handheld for the sake of playing visual novels it’s pretty amazing.
