can i um. ask for more info about the wap vn
Ok so! Wap visual novel came about in summer of 2019 when my friend mars jokingly tweeted about wanting a war and peace dating sim. She’s since deleted her account but there was something like “you attempt to romance napoleon and pierre immediately hates you” which I thought was hilarious. Who’s attempting to romance napoleon.
I figured, I can draw. I can write. I can code a little and I’m taking python this semester. I can totally make this a Christmas gift for her. (This did not happen, because that semester I took 21 credits while doing independent research and working 20 hours a week. And then I got a big girl job and then the pandemic and then grad school whaaat)
It was going to have 11 (I think?) characters that could be romanced (I seem to have misplaced my planning notebook so I can’t completely confirm >:|) with different endings depending on player choices, plus two additional characters that could be unlocked by making specific choices and solving some puzzles.
So basically what exists is some very old character sketches with the majority of the designs being pulled from the various casts of great comet, (most of which are in my tag) a test piece of code to make sure all the art is sized correctly, and a written waltz scene and a completely historically-inaccurate-for-19th-century-Russian-aristocracy romance scene.
There was literally no plot or plans or anything, this whole thing started because back in the day mars and I were insane for manik choksi’s dolokhov and I wanted to smooch him.
Hopefully soon I’ll get some free time and will be able to completely re-evaluate my character designs and actually get the ball rolling on it!
