Okay so, here it is... (Patreon)

As I mentioned in my previous posting, I had one more thing I wanted to talk to you folks about, and this is it.
You may have seen my posting to FA around a month or so back where I was asking for assistance from anyone who knew anything about visual novels. I had been hoping to find myself a guru who I could partner up with to work on one.
I didn't find that, exactly. What I did get was a lot of advice on how to do it myself. So... I took some time and, using that advice, sketched out the plot for a X-rated Visual novel set on Boink. And this is it.
Some of you have come to me from time to time, and told me that you're starting to run out of ideas, when it comes to the drawing-per-month tier slots. You're not sure what to have me draw. So... consider this an alternative.
Instead of having me do you an image for a given month, just tell me to work on this, instead. There's lot here that's going to need doing: Taking my rough plotline and writing it, doing background art, doing character CGs, some 3D work, scripting in renpy, etc....
I have had some experience with renpy in the past, though that project never was never completed, partially because of time constraints, and partially because I was trying to make renpy work as something it was never intended to be, which is an animation engine. For this project, my intent to is to use renpy for exactly what it was designed for. That should make it easier, since most of what I'd want to do is already built into the code, and it would just be a matter of working out what bit of code I need to plug in where.
In the meantime, I need to cut this short as I have just been informed a tornado is on the ground in my area, and I may need to go hunker down.
I'll leave you with this blurb that explains the story:
Zero Day is coming to Boink: a celebration of Zero, the first Foozle. On this day, Foozles remove their coloring and their identities, spending the day in their natural albino white, as a symbolic gesture of unification, and a celebration of their progenitor.
The player is invited along on a trip to Boink by Cobalt and Twinkle, who are headed there for the Zero Day festival.
But someone has their own plans underway, with a plot to take advantage of the anonymity that day provides, and it's up to you, the player to intervene. You have one week to figure out what they're up to, before the days count down, to zero.
Think on it, and give me a response. This would be a long-running project, so the more of you that can commit to it, the better.
Thanks again for being here. Now I need to go zoom.
Cheers.
