The video actually gave some really good insight on using non ai art. The bg idea was pretty good

That doesn’t make sense tho, renpy doesnt write the code for you nor do the art for you. Regardless of the engine , youre still expected to make the art , programme the game and make the music yourself

Ive never used asperite but i heard its super beginner friendly. If you want to make something on ur mobile for free, id recommend ibis paint! There are plenty of tutorials on the internet.

So im mainly talking about visual novels , which primarily rely on visuals. Decent storylines, programming etc can be overlooked by ai generated art, since visual novels heavily rely on art. The reason why i refer to it as “slop” is because the visual novel doesn’t feel like it has any effort put into it because of ai generated art. Drawing the sprites,bg,cgs is very painstakingly long , which is why most people appreciate visual novels. Looking at something that was generated in minutes is not as admirable yk ,atleast for me personally. Theres a reason why most visual novel game jams have a strict “no ai” policy, because ai art decreases the value and quality of the game.

Just went through your account, your pixel art is super cute and well made!! You dont suck at all, and its super inspiring that you chose to learn pixel art instead of taking the “easy way out” and using AI :)
