So, you've heard of Danganronpa right? The games, animes, and Manga? Well, have you ever thought "Golly! I sure wish I could put my OC in something like this!" ....Well I have! Hence why I'm making, drum roll please? Scratchanronpa! (Not final name yet, but it works!) Now, for those unfamiliar with Danganronpa it is a visual novel type game, I will warn you, if you have difficulty with mature topics such as death, murder, and other stuff I can't mention while remaining appropriate, I do not recommend it since I find myself getting a bit uncomfortable at some of the dialog. But anyways, the basic plot of Danganronpa is 15 students are trapped in a school called Hopes Peak Academy, all of them tricked into going there. Each student has an Ultimate title, for example Celestia Ludenberg, The Ultimate Gambler. Being an Ultimate at something means you are the best of the best, and it gets you an invitation to go to Hope's Peak Academy, however the school is much different than every student assumes with it being a trap to lure 15 people into a killing game where the only escape is to get away with murdering one of your fellow classmates. I personally love the concept of this, I would hate it in real life but as a fictional idea I think it's quite interesting! "Should I be worried that this will not Scratch appropriate or that my OC will be put into questionable situations and dialog?" Absolutely not! I promise you, I will NEVER make anything with any of the OCs put in here in uncomfortable or inappropriate situations or make them say questionable stuff, if I hate these types of things than I refuse to introduce others to these topics! 'How will each chapter come out?" Each chapter will be it's own project, starting with a prolog obviously. The prolog will just be an introduction to the topic and will be mostly a visual novel + the occasional point/click. "How will the debates work? Will there be tutorials in the projects?" I plan to try and make the debates go as close as I can to the actual game, as for tutorials, I will make them separate projects so you can practice all you want before trying them! "Will there be a case each chapter just like in Danganronpa?" Yes! In every chapter except the prolog (since it's just an introduction to the idea and topic) Scratchanronpa will be heavily based on Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc since that's the one most familiar with (I'm on chapter 4!) How you can participate! Just remix this project and fill in the info below and in the project! However if you do not want to add in your OC that is okay! I will most likely need some more VA's (Voice actors) for side characters or if someone doesn't want to voice their OC! Now, I can understand drawing several sprites for your OC can be exhausting or genuinely un-enjoyable to some. So, if you do not want to draw several sprites for your OC than I am more than happy to draw these sprites for you! If your OC has any specific traits when expressing their emotions, like changes color or something, please put that in there and I will gladly draw all the sprites needed and show them to you! Please know that any sprites of your OC I draw you are free to use even in unrelated projects as it is YOUR OC, however if you wish to use the sprites of someone else's OC, PLEASE ASK THEM. Now, what if you want to participate but don't want your OC in the game and don't want to voice act? I could always use a bit of help with composing background music and figuring out the plot, I also would appreciate some help with coding since my coding sucks! Oh! Or you could help draw scenes, you may be wondering "Mimi, why would someone waste time drawing stuff when you already said you could take care of it?" Well, I could still use a hand drawing the scenes that take place, and when I mean scenes I mean like backgrounds, CGs (Computer graphics, like when it's a fully illustrated frame instead of the usual sprites). Another way you could help without putting in your OC or being a VA is helping advertise! I would really appreciate it if this project could be spread because I would love for me to be able to get to work on this ASAP! "How many OCs can I add?" A limit of 1 student character however, you may add any characters important to their lore in Scratchanronpa. "How many characters may I be a VA for? And will I get credit for being a VA?" Once I put out auditions it will depend, if there are barley any people voice acting than I'll allow you to be a VA to as many as you want, but if we have more than enough than I will limit it to whatever fits! And yes, if you are a VA you will get credit for each character you voice act! "Am I getting paid for this?" Unfortunately, no. I have zero way to pay any of you even if I wanted to. However this can help you get experience voice acting! Meaning if you want to get into voice acting in the future you can write this on your resume! If you want though, nothing I can do to force you.
Extra note: There will be ZERO SAVE FEATURE for ANY chapter! Also, every chapter will end with the same ends credits with every character + credits to those who voice acted them and another section for those who helped with other parts of the games! Extra Extra note: Due to every chapter being it's own project, there unfortunately will be no count of which OCs you interact with the most if I manage to code in the free time events, but the feature will still be there and you can give gifts to each OC and I am asking the creator of each OC to include a list of Loved Gifts, Liked Gifts, Disliked Gifts, and Hated Gifts and lines when receiving an object of each catagory + neutral reactions! Extra Extra Extra note: One of my OC's will be taking on a role simular to Monokuma, if anyone wants their OC to be the mastermind behind it all PLEASE reach out to me! Is there currently a mastermind: No. Extra Extra Extra Extra: Most of the asked for voice lines will end up being words/phrases for different emotions! Like for example the voice line could be "WWHHHAAAAATTT!?" if your OC is confused at one point! Only the trial stages will be fully voiced! Extra Extra Extra Extra Extra note: If your OC is a culprit you will be asked to story board an execution and I will animate it! Unless you'd like to animate it yourself!
