CCY-senpai wa 17sai 0.04
Twenty-five days ago, I released v0.01 of this “Visual Novel” called CCY-senpai wa 17sai. v0.01 was a text-only playable demo with only three choices to make and a measly 1600 words of text, tutorial included. This is the third release since. There’s a “real” changelog this time around, so check that out if you’re so inclined..
Right now it seems I’m prioritizing my work on this over more serious writing, so please reward my efforts with helpful feedback :)
You can ask Jason Miao for a sign.
So yeah. Please, download this and test it out. Even if you’ve played previous versions. There’s a lot of new content, save games from previous versions should still work, and Skip Mode should remember what text you read in previous versions (it does for me).
Download whichever build floats your platform:
Mac: .zip, 7.2mb
Linux: .bz2, 3.9mb
Windows: .zip, 4.6mb

Again—I don’t have character art, and I likely won’t ever if someone doesn’t contribute it. There will be credits. There probably won’t be payment. I want this to be an open “resource” for the aniblogosphere. So that people can say “I see what you did thar” and make their own VNs. Yeah.
Art? Contribute it.
Music? Contribute it.
I’m focusing on writing, and throwing in cop-out backgrounds where I can.
Thank you for your time!
Now for some random whoredom:
• a post of mine has been published on Oi, Hayaku! I’m linking this not only to get you guys to read my post, but also to get Riex to see this post. He’s a lazy fellow who only checks trackbacks. Lamer.
• lolikitean is now a word. ghostlightning continues to rock my socks.

Hoho, this looks interesting! If you don’t mind them being messy, I can help with the character art.

I have a lot of MIDI files saved from when I transcribe anime music. I can send them to you if you want.
But then again you could just take stuff from ichigo forums or sumfin.

Is it a bad thing that I’m glad to be NOT in this cockamamie excuse for a visual novel?
ALSO, SAT-CHAN IS GAY FOR YOU ROUTE PLOX. PLOX. PLOX.
And lolikitean sounds like a rejected Cthuhlu Mythos term/name for SOMETHING.

I can contribute for background photos and whatnot, but I can’t draw for shit. That okay?
TheBigN 5:46 am on December 3, 2008 Permalink |
I’d prefer it the other way around Drm, thank you very much. :P
lolikitsune 6:42 am on December 3, 2008 Permalink |
@Choux: I don’t “mind” anything. I can’t guarantee that I’ll use anyone’s art (because there’s the chance that someone else will come by and trump it at some point), but you draw fine and I’ve got nothing right now. If you’d like to contribute some artwork, I would be immensely grateful.
@lelangir: the files you sent me rock for my purposes, I believe. What’s “ichigo forums?”
@Baka-Raptor: I take it then that there were not too many DMC jokes? I’ll consider the tambourine.
@IcyStorm: you’re not getting one. I will definitely put you in the game, though. I’m on my way toward having an all-you-can-eat buffet of every anime blogger ever. WHO KNOWS MAYBE I’LL EVEN THROW IN LEGENDS LIKE LK.
@DrmChsr0: you’re going to be in the game, you wormy ingrate. And there’s no Sat-chan route.
@Zeroblade: how would that not be okay? :P I’m taking anything anyone wants to give. If you want to contribute backgrounds, I’d be overjoyed. Everything in there currently is a placeholder by the way.
@TheBigN: off-topic comments wa kinshi!

this… this is awesome! I haven’t played games like this before, but I will try this too.
Blogger theory is my new hobby; lolikitean needs to be refined.
Ditto with Lelangiric.
What others (bloggers) can we do, and to what theories/points of view/biases? Help me lolikit!
lolikitsune 9:09 am on December 3, 2008 Permalink |
@ghostlightning: On the topic of others, Moyism is already a word, though it’s not a theory or bias.
I’m not sure what “lolikitean actually means, by the way. My first assumption would be “having a semblance of trolling, but actually being well-intentioned and insightful,” but that’s clearly not what you meant in your post. I’d guess you were merely using the word as an adjective attributing something to me, which doesn’t really give it a meaning.
Due to work-swamping I can’t devote too much thinking to this topic at the moment, but I can direct you to my post about schools of blogging.

Love is a biochemical reaction that aides the process of reproduction.
This game has a very high male to female ratio…

This community has a very high male to female ratio.
EDIT: Isn’t it refreshing?! =D

Just a 30 second rough sketch.
E-mail me about changes or if you don’t want them at all.
I can’t draw guys. They turn out looking inhumane.
Good luck with everything.
lolikitsune 4:11 pm on December 7, 2008 Permalink |
HOLY FUCK THAT’S AWESOME
CHOUX CAN I HAVE YOUR BABIES
No but seriously. That’s only 30 seconds? That’s pretty pro. … crap, I wanted to enter serious mode but every time I look at that sketch I get too overjoyed.
I’d be interested in seeing what happens when you try drawing guys. Though I kind of know what you mean. I’m like that with drawing girls (though you’re better at girls than I am at guys).
So uh, yeah, those are awesome, I like’em. How much are you willing to contribute to this project, by the way? If I have someone willing to commit to doing character art, I think I’m willing to go through with making this game in its entirety.
Lemme know what you’re up for. I megas love your drawings.
Choux 5:50 pm on December 8, 2008 Permalink |
Thanks.
No.
My guys are too girls because I’m too used to drawing curves, so you’d get guys who look like reverse traps.orz
I’m willing to do character art for the girls (as long as you don’t go crazy and get 20 girls into the game).If you want more than 5 characters, then it’s one pose only (it’s a pain trying to get a second pose to have the same proportions).
I’ll start coloring after you’ve finished deciding on all the characters.
lolikitsune 6:24 pm on December 8, 2008 Permalink |
I don’t mind reverse traps, but I’ve got some other options available for males, so if you’re really adverse to the idea, I’ll leave off :)
Alright then. Girls.
Omo, CJ, Marmot-chan (like in your picture). I don’t need multiple poses, but could I get versions with multiple facial expressions?
Two More Characters: In addition to these three, I’d like Impz and Hinano (the trap and the female teacher from the 4th period electives). Impz should look like… hm, Limone from Simoun, I think. I leave Hinano’s design entirely up to you.
Clothes: I like the uniform you’ve got going for Omo. She and CJ should be wearing just about the same thing as they’re classmates. I leave colors up to you. Marmot can be wearing whatever… doesn’t need to be a uniform.
Facial Expressions: I’m going to assume it’s relatively easy to take the same character and apply different facial expressions. If it’s not, don’t let me boss you into spending too much time on this! It would make the game a lot better if the girls express emotion.
For Omo, CJ, and Marmot-chan, I’d like the following expressions: happy, mildly annoyed, angry, blushing/embarrassed, blushing/happy.
In addition, for Marmot-chan, I’d also like a shy/hesitating look.
For Impz, as he’s minor, I’d like a “happy” expression and a blushing/embarrassed expression.
For Hinano, who’s only going to be in one scene, a flat, neutral look, would do the job.
Choux 9:23 pm on December 9, 2008 Permalink |
Wait, a loli trap impz? Are you sure?
That’s the biggest question I have for you: their AGE. How old do you want them to look?
I mean, if you’re talking about a highschool girl they can go from a girl in Ikki tousen to a girl in gurren lagann to a girl from manabi straight.
Do you have any physical requirements?
And of course they’ll have multiple expressions! I won’t accept anything less.
lolikitsune 9:42 pm on December 9, 2008 Permalink |
Yes, I am quite sure.

Omo and CJ should both look about as old as, say, the girls in Chaos Head, to put it in the context of a current anime. Marmot can look the same age as Primula from Shuffle.
Impz… well, after checking the links I just posted, you should have some idea of how he should look, age-wise.
Physical requirements… I don’t want Ikkitousen boobs, because that’s just gross, not that I’d assume you’d draw them. Omo should be a bit taller than CJ maybe. Marmot should be the shortest.
CJ, as I think you noted, needs glasses (“sexual spectacles” to be exact). Marmot needs extremely long hair and her stuffed marmot, you also got those.
For Hinano’s design, I think I said this before, go bonkers with it, do w/e you want.
Awesome, you rock :)
I just realized I forgot one, I’d like a “surprised/shocked” expression for Omo, CJ, and Marmot.
Finally, if you do all that and want to help out more (gwehehe), you could draw the nurse from the infirmary scene near the beginning of the game. She should look as generic and stereotypical as possible, complete with an inappropriately low-cut shirt.
I really hope I’m not asking too much of you.
You win 1k lk points.
Choux 5:41 pm on December 10, 2008 Permalink |
Okay. Here’s marmot-chan:
http://img360.imageshack.us/img360/2692/marmottl7.jpg
It’s not the completed lineart but that’s pretty much how she’s going to look (I’m definitely going to fix her shoulder though).
I’m starting on Impz after this, then moving on to the other characters.
You’re not asking for too much, it’s actually more convenient for me when you’re more specific, so thanks.
lolikitsune 6:21 pm on December 10, 2008 Permalink |
I’m lovin’ it.
If there’s anything you want me to be more specific about, ask any specific questions you have :)

Choux 3:47 pm on December 22, 2008 Permalink |
Okay, I’m starting the final lines, but before I start on the expressions, I want to check their personalities.
I know that CJ is meant to be bubbly and hyperactive like and Marmot-chan is supposed to be moe blob-ish, but I don’t know much about Omo or Impz. Just summarize how thye’re going to be protrayed in 1 sentence.
Oh, and I found a good list of emotions here, check it out. http://demitasse-lover.deviantart.com/art/Expressions-meme-99818325
lolikitsune 4:26 pm on December 22, 2008 Permalink |
Omo is more serious than CJ, but also has a good sense of humor and thusly handles jokes well. Impz is moe blob-ish like Marmot, but less passive and more squeaky (if that makes sense to you).
Re: emotions list, that’s a pretty good range of faces. Something about the style there says “Toradora! to me btw.

Just tell me if there’s anything that needs fixing.I’ll upload the rest tomorrow if I have the time.
I actually have everything on separate layers, so that if you want extra outfits or things like that I can just separate the skin from everything else easily, but scanning them all and positioning all the clothes and faces are such a pain…
Anyway, if you think that’s neat enough then I’ll just color them as is, but otherwise I’m going to make a clean CG line beforehand, okay?
lolikitsune 8:11 pm on December 31, 2008 Permalink |
It’s beautiful, please proceed as you like :)
Choux 7:58 pm on January 1, 2009 Permalink |
What kind of format should I be sent them to you? do you want a large image that you can manipulate with, sets of different sizes, or just 1 size? what format should it be? Are there any special requirements that it has to go through before it can be inserted into the game?
lolikitsune 11:54 pm on January 1, 2009 Permalink |
You said you have this in PSDs, right? If you email me those, I can tweak them however I like, and then turn them into jpegs or pngs that are ready for the game.
Do you have my e-mail address? Or are you planning on using an uploading site?
Choux 1:18 pm on January 2, 2009 Permalink |
Okay, that saves me a lot of trouble. I’ll just upload it onto mediafire or something, won’t be a problem.
