I'm currently working on a visual novel inspired from Ongezellig. I'll post progress reports in this thread weekly on Sunday from now on as well as on my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@KudzuMedia)
10/20 Progress:
Began background art for protagonist's room and Vera's classroom (both unfinished) (pictured)
~230 added lines of character dialogue
Minimal progress on animation script
Character art, music, translations, and GUI customization not yet started
Notes:
I'd like to do as much of this as I can on my own since I find it to be a good opportunity to gain experience for professional projects in the future. However, I also don't want it to take several years, nor do I want to burn myself out on something I'm making for free. I'm confident I can do the background art and script on my own, but I am considering reaching out to others for character art and music, and I will definitely have to do so for translations. I still need to figure out how I want to approach it (basically my options are to commission people, collaborate with others who aren't strongly incentivized to follow through like commissioned people, or be super resourceful with how I'm spending my own time and energy). If you're interested in participating, though, let me know and I'll keep you in the back of my mind (even if its something I said I could probably do alone). I still intend on finding a way to do direct communication.
Also, the frame from the original thread was basically just a concept that won't actually be in the game.
>Also, the frame from the original thread was basically just a concept that won't actually be in the game.
Fuck.
You won't 'gate my post zelligger
It’s good to know I can now keep track of this my friend, I do still wish to speak to you privately, I feel like we would have a lot to talk about, I love Ongezellig and to know you have this impressive talent and you are using it and your time to make this for Ongezellig?
well it inspires me

10/27 Progress:
Completed dialogue script for whole introductory chapter pending minor changes
Finished most of the sprite animations for introductory chapter (using very rough placeholder sprites) (also fixing bugs with the transformations has been a pain in the ass)
Partly finished with background art of path to school (still needs some work so I won't attach an image)
>>1843
I've decided that I'll just be as resourceful as I can with this project so that it can actually realistically be finished without causing me to burn out and die, meaning a concentration on the script over tons of art pieces and sprites unless other people join in to help with those. I've also found some good free music libraries that I might tap into. Also, for communication, I don't really want to use email because of the potential for spam. My preference is the 'cord, but I know a lot of people here will never want to use it. Feedback/suggestions are appreciated, especially from those interested in participating in some way.
Although the project isn't ready for translations yet, I intend on finalizing the game chapter-by-chapter. So once I finalize the script for a chapter, I can begin writing the next chapter while translations for the previous one are made. Also, translators being able to provide additional pairs of eyes to review and provide feedback on the original script wouldn't hurt either.
It's so nice that VNZaryan grew to love the project's growing supporting group and subsequently accepted its help out of gratitude
So does that you will have a discord for us to join you for the ones who are interested? It will
Be great to have a way to speak to you
there is already a discord role for /oc/, not sure what the criteria for getting an account are but i guess that showing zoot your previous work is enough
Seems kinda troublesome for me can I just leave you my tag and be done with it? The sooner I can speak to you the better.
No location just found it on twitter or whatever it’s called, fuck
i'm not that guy. the purpose of the account is to allow you to namefag and coordinate your project without the risk of someone falseflagging and disrupting the discussion. that's actually the purpose of the board - coordinating oc projects. don't fall for the discord meme, nothing good has ever came from that site.
discord is well known for its magic ability to give people more free time and motivation
oh right roy has a circlejerk in a 'cord so its never finished or something
Either way this man been carrying this load on his lonesome and i want to give maya her happy ending, and if i can have hand of making that happen then hell yeah I’ll help carry the load and make a Ongezellig visual novel a reality
She’s more then just a dream
that is the zaryan's perfect dream, we want maya to have an ending atleast, this project vvill save the zarty
She deserves one after all, really everyone wants that (and everyone wants to help either). But yeah der 'cord is always the last possible choice, how did people organize before its existence anyways?
I think cord should be shut down after project is finished, no matter what happens, no matter how much of a "vibrant community" it becomes
>everyone I don't like is le newGOD or however the sentence is pasted
It was rhetorical, I was implying that people didn't use het 'cord and somehow still managed to go by, didn't they?
>Anyone from the current posters who wishes to get the "cord" role here, please email me and send me your ips.
most Zarty people are incompatible with the “Ongezellig enjoyers” (i assume you mean people like Massadonië members). they come from opposite spectrums of the Internet and trying to get them to come together will cause nothing but drama.
or they will try to replace us once they became accepted, analogous to what trannies do to all fandoms they are are accepted in
Wish I could help out, but I’m tied up with classes and my own audience to please, best wishes to you on your venture.
We created those "Ongezellig enjoyers" since you know, we are the originals. In a perfect world every off-siter would rightfully see the effort that WE have put in and recognize it. Instead what we got are trannies and faggots thinking we destroyed the "previous" community
there was an Ongezellig community for five years before this website was created. there was an Ongezellig community for three years before it was shilled on /qa/. i don’t understand why you think the people on this site are “the originals”.
I’m definitely a late entry but massadone has called me a spy but even with differences some people can still come together and overlook that and be cool people that make friends over a Dutch cartoon.
>there was an Ongezellig community for five years before this website was created.
Guess who the people who inhabit this website come from
>there was an Ongezellig community for three years before it was shilled on /qa/
Dutch people, I am talking strictly international (which is matters after all)
>i don’t understand why you think the people on this site are “the originals”.
We are so ingrained with Ongezellig that even /qa/ is present in the credits. This new off-siter community is relatively new and a byproduct of the post February 6th shilling we have done
Working together after giving up on conflict of preservation is always first stage of replacement of the old guard/group by the new group
Also the very first thread was posted on /co/ in 2018, the very first Zaryans were born there, but like 'teens immigrating to the sharty, it would be wrong to label the average /co/ user as a Zaryan and vice versa
>picrel
I have no interest replacing any one I want to contribute with this guy into making something that everyone can enjoy.
Intents don't matter. If trannies/faggots/ziggers are accepted no matter the intention they will then try to kick out "le evil chuds" and replace them, this happend always before, in most fandoms that were liberal enough to accept them
Sometimes it is better to fight than to accept replacement though. And we will never get replaced
>Snoot Game
Go back to /trash/ where you belong, you should know first and foremost what happens when a community just accepts anyone
it is true. the site was mostly shilled on the sharty. it was also shilled on /co/ indirectly, but was mostly seen as a sharty puppet (not everyone reacted negatively, but still).
i think there were a really few from /qa/ days, but have moved on (since a lot has happened to both zellig and the sharty)
>make discord server pls o algo
>almost half of people agree with this
I love how you zelliggers constantly change your mind for the sake of 'zellig profit.
>but you don't understand chuddy, this will help make game development easi-AAAAAAAAAAACK
Then go away from my aryan site you offsite faggot
Can't blame them honestly, they loved it as much as we do, but couldn't stand the prospect of a discontinuation.
as seen from this thread, cord was pushed mainly by small limited number of overly active offsiters, "ongezellig fans", and 4cuckers
I am fine with not getting official stuff, of course, it sucks. But this also means that shilling it is essentially a dead end, leaving only one sensible and viable option: making projects and actually enjoying the chuddy community. Something that most off-siters (if not all) struggle to understand. Just browse through r/zellig, and it's like night and day, people still under the illusion that shilling it now will have some sort of effect. The only consequence of it will be to bring in even more faggots, and tourists, people who couldn't give more of a shit right. Ongezellig made it this far because the chuddies behind it are actually passionate, no matter what happens
Never forget Zaryans are soyteens
OH SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
>My goal is not to build a community with it or shift away from this site.
Now that's more like it
It should also be removed after project is finished so 4cuck and zigger infiltrators won't have a chance to dominate zellig culture.
>let's delete the thread when the project is finished and turn it into lost media o algo
No nigga, I will archive this and I'll show everyone what you do
Um, I think everything went wrong after you created your posts
>>saar please fix mi English saar show mi the error saar
Yes I intend on this too. A server is not even close to necessary at this point either without separate artists/programmers/writers working together.
GET THE FUCK OUT FROM MY ARYAN SITE YOU FUCKING NORMIES
Im not op or an author, im just a random person suggesting to remove discord server after project gets finished so that it wouldnt get infiltrated
i dont see the point in a cord server, when a whole animation collab was made only using the zarty
We should try to stick with the zarty as much as we can
>this, so much this that Be The Fuck Outed all offsiters
Maybe trvthtzarbomba instead of tsmt?
>70 posts arguing about how I talk to them
If you want to talk to me one-on-one, my 'cord tag is kudzumedia. I don't want to use email because its not 2009 and I don't want gay interracial porn to end up in my inbox. Otherwise, just talk to me here.
we ARE interested, we just want the best for this project of zoeits
I mean interested in either participating in it or talking to me directly about it
RAID IT AND RAPE THIS CORDTROON
Why do you have a spade edit of a tranime character as your pfp when I went to go add you?
It's infected, Zoot completely nvke this site.
Again, there's literally thousands of options to choose from. Even shitter would have been better, yet der 'cord.

You decided to use kikecord to speak with one another. You deserve whatever happens if you speak on that tranny hellscape nigger.
>do any of hou niggers even wanna help this guy? your life wouldnt even change if he used cord or not
How many times do we need to say it? Literally everyone wants to help, but 'cord is a big nono
I’m at work right now but I would like to talk to you in two hours when I get off
I sent a request username I’m D-B
11/3 Progress
I've extended what I'm considering the "introductory chapter", so some of this contradicts what I've already said.
Finished script for first ~75% of introductory chapter
Completed all sprite transformations (except changes in expressions) for first ~75% of introductory chapter, all related bugs fixed.
Improved background art for protagonist's bedroom and Vera's classroom
Mostly completed the background art for the route to school
Improved significantly with working with Renpy and Python; future progress in programming will be done quicker now that I have a good idea of what works well and what doesn't.
The biggest things I need to do are character sprites/cgs/background art. I'll probably start working on the sprites this week. Once the art is done, I can start really pumping out the script. I'm also considering just completing the whole introductory chapter and releasing it as a demo so I can get feedback early on. Making these updates and responding to comments also takes a good chunk of time, so I might do them unscheduled and less regularly than I have been.
I hope you're a genius and make this funny and engaging instead of cringe and gay
Faggot, email is timeless, just make a burner if you're scared of bibisis in your inbox (never happens btw)
faggot retard

Most low effort edit award.
Also
>Discord users are le nigger even though its banned in only russia and turkey which are both shitskin centrals
From what I know it is, but the dev is more volatile than the 6 million pizzas
>>2640
I am still working on it. I'm mainly trying to complete the script right now before doing more art. One of the reasons I'm pausing regular updates is because I don't want to build up too much anticipation too early, since life could always get in the way. I will resume them at some point once good progress is made.
Final Zarty Update
Due to the scale of this project growing drastically greater than first intended, I've decided to drop all Ongezellig-related aspects to the VN and use what I have to create something fully original instead. This was originally mostly intended as a mere experiment to test making VNs and writing a story. Now, though, since the stakes are much higher and much more personal investment is needed to do what I wish, I would like to own the characters and the setting that I'm using to mitigate copyright risk and to claim originality.
I still imagine this project as having themes similar to what Ongezellig did (and hopefully still appreciated by its audience). I'm also actually able to keep most of the script, as so much of it was based on new imaginations of the story rather than what was already seen in the pilot. The vast majority of art is also not yet developed, so I'm not set back here, either. However, this is definitely NAZ anymore and I won't continue to post updates for it on the Zarty after this.
Thanks a ton to all those who have offered help and feedback.
Zootist ending, I hope this turns out well for you Zaryan, how will we know it's yours when it's done?
its over, we're losing on all fronts
Oh
It's a bit of a disappointment for the lot of us but if you're planning on making a serious visual novel (even tho they're gay) rather than a meme, it's probably for the best. Do post updates doe.
>inb4 zoor ip
I'll still post updates on the youtube channel when the time comes to make them again
Geg, ohnonono zarty fags, what's this? There goes another of your precious oc zellig projects that was supposed to be your saviour for why this community is supposed to be "le good" for months, who could have seen this coming?
Whatever will you do now, wait let me guess! The next dead nigger of project is your new hype, yes, that will show them! Who needs actual self reflection when you can have an endless capacity for copium and toxic tumour like behaviour!
this doesn't really affect us at all
Fail
no arguments, just foenkie tier butthurt and clitty leakage
Hello there people of Zarty I’m Danny-Boy you might seen me around twitter sharing and using the Ongezellig hashtags if not then I just want say hello there good to meet you
I’m a Ongezellig fan through and through I only wish to make something for everyone can enjoy, im making a visual novel for Ongezellig and I want to bring the community into a new era of prosperity
I hate that even a fandom small like us we are in this red vs blue bullshit I simply wish to enjoy the show without gooners freaks and power tripping assholes being a part of it
So in order to take the first steps I’m willing to have people from zarty join me im in need of progammers or coders who knows Ren’py
I want to state I’m not with any sides I’m just some dude who dive into this loving this funny Dutch show if anything I’m in the middle and I have a goal, ever since update 130 I felt motivated to give maya mymy and coco their endings and a proper send off massa might turn his back on them but I won’t not till their story is made and shared
Let’s try to work together and build a better future for the Ongezellig community
