"My bones creak loudly in protest as I attempt to get up."
"God, how did I fall asleep in this awkward position?"

While not exact, above is a short snippet of the script we produce for each chapter. And much like this one I'm writing right now, there's also an extensive amount of both research and exploration done before a single word is written.
Though for an adult novel, the subject of our research and also more suitably...adult. That includes reading both romance novels, to playing other adult games of the same genre.
Unfortunately, as most of you might have noticed - Adult visual novel of the sort we're making here are rather hard to come by. Which also means scant research materials in this area. Although yes, we still have other materials to be inspired by - films, books and animations.
The difference between simply watching a film or playing a gaming as oppose to research is of course, just writing things down. And we've accumulated a fair amount of ideas and more over the years!
I've had some excellent games recommended to me for this exact purpose - and I'm always on the lookout for more! Any suggestions? Please leave them in the comments or message me directly!
