As I've tried to visualize the entire
plot of the visual novel, some details and instances don't reveal
themselves until I'm writing a particular scene. This has opened up
the need for a few extra background scenes, so I'm glad that I'm more
than half-way finished with the script, now that I've started talking
with background artists about what I need. I still worry about the
unfinished scenes, though, and what I might end up needing. As I
write the script, I try to design the plot progression to follow the
larger framework for the story that I've envisioned, but different
circumstances sometimes result in different needs for background art.
In one instance, one of the logical choice options I wrote actually
results in you having a different experience in a different location.
This of course requires extra background art. So, the remaining 35%
of the game I have yet to write carries with it the possibility of
requiring a few extra background scenes. Of course, I could save some
money for the background art by rewriting that story path, but I
really think it will enhance the game to have it there. This also
adds to replay value!
