Cucumber Quest is good. Really good.

>> No. 210449
>>210416
It's very possible. But I've also got another theory:

Some of the visual foreshadowing that's been going on implies Duane's brother might be about to betray him somehow. But it also suggests he has a special soft spot in his heart for his niece. I think there's a reasonably good possibility that when Lemuel makes his move, it gets Duane killed, but he either adopts the girl or gets her to a safe place first.

...it's hopelessly optimistic, maybe, especially given that Duane clearly has a personal reason for hating to see children suffering, but it's all I've got to cling to right now.

He has been dead for 7 years.

Lemuel saw him die on the battlefield, if that short flashback in chapter 1 is indicative of anything. I don't think he killed Duane though, and I don't think he is Murkoph either. He and Murkoph have a completely different speaking style, and they both have scars on their faces but Lemuel's runs diagonally across his nose and Murkoph doesn't have that, only a hatching pattern that looks more like he got them while being tortured than in battle.

I don't mind playing fast and loose with myths but Olympus Overdrive has a really shallow interpretation of the characters it portrays imo. It's not really that they're doing it "wrong" that gets me, it's that they didn't really research what they were writing about and depend on diluted pop culture versions of Greek myths.

Plus I think it would have been funnier if Hades looked exactly the same as he did before, just purple and stumpy, instead of a gremlin boy.

Given that Ghallager can't reliably produce two pages of uninked, uncolored art a week, how on earth are they expecting him to make a huge VN in six months?
>> No. 211416
>>211414
You might be overestimating the number of drawings that have to be made for a Visual Novel. A lot of the time and effort involved in making a page of a comic is in things that do not apply in a Visual Novel--things like Scene Composition, Panel Layout, and redrawing backgrounds over and over. VNs can get away with a handful of backgrounds that get automatically updated over and over, and a series of Paper Dolls for each character--probably somewhere around 10-20 per character, maybe more for the major characters, and maybe as few as two or three for the relatively unimportant characters.

One-off tableaus for "special" scenes will take longer, but honestly, I imagine six months to make the art assets isn't that big a deal. Especially since he's already got the character and location designs in place.

Programming's not going to take any time at all, really. There are middleware engines out there that'll do all the work for you, but even if you were to reinvent the wheel, Visual Novels are not exactly complex physics simulations.

Writing is a big variable because it depends how much player choices affect the story. But even then, I doubt it'll take as long as the art assets unless it gets really ambitious or he hits a writer's block.

Went back and checked it out, not really a flashback- it's the very next thing protagonist gal did. Buuuut it starts with TWO flash forwards, and then ends with one flash-forward. So yeah, confusing. Here's a breakdown.

>Chapter X ends. Protagonist gal had to kill two people, depressing stuff.

>Chapter Y starts with flash forward to Arbutus humans investigating what happened to Primrose station
>Head investigator says "wait, zoom and enhance." We see cam footage of protagonist gal escaping primrose station.
>Next panel: Protagonist arriving at Primrose station, half a day earlier. We can see that she's using an ID card from one of the people she killed in chapter X. Shit goes down. Protagonist eventually makes her escape.
>Flash forward again to Arbutus investigation, where they go "well shit, that explains what happened" and close the case.

>Chapter Z starts.

He can tell Sette apart from his daughter... usually. I think at night he might relive his death over and over in the khert until he is dragged back into the world of the living. He's not fully here at the moment.

Oh come on. If a character isn't flat-out ugly she's going to be fanservice to SOMEONE, but Kat usually isn't (in the comic at least), the Battle Bunnies seem pretty neat, far from bland, and anyone that calls the girls in Little Victory "bland" is officially without a heart.

>It sounds like what he's complaining about is not that they are characters who participate in fanservice, but that they are characters whose purpose is primarily fanservice and/or fantasy fulfillment.

I'd say "the characters are fantasy fulfillment" is a fair criticism. But one you could apply lots of places. The characters in Harry Potter are fantasy fulfillment. The characters in Star Trek are fantasy fulfillment. Batman's fantasy fulfillment.

JollyJack DOES do Cheesecake (and beefcake) and doesn't feel an ounce of shame about it. And I really don't have a problem with that. It works organically enough in his stuff. It doesn't have the forced "this is just to show tits, but we're pretending it's not" feel of 90s bad girl comics. The times he sets out to show fanservice, he usually doesn't exactly pretend he's doing anything else. I can respect that.

>>213065
>the author has always come off as a tool.

I can see how him making fun of certain readers would be a problem if you really care about author interactions... but for the most part I've ended up taking his side on the things. Someone actually accused him of being into bestiality for doing "sexy anthros". That's a thing that actually happened. Many authors would just brush that off, but I'm not going to hold it against him that he made a comic about the ridiculous argument. If someone says something stupid to a guy that writes humor for a living, that's fair game.

Sometimes a writer calling out the stupidity of some readers really bothers me (John Byrne...) but the times he did it, it really didn't bother me.

Oddly enough, the venting thing that really made me groan was a throw-away stick figure strip that had the strawman stick figure get angry and slap the author at the end. I mean, what kind of person is passive aggressive in their own fantasies?
>> No. 213072
>>213063
Mostly I'm referring to the fact that there is a pretty clear contrast between Kat's portrayal at the beginning of the comic, and what she slowly morphed into.
She started out "cute." Not exactly filled out, but also not unattractive. But at some point she took on the same stock sexy proportions he gives to all of his female characters. She and Hillary, ("successful grown-up rival" character/SUPERMODEL Hillary), now have THE EXACT SAME BODYTYPE. And that's not even getting into the squirrel quadruplets.
Like, in several ways, Jackson's art has improved, the comic definitely started out really rough around the edges. But the way he draws every single women has just become so exaggerated and samey that the designs suffer from it, and they all have weird googly eyes slowly migrating to the sides of their faces.
Not to mention he really can't take criticism to save his life.

Since his reinvention (that is to say, discounting early Lil' E and "Gay Sinfest"): we have: Seymour the fundamentalist/God-fanboy, who's transparently a closet gay joke for Jesus, and That One Gay Guy (pictured) who likes to play up the swishiness to irk homophobes. This strip was the height of his development and he seldom appears.

So, not as much as racial issues. And not neaaarly as much as third-wave feminism, furtherance of which is now the primary character arc of the entire cast.

I think this has been why I was so flaky on webcomics for awhile. A lot of webcomic artists quit right after starting their comic, or the story took a turn that was really stupid, or it felt like they were cramming everything they wanted to see in a comic into one thing. Which sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. That's why I never started a webcomic myself. I knew I couldn't keep a regular schedule (unless I was working with someone who could get me to continue working), the fact that most of the things I really like aren't what other people usually want to read...
>> No. 214187
>>214152
I like the comic but not much has happened and its great aesthetic actually makes for some weak paneling and sense of sequential art. It could really benefit from ditching the standard page format and freeing itself to take as much space as necessary, because holy damn cramming so much into so little doesn't work out sometimes.
