It's important for small developers to be mindful of a first project's scope. When an idea is vivid in your mind, many want a grand epic, but it's very easy to hit snags and burn out. Start big and chip away to the essentials. #visualnovel | #vndev | #indievn | #gamedev

RoR Dev Note: Romance of Raskya was the culmination of 5 years of work, but we were developing other visual novels before that! The world that RoR takes place in was originally developed in another historical fantasy idea. #visualnovel | #vndev | #indievn | #gamedev

The fall of the Roman Republic was a key inspiration during the early development of Romance of Raskya -- Both Marius and Sulla defied longstanding traditions of the Republic as a means to seize power directly. #visualnovel | #vndev | #indievn

RoR Dev Note: Sergius and Sejanus were inspired by the Roman Republic generals/statesmen Gaius Marius and Sulla, two key figures whose actions led to the eventual downfall of the Roman Republic. #visualnovel | #vndev | #indievn

As the plot was fleshed out and character connections grew, Nasrin's name, look, and personality gradually developed. It became a point where we fell in love with the character she was becoming. Before long, she had her own route! #visualnovel #devnotes #vn #indiegame

RoR Dev Note: Did you know that Nasrin was originally an unnamed character without a route? As we developed Romance of Raskya, we had to establish a way that Valerius and Clodia could contact each other. She was originally that connection.#visualnovel #devnotes #vn #indiegame
