uh… I’m not sure if u know, but ddlc is VERY inappropriate (at least some of it) and I’m not sure a dating sim… Would be… Authorized..
I mean, Jeffo LITERALLY said the game has to be appropriate for at least a room full of kids.

I mean it’s not an exact copy is it?
pretty sure he just said it would be inspired from that.
and it’s ovals on a screen with cylinders for legs as long as the wording is appropriate I do believe it’ll believe it’ll be allowed to a small extent.

I mean yeah romance is a topic that can be appropriate for a room of kids it’s just dependent on the dude himself if he’s gonna be adding stuff like that and I mean if it does get to a point where it gets inappropriate
most we can do is just report it and wait for it to get taken down and seeing as how we’ve supplied a sufficient amount of info on that I do believe trying to tell em it’s inapropriate would be a waste of time should that time come to be. so entirely up to the og poster. but that’s if he publishes it or showcases it to like gimkit discord or any gk related platforms. anything further then that is not worth the worry.

We are aware OP hasn’t made a single reply to this post, yeah?
In terms of how appropriate the game is, I agree with blackfox, and all of the psychological horror elements in DDLC (including but not limited to self-termination and parental abuse) are a no-go. Still, you can just make the game and not publish it.

I agree, I agree to @some_kid
Just has to be appropriate for a 3rd Grader.
Now that we decided that it’s appropriate should we move on to what the OP actually really wanted?
Like actually making it? We kind of spent 25 replies just asking if its appropriate…
Are you going to Gims as your people in the game, or are you going to do barrier art? they both are very memory consuming.
also have you planned the story of your game? Is it going to be very long? [1] Or is very short? [2]

Ok, so the first problem I’ve encountered is aligning the text.
In DDLC and most visual novels, text is aligned with the left side of the dialogue box. Gimkit centers text in text devices. So, unless we want to have a separate text device for every single line of dialogue, we’ll need a way to keep the starting point of text consistent regardless of the content.
