I wouldn't be at all sorry about going slightly off topic, as this is a mod thread, and we're talking about modding - not this mod per se, but bleh, plenty of other rambling going on here... the new Discord for Silver is full of so much fluffing, spam, and nonsense that this brief discussion could hardly be considered as detracting.
Ha ha ha! Sweet, I'm glad you also see the potential and fun to be had in making those particular games come alive.
Yup, I'm very much into chibis, so the Buffy parody game will have them aplenty

Capturing the atmosphere of the series and each of the characters is of the utmost importance in delivering an immersive experience!
I am going to make the Buffy game centralised around her, so that she is controlled by the player. That way there shall be heaps of room to play - locations, character interactions, scenes directly from the series, etc,.
There will be many males and females who try and get Buffy into bed... and most importantly, comedic angles (in Joss Whedon style) employed at various junctures.
Those clips were good - amazing how dated they look, I think it vital we capture the feeling of the tv show, else it will be just another lame fanfiction attempt.
As you indicated, elements of the buffy musical episode ("Once more with feeling") shall appear here and there.
The Buffy comics were a reasonable go on extending the universe, but lacked a lot of nuances in expressions and deliveries of quips. Same goes for some of those games they put out.
Yeah, I thought Angel was a tosser in Buffy (he came good in Angel 2nd or 3rd season), some characters like him will be given the short stick - lol.

Finally got the Surface Pro (woo!), started working on all new Witch Trainer art assets, going to take a lil while to familiarise and get comfortable with CLIP STUDIO PAINT (Manga Studio 5)... but things are VERY much different now with this beautiful beast!
OH!! I found my translations of WT Russian Mod 1.52 (thought I deleted it once when I decided to quit modding WT), it might be what I go back to using... not sure yet.
