Hey guys, figured I'd make one last thread before I start securing people into spots. The last thread I made was Sunday, and this will be the last thread until I have the final product to post.
>What is this People always complain that the English dubs in games are always shit and one user said, "Why don't WE do a dub?" and I took him up on that challenge and chose this game since it's pretty light hearted and fun. Right now, we're just doing the first few minutes of the game because I didn't want to bite off more than I could chew. And boy am I glad I took that precaution. >What we need We need a girl or two in our ranks. There is a female co-heroine, and a female side character who gets 2 lines. We need them both filled. However, if you are male and end up interested in the other characters, I will not turn you down. Anybody with a good voice will be heavily considered, and with who I have already, I'm likely going to create multiple final clips anyway. I'd hate to tell them "Sorry, but this guy was 1% better than you so you're out of a part lol" and I think it'll be fun for everybody to hear the different takes everyone else had. >What is getting voice acted? This youtube.com/watch?v=kHFhra40RRE
>How do I join? You'll have to join the discord server, DqVqW3Z. There is NO cancer and submit a vocaroo (vocaroo.com/) with you saying some stuff, ideally in a tone that you think fits the character you're hoping to play. >How will this all come together? Once we get all the parts filled, I'm going to have everybody record their lines individually. Once all that is finished, I'm going to edit the files so that the volume all matches, and re-record the gameplay segment so that the video recording will match the audio. That way, everyone has the freedom to really express their character without being confined to how fast I pressed A.
This project is purely for fun, and is only being worked on with people from Yas Forums, for people on Yas Forums. It has not been posted anywhere else and have no plans on outsources any parts to other websites either. There will be no mod for people to download either, it's just going to be a youtube clip. If I was looking for fame or some shit, I wouldn't be coming here.

Can you at least forget to sage so the thread actually bumps?
John Bennett
It's nice to see someone trying to get Yas Forums together to do something that isn't shitposting or whining even if it's super gay? Either way I'm excited to see what a sad mess this turns out to be if anything. Good luck and here's a bump.
Not to put down your effort, but something I've noticed is that games that are clearly written with the intent of being text only sound very different from games written with the intent of being voiced.
It ends up sounding more like an audiobook or something when it's just reading off dialogue boxes, rather than sounding like a scene between actual actors.

>Go to skillshare Defeats the entire purpose. This is meant as a Yas Forums activity. It could be the shittiest end result in the world and I'd still be satisfied. But to give you a taste of what we have: vocaroo.com/8H0HJTue5Jk This is with 0 direction other than what's in the threads, so I know that with some retakes and direction, it's going to turn out good. Everyone so far is on par with this guy which is not surprising to me at all. It's going to turn out good, and I know it.
Jackson Reyes
Best of luck to you user, I'm interested in seeing where this goes
Jason Thomas
It's not meant to be an improvement to the game. Just an exercise for the board to do something besides play the same 3 games for 16 hours every day.
Eli Young
Are there goofy voices?
Christian Carter
I initially offered it as an option but nobody seemed interested in it. There was only one guy who sent something for it so I scrapped it. If we get 5 more people plus you, I'd be fine bringing it back.
Parker Phillips
How good does the mic have to be? Mine is shit.
Nathan Martinez
As long as it doesn't sound like it's attached to a laptop, it should be fine. We've got like 10 people who auditioned, 9 of which have headsets. Give it a shot.
Adrian Bailey
>14 posts in >post to IP ratio is already off GO FUCKING SHILL ON REDDIT NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR GAME NO ONE WANTS TO PLAY A SHITTY GAME VOICED BY PEOPLE WITH SHITTY MICS AND MINIMAL TALENT
Jayden Wright
>OP is not allowed to post in his thread answering questions lol Also this project is not for reddit, because reddit is for faggots. I will not have faggots a part of my team.
Mason Martin
based. OP is a fag and wants to listen to trannies talk to him
Yeah that's why I'd been keeping it under wraps for a bit, I didn't want to discourage people from applying just because someone sounds good. Ideally, if we got enough people, we could keep going and open up more slots.
John Cruz
Voice actor faggots are the worse human beings.
Brody Bailey
>Either way I'm excited to see what a sad mess this turns out to be Made me laugh. Good luck, OP.
Luke Hughes
> Always wanted to do this > Every time I talk I have fucking white noise in the background How the fuck do I fix this shit, fuck.
Do you have a reason to think it's not the cheap mic?
Brayden Green
>if it turns out good, then people can be proud of what they worked on >if it turns out shit, then everybody who watched get a big kek win/win in my book
Yeah sounds like a cheap mic. From everybody that I've heard talk so far, they've all had headsets and the noise is nonexistent.
Dominic Richardson
If you have a smartphone, there are plenty of apps that let you record your voice.
Justin Cooper
If you get a lot of shit entries, make something like those Yas Forums dubs things, those are great.
Jacob Brooks
Pic related is it, it's a wireless headset my roommate has as well and I don't hear any white noise on his end. You can hear what I'm talking about very well at the start but it disappears a little bit later, think it's the websites option to lower background noises. voca.ro/bMsj5rd0sHt
>Not to put down your effort, but something I've noticed is that games that are clearly written with the intent of being text only sound very different from games written with the intent of being voiced.
This little line is extremely important and true, I'll screencap this if you will.
Yeah this is about the mic quality that we've been getting and is expected. It's not a serious project so no uber equipment required. You're fine.
Other people have joined today. Which part are you looking for?
See . I'll screen cap that post myself if you'd like lol
John Walker
I’m thinking about joining just for fun to see if we can even just shoot the shit. Is there any ideal voice going on or is it fully improv for the characters?
John Roberts
>If you plan on voicing, please send something in by Wednesday, April 8th Is there a new deadline or just by the end of tonight?
Andrew Roberts
It wasn't meant for this thread but for general purposes. There are retards who keep trying to insist that voices are necessary for some visual novel titles and this post is the perfect embodiment of what I've been trying to argue for years now. But I wasn't exactly aware of how to say it
Nolan Martinez
>Is there any ideal voice going on or is it fully improv for the characters? I'm kind of doing a bit of both. in the google doc, I've put down that I've written vocal/tone instruction for each line but that the instructions are not final. If the VA thinks they can make something sound good, do it.
Totally forgot about that, fixed it for Friday since I have someone that may apply for Vi and I gave her until tomorrow.
That, I can agree with. This will 100% take away the charm the original game has.
Xavier Smith
>need a girl in our ranks im not a girl, nor can I do a good girly voice, but why not just make one of them have a man's voice for shits and giggles
James Thompson
That's actually what the backup plan is. Thankfully Vi's gender is not officially mentioned at any point so if nobody steps up, we'll cast Vi as a teenage boy.
Aiden Ramirez
I loved this game but I have a horrible voice, so I'll watch (listen?) with interest.
Zachary Sanchez
>Thankfully Vi's gender is not officially mentioned at any point so if nobody steps up, we'll cast Vi as a teenage boy. All honeybees are confirmed female. The only bees that are male are Crisbee and the dev bumblebee.
Yes but we at this point we don't have much choice. Though I'm not about to have an actual tranny pretending to be a girl for this project, it's out of the question. They either trick everybody, or they trick nobody.
Josiah Gonzalez
Then why is your solution making Vi a tranny? Just say fuck it and have a guy voice her, the viceversa happens in a shit ton of cartoons Based thread regardless, I like this game a lot
Xavier Diaz
(In a fem voice i mean)
Justin Hughes
Because then it's going to sound like absolute shit, and would definitely stick out like a sore thumb compared to everyone else. Besides, I doubt we'll get far enough in the story, where (story spoilers) it gets mentioned that she's a princess in chapter 2 I think. It's pretty far in compared to where we are right now, and I imagine not everybody is going to want to go that far.
Ayden Watson
>What we need >We need a girl or two in our ranks Thinly veiled incel thread, Op just wants a girl to talk to him.
Nathan Cook
>People always complain that the English dubs in games are always shit and one user said, "Why don't WE do a dub?" You're probably aware already, but one of the reasons dubs are shit is because they're not inline with the director's vision. As such, I don't think changing the voice actors would make a dub good as it's still not inline with the director's vision. It's best to only make one compromise which is a roundabout way to say you should only rely on a english translation, which hopefully was helmed under the director's vision as well, and not settle for 'localization'. Either way, good luck and have this free bump.
Owen Collins
I still think it's possible if you can find a really aggressively femboyish guy who would jump at the chance to roleplay as a plucky 16 something year old girl
can't be too hard on Yas Forums
Gabriel Baker
bump
James Collins
Appreciated, but the only reason why I didn't bump myself was because I figure anybody that was browsing Yas Forums tonight would have seen the thread by now.
Evan Morgan
>want to take part >don't have a range that would fit any of the characters in that video
I can't believe cloud saves weren't in this game from the beginning. now i have to restart my entire fuckign game because my old laptop got lost and my new computer has the game but it didn't have cloud saves at the time. fuck. guess this'll give me an excuse to try out hard mode.
Christian Garcia
It's a shame. There is a big, fat, hearty chef that I KNOW someone on Yas Forums could nail, but it's uncertain how far we will go. There's an old beetle too, which I bet would be funny to listen to. I wonder how many old people browse, or how many people that browse that could do a convincing old-man.
Christopher Clark
Do you want a specific level of audio quality? I have a naturally deep voice but no good mics.
Jose Cruz
Depends on what you consider good/bad. user earlier was panicking about his mic quality but it turned out to be fine
Logan Harris
who voices tanjerin
Michael Wright
Taking bug fables lewd requests. Will deliver on /i/
Cameron Butler
who's tanjerin Also we probably won't even get past chapter 1 but if we do, I'll be making more threads.
