Rondo Duo, Video, GameRip

As you might know it, Rondo Duo ~Dawn at Fortissimo is a japanese visual novel that’s been released by doujin union Tinkle Bell last Halloween. Plot-wise, it has little to no importance (it is a nukige, so do not expect more than lots of H-scene) but from an artistic perspective, it’s very interesting. In reality, Tinkle Bell uses an handmade Flash engine to make everything animated. Whereas rival japanese companies (like Windmill Oasis who introduced it 1st with Witch Garden back in 2012) primarily uses the « Emote » system as a light gimmick, this new system does reproduce the illusion of movement pretty well. The art is beautiful and coherent with the animation, and the audio effect actually adds a lot too much. In short, the cinematics are pleasant.

Seeing the intro episode of Rondo Duo makes you wonder what it’d be like if visual novel with a true plot used cinematics like that. Of course, I’m not speaking of a full-animated visual novel, it would be expensive as hades for indie creators. Tinkle Bell itself took 6 years to stop their distraction (it was announced back in 2008) and there was like 2 or three people working in the team during all this time (I do not think they were working full time on that though). Not awfulegregious for a doujin company but u watch my point. What I’m in truth curious to see is a visual novel with ponctual cinematics like that, done merely for key scenes. I have the feeling it would combine a lot to the practice. I’m sure every visual novel reader had seen moments where static pics weren’t adequate to convey the right emotion (like battle scenes or dramatic episodes).
