Test post, as I've never done an SSLP before. There are a few pics with pause in them that I need to replace because I'm dumb, but looking for any feedback. The game is Tormentum: Dark Sorrow

Lot of large images, so data warning.

One thing I'd recommend is making icons for all the characters who speak so you can just use those instead of putting in a screenshot for every single line of dialogue; it helps to keep things looking neat and will reduce the number of screenshots needed. In addition, I would personally resize the larger images so that all the images are the same size.

As a small break in that discussion(though that is all around a bad sounding idea), I re-did all my screenshots and did a bit of cleaning up, along with a few extra features. (Who knew someone uploaded the soundtrack to youtube?)

...That then begs the question of if that's wise, considering how OSTs linked through youtube gets removed at some point in the future.

Anyway, I think this is approaching postable territory.

Also, "game like popular MMOs"? What?

The only thing you might want to fix or play around with are the icons you're using for dialogue - they're kinda on the large size and would look better with transparency.

For example, I took the original Yugi icon:


And added some transparency and resized it:


Rule of thumb is basically that the icons should be as small as possible while still being clear enough that someone can take a single glance at it and recognize who's speaking.
