1.0 INTRODUCTION INCLUDES A) Identifications of problem(Innovation / Added Value / Existing Project) - Community (aimed at students) having problems to understand novels or literature component, which is one of the required learning in language subjects syllabus. B) Situation of problem - Novels are one of the ways to approach the community about information, data or story. Based on the survey made, there are a certain parts of community who prefer reading novels in the book medium. There are also a certain parts of community who could not stand reading thick books. Thus, they have come to search for alternatives in order for them to understand the novels. Such alternatives were invented like summaries of the novels, which shortens up the story and make it sweet for the readers to understand the story, leaving out the useless parts. Even so, those useless parts might be required to know, and some perspectives comment on summary books that they lack of full information, and might still leave the readers with no idea regarding the novels. Summary books may be easier to read and understand as they have points and interactive way such as short comics, mind maps and other attracting approaches. Even though, this type of approach would not leave everlasting impression and one might forgets about it someday. Thus, Visual Novel is a medium of improvement to the alternatives, without cutting out useless parts and enhancing the novel effectiveness itself. - Visual Novel is mainly a digital way of novel approach. Visual stands for the imaginary of the novel, while Novel stands for the story or information in the novel itself. Visual novel visualize the readers with the characters appearance, the scene and backgrounds, music or BGM, also the characters dialogues. Visual Novels are already existed in Japan and United States, along with other major countries. Thus, it is easier for them to understand novels while we Malaysian are struggling to understand them. Thus, this development is to introduce Malaysian to Visual Novel and its effectiveness to understand novels.

SOURCE 6 : INTERNET INTERNET SOURCE Visual Novel The Jot TITLE OF ARTICLE What are Visual Novels? AUTHOR(S) TheJot ADDRESS http://thejot.wordpress.com/visual-novel-reviews/what-are-visual-novels/ DATE OF DOCUMENTS OR DATE DOWNLOADED : 1.58PM, 6/5/2012 BIBLIOGRAPHY The, Jot. What are Visual Novels?. Wordpress, 2012 Two things learned from this source : 1. A visual novel: Most often confused with and assumed to be manga (Japanese comic books). This assumption
couldnt be further from the truth. 2. A visual novel can be seen as a combination of a novel and a computer game: theyre computer games with a large text based storyline and only little interaction of the player. A typical visual novel consists of text over an anime-style background image and is accompanied by background music. Throughout the game, the player usually has to answer a few questions which will have an effect on the story, thus playing a visual novel a second time while giving other answers may result in an entirely different plot.

SOURCE 7 : OTHER ENCYCLOPEDIA Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia TITLE OF ARTICLE Visual Novel AUTHOR(S) Various BIBLIOGRAPHY Wikipedia. Visual Novel. Wikipedia.com, 2012 Two things learned from this source : 1. Visual Novel are not to be confused with Graphic novel, Anime game, or Dating sim. They may look the same but they differ in certain aspects and their purpose. Visual Novel is is a work of interactive fiction, featuring mostly static graphics, most often using anime-style art or occasionally live-action stills (and sometimes video footage).[1] As the name might suggest, they resemble mixed-media novels or tableau vivant stage plays. They are analogous to a digitized version of a Choose Your Own Adventure novel. 2. The visual novel genre has evolved a style somewhat different from print novels. In general, visual novels are more likely to be narrated in the first person than the third, and to present events from the point of view of only one character. It is fairly common for the primary structural unit to be the day rather than the chapter, with formulaic awakenings and returning to bed framing each day's events. There are of course many exceptions to these generalizations. .

6.0 ABSTRACT A) Purpose of the project To ensure our project target, mainly to the students, to understand literature component and novels easier, better and leave everlasting impression on studied novels. For self-developing experience in the field of literature, field of programming and field of art and designs. B) Methods used : Brainstorming ideas regarding the novel storyline. Sharing ideas and creativity regarding the arts and designs of the novels sprite and sources. Teamwork in developing the game through respective engines. Usage of softwares like Adobe Photoshop, Paint Tool SAI, Sony Vegas Pro, Novelty and Microsoft Office for the development process. C) Data : Data are collected based on surveys made by us to project target, which is the student. A survey was made within Form 2 students in MRSM Gerik to gather thoughts, opinion and recommendations either novels in book form or visual novels in software form. The surveys are as the form included in the data and in the attachments. D) Conclusions : Through all of the described purpose, methods and the data collected, we have come to a conclusion of the difficulty on developing the project. The difficulty level is hard, as we have no experience in creating continuous literature (novel), art and designs in terms of drawing characters, creating backgrounds and programming it. A great number of people are required in order to create more better and professional Visual Novel. Based on the data collected, students are most likely to prefer Visual Novel more over novels. Even so, data might change from time to time based on the individuals themselves. Advisors comment :

9.0 CONCLUSION A) Suggestion for future use This thesis was made from all of the team members hard work, using the guidelines as reference. Thus, this thesis would require more improvement in the future as it would need of grading and opinions from the advisors. Even so, this thesis would be a good reference in the future regarding computer project. Visual Novel project would be a good idea for future development, as it would install the term technology regarding literature. Thus, it is advisable to develop Visual Novel more than summary books for the good. B) Comment Comments for the project could be made from the teamwork of the team members, either sufficient or lack of teamwork. It is also commendable to the tools or equipments used for this project, which we consider of giving us difficulties and hinders on completing the project. Thus, it is advisable to use better equipments such as better PC, a tablet for drawing and arts and other specific parts. The lack of experience would be good to be commented as we are just newbie to programming, CG coloring, arts and designs, also literatures. C) Addition for Improvement Even after going this far, the project still requires some more improvements for better results. Better tools and equipments would add up for better results. Experienced members are also required for guides, as well as comments on patching the project for better result. A good interview or acknowledgement from the expert is advisable. This project has not made any appointment or thought-sharing with any experts since Malaysia have yet exist any expert in the Visual Novel. Experts on the project are widely to be found in Japan, but without enough budgets, language knowledge and proper planning, it seems to be impossible. Advisors comment :
