Weekly Update and discussion thingy~

Hey all, so a bunch of y'all probably has played the April Fool's game. And the joke is actually that there is no joke this year, hahahaha. I have lulled everyone into a sense of false security by releasing fake games for 3 years on April's Fool, all for this moment.

But yeap yeap, next Patron/ Subscriber release is coming on 2nd May. So let's get into it.

Plot:

The player receives a watch that allows him to dive into the minds of certain girls in school. By entering their minds, he is able to increase their affection towards him. Go even deeper and you'll be able to have them do some more fun stuff...

However, you soon find that you're not the only one with a new watch. Two (maybe 3?) other guys in school are able to Dive as well, and you'll need to balance offense and defense! (Unless you turn off the option for rivals, whichever floats your boat)

Gameplay:

The general idea is that you will be going to school everyday except for Saturday and Sunday. In school, you will get to have 3 actions, one for the morning, one during recess and one after school. The schedule of the girls depends on the time period as well as a layer of RNG. Like Tessa will always be on the track after school, and how Ange has a significantly higher chance to be in the library compared to other places.

The mini-game for the girls has 2 segments. Both need to be completed with the time limit. The first part has you needing to match the icons, every 5 correct icons will give you one affinity. Later on, every wrong icon will decrease affinity by 1.

Once you are happy with your score, you will need to lock in your affinity by completing the second mini-game by pressing this button.

The idea is that players will have to balance risk and reward, do you play until the last minute to maximise affinity gain? Or do you opt for less affinity but ample time to lock in your affinity?

Characters:

Ange

Ange is the librarian of the school. Third year
She's a shy girl that has problems making friends.

Eiko

Eiko is your little sister. First year
She's a nice girl that teases you a lot.

Irene

Irene is your homeroom teacher.
She's a teacher that tries a bit too hard to appear sexy and mature for some reason...

Luka

Luka is your childhood friend, the both of you got assigned to the same area and class. Second Year
She's an easy going girl that gets along well with most people. Has a boyfriend that was assigned to a different area.

Rena

Rena is your classmate. Second Year
She's a short girl in your class that doesn't seem very friendly. She always seems to be in a bad mood...?

Tessa

Tessa is the school track star. Third Year Student. She's a serious and cold girl that doesn't seem to have much interest in things unrelated to running or...?

Rivals :

To make it clear once more, for people who don't want pressure or are afraid to lose, you can choose to not have rivals at the start of the game.

There's a plan total of 2 rivals, but not super sure on who to go for. We'll definitely need the usual ugly bastard, cause we respect tradition here.

The second option is more flexible, or we could even have a third, but these were what I was thinking:

- The suave handsome teacher

This dude will basically be a bishounen that probably doesn't even need the watch.

- The douchebag third year

Maybe a playboy dude that's sleeps around with a lot of women.

- The creepy weirdo

Maybe some skinny dude that's lowkey creepy, but made his move after getting his hand on the watch.

The current idea that I have (if you have rivals enabled), is that if a girl gets fully "conquered" by them, they will dress in the way that the rival likes. You will be able to dress them up in the way you like as well, just in case that wasn't clear.
Like for example, for the janitor girls, they will be full on dressing up like trashy sluts.
If the creepy dude gets it, maybe the girl will be wearing cringy anime stuff.

However things will not be a constant tug of war, once you get a girl to 100%, she will be locked in to you, the rivals will not be able to interact with her anymore, and ice versa! So no worries about leaving your 100% girls alone!

So yeap yeap! I do want all of your opinions, ideally on:

• Any mini-games y'all wanna see?

• Any designs of the girls y'all wanna see changed or updated?

• Any specific thing that y'all hate/ want to see more of?

• Any specific types of rivals y'all wanna see?

Please do let me know!
