Weekly Update 02/11/2024
Progress:
Finished first scene (Fight scene)
52 renders
Starting on second scene
Begining Choreographing the second fight scene
Re-wrote some parts of the script for fluency
Man, I spent the whole week doing the first fight scene, what the hell. But it was worth it! I'm quite satisfied with the result. But of course, in terms of efficiency, it's not as well as I want it to be.
For now, at least for non-fight scene, my goal is to render at least 100 images per week. We'll see how it goes.
Discussion:
Don't want to turn this to another text wall so I'll keep it shorter this time. This week, I want to discuss how I will write the Li's path according to your choices.
I mentioned that the player will have the ability to choose not to develop their relationship with an LI. But, what does that mean? See, to stop development means to show disinterest. The game should present options for players to show their disinterest at the appropriate time, and the LI will slowly recognise this disinterest. So here's the big question: how will LIs show this disinterest? When the player chose enough negative options, the LIs will stop engaging MC in a way that implies romance. This means, their dialogues will be different, their action will be different, and the choices they offer MC will be different. I know it's a bit vague but it's no fun if I explain everything.
I also want this to also be a progressive outcome, which basically means there will be a meter. This meter will measure your relationship with the LIs based on the options you've chosen, and provide different content. This "content" includes sex scenes, backstory, additional interactions, and maybe more. So, make sure you choose wisely! Additionally, the meter will reach zero. At this stage, the LI will only treat you as someone they know. Yup, not even a friend.
Oh! And what if I make the meter drop below zero? At this point, LIs will interact with the player in a bad manner. Though, this will not affect the outcome of the story. Just a fun thing to consider.
Alright, there's the week update. Thanks again for my patrons and all my supporters. If there's anything you'd like to add to my discussion, feel free to do so. Suggestions are always welcome. Anyway, I'll see you again next week. Catch!
