Oh hey, I actually did a whole play-by-play over on Discord where I showed this. So, I'll just copy-paste it here.
So, once upon a time I'd planned to do a mini-game called Orc Exchange. The idea was that it'd take place in this medieval fantasy world where the war between orcs and humans had been settled for a couple decades, and relations were beginning to normalize, trade was reopening, etc. As a result, cultural exchange programs were instituted, which would see select households in the human kingdom assigned an orcish guest, and vice versa -- the player being the head of one such household. The idea was that you'd basically be able to guide your relationship with the orc girl along two routes. In one, you'd be an encouraging and gracious host, and love would blossom, making you an example to the two peoples of what can happen if the old grudges are put aside. In the other, it would go less well, and the kingdom would return to war.
But, it eventually became a show that Guy and Nicki watch together, as a little nod to my former plans. And like I said, now I've written
something that touches on a lot of the same themes, so it all just seems less pressing. Maybe one day! I originally envisioned it as an RPG Maker game, without all the annoying grind. There's still a part of me that'd like to attempt that, but we'll see.
