Hey all!

I'm currently working on a text-based game on Twine set in a world of superheroes, villains, big monsters and more!

While you don't exactly start off as a superhero, you can either aim to be one, or just live your life as a civilian.

Things are set up in a way that you can craft your own hero origin in this story, like taking field trips, going on excursions, and whatnot.

Or you could use your powers for evil.

And yes, there will be quite a bit of the sex here. Not too many extreme kinks, but it will be present.

So far the origins I've had so far are:

Magical Girl Contract
Mecha Pilot
Turned into Monster
Acquire Powers from Artifact or Blessing (various places, from the Jungle to the Forest to Atlantis to... a lot of places really...)

Planned Accessible Places:

Main City
Ocean
Atlantis
Countryside
Forest
Jungle
Sky Kingdom
Kaiju Island (Has to be in a later build)
Hero School (Has to be in a later build)
Space (Has to be in a later build)

~~~

I was thinking you all could share your opinions on what could be in this, what I could add and all that. Alongside more powers, and how these powers can be obtained, as well as gaguing interest.

The first playable version is intended to have:

Places:
Town
  • Your House
  • Streets
  • Gym
  • Mall
  • Magician's Shop
  • Mecha Hangar
Forest
  • Witch's Den
Beach
Ocean
Atlantis
  • Nereid Queen's Palace

Features:
3 Potential Sidekicks
Magical Girl Path
Anti-Kaiju Weaponized Mecha Path
Magic User Path
A lot of horny sex

Some things:

1. Planning to set a dev thread up complete with a link to a Discord I previously made to shill my other potential games.

2. The more I work on this, the more it seems less traditionally/typically superhero and seems more like that other kind of genre where people have powers but don't really wear costumes or whatnot. (Though some of the former might still exist in this setting) Ah well, it is what it is, and what I have is still within my vision actually.

3. Another issue that I'm unsure if I need to fix or if I should just accept my limitations and justify it as "my game my stuff" - The female love interest to male love interest ratio is kinda... well, it's higher. Right now it's 4 to 2. I have a really difficult time coming up with male love interests to balance the numbers out and am currently considering simply accepting my limitations and running with it.

A word of advice, OP: don't chase other people's opinions. Make the game YOU wanna play.

Otherwise you'll get bored and/or frustrated when shit hits the fan and you have to grind thru the not-so-fun stuff (like bugfixing).
