Hello everyone!
TL;DR: Should I release half of each chapter (quicker) or the entire chapter (slower)?; No stats for good, bad, or morality of your character, will be affection, domination, and submission stats for the girls; Choices are very very important and will affect your playthroughs greatly; I'll change the name again (maybe) LOL; There will be one overarching job and mini jobs within each chapter; Also added more porn LOL. Currenting building the prologue chapter.
I'm not sure if this is where I should post status updates, but I'll just do this for now! Hopefully it doesn't get lost in the swarm!
I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind advice and critiques. Like I said, this is the first game I've ever made, so I appreciate all the comments and likes! It motivates me to keep moving forward. I just wanted to make this post to address a few questions and comments.
RELEASES: I am currently writing and creating the Prologue Build for the game, which is just the further introduction of the world, characters, choices, and consequences of your choices. However, I do want to ask if you guys want releases of full chapters or half of each chapter? Half of each chapter will be quicker but of course will have less as opposed to full chapter releases. I'm almost halfway done with the Prologue build, so I'll be making a poll asking what y'all want.
STATS: People were asking about morality and other stats. I don't want to spoil too much or sound like a pretentious douchebag, but a major theme in this game is the concept of grey morality. No choices in this game are considered black or white, they just are choices with consequences, so there won't be stats representing how evil or good your character is. It's up to you to make that decision. However, there will be stats regarding the relationships you have with other characters, especially the girl characters. The three major ones are submission, domination, and affection: how submissive you are to them, how dominating you are over them, and how affectionate you are over them. These WILL have numbers related to them. But do know that your relationship with one girl may have an affect on other girls.
CHOICES: I put a major emphasis on choices in this game. Every, and I mean every, choice you make will have a consequence, big or small. I worry about making a walkthrough this early for choices since I don't want to spoil too much. Anyways, choices are important! You can see the choices you make on the UI bar and choices specific to characters too. Also, just a hint - a choice you made in the early tutorial build will have a BIG effect on the first chapter of the game.
THE NAME: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. error is about as bad as .exe. Don't worry, I'll be changing it. Someone in the comments (I'll shout them out later) said a really good name that I will be adopting. But I promise the name will change LOLOL.
JOBS: To answer someone's questions, there will be an overarching job within each chapter and smaller jobs you can do throughout the game. However, the game is very linear - I find open world HTML games to be clicking simulators and very boring if there's not much to do. There won't be much freedom with the jobs you want to pick, but the choices you make will have an effect on which of, say, 3 jobs you'll be able to take or do. Most of the hacking jobs will take the form of INCUBUS, but with slight variations based on the story.
And for the people who just want to jack off - don't worry, I've added more porn to the next version LOLOL don't worry, you'll get your fill.
Thank you everyone again and I hope you have a great day.
