Edit: Game is out

For those curious about my next game, and others who might find the idea interesting, here is what I can tell and show you right now.

The game will be made in HTML/SugarCube and it will be a mystery detective game with some very adult themes concerning sex and religion. Think of a mix of (but with nuns instead of monks) and films to get the general idea.

You will play as a priest, sent to a convent of nuns to investigate a series of mysterious incidents, involving nightly attacks on the nuns when they sleep. The nuns believe a supernatural entity they call "The Crone" is behind the attacks. The Crone is an old, crooked nun that has been spotted in the hallways at night.

The monastery is divided in half by a wall. This is because the nuns share the monastery with an order of monks. The two groups live on each side of the wall to ensure that they will never meet or see each other. Out of sight, out of mind. This is to ensure that they all remain celibate. During your investigation, you will spend most of your time in the monastery and can freely travel between the monks and the nuns through the only available passage: a locked door which you are granted the key to.

Note: The attached images are from early work in progress. (Updated Nov 25 2021)

11.png In the beginning of the game, you will be a celibate priest, free of sin. As implied by the stats seen to the left in the first image, things will "happen" during your stay in the monastery that may send you down a path of sin and corruption.

22.png In image two, you have just arrived to the monastery and look at a young girl studying outside the school for young women. Although you may occasionally visit the school, the main part of the game will take place inside the monastery.

33.gif This gif is an example of what you might see if you happen to peek into the nuns' communal bathroom... when they are NOT bathing. :D

44.png Showing one of the choices you will get where you can raise trust or authority with the nuns.

55.png In this image, you have a bird's view of the interior of the nuns' part of the monastery.

That's about all I can reveal right now as I'm still months away from an official first release.

Intriguing idea, most developers would make this just a perv romp. But with the writing you did on Paradise Found (have to admit I have yet to start the final update kinda don't want it end;)) this could be again something quit special.

Looking forward to it and again Kudos for Paradise Found.

Edit. Really like how the last screenshot fits the theme of the mystery/dectective as it has a nice boardgame feel to it.

Good, that's how I feel too but I wasn't sure how others would see it. The image will be improved later but it might end up looking close to that.

night_layout.jpg This is the image I currently use for evening/night. I like the charcoal look and I might try to do something similar for the daytime one, or a mix between them.

Indeed I also like the charcoal look. Plus I like how it matches(at least in IMHO) a monastery feel/look. Plus I like this background better than the one in the OP.

Have you played Paradise found? I guess you haven't because there were no such thing(oh well, but very little and it wasn't the faces just different time periods of a porn stars career) in that.

Hi GRasputin , do you plan to include incest content in this game?
Thanks in advance
No, that wouldn't fit with the story and the character as the mc is a celibate, catholic priest with no children who does the investigation a long way from home. I guess someone could get around it reasonably by a mod where for instance one of the young women at the school happens to be related to the mc, the result of a sin early in his life, but that might break with the story in parts as I'm not taking any such story deviations into consideration. To make it clear, this won't be a "landlady" game.
