RPGM The Queen's Game [v0.1b] [QueenMao]

[LexiTV]

This should probably be tagged as abandoned

I half agree, half disagree. There is progress being made. Join the Patreon if you want to know more.

The art is gorgeous, but this felt like a cheap cash grab. No Enthusiasm, and the dev has never played similar games himself, which is why this game is so awkward. After this game didn't get the wanted attention, I felt the devs' motivation disappear into nothingness. The releases slowed down... a LOT. This game has h-elements, but they are not tied to battles. They feel like cheap, simple rewards not tied to gameplay. Still, there are so many people left paying. These Patreon tiers are also the most vile, scammiest I have seen in a long time. Clearly, this is a cash-grab focused game.

This is a weird game.

Some aspects are godlike and others trash-tier level.

Really weird game. I just hope the dev improves and maybe makes his Patreon membership a little more affordable. I'm considering supporting the game after the next release.

Working on a new character and wanted to get a bit of feedback from folks before finalizing her design. It's an Egyptian inspired kind of character, and I've been working on a few vibes/styles

Any input would be appreciated

Any of the skin tones, but I like the 3rd outfit to the right most.

Any time I do character concept, I get too invested in background things, so I'm like "What's life in egypt like? They wear clothes that cover their skin for reason. Can I make sexy clothes that hugs the body but covers the skin? They'd probably be pale for that, with heavy tan lines. Those tan lines would be uggo, though. Maybe royalty gets a special salve (sunscreen) so less clothes is a sign of nobility"

Nope, game's not abandoned! I pretty routinely put out art, animations, and gameplay changes on Patreon. I'm very active on discord, and I even make sure to check in on here from time to time. Please understand that I, and the dev that's working with me, both have jobs and we cannot work on this game full time, though we do try our best to put out content as quickly as we can.

I'm incredibly grateful for the support I get on Patreon, both in terms of free and paid members, but to be perfectly transparent, if this was a cash grab I wouldn't rewrite anything, or even make a game; I'd be better off driving an uber on the weekends where I'd make twice as much, and spend half the time doing it. I'm doing this because I am passionate about femdom and game making, and want to create, but I have to pay people to do things I cannot.

I will say yes the game absolutely slowed down because it did not get the response that I was hoping for. A lot of people disliked the way that I implemented certain elements such as the videos and the combat. If people liked everything I did, I would have just continued developing as normal, but since people didn't like them, I went back to revise everything. The videos were replaced with animation frames more similar to what you find in Tower of Trample, and my combat was changed more towards a bravely default system instead of the combat I tried to implement. People did not like the dialog that I wrote for a more comedic main character, so I completely rewrote the script with more options so that character can be more of a straight man rather than cracking jokes all the time. The rowing mini game has been completely changed and implements elements of hentai. Some elements of the game remain as I wrote/designed them. I did play other H-games, and I broadly kept that in most of my game's fights, it's not H-scenes, they're post battle rewards.

I have not posted much publicly about it yet or put it out for free because my goal is that when everything is fully completed for the Act 1 portion, I will put it out as the re-release for free, with the updated combat, reworked mini game, and new animations. I'm hoping that people enjoy it.

Definitely a personal preference thing but I would love a combination of the middle and the right design.
The right most bikini style on the middle design would be perfect.
As for skin tone, leaning towards Fd2.

What type of personality/fetishes/weapon of choice would she have?

Glad to hear about rework from feedback, can't wait to see what is cooked up

Personality wise, she's very self-indulgent. She never thinks of restraining herself, her life philosophy is "I want it, therefore, I get it!".

I actually haven't thought too much of fetishes, but one image that always stuck with me was a painting I loved, Cleopatra testing poisons on condemned prisoners



It always struck me as a very powerful theme, and made me think about implementing something like that, maybe not this specifically, but the broad strokes of the idea at the least.

In terms of combat style, when you partner with her, you'll do huge amounts of damage, but you'll also be hitting your allies as well when you fight. Being careful with your resources and ensuring your action economy isn't destroyed will be key to making her effective.

There's definitely a lot that goes into it, where you can compare say, the native Egyptian dynasties versus the Nubian conquest dynasties and then the later Greek dynasty; The Egyptians were probably closer to skin tone in the second pic, the Nubians the third, and the Greeks the first. I'm looking at doing a little bit more with the headdress because I found an inspiration from a historic Egyptian outfit that I loved, and am going to play a bit more around with designing the outfit around that, along with implementing some femdom elements that make sense for the role she'd play

Too much text to quote. Always pursue your passion. I can't say that will always (or even usually) result in patreon/financial success, but I'm sure you already know about that.

At the very least I hope the reception you got on it makes sense to you, and the concessions and rewrites are something you agree should have been done differently. Everyone here talks about things, setting high bars, but meanwhile DanGames is cranking out slop like it's newgrounds Meet N Fuck.

Almost sounds like there should be some executioner/prison warden type character. Gotta be careful to keep her pleased or risk losing your head.

I do hope that some of the newer stuff has been player tested to help prevent what happened the first time around.
Major overhaul like this can introduce a whole world of bugs and getting feedback on new changes early helps a ton.
