For sure! My main idea with the potions would be that it increases appetite and also boosts calorie absorption. I was thinking that you use them at the beginning of each weight stage for each character. Also I like the idea that if you make extras you shill them as a general health sort of tincture that is good for people meanwhile the MC is just selling them off to fatten more people up. I hope I explained that well enough here, but it will be made very clear in the game. Awesome suggestion though and I do appreciate it. I’ve been really trying to make this as clear and smoothed out before I get to coding it so I won’t have to clean a bunch of stuff up after the fact.
Or the feeder could be your average, but kind - hearted, or the other - heroic young man who is thin/average built and has no intent to become a lardpile and not forcing to put on weight to the other characters traveling with him, or the other stuff, the deeds to ‘em.
But yeah, if the character is a dud just gotta write him a dud’s lil’ story and also make him a companion that makes players feel that: ‘Yeah, that dude is cool. He kept the party cool and workin’ til’ the end.’
Also, the story does not have to be erotic, right? In the end, you decide what is the end - product, of course. You are da boss, a dev. I just gave my idea. And you can say ‘no’ to that anytime what i think of. Simple as.
Cheers
Just don’t want hate, it’s all.
Thanks for the comment my guy! I haven’t really been thinking of adding a male character to the game, but I will think of it as a possibility later down the road. As I’ve said, the MC is gonna be fattening up the characters in secret but it’ll be a thing that becomes obvious to the other characters (some will be more ignorant to that because I like that sort of contrast) so she’s gonna be the feeder at the start, but she will be plumping up too so I’ve been thinking of who will do the feeding once everyone is too large to do stuff for themselves.
As for the tone of the story, I will be taking it in an erotic direction. I started dabbling with making games because I kinda got tired of playing the same four or five games and thought I’d take a stab at making something more up my own alley too. No hard feelings at all either. That’s why I made this a Game Design Discussion thread, because I had a good general idea of what I wanted to do but wanted community feedback to fine tune it and get suggestions like this. Of course I have final say, but I really do like hearing feedback and getting a feel for what works for other people and what doesn’t. Also having other sets of eyes looking at what I have and giving suggestions lets me get new ideas that might not have crossed my mind.
So again I’m sorry for the long winded reply but I really do thank everyone helping me out on this!
And if you create that one dude, that one man, in your story - given that you have decided to take the erotic direction, he may as well be romancABLE, too. (MC is female, I see. A beautiful one too, if I must add) BUT nothing should be forced (the romance), simple as. Let the player decide.
Plus, it is always good to see a bit of difference every now and then - if there are mostly or even all characters female, but then, there is an oddity - a male char . A ‘diversity’, if i say so myself.
And yeah, maybe when the time has come, he takes on the feeder role(well, because poor MC and others have already done so much as they could). And maybe, I, as a player really like this character. That one oddity in the party. Maybe main character could just choose that one man in the party, to be her soulmate.
But yeah, being a simple man myself in real life, just have joined with that website recently, I thought to myself I might as well just spell my idea or two out.
BUT, I do not wanna have ANY hate. Just thoughts, that is all.
And long replies are good in my books. I am interested in that how the project goes, right?
Ok, cheers
so many jobs wish you best
Thanks! I know it’s a lot for a solo to take on but it’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a while. And as I said before I have no set in stone date but if you keep up with this thread then you’ll see all the progress updates I post.
I think you can make it, given the seeming enthusiasm of yours. Like the whole saying goes: ‘‘Rome was not built in one day’’. Creating a game is a hard road and all.
Keep it up!
