Work in progress #22

Hi!

It’s time to tell the news about the game and share thoughts about the future!

Work is going well. A lot has already been done, but also a lot more to do.

In the second episode, I want to use slightly different gameplay. The engine was initially written as some semblance of a sandbox. The first episode was linear, so the rework was linear too, but with some freedom of choice. In a linear plot, choices produce an infinite number of branches. Developing of the whole variety of branches is simply impossible.

It was decided to make the second episode with a number of storylines.

The storylines will be different. And if you like some events, but do not like others, then you can play only those storylines that interest you. Each of the main storylines will have its own final of the game. Where will Monika eventually come…

One more parameter will be added – “corruption”. If you wish you can play only certain storylines and complete the game without hard hot and humiliation scenes (Monica would be very grateful to you ^_^ ), but if you wish to make progress in such lines, you need to increase “corruption”. Bitchiness will also mean 🙂

Monica will wake up in the morning, and she will have a choice what to do next.

She needs to get food somehow. She needs to eat every day, or almost every 🙂

Monica can just steal food at the gas station, or she can make money on it.

This will be the beginning of the fall storyline.

The fall storyline

The fall storyline will start with the fact that Monica will have to work in poor neighborhoods and communicate with many people. Monica needs nothing more from these people but to do her job. But you understand that some people want a few more…  🙂

How Monica reacts and where this path can lead her depends on you 🙂

This story will later give the start to other storylines…

Betty and Bardie

Monica needs to live in a house, which means she has duties. If she wants Betty to be kind to her, she will have to clean the house every day.

In the house, two storylines start at once.

The Betty line and the Bardie line. These stories will cross, but this is one of the most humiliating ways for Monica.

These stories will also give a start to other storylines in which you will meet many familiar characters.

The office storyline

After all, Monica can borrow money from a secretary in the office.

This is the office storyline. Monica will meet new boss Beef and also Melanie, Alex, Dick, Victoria, etc…

These storylines will be started from v0.1.

In the near future they will be continued and also new ones will be added.

For example:

Marcus storyline.

Steve storyline.

The neighbour storyline.

Perry storyline

and many others.

The ultimate goal of the game is to return the former life. What kind of life it will depend on which path Monika takes. It’s quite possible that this is far from the life that she would like at the beginning. But who knows what she will be by then 🙂

As you see, it will be a significant and exciting game. Of course, only the beginning will be implemented in v0.1, but there will already be something to play.

I planned to release v0.1 at the end of this month. I don’t have confidence that I will have time to do it. But I promise I will try.

Launching a new episode is hard work for me, but further updates will go faster.

I hope you stay with me. Only thanks to you this game develops and sees the light!
