Since I had the day off today, I was playing the Last Spell. It is pretty fun, though a lot of people complain that it is kind of hard, or that you have to die a lot to unlock stuff. Though the point of the game is to die a lot to unlock stuff. If you unlocked everything at the start and won on your first try, you probably wouldn’t play it again. Anyway, I was enjoying it.
Well I was feeling motivated this morning so I got the update ready! So it isn’t a huge update as far as forward progress, but is is branch heavy with a lot of different options on how to handle things. Though there are mainly two outcomes, either you end up pregnant with the spirit/gods baby, or you don’t. Though how you do that varies a little, including one possibility for you to grow a cock and get someone else pregnant.
I decided to go this way with the story, since then I can focus on the pregnancy stuff next update. Ultimately you can end up pregnant from the spirit, your lover, getting raped, or avoid it entirely. The one thing I was wondering though, is should I let you get pregnant if you have the lesbian lover? Maybe through the help of the spirits and magic.
Working a bit late tonight too for the same reasons as yesterday. Tomorrow when I update Old Souls, it will probably be a late night update too. Even though I was trying to get the updates released earlier in the day most of the time, lately I been up later again and getting stuff done later in the day. Hopefully it wont be at like midnight, though maybe it will be, we shall see.
I am normally a late night person, though I been trying to work on the games earlier in the day as I am a bit more productive in the morning. However between it being really hot during the day and some distractions with kids, I been putting the work off until later in the day. I have not even really done anything yet today.
I got really distracted thinking about that scfi story I mentioned the other day. I was still thinking about it, and it made focusing on other stuff a bit harder. I am probably thinking about it a lot because I came up with a lot of really good stuff but there is a couple of problems that make the entire thing unworkable and so I keep trying to figure those things out. I should probably just put it off to the side awhile and not think about it at all, so I can focus on other things and get things done!
On a side note, and this has nothing to do with the scifi story I was thinking of writing, I actually worked on several scifi games before that I never really released, since I didn’t get that far into them. Many with robot transformations, since I think turning into a sexy robot is pretty cool and also you don’t see as many robot stuff as often as other tf related stuff.
It is pretty hot out today, some saying 104, some up to 106. Either way, it is way too hot! Personally I like colder weather than hotter weather. Though I mostly stayed indoors in the air conditioning all day. Still a bit warm inside too though.
So this week I am working on Old Soul again, because I don’t feel I got a lot done last week with it. Also I want to make some progress when it is still fresh in my mind, so I don’t forget everything that was going on again. So last time I set it up with something happen with Aluria, the goddess that had a temple in the city. I am going to set daily goals again, but I am going to be a bit more flexible this week. I am not entirely sure where I want to go with the story so I want to try to work with a schedule that takes that into account.
Tuesday: Do the path dealing with Aluria stuff if you happened to be cursed from the temple.
Wednesday: Set up the main path, in case you didn’t get cursed.
Thursday: Have at least 3 different options for dealing with the Aluria issue on the main path.
Friday: Finish that up and set up pregnancy stuff for future(if the character got pregnant).
Saturday: Finish all that up and release the game.
I don’t know why but I was thinking about writing a scifi book today. Actually I randomly thought about it a earlier this week but wrote some stuff for it today since I was off from my other projects. I had thought of what I thought was a pretty cool setting for a sci fi story, and I thought of a theme I wanted to explore in that setting. That is kind of backwards from how I normally write, since I don’t usually think of a setting then try to make up a story for it, I usually have some kind of plot in mind then make the setting, or do the both at the same time.
Anyway, after I was thinking about it a bit and I couldn’t think of an actual story to put in that setting that would fit the theme. I wanted to do a more political type story without a lot of fighting or anything, and I was having trouble thinking of a main conflict for the story because of that. I was worried it might be kind of a bad setting after all but I was brainstorming today since I was off, and I came up with a good idea, that would fit the setting and the theme I had in mind, for a more political story.
Well I don’t know when I will have time to write a book on a random idea I just had, but it was a lot of fun just doing a bunch of world building for that setting today. It was probably really good writing practice too.
So this week’s update is a bit small. Even though I did the other update for Old Souls a bit ago, I was still a bit rusty with all the stuff I had before, since it had been so long since I had been working the game actively. I had entirely forgot there was a lesbian love interest for example. So some of that work was just getting more familiar with everything again. Also I did get a bit side tracked with my nephew getting off school, which I mentioned the other day and some other stuff. I need to make sure I really focus and get a good schedule next week so I can get a lot done. I might do another update for Old Souls again next week, to jump right into it. Then probably a kawaii or magical girl update. I will work those details out on monday though.
Anyway, this is a short update with you arriving back home. You talk a bit with friends and family and there is a small sex scene if you have a lover. There is also some consequences if you got raped. Then it sets up the next thing that will happen.
So I am thinking of the future of the games I am working on. Currently I am working on old souls, kawaii and magical girls. Kawaii is getting closer to being finished, or at least the main game is getting closed to finished. I did want to go through and add some stuff to flesh out other things. It will probably be mostly relationship and interactions with other characters along the way that I will add in later, since I got most of the location exploration done in the first pass.
Magical girls and Old souls are kind of open ended, where I am not sure how long I want to make them. They are older games I jumped into without as much of a plan on where to go. I suppose for magical girls, getting to the end of a big magical girl contest would be a good place to end the game. Then maybe some girls will graduate and leave the team and it could end around there. Old souls could end when you start a family I suppose. That might work well with me thinking of adding pregnancy stuff in a bit later.
