Just Starting.

sounds very good but i know i've heard this before from somewhere.

after lurking through the forums....
shit...too late for me now

[Olivia]

I'm pretty serious about making this game guys. Anyone who wants to help can, . I was thinking about the main character. I'm thinking red head, green eyes, fairly busty. Opinions or ideas?

LIES!!! You'll never have 10 post. Why? Because you have 11 now!

[Olivia]

Hurrah! 10 POSTS!

Praise be the moderators, from the hood of post approval Olivia has emerged, spirit free to create and destroy worlds anew.

Now, In this game i'm planning on having two classes of monsters. Attackers, and Lures. Both kinds will be fuckable, but they will behave differently. Attackers will deal a certain amount of damage to you before they try to fuck you. The lures on the other hand, will just look really hot, or fun to have sex with. They won't chase you or damage you, instead they will just look tempting, and you can have sex with them whenever you want, at the risk of increasing your infection level.

What kind of game are you thinking here?

Is it a side scrolling game - it does seem like an action game idea; if you look at Sakyubasu - another project in development - that would not be a bad format for inspiration at least.

I have to admit to a preference for more story / game and not all sex all the time; it gets repetitive. YOu mention fleeing from a nightclub.

Apparently combat is an aspect. Who is this woman and why is she able to fight these things when that obviously can't be that easy?
- Naturalist hunter / archer / game warden?
- Cop with gun / batons / taser? (Personally I like chicks with uniforms).
- Ex soldier (afghanistan vet? Reservist? Home guard?)
- Professional athlete (boxing / martial arts / biathlon)
- Nordic biathlon (ski shooting)

Also, why are the aliens turning everyone and everything into fuck machines? "Because we can!"?, need hosts to repopulate their world, want to harvest endorphines for the interstellar black market? (If so, is there another 'alien cop' there that tries to fix things?). THe latter idea - endorphins - may work. The worms may be the infectors AND carry the harvested endorphins back. That would explain it if the invaders were not that lethal - they'd rather have... eh.. repeat donators than corpses.

Back to our protagonist. Should the story be set in stages? For instance:
1: Get from the nightclub to the car, and try to get out of town.
2: Realize the car is full of worms, flee the car upon discovery or try to get further (with predictable result)
3: Resume trek out of the city. Run into aliens. Seek refuge in a shopping mall. (horror game style phase)
4: Find equipment in the mall, escape it only to run into boss monster 1.
5: Set aim for either a mountain cottage, a military base/bunker, survivalist bunker, rural police station (depending on origin).
6: Eventually get there to find out it was/was not so safe after all.

That's just thinking aloud. Now, for the gameplay.
You mention infection. The problem is basically, that some will play the game to see the sex scenes, and since they are the result of loosing, they will 'play to loose', rather than play to win. In fact, it is safe to assume that 'some' in this case is nearly all. A certain amount of loosing is to be expected. An infection level that goes down over time, but if it goes too high becomes 'bad end' style game over will work. A system where you get 'xp' for killing enemies and infection for loosing, but where xp can be used to increase traits while infection can be used to buy mutations might be interesting - you get rewards for either behaviour, but make xp somewhat more useful (or each mutation carries with it a downside) to keep winning as an advantage.

Well, just a few thoughts. Good luck!

[Olivia]

My plan is not to have sex scenes as a result of loosing. Some creatures will just charge you in an attempt to have sex. If you get caught by one, you will see the sex scene, your infection level will go up, but you will not take damage. Some creatures will only deal damage, some creatures will only have sex, and some creatures will have 'phases' and switch between the two. As for game style, defiantly side scroller, but I want multiple heights, adding a platforming aspect. The aliens will be infecting humans, to make the population docile or scattered, so their main fleet can invade unhindered.

Will you be able to climb/push certain objects?Like say you're in a store and need to get into the pharmacy,but it is blocked and you notice a hole in the celing to possibly crawl through,there could be a ladder near by to push or just climb one of the shelf.Could also be used to escape danger if low on health.

So far it sounds great especially the lures.

Now, I am looking for help in the sprite department. My artistic skills for people aren't great, I'm much better at creatures though. Here's my ability of human art. I know its not great.

Check this site:

There's a 30 day trial, there's also free alternatives like http://www.daz3d.com/

They're great tools for creating character models. The problem will be getting them consistent with the rest of the art; best perhaps to use them for reference instead of actually using the imported models. On the upside, working with this will be useful practice if you get into 'real' graphical artwork.

Why nobody wants to make a 3D game with this kind of play?

I am at a loss why not try to use say Source SDK and Left 4 Dead or Half-Life 2 engine -- to me it seems easier to change existing models and animations, add sounds, and add some scripts and custom events than do everything from scratch including drawing the animation and game engine coding.

I am surprised that such endeavor still didn't happen given that nude mods for said game exist and that the models are rigged.

The problem with 3D models is it's all too common to end up making them look like lifeless underdeveloped dolls. Just that simple.

....as soon as you actually take up on people's offer to help you out, have a time where you have a meeting with the people interested to talk about/plan out the game, and post some mock-ups/game design plan then we'll see if this game is a serious endeavor

otherwise, try making the game yourself
