Sex City RPG

[StalloneCodone]

It seems you've stumbled upon my game, Sex City RPG! My names Stallone Codone, and I'm currently this games creator. I'm brand new to the whole coding thing, so if my skills are lacking, please let me know in the least rude way. Constructive criticism is greatly appreciated, things like "It sucks" wont help me at all. Please feel free to give me some feedback! The game is still in development, so expect bugs, filler content, etc. However, my goal is to create a fun, funny, sex filled, role playing game that people can enjoy and that I'm proud of!

Did you make the sprites yourself, or are these borrowed? (I'm a big fan of pixel-art, so I'll be all over this if that's your style.)
Of course, mechanically, this is entirely lacking. It does show that you can learn to code, so that's good.

Do you have any particular ambitions for this yourself? There's a lot of "whore out and get cash" games here as-is. Many brothels and whatnot.
You're calling it an RPG, what sort of RPG are you ultimately hoping to have?


As for sexual content, I suggest throwing in some bestiality and virginity stuff. Those are great, and there's not enough of it around here.

Hello there,

you are new to coding and I haven't commented on other projects yet, so we have something in common.

Okay, the characters are cute. I guess animations will follow, therefore the love-making will look cute, too. I like that.

It happens to be that you know the basic way of coding. Is it fun for you?
If yes do practice some advanced techniques.

What do you want to do with the background? Are these red rectangle supposed to be houses, shops
or rooms in the future? I think you already have something planned what that supposed to be.

Me personally first tried to walk with WASD. I'm sure you can implement that too, if you like
to. Actually I hit all the common buttons on the keyboard, tried to klick on certain spots with the mouse, till
I finally found out its the arrow keys. Can you make something visible when starting
the game giving a small hint which keys to press when walk the first time?

In the game it says after hooking up with the girl "(...), you gained a level in your sex skills."
But below stands: Skills- sex
Is that intentionally? Does that mean you can later get other skills, too?

Like (don't take the skills I add for serious):

Skills- Sex
- Cook
- Wash
- Walk

Overall I'd like to hear what your ideas were for this game, since I don't believe you haven't thought of any at all.
And as my previous commenter postet, I also want to know what kind of RPG you gona do.

Best wishes.

If you are using characters like this, you will need to make the game very fun or very funny because they aren't very sexy. It is possible to make pixely rpg characters that look good instead of silly. Here's one of mine from Fortress of Fantasm:

Chrono Trigger and Seiken Densetsu III were pretty good at this as well. RPGMaker 2003, Shining Force, Phantasy Star, Pokemon had some decent sprites. Heck, even Final Fantasy Legends/Saga had some rockin' bods.

"RPG" suggests to me that there's going to be more stuff going on. Places to explore. Items to collect. Characters to meet. Things to fight. There's a million directions you could go with this. Some element of adventure or fantasy would be nice since "realistic" porn gets repetitive. Your layout actually reminds me of River City Ransom, an old beat 'em up game with RPG elements. I've mentioned somewhere before that a hentai RCR style game would be really cool, but also a bitch to make.

If you're using sprites, a blit engine might be more convenient. It depends on how you like to do your programming. I love blitting. Flash's display objects confuse me.

I'm new as a member, although I'm a fan of the site. I would have to say you're headed for a good idea. Although, I'm not a fan of playing as a male character in these games, but that's merely my preference. You have a good start, and may I suggest adding a little more character to the people? For example, make the conversations more realistic. I don't know how to do coding myself so I'm not here to tell you how to do things, just suggesting my opinion on the conversational experience for the players. Good job so far, and I wish you luck.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm hoping to incorporate various rpg aspects, but I'm thinking about money, levels, maybe fighting, etc. I'm a person that lives in the moment, thus my foresight is a bit lacking, so I'm not sure where this game will be in the next few weeks. I'll take those suggestions and note them down, to make sure I try and add it!

Also, the art style is inspired off an old game I played, but I've remade the characters, I already have a few animations ready for others, just figuring out the easiest ways to incorporate it.

Yeah, I've done some pretty basic coding, and I love it right now. However, all I've done is master Java, and started learning JS.

As for the background, that WILL be changed into various housing, shops, etc. That's merely a placeholder for now.

As for the keys, I'll try and make both WASD and arrow keys do the same actions. I'll also add in a hint for keys aswell.

Yes, as for skills I'm hoping to make this into an RPG game with other skills, I'll have to think some up when I'm not working.

As for ideas, I'm still typing down some of y'alls suggestions, but I just want there to be things to get and look at, just as any regular RPG I suppose. My main goal is to have a story, which I've seen little of here.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, I hope I'm funny enough to make things... well, funny. And if it's dumb I'm sure you all would tell me, and I could change it quickly. And yes, I do agree, its kind of hard to see pixels as really sexy, but hopefully, as you said, I can compensate in other ways.

I had drawn up a scene between the one girl in the game and the main character, I'll attach it to the post.

And yes, that's basically what I'm trying to do, 'open' world with characters to love on, fight etc, basically just like an rpg! I also do agree that it will be difficult to make, but I should do well on the art side of things.

Thanks for the feedback! As for gender swaps, that will be later in the lifespan of the game, as that's going to be a lot of coding and more learning for me. And yes, right now the game's in a placeholder state so the conversing is extremely limited as of right now. Hopefully the game turns out well, and people like it!

Actually, is there any reason you want to do pixely graphics? It seems to me that barely anything is in place, so you could change things if you want. Some people try to hide behind pixel graphics if they feel like their drawing abilities aren't very good. But if you're making a porn game, I think a bad drawing can be better than good pixels, because softness and curviness are important to giving things a sexy feeling and it's really hard to do that with pixels. Not impossible, but hard.

You don't have to draw like Tony Taka to make it work (1, 2, 3)

One of the biggest reasons why I chose pixel art is because it's easy. It would allow me to make content much easier, and as well as create more comfort towards my vision on the game, I can do pixel art with some reasonable skill, but my regular drawing is bad. Also I would be spending more time drawing, I have low patience and little time, between working and schooling. One of the things I'm also trying to do is make it fun, funny, and or enjoyable to play. In other words, not JUST based upon sex. If I do decide to make more games, I will defiantly take this to consideration.

I think a bad drawing can be better than good pixels

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

In all honesty though, I love pixel art porn, particularly if it's good. Check out the work done by blargsnarf or just check out Soo Cubus here on the forums.
I'd prefer this over bad drawings anytime.

..Not that I have that much confidence in Sex City, but I definitely believe good pixel art has much more merit than you suggest.

I have made quite a bit of pixel art in my day, and I have grown pretty sick of it. It doesn't look "good", it just looks artsy, and that can be fun for a while, but it doesn't pack the same punch as when a real artist enters the room. Hiding behind pixels held me back as an artist and if I could send a message back in time to 2005 Ace the Super Villain, I would have told him not to bother, learn to draw for real or go all in on 3D.

[IxFa]

I wish I had the art skill to even reach pixels.
I'm awful at art, and pixels I fair no better with.

To me, it's not a lesser form of art than any other. Some pixel artists are better than others, and from what I can tell there are many artists that just can't do pixel art well.
Take a look at indie games if you want proof of that.

I don't think it's a case of "hiding behind" pixels.
But you have your opinions. I don't see eye-to-eye, but I believe I understand your view at least somewhat.

I guess I would prefer to see you make something that is "you" rather than use the same splatformer characters we've all seen a million times. But if you just mean that style, yes, I'd rather see a sexy vector armature animation than goofy little pixels. (Although, in the grand scheme of things, vector armatures are not my favorite thing in the world either) If you desire compromise, the new Brothel Sim game and Breeding Season use pixel-based armature animation. A lot of fans didn't like the new Brothel Sim characters as much as the old splatformer graphics, mainly because they are creepy young looking, but I think Breeding Season's new graphics were well received.

Depending on how tech savvy or artistic you plan to be, allow me to suggest using 3D graphics. It is "possible" to use actual 3D graphics in Flash, but most likely you would pre-render something and use it as a spritesheet or a cutscene avi in game. There are zillions of 3D resources you can quickly download and incorporate into your game. Here are the first 3 results from a google search: 1 2 3 I am a student of 3D animation, so I don't find 3D particularly intimidating, but I know some people do, if this is an idea that interests you, I can help you learn what to do, point you to some tutorials and such. I like 3D, I'd love to see more 3D used for porn.

Arent these the spirtes from the IOS game tiny tower?

Arent these the spirtes from the IOS game tiny tower?

Basically, I tried to do them as close as possible

That's what was inspired for the current characters, however those too are subject to change.
