Indecisions (that's seriously the title)

  1. Had to unfortunately scrap my original game idea (I'll still keep the stuff for it at the bottom of this post unless that seems to be too cumbersome) Instead, I working on a visual novel style game (it's turning somewhat like a choose your own adventure story) Considering there's not really a lot of time left in the contest, a majority of this probably is going to stay how it is (unless there's something seriously wrong)

    A VN with multiple endings (or will have, once I'm done) and no romance. (this will probably turn out to be relatively short and won't particularly make much sense story-wise, but that's what happens when you have about a week or so) 

    Story

    Spoiler
    You have control over a character named Sam (or whatever you named the character) who doesn't remember much of their past or why they woke up in this strange place. Will your choices lead to memories (and possibly a way out) or leave you trapped?
    Character

    Spoiler
    Sam

    The character you control; you get to choose their gender and name at the start of the game (though the default is Sam just to have something)

    (That' not everything in graphics; I'll probably have to shift through all that I use to make absolutely sure I don't miss crediting somebody)

    I'll put together the credits for music after the game is done (I'm not sure what I'm going to use yet, so it's better to just leave it)

    The game I tried to make first:

    Spoiler
    Banner.png

    An adventure game with slight RPG elements. The story was inspired by some indie horror games I've been playing as well as the original versions of the Grimm's fairy tales, but I hope to be able to leave more darker themes out.

    ~Story~

    In a strange house not quite anywhere Marta lives with her "family", though she knows quite well they're not actually. When an actual family arrives at the house due to a car crash, her so called "siblings" start causing trouble. It's up to her and the unfortunate family's son, Mark, to try to stop them... or give into their deranged demands.
    ~Characters~

    Mark

    A somewhat shy young man who was supposed to be going on vacation with his parents. Instead, he finds himself stuck with the choice of either helping Marta with her problem or being held forever in the strange house belonging to her "family".

    Marta

    An extremely stir-crazy young girl who just want to get away from her supposed family, but just what is she willing to do to achieve that goal?

    I promise to have this done (and sorry about canceling my first entry; though it was more for health reasons, so it was either make something else or completely drop out...)
  2. I find myself intrigued. Who are Marta's siblings? And why do they want her and mark?

    Good luck with this, I'll definitely check it out when its done.
  3. Uploaded a few more screenshots plus changed out the ones already there to reflect the font change (I prefer these fonts to the ones I was using)  Also, changed the overarching goals. (just wanted to update with that if anyone cares)

    Edit: Changed out the logo at the top for a more banner-style one; I might fiddle around with that some more if I get bored, but I think that turned out pretty well.
  4. Changed the text in the items menu to reflex the change since I'm removing the battle system (though I'll probably keep a copy of the game with the scripts and graphics for it; maybe I'll come back after the contest and do something with them)

    I'll probably also be changing the amount and types of items around over the next few days...
  5. Okay, just a quick update on how things are going:

    I'm currently working on balancing what requirements are necessary to achieve (at least two) different endings. I hope to keep them both just slightly ambiguous, though if I have enough time before the game is completely finished, I might add in a third definite bad ending (if I don't it'll be added in later among with some other possible stuff)

    There's a lot of eventing (mostly just been working on the cutscenes, but now I hope to actually get around to connecting them all so it's actually playable)

    Also since I got rid of the battle system there's not exactly a use for these anymore:

    Spoiler
    Marta%20without%20bow.pngMarta.pngMark.png
     Unless anyone has any suggestions for their use.

    I hope to finish with at least enough time for bug testing before the submission date (though I'm still on the fence about submitting) 
  6. Edited the topic to fit the new game I'm making (and with that it's back to work on the game itself)
