Quantum Entanglement Demo Release

>>2165992
Oh boy here we go.

Is it convoluted and heavy on locked-off endings/routes like Embric was, or more straight-forward? Gotta prepare for how I wanna play this...

>>2166003
Entirely straightforward.
There are a couple of hazards, so saving frequently is a good idea.

It has some rubix cube elements, but I wouldn't go so far as to call it a puzzle game.

>>2166007
Sounds interesting, I never got much into the multiple routes part of Embric so this'll probably be easier on me at least, haha.
I may only have played 10 minutes but I'm gonna be the best damn janitor this place has ever seen. Or is that "janitor"? Well, either way.

Also I don't wanna bully and you did say there were placeholders but I was fairly amused at the MC looking herself in the mirror. It...stood out compared to the quality portraits/pixel-art/first CG.

>400mb for a rpgmaker demo

w-why

>>2166010
Mostly the music. I'm working on getting that down, but my audiophile tendencies are getting in the way.

>>2166008
My editors strong-armed me out of using janatrix, but I remain unconvinced.
I prefer honesty over placation, in general. I wouldn't be posting a WIP game here if I wasn't a little thick-skinned.

Okay so I'm assuming this is a bug - I went to the cafeteria and had the chat with the room-mate (who quickly leaves) and doctor who was gonna take me to the captain. Doc started a walking cutscene but then after a second of that just teleported to above the MC instead, followed by randomly starting a conversation with the captain - who is nowhere to be seen - at the exit from the cafeteria. Seems like the game kinda wigged out at some 'bring you to captain' cutscene/ftb or something? I wasn't pressing any buttons during the cutscene.

Ayup.
That's what I get for last-minute fixes. For some reason, Raffik's sprite disappeared. I've got him back now, and the scene should proceed as normal, even without that sprite there.
I'm going to do a bit of investigation, then release a simple patch.

>>2166023
His sprite showed up once everyone got moving again so it wasn't all that bad at least!

>>2165992
Welcome back again, Saintbomber onee-sama. We've missed you!

Ah, my first stick-figure CG. It looks marvelous.

Well, it's 2AM so even though I've only just gotten to the spooky incident I'll have to stop for now. Other than the placeholder art it's really nice so far! I'm definitely interested in seeing where it goes. The memory stuff is pretty creepy, just the fact that the treatment seems to be getting prescribed with about the same weight and care as Aspirin or something judging by how it's discussed. Also the girls are cute! Cute!

Just thought I'd link this here >>2166063

Just during the opening credits sequence you can make the "music by" text appear over and over again by walking back and forth

Tried to leave my room during the intro (I'm one of THOSE people) and I have no idea what character is saying this. Doesn't look to be either of the two people in the room.

>>2166070
Well I figured out who the sprite belongs to but I think she's in the wrong clothes in that image

If you save immediately after waking up for the first time, and read the diary entry, it references events that haven't happened yet, like reading the letter.

>>2166066
Along a similar vein, after the tour, if you return to your apartment, the dialogue wondering about Gabby and needing sleep plays over and over again if you leave the apartment and return over and over again

The fuck is with the polish breakfast question?

>>2166096
I just wrote polish sausage but now that I think of it this probably isn't the sausage kind of girl

>>2166100
I wrote tacos out of spite.

also the dumpster you can open in the room right after you get off the train is stupidly loud.

Like pain in my ears loud.

It's a Polish mystery.

>>2166106
I intended that one as a kind of warning for the upper levels of volume, but looking back on it, it kinda comes out of nowhere, so I'll turn it down a couple of notches.
I mainly don't want people caught off guard by the Geovator noise in a later scene.

Thanks to everyone so far for speaking up.

The geovator wasn't too loud from what I've heard of it.

This seems like a bug: after I finished the demo, I went back to my apartment to check for Easter Eggs and maybe see if I could talk Gabby into giving one of the beds a workout, and re-entering the bathroom started this dialogue sequence again. At the end of it I can't move or access the menu. Going to test and see if the problem repeats when I re-enter the bathroom any time after triggering the sequence.

I know this is presumably a story concession to the gameplay since there's nothing behind them, but why after getting the captain's keycard, does Marine only use her own card on the doors in the stairwell (and obviously get denied) when she has his high-clearance card?

105KB, 681x553px

Alright, I finished the demo! I had a lot of fun with it, I like Marine and Gabby's interactions and the mystery/horror elements are quite nice even if they'll definitely be helped by non-placeholder art in a couple places. It was nicely atmospheric, and felt simultaneously expansive and claustrophobic. I didn't find a lot of bugs either, though I included a screenshot of a wonky wall in the toilets - the equivalent wall next to it can't be walked into but this one can.

If I had a 'complaint' it would be that the key-card system seems a bit wonky - I'm glad that Marine automatically uses the correct one if you have it, but it doesn't seem to make much sense that if she DOESN'T have the right one she just tries her own instead of whatever the highest clearance she has in her possession. It's a minor thing but it really threw me a couple times. I also didn't like the server password 'puzzle' at all since it's just pointless. But maybe it's a placeholder for a real one. While all the portraits have good art, I thought the difference in styles between Marine and Larson's portraits when they have their talk stood out, though that's just a small nitpick. Finally, the game doesn't always seem to register progress properly - for example, I was briefly stuck on the portable generator part since I'd forgotten about the one in the physics lab or whatever that room was, and went back to the start to look for new stuff. I went back to the apartment and entered Gabby's room, and Marine spoke up as if yelling for her even though she was in my party already.

Also anon is right, no snu snu? Boo!

I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished product one day! I hope you get some help with the art too, that would really give it an extra feeling of polish. I just hope I didn't miss anything, I did backtracking at a couple points but didn't really get anything new so I don't think I did.

Was just about to post wonky toilet.
Also you can keep interacting with the shower curtain in your room after it's opened and it keeps replaying the opening animation. w o n k y

>>2166349
You can do the same with the crate of comics in your bedroom, "opening" it over and over after it's already open

>>2166349
>>2166351
And yet, Gabby won't open her legs even once!

To be serious for a moment, while I'm glad the game isn't all doom and gloom and there's some levity and flirting between the girls despite the death and generally terrible atmosphere, there were a couple occasions where it felt a bit callous and poorly placed. Specifically when in rooms with actual dead people. One example is the common room where you grab all the keycards, one of which belongs to one of the first confirmed actual dead bodies. I can't remember too well but I seem to remember that while the atmosphere in the room should emphasize the seriousness of the situation, the dialogue didn't really reflect that.

>>2166355
Would it be a Saintbomber game if anything was completely serious?

>>2166131
There is no physical limit to the amount of ban you can accrue. The real question is: Will Gabby have time to enjoy the ENTIRE ban?

>>2166136
The flashlight thing is, for some reason, giving me fits. I need a training camp, or a programing montage.

>>2166140
Oh shit. That would be a super important one.

>>2166300
>>2166330
I never gave the door fail animation much thought, but you're right. I'll jigger with it.

>>2166351
>>2166355
Another thing that never occurred to me until I sat other people down to play it. It seems obvious, but once I know what's going to happen (or not happen) my brain just kind of glazes over things like closet doors and treasure chests.

General concerns: The tone is something I've always wrestled with in this story. In the end, I'm just going to have to chalk it up as a light-ish take on horror.
And worry not, Gabby has your back. She's just waiting for a good opportunity to expand her territory in that regard.

>>2166491
For the record, I couldn't trigger the bugged shower dialogue >>2166140 at any part except for at the very end.

>>2166504
And I tried going back there at several different points during the sequence, though not every part, it's a rather long walk back

>>2166514
Including out-of-area dialog is a bit of a catch-22.
It's really only there for the people who actively go out to seek it.
On the other hand, not allowing the player the freedom to go back takes the decision out of their hand.
On the other hand, if there is nothing to see outside the current play area, why allow the player to go there in the first place?

It's a game design philosophy that I haven't really made up my mind on yet.
There's still a little Embric poking through that says "Let the player go anywhere they want."
Even if it doesn't make sense.

>>2166568
I think you're misunderstanding what happened.

Basically, after meeting with green hair, you have the event where the shit hits the fan and the power goes out, right? I got that to trigger a second time by going back to the bathroom at the very end of the demo (after solving the problems in Arch wing). Doing so hard-locks the game.

>>2166491
>And worry not, Gabby has your back. She's just waiting for a good opportunity to expand her territory in that regard.
She better expand all over Marine's territory!

The fact that I couldn't get it to trigger anywhere except the end of the game should help narrow it down I'd think

So I noticed this weird skip when I was walking down the rails. I decided to walk back to check it out and it seems to have reset my, uh, walking progress and put me back to the last point where MC was monologuing to herself.

>>2166801
I noticed this too. I assumed it was an area transition.

How long have you been working on this? Also, how many CGs do you think you'll need for the full game?

That's fair. a guy named Dick is on camera for at least two full scenes. Which I'm pretty sure counts as full frontal.

My intention is to make another thread when the project is complete. /u/ is an extremely comfy board, so that should be plenty.

>>2166803
Seemless transitions are difficult. Also, the computer I'm building this on isn't very strong, so it's occasionally difficult to tell the difference between a jaggy transition, and a framerate problem.

For one thing, Quantum Entanglement should be considerably less dreamlike than Embric, and largely linear. (Largely.)

I use Alt+Enter if I don't feel like squinting. F1 may also have a size-change option. It's been a while since I messed with it.

It might have to do with how the Chipset and Sprite sizes appear to be generally smaller in the newer RPGMakers. I dunno.

>>2167982
>I don't know why handrails are so difficult.
Double-check all their passage, passage (4dir) and maybe ladder markings in the tile database. From looks of it, left rail tile has x unpassable so it just acts like a wall block and right might have o passable when they both want * passable under tile. Right seems to at least be above the player though so it might be a passage 4dir thing.

Similarly the 'cracked wall' tile is o passable where normal wall tile isn't, 4dir is maybe broken on those floor tiles and couch is set to pass under tile on the bottom block. Guessing the tile comes with the table so it's more than one square big, they want to be all x.

Just realised this is coming from MV and that's still VXAce so fuck. Practically it's probably the same deal anyway. There's probably a script to change resolution too, it's one of the first things in MV core plugins so I would expect it from VXAce with years more support. Swear I've seen some games with at least an x2 function.

>>2166010
>>2166014
I get the impression it might be because the entire rtp data is included with it.
Does rpgmaker even still require rtps? Haven't touched it since rm2k.

Run smoothly over WINE. Well. 'Smooth'. Some visible framework drop at common room, but I can live with it.

So what does Nothing do?

>>2167987
I miss working in RPGMaker 2003. the tiles are 16x16, and that's really intuitive for me. Also, it's not afraid to go big or go home. (speaking from resolution standpoint)

>>2168388
That works for passability, the problem comes with the shadows going over the player sprite's heads, because despite being squatty little suckers, they're just tall enough to stick their heads under couches and rails.
But yeah, these things haven't really changed much since RPGM3 (the first one I worked in.)

>>2168392
I can probably make it downloadable without the RTP, but I have some less than pleasant memories of people putting Let's Plays of Embric up on Youtube without downloading the RTP first, and walking into Castle Wulfhammer covered in cacti.

I complain about it, but VXA is actually a pretty good program. MX is a bit more user friendly, but there's a lot to say for the public script availability of VXA.

>>2168938
Exactly what is says on the tin.

So, update:
I've just finished implementation of the first full ending. If you have the version I have, you can now finish the game. Further bug-testing will be necessary, of course.)
All of what I would consider to be Gabby's 'Scenes' are finished.
Now it's just filler, ROFLs, and the covering the ability to click on absolutely everything in the entire complex. (I'm sure someone will appreciate that)

>>2166568
Oh I was just looking for a bonus scene there because it was the end of the demo. I figured if our progress was blocked maybe Gabby might like a roll in the sheets. I wouldn't have thought to go back if not for that, though doing so later to see if I could trigger the scene earlier in the storyline let me see a few snippets of extra dialogue.

>>2169188
>(I'm sure someone will appreciate that)
I replayed Embric numerous times just because I liked how interacting with different things would lead to different dialogue prompts, not just generic "It's a thing" or "There's nothing interesting here". And I also got to bang court girls while clicking things, so that's a bonus.

Just gave the demo the once-over again, and noticed a few things.
Split into two posts because 4chan doesn't like me uploaded images that are even remotely large apparently.

Image 1:
Jacob in the intro doesn't have a portrait border. Neither does that scientist waiting for the tram after the tour.

The Power One signs have a few green pixels and one yellow pixel that aren't transparent. The Leeuwenhoek Biological Sciences sign in the Persephone Wing also has a few in purple. (See the Scientist image.)

There's a stray line of transparent pixels on one frame of Marine's right-facing walking sprites after the boiler suit gets torn.

The Office Blouse's description runs off the screen. And I'm pretty sure the Office Blazer should have been removed after it gets torn.

Ugh, it was giving me so much trouble I had to chop the image up and reduce them to 256 colors. Ignore my note about (See the Scientist image) that example is now right below the Power 1 sign.

>>2169387
Image 2:
The ID for Doro Eggler also runs off, but I'm guessing the numberless ID descriptions are just placeholders.

Raffik's ID's description doesn't have a space before the # and the numbers, like the rest of the completed IDs do.

Once you start picking up IDs, you can return to the men's washroom and pick up multiples of John Swanson's ID.

Not pictured:
When first talking to Raffik after the Blorp, he and Marine will talk about the story he told regarding the Hallways even if you don't talk to him about them after the tour.

When returning to the Persephone Wing at the end of the demo, Gabby will say that you found some emergency rations even if you didn't collect them.

There's no conversation when selecting the emergency rations to ask Jacob about.

>>2169210
Also guilty.

Oh, this happens with some events too. They repeat themselves every time you exit and re-enter a room. For example the room with the extra loud music and the scene with glass on the floor.

Does the RPG maker have an option for borderless fullscreen or some sort of upscale? The window is tiny on 1440p, and fullscreen mode moves my stuff to the other monitors.

>>2169841
There's always third party borderless resizing. AHK works well in most cases.

Nothing native. There are some scripts that will upsize it, but I've seen a couple of games that use those suffer from some odd graphics glitches, and I've already given myself a migraine working with the lighting script.

>>2171365
Actually color blind. It came up frequently when playtesting wulfhammer deluxe.

>>2171397
Oh dear. Well I'll definitely have to keep a look out for any additional stray pixels in future versions.

>>2171401

One time our company's outsourced QA filed a major bug about a stray pixel in one corner of a background image that shows up in the game for about two seconds.

>>2172907

I put a cap on that, and put a light on the Portal Room door. It's difficult enough finding some of those rooms on the bottom of the map already without the map being as dark as it is.

Someday, I hope I can re-write the game for a 3D engine, to get the ODSA facility looking like it logically should.

>>2173367
It's not unrelated.

>>2173677
Nothing polished enough for human consumption.
Mostly flowcharts and outlines for games.

+Windfall Island, an oddball game where you play the leader of a cult of Bizang on a storm-locked island that gets raided by adventurers,

+"I Hate Highschool Settings" a game where you play a demon lord whose been sealed up so long that she forgot who she was, and is surprised and shocked to get let out after 1000 years.

+and Orthrus 2, the warped idea of writing a sequel to a story I never finished in the first place, where the Orthrus Management company buys the rights to a team of Magical Girls.
Oddly enough, I've got more material for Orthrus2 than Orthrus1. Different MC, but it takes place in the same weeaboo city.

All Yuri, naturally.

I'm torn on Leaving Arise. Mostly, I feel like it was trying too hard to be another Embric of Wulfhammer's Castle, but without the same heart.
I'm not against revisiting the story, but I'm mainly worried that the characters involved are not very compelling.
I don't really want my body of work to be described as "Happless NPC runs afoul of an adventuring party of bitchy lesbians."
...Though I suppose I could do worse.

>>2177636

>>2177764
>(Not Pictured)
Oh, and here I thought that was a completely accurate account of the events in the game by the end of the demo.

>>2177774
Looking back on it, I may have spoken in haste. Quantum entanglement is an awful lot like the example provided.

The art, however, is a bit more sophisticated.

>>2177781
I'm sure it's quite entangling.

>>2177764
Not that anon who brought Leaving Arise up, but I'd like to add that I had a lot of fun with it too. Also,
>hapless NPC runs afoul of an adventuring party of bitchy lesbians
is now my favourite genre. Even if EoWC is currently the only game that fits that bill.

Personally, I thought that Five Witches was the most interesting. Both in terms of characters and narrative. The sense of mystery and impending danger was gripping. And Her Ladyship, the Countess of Huxey, Eale of Trottoir, Et Cetera was characterised remarkably well in the short span of play time that the game offered. I particularly enjoyed her brand of sardonic humour, but the rest of the cast was likable as well.

I know that you'll probably never return to Five Witches, which is perfectly understandable since it seems to have been written during a bad time. But by god is my curiosity going to drive me crazy.

Who are the five girls in the mansion whom I presume are the eponymous five witches? What is going on? Was that scene from a parallel world, a repressed memory, or something else altogether? Why did Ursula seem to pause upon seeing Beatrice's face? Why does Beatrice look so much like Elenor? Why does Ursula have white-haired sprites in the graphics folder? Shit like this is what keeps me up at night.

Thanks for releasing a demo of it, in any case!

>>2177794
5Witches in a nutshell:
The game was initially designed to be a dimension-hopping game, where you could press the shift key anywhere in the castle, and you would 'lapse' into another world, in the mind of another character.
You start out as the Countess of Huxey, who nominally runs the hub world.
Time is kept by Ursula's story, as her sisters are freed, one by one, from an evil spell that holds them all prisoner in her secluded manor.

For the most part, Ursula is the only one who has all of the other characters in her 'story,' though she is forced to say goodbye to them as their tales in other worlds come to an end.

Eventually, she is the last one held by the spell, and must escape on her own, but she is stopped by the well meaning, but ignorant police detective.
Her sister witches must then pool their resources and accomplishments to return to Ursula's world and rescue her. (from a terrifying 1800's insane asylum)

It gets a bit more complicated from there.

The silent pink-haired one has a science fiction storyline where she turns out to be an immortal space-goddess, who falls into a dangerous relationship with a telepathic and deeply omnivorous insect queen

Another is an intended sacrifice to a mysterious shinto-style divinity.

All in all, it's pretty whack. I think you can get as far as the ayylamo space-ship part if you muck around in prison, and don't accidentally trigger any game-crashing bugs.

Also, WIP of QE's Gabby on a rampage:

>you can get as far as the ayylamo space-ship part
Wait. WHAT. I always ran into a game-crashing bug inside the fortress after the Countess of Huxey woke up from Morion's poisoning attempt and thought that was as far as I could get. All this time, and I never even knew there were other playable characters aside from her and Ursula, much less multiple dimensions. This is incredible! I need to revisit the game right away and see if there's a way to progress beyond that bug.

I tried 5W again, I think I'm stuck after the countess wakes up again and goes in the prison. The guard offers to open the cell where unruly guards were kept. There is a sparkling thing that signifies plot progress, but it won't do anything.

A proper flashlight would start at Marine's hand, and go to the end of the screen. but alas, software limitations. The new lighting script is promising (when it's not giving me glitch-induced fits) so we'll see how that goes.

It's interesting to see where /u/'s secret desires lay though.
So I suppose alt ToT: What is the genre you know you're never going to see yuri for, but might throw a couple of bucks at?

>>2180611
FPS yuri. The obligatory sniping mission would have you taking the shots while having to deal with extra sway and occassionaly jerkyness due to receiving oral sex during the mission.

>>2180611
Shonen plot with yuri protagonist and lots of girls to pick from.

Danganronpa with a clearly yuri protagonist. I'd do this myself but mysteries are damn hard to write.

>>2180611
Awful micropayment-riddled mobage or similar browsergame.

The closest example I am aware of was Sword Girls, and the romance in that was all subtext, triangles and angst that never went anywhere.

So a timewaster with tons of shameless yuri couples would be nice.

>>2180611
Thematic genre or game genre?

Thematically, I've always loved 1930's gangster stories. Prohibition, criminal underworld, hard-boiled detectives, etc. If there were lesbians involved, it'd be even better.

For game genres, I feel any could benefit with lesbians. But I think a fun thing would be like a sprawling 3d platformer like Banjo-Kazooie, but every character is a cute girl and you flirt with them to get new abilities and powerups.

I'm aware my two suggestions are also pretty mutually exclusive. I don't expect a cute girl 3D platformer to take place in a 1930s gangster story.

In the city-state of Hesta, woman's wrestling is taken very seriously.
Since ancient times, when diplomacy broke down, Hestan women, they would take their problems to the sacred ring, under the eyes of the gods. (As it turns out, the gods are all wrestling fanatics)
After a proper ceremony, divine beings descend from the heavens to observe pacts made over the ring, and good commentary is rewarded by clerical powers.
The story focuses on the champions of the sacred ring, and those who strive for greatness there.

>>2180987
I wonder if Rockstar games would accept my idea for a Grand Theft Auto with a lesbian protagonist?

>>2180987
When I kicked around sandbox/horror, the best I could come up with is a Valkyrie Drive spin-off game that played like Megaman ZX, where you play an Exter that doesn't natively have any attack buttons, but the object of the game was to find a Liberator you liked, convince them that your cause was just, then join with them to beat the others in a free-roaming environment.
I would probably write this if someone else would program/art that. The horror angle is that you play a desirable Exter with a lot of power, and no one on your terrible lesbian prison island has any compunctions against claiming you regardless of your feelings on the matter.

>>2181652
Call it a third-tier goal for Quantum Entanglement. Once I've got art for the key scenes, we can talk about getting art for a mini-game. But that said? Fuck yes, that would be great.
I've always wanted to write the scene where Rododendra reveals her true form as a Buddhist Magic card-shark.

>>2180611

#1:
Story: Tongue-in-cheek noir; a non-magical detective lady solves murders and other assorted crimes in a magical world, and gets involved with the witch in red dress (including a red pointy hat) who walks into the detective's office and has legs that seem to go on forever
World: Discworld-inspired
Gameplay: Classic Lucasarts point-and-click, with an inventory etc

#2:
Story: Mushishi/Mononoke, traveling protagonist solves people's magical problems and leaves a trail of broken hearts in her wake, occasionally visiting That One Girl
World: Witches/European mythology (Ancient Magus Bride / Igarashi Daisuke's Witches)
Gameplay: Aquaria/Ori and the Blind Forest

Unfortunately both game types would be super artwork-intensive, though both stories/worlds could also be made in the RPG-maker style.

>>2180611
Actually good Metroidvania with a touch of horror. Scavenging abandoned ships, looking for survivors, etc. Yuri can come in a form of a survivor you find or a friendly alien. I think I vaguely remember a similar indie 2D platformer that was about crawling around some fucked up ship, but it wasn't /u/-related.

Another option is a Bloodborne-esque adventure/action game but with more character interaction. I'm torn between having the MC be an actual character that can speak and have a bit of free will and a silent protagonist. It would be harder to write any meaningful romance when one of your characters is a blank state, I guess, but the servant/master dynamic can work, if you make the MC something like an empty doll who only finds its purpose in serving others.

Generally, I just want more "serious" genres. I'm fine with VNs, but they eventually get boring. Gameplay is important, too, and most VNs don't even have the basic interactivity like picking different options that lead to different routes. Yuri doesn't even have to be the main focus of the game, as far as I'm concerned. An actually solid high-budget game that has a well-written romance between two girls is something I would like to see eventually, but I feel like this won't happen in the next five years or so.

>>2182175
>I wonder if Rockstar games would accept my idea for a Grand Theft Auto with a lesbian protagonist?

tfw you like this idea, but are bad at writing mysteries.
I adore mononoke for it's insane ritual styles. I thought it would be fun to have a fairly standard role-playing game where you play someone like the main character from Mononoke (the mendicant, or something along those lines.) where you have no access to the menu or the character's internal thought process.
All the choices you make in this hypothetical game are made from a point of view other than the main character.

>>2182314
I got as far as the character design process for a game where you play an elf that wakes up from cryo-sleep in a mostly ruined tower. The tower's electronics are made from questionably organic plant fibers that you have to cultivate back into working condition, harvest-moon style, allowing you access to higher and higher levels, and more cryo-sleepers that can help you out.
tldr: Naked elf cybernetic plant farming sim.

>>2182353
When designing Embric, I shot for around 4 hours of game-time. ...It's easy to overshoot when your game involves a certain amount of wandering around, looking for events. This length assumes a reasonable reading speed, since reading makes up so much of the game.

Regrettably, it's what I have rather than time to actually write them all.

>>2182518
It's difficult to measure how long 100% completion is, unless you're actively indicating where to go next.
The design method I used for Embric was the idea that you could go anywhere and find SOMETHING to click on.
The idea was to promote and reward exploration.
In any case, I shot for around 4 hours of gameplay if you basically ran from main event to main event, then to the 999 Anti-Paladins event.
Once I had that, I started fleshing out some of the side routes. (Arugula and King Stew, Carmina, Bath-Quest, Grettel, Huraine) Three is a good number of bonkers side-quests.
That's when I finally set eyes on a final ending, which hopefully ties everything together. (or tears it apart, depending on your interpretation of the 'fight' with Tierra)
If I was going to recommend a formula for an Embric-Like (heehee) that would be it.
3 core routes.
3 bonkers side-quests,
1 fake-out final area
1 real final area.
the ability to click on everything that isn't a bare wall or floor tile, and get something.
Oh yes. And don't forget the maids. They are very important to the formula.

There's no finance in play, just raw materials. Time and stamina are the real commodity in play, as you need a certain amount of shelter against the cold in the form of clothes and non-cryo-pod bedding for you and your cryo-sisters.
Also, limited resources for tools and tower/robot/system repairs.
Cannabalize the tower to repair the robots and make farming and defense easier? Cannabalize the robots to get further up and repair the walls that keep the cold out? Or patiently hunt machines and systems that are damaged beyond repair for parts?

The main character was eventually re-purposed into Gloria's weapons tech for Orthrus, but there's no reason she can't be both.

Altessa Syndrome:
When an important priestess passes away after 70 years of imperial service, the empire must send a new priestess to a remote temple across the sea. The Priestess must be female, of royal blood, and unsullied by man.
To ensure the priestess' safety, the empire's most modern submarine is re-staffed by an all-female crew for a long undersea voyage.
During the voyage, the priestess hears a mysterious sound, like a cry for help, despite the importance of haste and secrecy, the captain responds to the underwater distress signal and picks up a mysterious payload that may be tied to the original ritual the priestess is there to continue...

I have an intro script for it, and even had some art commissioned for it.
But three artists bailed on me for various reasons, and I was eventually convinced that the project was cursed. An Embric buddy of mine even did some consulting on submarine physics and policies for me.
But due to the EXTREMELY limited number of places to explore, I wanted the format to be more visual-novel-like, and needed art for it.
I could probably still write this story.

Resource management is great. It's just not really HM like if you can't sell what you farm, plan fields en masse, and things like that.
I'm picky on the subject. Such a game sounds great regardless. But whether it's HM like is a different matter.

>>2183512
How did you come up with an overarching plot? Just find a premise, throw in some characters and wing it? The only thing I have on the drawing board is "Persona social links and urban fantasy."

SaintBomber should scrap development completely and move the project over to RPG Maker Fes on 3DS.

Fair enough. I'll leave harvest moon off the hypothetical slogan. As is, I'm mostly concerned with the key words: Elf, lesbian, cryosleep, salvage and cultivation. That more or less gets me where I want to be.

>>2185333
Embric's original meta-plot, during development was "A loose Duchess gets sexed up a lot."
Once I was past the development phase, it came around to "A loose Duchess works her way to the top of an adventurer's fortress."
It wasn't until most of the way through that anything deeper came of it.
Start with something simple, like a direction you want your social urban fantasy to go, then let your plot write itself while you concentrate on the stuff you like the most.
Ideally something that isn't going to get in the way of the primary focus of the game: IE the social links.
Now it wouldn't hurt if your social links amounted to something. In Persona, it's a direct boost to your combat effectiveness and availability of the game's main power matrix, the personas. I suspect if you can figure out what your links do for your main character, you'll have what you need to continue development.

>>2185364
>scrap development completely
I know this advice comes from a place of kindness, Oneesama, but I think I'll stick this one out.
That said, I love my 3DS, and if it comes out in English, and isn't complete garbage, you can bet your bottom drachma that I'll try my hand at it for a later project.

Also, good news! All Gabby Endings are now complete. Just a bit more CLICKEVERYTHING dialogs and a couple of background systems, and the game will be complete enough for some beta-testing.

>>2185459
Oh, I wasn't serious at all. 100% not serious suggestion.

Mostly minor stuff, but still
From version 0.91


1- No security card shows up when you enter in the ARC Security Kiosk, when the access is granted
2- In ARC, i ended up with 2 Swanson IDs. Probably related to the fact that i entered the bath 2 times, one before and one after i went into recreation room and officially started snatching IDs.
3- If you leave the room with the talking stone right after the initial dialogue, and then re-enter, it gets played again
4- when you go to sleep for the first time in the game, when you wake up and go interact with gabby's mirror, she's still wondering wether she should either sleep or bath first
5- Not sure if intended, but there's no clue to the presence of a passage to the kitchen, in the main recreation room

That aside, i loved it and can't wait to see where it goes. Chapeau.

Also,

FPS, or Beat em up, or something in between. I'll fill that hole myself hopefully, still working on the gameplay for the Underdurt RoboDuchess game

>>2192341
If I can squeeze out a single tear for that ending, I consider it a solid victory.

There are 3 Gabby endings (not counting the occasional Non-Standard Game Over from trying out the lethal jokes)

I'm not entirely certain how to make the side-exits stand out. Any advice would be helpful.

>>2193037
You're a ways off from the endings yet.
After the scene your talking about (I think?) head back to the Persephone Wing central area. Raffik will help you figure out where to go next.
Flashlights are in that central room, in one of the boxes.

I'm still trying to figure out whether the flashlights should be mandatory for advancing or not. They are really helpful in finding your way around.
Any thoughts?

Incidentally, what got me thinking that the absence of a mark for the kitchen was not intended was because of the "access" signs near the variable lenght corridors (which look just like the solution the other anon proposed). I thought they were HUD marks to tell you where there's a side passage, so i was surprised when i just walked on that square and saw the "access denied" card animation, and no "access"...but now i guess they were simply written on those walls.

You come from inside of the kitchen shortly after, so for that particular part there's no "easy to miss area" problem, but in general little animated arrows could also be an easy marking solution.

Didn't have any trouble with the bottom doors in ARC, it's clear it's a corridor. Other side doors have been easy to find too (the fab's one's got the hint-light, others have a sign, or are "suspicious crannies in an otherwise linear wall", which is enough of an hint by itself), the kitchen's been the only confusing one, probably because the room is so small.

Especially since you can capture Nihillego, giving you access to the very source of the villain's final turn.

We caught a LOT of bugs on the .9~.92

I want to give it a really thorough scouring before I release a .93, make sure I didn't create a host of new bugs with the fixes.

Once that's done, it's the wait on Claudine's route, and art resources.

>>2204993
Wait, did you release .92 already?

>>2204993
Anons can wait warmly!

No, it's the current model I'm still tweaking.
That could have been more clear, I'm sorry.

>>2205076
Thank you. Anon is the best.

I agree, anon.

I was waiting for the new update because the new game+ is giving me trouble and I can't get past the Archimedes area because somebody kidnapped the portable generator MKII-kun.

>>2205291
If you just want to keep playing to see the NG+ content, enter "Gabby" as your favourite polish breakfast food. NG+ content without the NG+ bugs, as far as I tested. Admittedly, I didn't test super far.

Don't get any funny ideas and try to get onto Claudine's route. It's as unplayable as you'd expect from a route that you aren't supposed to play yet.

>>2205305
Well now, maybe I'll just play the demo area a couple more times with this information and try to figure out some new bugs.
Playing newgame+ without actually finishing the game once is probably a bad idea isn't it.

>>2205379
It's a bad idea.

>>2205592
I thought not. I guess I'll just continue to be >>2204997

>>2205379
Yep, it's a bad idea since there is new content you aren't supposed to see if you haven't finished the game yet.
>>2205305
Thanks anon.
I've tried entering cooooouuugar (5 o's and 3 u's ofc), borpocalipse and a lot of other combinations but never thought of entering Gabby as my favourite Polish breakfast. Now I feel dumb for giving up so fast.

>>2205766
It's definitely NOT PENIS.

>picking your roommate as your favorite breakfast on the first try
L-lewd.

>default text for favorite food is 'polish breakfast'
>Which is slang for raw egg mixed into a pint of beer

just beat the demo, final time was nearly an hour an a half due to getting stuck on two points.

and after seeing the deathlaser in the labs, it maade me want for those sierra adventure game overs where touching obvious and not so obvious dangers got you a melodramati death scene then you retry'd from when you entered the room.

got some pretty noticeable slowdown on the main common room. Goes to show that this laptop truly is the toastest of toasters.

Love the music. Has a sort of 'Alice in Wonderland IIIIN SPAAAAACE' vibe to it

Finally, SB, now that I know you're a House of Leaves fan I love you even more. If you haven't already I highly recommend the Rifters trilogy, or at least Starfish, the first book.

>melodramati death scene
Now I kinda want to see death-related puns.

>>2206495
I suppose that begs the question, is anyone testing the sunglasses? I'm pretty sure I tested them, so the fact that there's been no bugs reported WAS making me confident, but now I wonder if anyone used them.
Ditto the Buddhist magic cards.

>>2206602
I definitely forgot to use both of those things.

>>2206602
>you can actually use some of the items beyond bringing them to Jacob
I did not realize this.

>>2206602
Whaaat.
>>2206672
Me neither.

Now I'm trying everything and you can actually give Marine Nothing and she gets confused. Then I gave her emergency rations and her confusion was cured?

It would appear we've hit the bump limit, fellow janitors.
I guess it's time for our memory treatments.

Just cracked open Starfish, like what I'm seeing.

>>2206672
I tried to drop some hints, but it may just end up an easter egg.

Eating usually helps.

>>2206765
Good run, /v/ thank you all very much.
I'll make another thread when I have something more significant to report.

In the meantime, I have Beta-Tester emails, so if you want in, sent me an Email.
