I’m starting my miniLD entry for the All Talk theme. I’m going to be using C++ with SFML and Code::Blocks as my IDE to create a text-based conversation game. The game will give you some text from a person talking about you will be given some options to reply with. Each different option will branch to another option, so the game will be a full conversation with lots of replayability for different scenarios and endings. I only have a very vague idea for the storyline, but I think it will develop as I write each part.

I’m starting the engine right now. I don’t think it will be very tough. The main work will come from writing and linking all the conversation pieces together.

I hope to learn how to effectively distribute my C++ games with SFML for multiple platforms – but starting with Windows, since this is the first time I will be making a game in C++, let alone using SFML. I typically use MMF2.
