After sifting through several different ideas, I’ve got a premise that I like.

I should be able to finish it without too much trouble.

I’ve decided to go way out of my normal development fare. I’m making a furry girl’s love game. Oh hell yes. And the best ending has polyamory. No further spoilers about that.

It’s about a vixen who has a crush on her next-door neighbor. Along with her best friend, she courts the neighbor and tries to win her heart. The game will track how the neighbor feels about the protagonist as well as how the protagonist’s best friend feels about her. The ending will ultimately depend on those two things. However, either opinion reaching an extreme value will give an ending that depends on both opinion values.

The game will be told from a third-person perspective. IE: The protagonist appears as a character on-screen instead of being the narrator. I like writing stories from the third-person perspective. It gives a nice feel to calmer stories, where a first-person perspective is better for action-packed plots.

I’m very happy to be doing this game. It’s a great break from the sorts of things that I’ve been doing. It’s also a good reason to do a bunch of drawing. Also, I get to learn to do actual art in Inkscape. (Granted that I don’t have a tablet, so I’ll have to use a mouse)

I will use a manga style, no gradients, and no outlines. The flat colors and lack of outlines are style elements that I’m very comfortable with. The manga art style is new to me, though, and I haven’t made static character art in quite a while.

The music will be done in LMMS, and sound effects will be made with some clever LMMS work.

I look forward to working with Ren’Py. I’ve been playing with it for most of today, and it’s loads of fun.

Peace,
