Laying out game ideas.

Funny how Artists have that think that when they are not working on something they get lots of ideas about it. Then when the time is to finally work on it they have a white cartoon bubble over their head.

Funny enough the same happened to me. While doing other pinups the past weeks I was full of ideas about the game. Of course when I sat down to start, I was looking at a blank piece of screen that was waiting to be filled. And the blank screen was looking back at me ^^.

So after a long battle of staring at each other, I stepped away defeated. Started doing other stuff around the house and after a while ideas started pouring in again. Instead of rushing back to the PC to work on that empty document I started writing them down on whatever paper I could find in front of me each time. With each idea problems arose but I didn't push too hard to solve them on the spot. Instead they were solving themselves a while later creating another note on another piece of paper. 

For example she is not really Lara she is a cosplayer. She bump her head while dressed up like Lara, she wakes up, noone around to tell her otherwise, sees a poster of tomb raider, she looks her clothes, she thinks she is her. Notices a pin on a map and what seems to be expedition notes and she is convinced that pin represents her next expedition.

Her friend brought her home but she is not around when she wakes up. Returns home to find her in that condition, calls the doctor who suggests she pays along and her memory will come back over time. In the meantime "Lara" books tickets for the trip. But she has no money so goes for the cheap company/root. And from then all all hell breaks loose. They will have to trick their way into getting money to continue their trip, and YOU player, will help them. How to get money? Many different opportunities depending on the place they are each time, some sexy, some risky and some .. somewhat legit, or a mix of all above. Actions will have an effect on the players like corruption/love/obedience/slave and such, which could offer alternate narrative and scenes. Also lets not forget that "Velma" wants to get in her friends pants. Would that be towards a "love" or a "dominatrix" way? Same goes for "Lara" she can influence her friends stats depending on your choices during the game. Obviously these would not be whole-game-changers but would offer alternate sexy time scenes/actions that could make the game be played more than once to see them all. 

The above image is just some thoughts on the intro and of course some game mechanics described above. 

BUT while it is still early and while I can work on the intro, I would like to hear YOUR thoughts on the proposed game mechanics and other ideas of your own. If you play adult VNs you would have seen some of the proposed above already but maybe you have some other idea that would be a good addition. I would love to hear from you. And that is independent of weather you are a Patron or not. Everyone can post. 

PS. Yes the lovely artwork on top is finished game quality ^^
