Announcing new SYS game!
Added 2021-02-14 16:56:09 +0000 UTCHappy Valentines Day everyone!
I'm very excited to announce that the project I've been working on for the past many months has been completed! As some older Patrons might remember, I've stopped the production of the Sabi Yabi Comix to focus on something else instead. In this case: Sabi Yabi Showdown!

This is a digital party boardgame for 0 - 8 Players! Mainly inspired by 100% Orange Juice and Itadaki Street 2, in SYS you must seize control of a city by any means necessary. There are multiple ways to do this and you can either try a more peaceful approach or use destructive force and sabotage your opponents operations.
Making money is a big part of the game and you will need it to construct new buildings, buy items which can heal you or buff your stats, invest in stocks or even place a bounty on another player! There are multiple ways on how to earn money and your character will play a big role in how you'll approach your goal.
You can earn cash in a lot of different ways: Winning fights, having shops which generate income, winning in the casino or (if you're really desperate), you can prostitute yourself! Do everything that needs to be done to claim this city as your own!
Anyway, here are a few screenshots of the game. :)

If you have Taunts activated, regular craptalking like this can occur!

Here are the main features of the game:
- Earn money and build up your own chain of many, many shops which include: Noodle Restaurants, Bakeries, Brothels, Gun Shops and fancy Hotels.
- Other players can enter your shops and buy goods and items from you. If you don't like 'em, make them pay double. If you hate them, ban them from the premises.
- Outfit your character with a variety of items which can heal you, buff your abilities or permanently increase your stats and make you stronger.
- All characters have different abilities as to how they can fight and make money. One can prostitute themselves, another one farts their enemies to death.
- Includes a simplified stock market system which allows you to invest into companies or even other players.
- Hire guards which defend your interests. One possible guard is a Shiba Inu Dog doing backflips to evade attacks.
- Place a bounty on other players which will lure contract killers into the town. Even other players can claim the bounty.
- If played by the AI, all characters have their own, unique personalities and behave differently from eachother.
- Buy other player's properties via auctions or go the more brutal way and blow said properties up.
- Special event cards keep the experience fresh and unpredictable.
- Includes a Soundtrack Editor so that you can create your own playlists which you can listen to in-game.
- Mod friendly: You'll only need to edit a few extremely easy to read .inis to include your own items, shops, graphics, sounds and even your own characters!
The game will be free to download for everyone! Game Release will be here shortly!
While everything is done and in the game that I wanted it to have, with your support I could expand it even more and make it bigger, more varied and more fun to play!
Once the game has launched, all future new content will first be available to Patrons for a certain amount of time before it will be made available to the public. Their names will also be listed in the credits. I will soon publish the benefits of each tier.
To all current Patrons: On top of the HS mod benefits your current tier brings you, you will of course also be receiving the benefits for everything SYS related. ('ᴗ')
That's it for now! Please stay tuned for further updates on the project.
Have a good sunday!
