Poll #8 - Which "side" characters get a new scene and second outfit?
Added 2024-10-01 16:01:02 +0000 UTCFor this poll, we're going to be deciding which existing side characters not only get a new scene, but also get a second outfit!
The idea is that the side character will appear in a different area than they usually do, and will be wearing a different outfit. I'll go into detail about what the secondary outfit would be when I post each of the options, because it will vary depending on the character. I had considered doing sketches of the new outfits, but there's a lot of options, and since the majority wont get chosen, and it would have been a lot of work and taken a lot of time to do, I decided it'd be better to just do descriptions instead.
This is something I originally wanted to do with a lot of characters, but it ended up being one of the things sacrificed with the addition of random characters and scaling back the project a bit. I'd like at least a couple of characters to have it though, so I thought I'd let everyone vote on who gets the special treatment!
Here are the rules for what I'm considering a "side" character.
Characters with 1 scene.
No one already guaranteed to have another scene.
No one with planned use in the future.
No one with story restrictions.
Okay yeah, that's it. Basically, no one like Seika or Angela will be in this version of the poll. They're already planned to have another scene, and already have multiple scenes, so I don't want the slot being used on them. Also no one from the MMC storyline, since the story is still ongoing and I don't want to potentially add any new scenes for them until the story is over. But I am including characters like Freya and Skadi, since I wanted to be able to include as many options as possible and new scenes for them isn't guaranteed. So even though characters like Freya and Skadi aren't really side characters, they're included. I couldn't include Almiranda though, because she's being held in the lab. It wouldn't make any sense to do something like take her for a day out or something. Dr. Hikari would absolutely never let that happen.
And last up is how voting will work. This will be a normal poll. Everyone can only vote for one option. I'll then take the top 3 and they'll be implemented into the game with a new scene and a new outfit. If the game doesn't continue past v0.3, this will be the last poll like this. If there's someone you'd like to see get a new scene, be sure to vote!
Now let's get to the options! I'm just going to go in the order I have them sorted in my game files, which is mostly alphabetical.
Alicia -
You normally find Alicia on the beach, but if she wins, you'll get to find her while she's at work at the office building downtown. She'll have a professional looking suit on. You'll be able to sneak away and bang her in an empty office. If the scene gets added before the office building does, she'll be outside the office on break until the office building is done. She'll "sneak you in" for the scene and then "sneak you out" at the end.
Aoyagi -
Normally you find her in her sluttier breeding clothes, but if this wins, you'll be able to find her shopping in the commercial district, in more casual clothes. Still kind of slutty relatively speaking, since that's her personality, but more casual. Something like a crop top and maybe shorts instead of her miniskirt. You'll be able to take her to a dressing room and bang her.
Hitomi -
After you've completed the lab storyline, if you've kept Hitomi around, you'll be able to take her out of the house. You're not really sure if interacting with her and the other EDBs has fully pulled them into your reality or not, and it's not like you can ask Dr. Hikari. You have to come up with a way to get her out of the house without anyone thinking it's weird, so you take her to a convention. To make it more convincing, you tell her that she'll need to dress up in a costume. You try to convince her to dress up like an in-universe demoness character, but she really wants to wear a bunnygirl outfit. So you get her a bunnygirl outfit. It will turn out that other people still can't see her. While at the convention she'll get "hungry" and you'll be able to bang her.
I'll need to make a new area for this, so if it gets picked, I'll open up the train and make it so you can go to the convention area. I'd then fill the area with all of the different random characters. They'll be "cosplayers" for stuff like the random nurse, and just congoers otherwise. Since Hitomi is a lab character, and can't go wandering, you'll need to talk to her and choose to go out, instead of going to find her like the others.
Freya -
After you've completed the lab storyline, if you've kept Freya around, you'll be able to take her out of the house. She tells you that she's bored and wants to leave the apartment. She says she saw a club on TV and wants to go to one. Her normal dress is too formal, and too hot, since it's made out of fire magic. So you would need to buy her a club dress just in case people can see her. She gets "hungry" at the club, so you get to bang her in the bathroom. To go along with her story, if this gets picked the train will open up and you'll be able to ride it to the club. I'll then fill it with any random character that makes sense. So at least random skanks. Just like Hitomi, you'll need to talk to her and choose to go out.
Dr. Hikari -
Yet another character where you'll need to finish the lab storyline. Feels weird including her since she doesn't have one scene yet, but since this is the only chance she'll get to have another scene, I wanted to make sure she was an option.
You'll be able to find her at the university giving a lecture in her off time. She'll be dressed a little more formally in a full dress. If you go to the lecture, she'll be surprised and impressed, and will take you back to her place. Y'know. For sex.
Rinko -
You normally see Rinko at the school looking very professional, but if she wins you'll get to find her in her apartment in sexy lingerie. Once you've seduced her at the school, she'll say that you can come by her apartment sometime. Not one to do anything half way, when you come over she'll be waiting for you in sexy lingerie. If this happens, I'll even implement pregnancy for her. I can make it so that she wont make you use a condom because it's a "safe day". But she can end up pregnant anyway and you'll be able to convince her to keep it for the money, or let her just take care of the pregnancy and not get paid. It'll just be the lowest chance.
Sakura -
For Sakura, you'll find her hanging out at the beach. She'll be in a swimsuit and you'll be able to find a secluded spot to bang her.
Shizuka -
You'll need to complete the pregnancy storyline, but once you do, you'll be able to find her at home in a schoolgirl outfit. She'll say that she borrowed it from Ai. You then get to bang her in the schoolgirl outfit. I may also give her a tan and make her look full gyaru. It's something I'd have to test out while doing the design though. If it works, I'd probably make it so she's tan sometimes and normal others. Just to make it more interesting.
Skadi -
Then last but not least, we have Skadi. If you kept her around, after you've completed the lab storyline she'll tell you she's kind of bored and wants to try something she saw on TV called "video games." You tell her that you know of a great place for that, an arcade. Her clothes are way too formal, and also too cold, since they're made out of ice magic. So you buy her a more normal looking outfit just in case people can see her. Something like an off the shoulder crop top and pants, to further give homage to one of her inspirations, Emma Frost. She'll get hungry and you'll be able to bang her in the bathroom. Much like Hitomi and Freya, this would require adding a new area and opening up the train. I'll then fill it with any random character that makes sense. So at least random skanks and probably MILFs and schoolgirls.
If somehow both Freya and Skadi get selected, as a sort of bonus, if you've done both Skadi and Freya's new scenes, they'll both go on the trips to the club and arcade. They wont get a third new scene or anything, but you'll have the option to take Skadi into the bathroom at the club and do a variation of her new scene. And take Freya into the bathroom at the arcade and do a variation of her new scene.
That's all folks -
And those are the options! I'm looking forward to seeing which characters get chosen!
