Getting started!
Added 2018-07-13 21:23:50 +0000 UTCHi folks! The project is officially starting! I already did some initial cleanup of my old framework code, making it less bug prone and enabling it to receive some new planned features like:
- Skeleton animated characters in dialog sequences (no more talking to static images)
- Scenes with normal mapped animated sprites and dynamic lightning
- A more generic perk system (not limited to the D.IC.K. statuses) but still simple enough to avoid heavy grinding mechanics
- Better story branch support
- Translation support ?
I'm already working on the intro scene which will lead to the "recruitment" hub. I'll attempt a less linear plot, where each girl will have her own story and events. Let's see what it will take us! You'll meet these characters soon!
Yet another poll
You probably notice that I added a "Translation support ?" up there. I'd like to know how many people think that is an interesting feature. It makes the scripts just a little more tricky to write, and of course I'd need some volunteers for translations as I can only (barely) write in English and Portuguese. So... Would you like to play the game in another language?

I would use the tool to make you an german translation.

2018-07-14 22:10:08 +0000 UTCIf you arent even secure on your english, english is maybe not your first language or your maybe not just great at gramma, you should maybe also consider someone to have a look over your writings.

2018-07-14 21:26:04 +0000 UTCI think english is fine for a lot of people but if you need a translator, I am volunteer for a french translation. By the way, it will take time for a good translation. So I think that you must prepare the game only in english and after, if you think it is a good idea, make various translation in multiple languages with volunteers. So the hard work will be only for the final version.
2018-07-14 19:23:36 +0000 UTCIt would only make sense if you find someone to do the translations for you. But still, it would take an extra amount of time. Focus on the game, you‘re doing a pretty good job. 👍

2018-07-14 09:23:58 +0000 UTCwhile i believe that there would be many ppl that appreciate a multilangual choice, i doubt that its worth the trouble. English is a language Thats understood by most ppl, and if they are not that good with english , they have a reason to get better at it xD.
