Hi bro. I dont understand exactly the genre, I figured it could be some sort of resource management strategy RPG game.

Other than that, I am a firm believer in the idea that art and porn first, so good art justifies anything. Could you tell me details about the art choices you intend to do? Does your game involves porn ? I hope it does.

Man I been working and thinking on the last week's and well good news and bad news.
the good news it's that I already made the first character wrote all the dialogs of the introduction and well good progress if I keep at this ritm I would publish the version 1.0 in two or three months ( I don't plan to publish anything until I have 15 to 20 % percent of the game done)
The bad news it's that I realized that I was overconfident of my abilities and after reflecting for a few days I decide that the game that I wanted to create was to much just for me so there was two options to take
A) let the proyect on hold for at least two years until I have the abilities needed to create the game of my dreams, with the advice of everyone
B) create a more basic game that have nothing to do with my first proyect but that would help me polish all my abilities, but it would take more time to create the game that I wanted but making the game has some perks like being more well know in the community, more contacts and extra Cash for my dream proyect.
I decide to choose B because even though it's not exactly the game that I anticipated it would help me get closer to my goals
So that would pretty much it I would post the first characters in this thread ( It you know anything about drawing or wants to give me some opinion of my drawing I would be happy to read it) I hope after finishing this project I would be able to draw ten times better
Post data: if you are interested in this project I can give you the introduction of the game
It's good to see that you're calmly checking what might work and what might not.
This is one of the first steps any developer, experienced or not, has to take to convey some trust and credibility.
And in my opinion, if you see that a basic project is better (short, medium, large in size, but with good content, art, good interactions, etc.), you might also be on the right track, as long as you don't get lost in nebulous planning and greed.

Your pretty much spot on I'm the genre of the game it's doing that while you corrupt the characters
And yes the game involves porn, about my art choices well It took me some time but I decided to create a mix between realistic and anime style leaning more on the realistic side (you can see my first character in this thread if you like) I also plan in putting a lot of effort in the art style over everything hope that answers your questions

Yes that was pretty much my whole thinking process, I Hope that you like the new project I would be updating a little about my art with information of the characters here so you can come Check thus thread more often

To be honest, it seemed big enough to make me a little worried. Projects that are too daunting can lead to burnout and loss of interest.

We congratulate and encourage you for setting your goals in a more long-term and progressive direction.

I'm also curious about the new project.

you have to improve art. Use AI if you cant draw. Thats all it matters in porn.

Thanks I also think that I did the right decision and I hope that this proyect ends well
And about the proyect it's gonna be a rpg resource management were you have to corrupt the other protagonist there gonna be two povs, the male and female protagonist but 80 % it's gonna be about the male protagonist
This is the introduction
At 16, you were the most popular person in high school, known for making friends easily and being a star soccer player. You were on the verge of earning a full scholarship, and everything seemed to be going perfectly—until one day, you rejected a girl who was infatuated with you. Upset by the rejection, she falsely accused you of rape. Despite the lack of evidence, her father, the chief of police, and her uncle, the town governor, made sure you were convicted. You spent two years in jail, and by the time you were released, everything had fallen apart: you lost your friends, your girlfriend, your scholarship, and any chance of going to college. Your father and brother turned against you, and to make matters worse, you were added to a predator list, making it impossible to find work.

The only reason you didn’t give up was your mother, who always believed in you. But despite her support, life continued to beat you down. Five years of humiliation followed, and eventually, you stopped trying. Thirty years after the incident, you're a recluse, spending your days in your room, with no purpose in life and a big por addiction. Your mother has been taking care of you all this time, but when she passes away from a heart attack, you’re left devastated. At her funeral, while she’s being buried, you promise to try living again.

After the funeral, you meet with your mother's lawyer for the reading of her will. For the first time in 25 years, you see your younger brother, who now has a family of his own. He mocks you for being a burden. The lawyer reads the will, which states that everything your mother owned—including her mansion and company—will go to your younger brother unless the following conditions are met within a year:

  1. Your brother and his family fail to live in the mansion with you for at least a year, during which he has to cover your basic expenses like food, water, and clothing.
  2. You must overcome your fear of going outside, quit your addiction to pornography, and find a job.
  3. You must find a woman who loves you and marry her.
If you meet these conditions within a year, you will inherit everything. And so, the game begins: will you manage to turn your life around, or will you end up homeless?

I appreciate your opinion but AI art is so souless that would remove any desire for my game
I would encourage you to use AI. Reason: if you are not expert gam developer, your first game will be utter trash anyway. If you do not have art skills, to develop them will take time and who knows how many times you will change your ideas, based on the intuition you develop through art learning process.

AI offers you the optimal path, while you learn artistry (with AI support), you are able to focus solely on your game, hence you will improve your game mechanics, you will improve your game coding skills.

youre always in time to swap all AI assets with your hand drawn ones. You would be able to use AI assets as "placeholder". and meanwhile you do progress.

Third and last advantage: having a game mockup will help you convey your idea, in case you will seek cooperation.

Although I am also negative about AI drawings, I agree that they are very easy to make and reduce work time.
At the very least, it can be used as a temporary resource before starting work, or it can be helpful in sketching or basic composition.

And your new project looks organized. I'm looking forward to it.

I really love the idea to use the Ai as placeholder and I would definitely use it and I really appreciate all your other pointers but I would definitely not create a trash game even though it's my first game I will put all my effort into it and I want to create something that it's mine and I know it's not gonna win game of the year but as long as am proud of my own creation I would feel proud of my self

Yes that's what am gonna use it for as helpful tool for my drawing and I would put the progress I did today it's almost nothing because I change my drawing app for a better one with more things to make the process more faster but it's taking me more than expected to understand every feature. Im gonna go easy on that, so until that Im not gonna be posting about my drawing but my advance on the game itself. But for now my small advance export202409030141329708.png

yes thats the spirit. try to do the best. But what I mean is that you will make experience, you will change your mind on various things. Your first game will always have a special place in your heart for sure. But I would not start with a big almost impossible game that demands tonnes of art...

The risk is that you get demoralized. The risk is high. I seen even major artists getting demoralized and dropping their games, some created a game and took 4 years to achieve minuscule results, demoralization happens do not think I am making it up, it is so common among game makers who underestimated the challenges.

But instead, if you are abit more honest, and you use AI, your goal will be reachable. You are always in time to swap all AI assets. Perhaps it could be good to create a well planned progress pipeline, while in the beginning you just focus on core mechanics, but you have plan to expand the game... Thats my 2 cents.

I really I apreciate your toughs and because of that I would focus on the core mechanics and the dialogue before the art, I would not change my mind about the AI but after Finish most of the mechanics and dialogues am not able to create an art that satisfy me I would ask for other artist help and if it's necessary I would pay them to create the art I would also give you a the first steps that I would do to create my game if it has a start ☆ it's finished and if it has a clover/ club ♧ I'm working on it and it has a diamond ◇I'm not in that part yet

2 Do the script to all the game♧
2.1 create the introduction of the game☆
2.2 create the principal characters of the game story wise ♧
2.3 create the secondary characters of the game story wise ♧
2.4 finish 25% of the script of the whole game ♧
2.5 finish 50% of the script of the whole game ◇
2.6 finish 75% of the script of the whole game ◇
2.7 finish 100% of the script of the whole game ◇
3. Make all the art work of the game ♧
3.1 make drafts of all the characters of the game♧
3.2 make the final version of all the characters ◇
3.3 made the first drawing of the game
(Includes first base underwear and art to count the history)◇
3.3 move to hottest drawing of the game (second and third base, nudes and more art for lore)◇
3.4 move to the boiling drawings (fourth base, anal and more fetish if the community wants it and finish the drawing of the lore) ◇
4 Other steps ◇
4.1 create a discord ◇
4.2 create a patreon or any site that would help me spread my game and gain some tips ◇
《There's would be more point here》

I wanted to ask you what of this option would you prefer most
  1. Set in 2024 or in 1924
  2. Focus in romance or corruption
  3. Ugly and Fat MC that could change his physique as history progress or same persona the whole game
  4. Some hard-core scene or a vanilla approach

Finish most of the mechanics
Hey, that is interesting. I think you have worked well to plan your asset production.

I advise taking a look here:

This is a little framework that helps you visualize, plan and edit the "core loops" or "game mechanics". it is versatile, but cannot plan every single type of game mechanics. The game youre thinking of seems to be of the managerial type, with bits of RPG... So I think in your case it will be worthy to take a look at machination because it can be used for that.

It is free by the way. you will not pay.
