Hello Choice of Gamers!
I am new and have recently been playing around with Choice Script and decided that I would like to try making a game of my very own. As a result of me playing around with the script I can now do the basics: Stat screen, choices, fake choices (ugh) and I do have an idea I want to do.
The story takes place in the most populous urban agglomeration in The World, Anno 2097. (Yes, this is Sci-Fi) You start a normal metropolitan, but as the story continues you will enter the police academy and become a beat cop, working for a merciless and cruel government. If you want to uphold the law, use your powers for personal gain or break the law when it is the right thing to do, is up to you. All choices will have pros and cons however so you won’t feel forced to take a certain path.
Through your time is a beat cop you will eventually become a detective and uncover a plot, which this game revolves around. Of course the story needs to be great, but I am going to focus on immersion and really take in the universe, cybernetic gangs, illegal fighting, clubs – a lot of things you can experience throughout the city.
You will be able to play as both male and female with same-sex romance choices, I have not yet decided how explicit the sex scenes are going to be, and hopefully you can help me decide on that. What I really want from you guys are ideas, names – cool scenes you’d like etc!
For example, what should the police be called? Enforcers, Peace Keepers, Coppers, Brassies?
Other than the police, I need names for:
Currency
Country
City
Government (a corporation maybe?)
Drugs
Pieces of Technology, I want to have a unit much like a pit boy and every citizen should have a chip in their right wrist, used for almost everything.
I also need help for the stats, I know how to make them, just not what stats would be best. Right now I am thinking about something like:
Duty vs Freedom
Justice vs Corruption
A short description of your character, using the values from the two stats above
Intellect
Combat
Firearms
Charisma
Reputation (This can either be good or bad reputation)
A short description explaining what his reputation is among his peers, the government, the gangs and the metropolitan
Health
Money
I will start work tomorrow, just wanted to write this up before I go to bed, the title is just a placeholder, unless you like it of course.
Cheers!
