Hehe there are a lot of things that I have in the code that has not been used yet. I keep track of a lot more variables than you see in the stat sheet.
Also, augh, looking at my code? That’s even less clean than my apartment! This is my first game after all, be gentle and hope you don’t mind the mess.
I don’t think your code is messy.
Actually I’m using it to teach myself how to properly code a Choicescript game. I’m still at the stage where I can’t write more than two pages without creating some game-breaking error…
Your code is straight-forward and not too complicated, so I can actually figure out how to make certain things happen.
I once looked at the code for Choice of Rebels, and that one was confusing as fuck…
Thank you! I have never looked at another game’s code at all, so I really have nothing to compare too.
I guess that’s why it’s fairly straightforward as well, since I am new at this I am doing the simplest things so I don’t mess things up. Once you get good at these things I assume you have tons of smart shortcuts that must look very confusing to someone just starting up…
@Abyss & @Interestedparty Let me just put it this way. One of my alpha testers has as her goal to make the MC into the most terrible and evil person she is able to make… maybe I will cater to her wishes, but I sure ain’t gonna tell you.
Thank you so much for your comments and corrections and suggestions and just nice words. Seriously. That’s what keeps me motivated when I feel the urge to write other things. You’re the best. Also, there’s a new chapter for you…
“Good, that shouldn’t be too hard to arrange,” Dr Mortum says as he rubs {mhis} chin thoughtfully. “Just have to be careful with the weight distribution.”

“We all have to do our dog years before striking out on our own.” The shrug is nonchalant. The look on {mhis} face less so.
Just finished the new chapter. Have to say, the doctor should become a cars salesman, because he sold me on the cape. I was originally going to do everything I could to NOT have a cape.
As a chapter I think it holds up. It’s packed, nothing is wasted, has dialog that is both entertaining and purposeful, lets you characterize your doll some more, and I had some fun designing my costume. Not sure if this is accurate, but it’s starting to sound like I’m wearing a big mecha-suit, which I don’t entirely mind even if I was planning to do most of my big moves behind the scenes.
One thing I noticed was when the doctor said he was worried about me (not sure if this is exclusive to when your doll is leading him on or not) three options showed up; be personal, be professional, and “else”. Just that, “else”. Not sure if that showed up because of the romance, but it was kinda weird. Probably want to go back to that choice and fix it.
