Quick progress update for my WIP Presidential Sim Game!
After seeing the below comment by Valixon, I did a bit of digging and found another Presidential Simulation game titled “The Oval Office” by @Spyder.
That game can be found here if anyone’s interested in checking out their work:
Incidentally, we both quoted President Lyndon B. Johnson in our prologues!
Obviously, these two names “In The Oval” and “The Oval Office”, at least in my opinion, are far too similar. So, because of that, I’ve decided to take up the new working title: “The People’s House”!
I wanted to provide a quick update and thank everyone who has shown support and sent warm wishes and suggestions! (Especially @11110 who has given a lot of incredible suggestions on how to improve the involvement of the Judicial Branch later in the game).
Progress has been coming along really well, and I’m now at just over 10,000 words (!), only being at about 1,500 a few days ago. I’ve been able to go back and flesh out the opening prologue to the story much more so it feels less like a Q & A and more like a real introduction to the character you create.
Ideally, my next update will be with a demo released. I can’t say for sure exactly how long it will take as I don’t want to rush my writing and compromise quality to release a demo faster. In any event, thank you all again! Hopefully, there’ll be a functioning demo released in a week’s time.
