(Ideas for the programmers)
Programmer story: Contains ideas for simple pages that beginners in programming can use for training.
Chess Player Story: Full of challenges and positive ideas to encourage people not to give up.
The story of a billionaire: the story of a personâs life since childhood and the beginning of the smallest projects with a capital of less than one dollar and their profits are few and lessons he learns after each experience until he becomes great, his wealth becomes great and of course the lessons of the player become many.

I came up with an idea for Extreme Ball, where your player gets to have a birthday party. [spoiler]Mike has one; which come to think of it, that means itâs also Mikaylaâs birthday as well oofâŠ/spoiler] and I am going to have at least one other character having a birthday party during the summer break I am about to dive into. So I would like everyoneâs thoughts on including an MC birthday party. It will be a little more difficult to pull off, since that means I will have to have you select a month (at least) which means it could fall during the school year. Or I can just have it as a generic birthday just before the Extreme Ball season. Let me know what you think.
To have a birthday party; or not to. That is the question
- Birthday Party!
- MCs birthday is before the season
- Not even worry about a BD party
- Other

Thanks everyone who voted. I decided to go ahead and close out the poll. I already started the coding process to incorporate a birthday party.

Welcome aboard, I think that Billionaires story would be the most interesting personally, but I think it just being a given that youâll become rich would probably undercut agency.

Iâd say itâs a good idea, but not to get super attached to it, if it adds to the story, go for it, otherwise donât.

It would be place for more social interaction and age will have a factor in some circumstances. (Not all of them are planned out)

If you or any programmer decides to implement the idea, you can change whatever you want in it.
My purpose of the story is to collect ideas that have been implemented by rich and poor people so that we can learn from their experiences.
I have read many of their stories on the internet, even if I were a programmer to make these games myself.

I come with a fixed idea, God bless you for not having it, every day I woke up I created a little piece of the universe, script, polished the story. However, discussing your insanity is not a point, but the breath of creativity that it brought.
Gross synopsis, in portuguese
O som das conversas e passos inundam o ambiente escolar â as vozes de adolescentes discutindo trivialidades na caminhada monĂłtona de todo dia â, idĂŽneo aos dias letivos discorridos, nada muda e em um momento, o sinal toca, as alunas vĂŁo as salas, os professores entram e lecionam, passados dois sinais, o intervalo Ă© liberado; toca-se outro e retornam as classes, repete-se o processo atĂ© o findar das aulas Ă s duas da tarde em ponto.
Os dias poderiam serem desprezĂveis, numa rotina ordinĂĄria de estudantes do ensino mĂ©dio, mas ao deparar numa cena oblĂqua e desconcertante que nĂŁo lhe sai da cabeça, vocĂȘ começa a analisar a relação de quatro meninas e se vĂȘ entrando numa situação delicada, que lhe pode envolver alĂ©m da salvação.

Gross synopsis, in english
The sound of conversations and footsteps flood the school environment â the voices of adolescents discussing trivialities in the monotonous walk of every day â, idoneous to the other days that have passed, nothing changes and in a moment, the buzzer goes off, the students go to their classrooms, the teachers enter and teach, after two signals, the break is released; another one rings and the classes return, repeating the process until the end of the classes at two oâclock in the afternoon.
The days are insignificant, in the normal routine of high school students, but when faced with an oblique and disconcerting scene that does not leave your head, you begin to analyze the relationship of four girls and find yourself entering a delicate situation, which it can involve you beyond salvation.
- Female protagonist and female romantic characters;
- Play the lead in a teenager at the Boas Graças boarding school in Brazil;
- Get involved in local politics;
- âRomanceâ five characters, one being a platonic âromanceâ and the other one-sided;
- Determine your destiny and that of others, be it âheroineâ, âvillainâ, something morally intermediate or one victim;
- Choose your personality, qualities, grades, clothes, attitudes, etc. that leads the narrative;
- Involve the following triggers: bullying, sexual violence, blood, death (optional), suicide (optional?), Homicide (optional?), incest, abusive relationships, dependency relationships (optional?), Romantic/sexual involvement with the aggressor (optional? Previous choices will be decisive), blackmail (also non-sexual and sexual), betrayal (optional?), Manipulation and extortion. Other triggers will be included included.
Possible difficulty and explanation
Not being a native speaker, translating into english can be extremely difficult, but not impossible; if anyone wants to help with this, not earning a dollar, but my eternal gratitude, please contact me. Forgive me literally asking for a âhandoutâ for translation, difficult times, in healthy times, I would pay.
This project would have no romance, but with socialization as its focus and which is technically a psychological terror, I decided it would be useful. Not every relationship will be reciprocal, nor healthy, be careful, if you are uncomfortable about the issues, I suggest you stop reading. Nothing will be romanticized, the narration will be in third person and the narrator will not be omniscient.

great idea. I hope you can find someone to help you implement it.

Shelving my other WIP due to a lack of interest (for now) and a lack of C-Script experience. Certain events may change that of course and Iâll still finish the first chapter.
Concepts I have are as follows, and I would love to hear your thoughts on which one should be made. Income is definitely an issue for me right now so⊠unfortunately interest is going to affect what I am writing for now.
First concept:
A fantasy world with an emphasis on realism over flashy moves and unrepentant spell slinging. This WIP would detail not only the harsher side of living in a fantasy world but also include a small handful of romantic subplots, lead characters through a relatively uncaring world and (at times) be open for exploration.
Your characterâs main goal in this setting? Survive.
Second concept:
A post apocalyptic setting after nuclear war. This one would focus a little between survival and trying to restore what was broken. However it will, as in all my work and all my work will ever be, seek to explore the realism behind these concepts as I did (am doing, will do) with Shattered Stars.
Let me know what you guys think. I know fantasy is more popular here.

Fantasy with a LOT of romance is whatâs popular on this forum⊠but never try to write a story for the fans, or else youâll fail.
Write a story that interests YOU, and if itâs good enough, itâll âconvertâ everyone else.
For instance, Tin Star is one of the all-time most popular games for people on this forum, and itâs about the Wild West and cowboys and is definitely not a fantasy setting with spells, magic, and wizards. What makes it popular isnât the theme/genre but the immersive story it tells with your input.

I agree with Sam. Write what interest you. Some of my favorite games arenât always my favorite genre but have a compelling narrative that keeps me wanting to play more than just one playthrough

You had me at apocalyptic.
Iâm going to join in on the notion about writing what feels more comfortable. I know I had two concept I thought about writing, one being the futuristic wasteland that Iâm working on now, and the other with some sort of military/mutant/desertion theme. You can already tell which one I now feel more passionate about.
Maybe try writing the intro chapters for both and get a feel for what gets your inspiration flowing the most? Writing shouldnât feel like a chore, that only serves to hinder the true potential of your story.
Make a few Pinterest boards with aesthetics? Thatâs how I got more depth into the settings and characters before I started writing.
Good luck!

Mind if I private message you some spoilers and talk about writing with ye?
Iâm definitely most comfortable writing scifi. Iâm also, however, a student thatâs about $5,000 in debt and make only about $8,000 yearly. Fingers crossed, I can pass early this semester and start as an engineer but holding pipe dreams is⊠dangerous at best.
All three of these books will be written. I donât necessarily have a âfavorite genreâ to write other than scifi. I canât write mystery or pure romance though.

I already know Iâd buy this. The setting is unfamiliar to me since I rarely play high-fantasy IF games, but this felt so clear from the beginning, I feel like it would be easy to get immersed.
Canât wait for the demo.
Also, welcome to the community!
