About twenty millennia ago, wolves and humans forged a tentative relationship in which the canids would assist their Homo sapien partners during hunting, and they in turn would provide shelter.
Fast forward twenty-thousand years, and the offspring of the ancestral wolves that fraternized with the ancient humans are still living and breathing today- in the form of “man’s best friend”. Take a look around, and you’ll see Golden Retrievers, Beagles, Chihuahuas, and German Shepherds.
Rescue humans after natural disasters, track & apprehend criminals, become a movie star, or be a (not so) run of the mill dog- the world is yours for the picking.
This idea/game is still in the first stages of development.
Hello folks, the name’s Silhuetta; a relatively new user of Choicescript. I noticed a while back that not many games, if at all, were made about the life of animals- so, I decided to make one about dogs.
Right now, I’m planning to make it into two parts, one for the juvenile years, and another for the latter.
The occupations that I’ve been considering, other than the ones listed above are: war dogs, detective dog, service dogs, herding, sled, etc. The options could go on and on…the trouble is narrowing them down to something I can manage.
More information will be put out as I do more research.
Considering my coding skills(which are few), coupled with my fragile internet connection, progress will be slow, and it may be a good while before a demo comes out.
