Well folks, I hate to give updates too close together, but there are some key developments that I have to talk about. To put it plainly, there has been a change of plans. After hard consideration, I have decided to shelve the game I have been working on. I plan on returning to it in the near future, but for now my sights are elsewhere.
Making it has been a struggle to say the least. I never feel like I know what I'm doing, and though I have all of these ideas, it is incredibly difficult to bring theme to fruition. The main reason for this is that I am simply making something too big. So, with all that said, I am now developing a smaller game! I think the whole process on my other game will be much easier if I get something more manageable under my belt first, so now instead of stumbling in the dark, I have something very clear to work towards.
So without further ado, introducing:
Mr. Bolognese's Laughter Spectacular!
Play as Cheese-Man (left), a struggling stand-up comedian, as you try to rise in the world of comedy. Encounter a cast of odd characters in your struggle to be #1, such as Donny Gustaphalo (right). The game will consist of levels, with each level being a new comedy club.
You will be presented with a number of options when on stage, all pertaining to the kind of joke you tell. You will have to play to the type of audience you have, with different types of people liking different types of jokes. Your score will also be affected by the things you purchase, such as outfits and equipment. The game has multiple endings, and is centered around a key moral choice that you will have to struggle with for the duration of the game. Right now, I'm looking at each playthrough being around 20 minutes.
My goal is to be done with it by December 17 of this year. Honestly, it's nice having a deadline, and 18 weeks seems reasonable I guess.
