First Report: 23rd September 2020

Before we begin...

I would like to introduce myself. I just started coding for real in 2020. After learning a bit python and JavaScript, I would like to continue learning some Unity. And make games. Because I love making games. This is not the first game I'm trying to make, but hopefully this is the first game I'm going to finish. Ehem! Enough with the introduction!

The Game

This game will be nothing big, only a short visual novel. By short I mean around 20 minutes for one playthrough. To make things easier for me, I divided the game into five sections. Each section contains 2-6 choices, and only 2-3 of them will appear, depending on the previous choice the player made. Every choice will add or substract your points. And it is your points which will determine the ending. So yes, I guess this can add some replayability to this game. You would need more than 20 minutes to experience every dialogue.

There will be only two characters. I have made the sketches of them.

You will play as the red shirt guy conversing with the brown jacket guy.

How This Will be Developed

I will finish the dialogue scripts first, and after that I will make the characters and background. Only then will I get my hands dirty on Unity. Why Unity? Because I plan to make other games on Unity. This game has been started some weeks ago. I already have the story outline and each choice. The intro and "result dialogues" have been made for two choices. There will be one more "result dialogue" left for section 1.

I guess this is enough for now. I will report once a week from now on. See you!
