I'm looking for help for a text based with image supplement Java game. Pretty much anybody with any amount of experience/skill set can help. My idea is for a magic/attack system and a town filled with npc's all of which the player can enter spanking relationships with (despite how this sounds, this won't be too difficult). I have already created the interface.

Let me know if you have questions or would like to help.

1) Artists

2)Game plot ideas

3) Gameplay ideas

3)Town layout (locations of NPCs, stores, etc)

4) Dungeon layout (location of enemies, chests, boss)

5) Character descriptions (players, NPCs, enemies, etc)

6) Java programmers

Well, first, before starting anything, it would be nice to decide what's possible with a Java engine.
I don't know much about that, but if it's a browser game, it shouldn't be too long, because I'm fairly certain I'm not the only one erasing all his cookies between each session. And since it's mainly about spanking, it shouldn't too complicated either.

I dunno, I think a Recettear-like dungeon crawler might be fun to play while being easy enough to not be too frustrating. But we should have a real team before starting the work, so let's brainstorm for now.


From my own experience, when I play an eroge (I consider spanking as eroge, because usually you're not playing for fun but for those specials scenes), I get tired by the game quite easily, or sometimes I just don't want to play, so a replay or a scene selection mode would be great.

take a look at lightning warrior raidy. It's a simple dungeon crawl, where all the "monsters" are cute girls in monster costumes and you instead of killing them beat them into submission and then punish them in various sexual ways. Not only do you fool around with people in the various towns, you also get to fool around with your enemies as an added incentive. The real gem of the game is the boss battles, which culminate in the best scenes of the game, and actually have an alternative scene if you loose, wherein the main character has to submit. It's very light-hearted and has a few spanking scenes. If anyone is going to do a spanking rpg, I think this game would be an amazing source of inspiration.

More on topic, I might like to be part of a development project (depending on what you decide to make of course). I'm not a native english-speaker, but I can still write a bit and maybe do some artistic work. I do some sketching now and again, but my abilities may not live up to expectations, so I'm just throwing it out there.

Great thanks! I am kind of busy until this weekend, and then I will talk more about what we can do. With java applets, you actually can run them offline if you have a java applet runner (free and multi-platform) which can include a save file. But good thinking though about scene/chapter select. I actually was thinking about dividing the game into small-ish chapters. In my experience the longer and more ambitious the project is, the less likely it will get done.

I actually have played a little Raidy. It was quite interesting. Not being a native English speaker does not seem to be a big deal to me. Artwork would be great, and there is always stuff to do. This weekend I will post a picture of my basic engine and we can decide how to tweak it from there.

I know my way around java, and I'd be happy to help with programming.
Never worked on a game before though, so I'd probably have to work on a 'point me in the right direction and push me' basis.

[Ai404]

Well, if it's a Raidy-like game, it shouldn't be too hard. Just put in some random numbers to decide what the enemy will do, and the rest is text and simple math.
I think I can come up with a plot, as well as designing the level, but we could use someone with more experience in spanking fiction to assist. And since I'm mostly used to Ren'Py (dunno what kind of language it's using) and Quest (using its own language), I can't program for shit unless explained. And if it fails, well, I can still proofread, but don't count on me too much, my Internet is pretty unstable, so I can't download anything.

Thanks again to everybody! Here are some of the engine images I have created. As you can tell, I have prioritized utility over layout quality.
gallery/image_page.php?album_id=335&image_id=5045
gallery/image_page.php?album_id=335&image_id=5044

Here is a general list of what needs to be done. If anybody wants to help just post what you want to do (you don't need to ask permission to take a job). If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

1) Art - no skill minimum is required
-Main character art (I'm thinking a male and female option, but anything is okay)
-Generic enemy art (of your choosing of course, can consider creating a 'defeat image' for the character
-NPC art (of your choosing of course, can consider creating a spanked image/ giving spanking image for the character, based on your preferences)
-Boss art

2) Plot
For level 1, I was generally thinking of 1 town (Happy town) and 1 dungeon (Sad mountain), with a wandering main character that needs to defeat the boss for some reason.
-Create character names, npc names, boss names
-background stories and motivations

3) Game design
I have created an RPG system where each character has a fire,ice,shock,stab,slash, and crush attack and defense attribute. Player and enemies will take turns attacking based upon their speed attribute. If anybody has any suggestions let me know.

-layout for town and dungeon
(e.g. Square B3 has 1 NPC (Jake the Lumberjack), 1 shop (weapon shop), exits (west, east, north) ;;;; Square B4 has....
-new Enemy/boss characteristics (name, max hp, 6 attack attribute (see above), 6 defense attributes, speed, list of attack names/ attack base damage / attack attributes (e.g. fire, crush)
-new NPC characteristics (name, love for the player (-10 to 10), fear of the player(-10 to 10), submissive tendencies(-10 to 10), dominant tendencies (-10 to 10), dialogue responses to greeting, flirting, threatening (and some other character interactions we can work out)
-new Weapon/item properties (name, description, bonuses to stats, attributes)

4) Programming
at the moment I can't think of anything that needs to be done. Something will probably come up though. If you can think of something that can help, always feel free to mention it.

Okay... The first thing we need to do is, in my opinion, to polish the game a bit. Getting rid of those arrows everywhere, creating a "real" game menu, instead of a "choose weapon, choose attack, and click on attack". Once we have something fun to use, the rest will be easy.


Plot: we can still start with the traditional "my girlfriend has been abducted by the lesbians sadist witches from the mountain" or something like that. It'll be something to polish later.

Gameplay: I dunno, those mechanics look like they're based on luck rather than real skill. I mean, if I got your stats right, each boss has different defenses for each attack. In term of game, it'll mean "try everything, find what works, and spam it".

Spanking: I don't really know how we can incorpore that in the game without being cliché as hell. The important thing is that we need to cover a lot of thing, given how broad spanking is, I highly doubt that a game when you're always spanking the same girl will be interesting. So creating different implements might be useful.

Town: Well, save for the obvious shops, I doubt we can make anything useful in it. Threatening shop owners might be fun anyway, à la Mass Effect ("Hey everyone! That shop discriminates against the poor!").


But we could use some better art, to be frank.

[lowmobile]

Haha, I never claimed to be an artist. But I don't think that's a problem, the way I see it, all art is welcome.

Menu: I don't think a traditional menu would work well in this situation. Also making a glossy menu is a graphics issue that can take long to make and we need to focus on making something that works and can be completed first. If the worry is ease of use, I can create keyboard shortcuts for commonly used options.

Plot: That's fine, but it may not be the best idea for the main character to be in a relationship since he/she will be making spanking relationships with npcs in town. Implements is a good idea

Gameplay: there is a mechanism already in the game to prevent spamming (your speed slows with repeated use of a move). The primary skill in the game is acquiring abilities and weapons, though, like most rpgs

Towns: towns will be the locations of npcs, who the player can enter spanking relationships with

Regarding the story, why does it have to be a typical jrpg plot. If it's going to be an ecchi (pornographic?) game about spanking, why not try to make the plot center a bit more around spanking.

Same thing regarding gameplay, when making a spanking rpg, why not make an rpg with spanking as a mechanic? It's not like we can't work spanking into just about anything, and people have even done spanking as combat (just look at the spanking supplements for pen and paper games that some of the members of aotk1 and 2 have made).

If you make a dungeon crawl rpg with the possibility for a little spanking on the side, it's not really a game about spanking. For that to work, I think the spanking relationships should be a very integral part of the plot so as to feel essential and not like something that's just happening as a side attraction next to the main action. If on the other hand, spanking was the main action, it would feel much more justified in being there to begin with.

Sorry if I'm rambling here. Really need to go to sleep. Anyway, it all depends on the kind of game you want to make and how you want your fetish to feature in it. If you want an rpg with a cool story and monster-killing gameplay with the added bonus of spanking (or being spanked) when off duty, that's cool and all, but I wouldn't really call it a "spanking game" as much as "an rpg that features spanking".

I am obviously just spouting opinions and drawing conclusions here. I'm not trying to criticize or impose my own ideas on your game, but it would be cool if you could clarify what you want out of the game and how to go about it.

end of longwinded post. Now sleep.
