I'm making a spanking game!

[zae]

Well, the title might explain the idea of this post. I am working on a spanking-themed hentai/dating-sim game, and am currently doing the various "Character is saying something" art for the main character - a teacher.

Here is one image of her.

Now, I'm not going to pretend the art quality is amazing, or even that the quality is consistent, but still, I think it'll be good enough for the finished product to be acceptable. I have just about finished all of her standard pictures (the "___ is talking" ones, not the ones from special scenes). All art is made using Daz Studio (like Poser but free!) to get the positions and proportions, then rendering in cartoon mode, before tracing over it all in Flash and adding hair, facial expressions, clothes etc.

I imagine drawing backgrounds is going to be a nightmare and a half.

Other noteworthy characters in this game will be the headmistress, the school nurse, and three female students. Here is where you guys get to add your own input! Throw me some hairstyles you'd like to see, and I might use them.

Also, when the game is complete, I will of course upload it to the site. I'm not going to be trying to sell it or anything.

That sounds like a hundred different kinds of awesome! If you need anyone to be a cheer-leader, sign me up and throw me some pom-poms!
^o^

Seriously, though, if you do need help, I'm sure there's plenty of people on the site that can give you a hand with all kinds of things... if you need proofreaders, script-editors, or even play-testers, please, drop me a line: I'd love to see what this game looks like!

Good luck!

I'd love to be a play-tester. What are you coding it in? Flash? Java? I could also write some scenarios if you want

[zae]

Actually, I'll be trying out the Script Workshop tool for Blade Engine (Visual Novel Engine). As for playtesting, well, once I have at least the basics in order, I'll pass it around for those who want to. Then, with your feedback, I can polish it off and release it here properly.

Current thoughts/issues:

* I have already put more work into this than any other "I'm going to make a game!" idea/project before, so it's looking promising.

* I actually have the whole game set out in flowchart form on a couple of sheets of paper, likewise a sequel! I even have ideas for another few in the series.

* Backgrounds will likely be a pain. If people want to help by making those, I would really appreciate it.

* I'd like to hear any ideas people have for character design - even if it's just for how they look, this can add a bit more flavour to it, some things that I haven't thought up. Likewise individual scenarios or causes of trouble. The basic idea is that you're playing a new teacher at an all-girls school, and the headmistress is disappointed with previous staff, and wants more discipline and authority exerted. The various students are going to be pushing their limits as the game goes, trying to see how nice the new teacher is. This can lead to multiple endings, based on how nice you decide to be. So if you have an idea for someone getting into trouble, let me hear it. Likewise if you have a look in mind, or a personality type or anything of the sort, let me know.

* As it stands, there'll be no music for the game. If anyone can suggest any sources of non-copyrighted music that would work for quiet, non-obtrusive background music, I'd like to know.

I had some ideas for spanking games in the past - but they were aimed more like "Princess Maker", with things like merchants selling implements, or "techniques" that are gained during the game (like: you have to obtain an ability to spank on the bare before you can actually do it).

The first incarnation eventually evolved in my story Geomancer, then I had an idea with a boarding house...

Of course, my ideas didn't have a big encompassing storyline, they were more like strategy games or straight simulations. Tell me if you're interested - I feel connection with you because you have Prinny as an avatar, and I play Disgaea these days...

What a connection, dood!

This game won't so much have unlockables - there'll generally be some degree of choice in your actions, and as the game progressions, firmer measures will be offered, but there likely won't be much in the way of special things to unlock. Perhaps allow an implement to be found, or maybe talk with someone else at the right point, and they tell you about a position that works amazingly well or something, but that's all.

Please, tell me more about your ideas, I'm always interested.

Progress: I have completed all seven pictures for the main character "speaking" images (normal, annoyed, angry, nervous, apologetic, happy and shocked). She has more art than the others (at least, that's my intent), and I'm more familiar with Daz Studio now, so hopefully they won't take as long.

[zae]

Progress: I completed the four pieces for the headmistress. She looks fairly cross a lot of the time. This is because she is.

Also, turns out Daz has some fantastic options for playing with facial expressions. You can even set the "how Asian do they look?" bar to various levels. As a result, the headmistress appears to be a little less anime-ish, distinctly Asian, generally angry, more of an adult, but with smaller breasts. She has kind of wide shoulders, which really makes her look businesslike.

[zae]

Update: I have now completed the 3 pieces for the school nurse (normal, nervous, crying), so that's 13 total!

Seems like you're doing well.
We're waiting for the results.
