Gibier Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 STICK AROUND Type RPG / Grinding / Permanent choice / Choice Matter/ life simulation / D&D-Like / Dark Humor / Comedy / Immersive / Classless / Self Aware Class Class?? Why would a life simulation game have class? Nah there's no class in Stick Around just choose the color of your stick and the gameplay will affect your character by itself! Character At the beginning of the game the player will have to select his character's color. He will also spawn with few items: ID card, money and a wallet. Then the player will on his own to live his life in the world of Stick Around. Choice Choose between many jobs to get money or sell your organs to get money faster. ''Level up'' your character's RPG stat (IQ, Luck, Stealing, Agility, Pick locking) the way you want or don't Be a friendly stick or an evil one and forge yourself a reputation to get advantage IG (discount, access to locked place). Become a thief, Cook, seller, policeman, lumberjack.... Eat food and drink water else your character will die eventually. You can buy them at the store and you can find some around the city if you have enough chance (table, desk, trash....) NPC Learn to know the NPC around the city, become friend with them to have their phone number to be able to call them. Else you still become enemies. Make them learn the truth about the would is in fact a game and make them go insane. But be warned actions have consequences and you may ended killing NPC permanently. Systems - Casio - - Growing up - - Morality & Reputation - - Food and Water surviving - - Jobs available all around the city - - Smartphone to call, see bank, buy stuff ''online'' - - Radio with 6 radio stations with 5 songs each - - School grade to make your character smarter - - Prison where your character can spend few night - - Luck, IQ, Agility, Pick locking skill level that will be taking effect on the gameplay - Many more Images Spoiler Note about the game I've been making bad games for more than a decade mostly DBZ game (Let's be honest most of them aren't good). But now seems like I'm presenting you yet another bad game out of boringness. Making game is time consuming and a good way to use your creativity. Let's see where my and the engine's limitations will bring us Currently their is not game but most of the core variable and systems core have been made. I'm waiting to be sure that I'm satisfied with the spriteset before creating paperdoll and NPC. The next Cyberpunk 2077 promising everything but deliver nothing? Planning for the future Spoiler I'll be editing this part later Casino: Will have his own currency, shop and few games (guess and luck) Shopping center: Will have two floors, many shop and jobs possibilities Prison: Will have his own gameplay content (don't wanna spoil it xd), the only resource available to grind is rocks. Church: The church is a cult. Gibier's cult members will have easy pass on few annoying features such as prison, hospital bill... It's going to be hard to get inside the cult, the character will need a high reputation and a high alignment (+/-) Forest: Forest where the players can fish and cut trees. The character will need to have his fishing permit.

Gibier Posted April 10, 2023 Author Share Posted April 10, 2023 [UPDATE] Tree: - 4 types of trees (only one made yet) - Cutting trees in the city will increase police notoriety - Cutting trees will increase woodcutting skill Luck: - Everything in the game is randomly increase: stat gain, skill point gain, notoriety gain, alignment... - Every time something random is calculated the character's luck will increase by 1 point. - Luck level influence the randomization basically the more you play the more you should be lucky. Notoriety: - When the player get 100 notoriety point in one of the 4 npc groups they will chase you. Then it drop by 5 points each 2 min. This way already added in the previous update but couldn't be tested until now. - The gang will only stop chasing you when the play will have 0 notoriety point. - Notoriety doesn't start dropping until the group want to kill/arrest you Being chased by the police is not something you want cause it take 40 min of gameplay before they will stop trying to kill you. This is the first update that add some real gameplay. AriusII and Artheios 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibier Posted April 15, 2023 Author Share Posted April 15, 2023 [Update] Growing up: Now there's teen sprite and adult sprite. The players will begin with a teen sprite then when the character arrive at the age of 21 the become an adult. (Currently the chracter's sprite doesn't change cause there's now conditional branch for which sprite the player have) Legacy: Each character can die multiple times but can also die permanently so each character are now a family legacy. A family tree will have 10 characters. The stat and most thing will get reset except (reputation/bank/owned hourse and other map oriented event) IQ drop: If you do nothing to increase or maintain the character's brain then he/she will loose one IQ point when the IQ get at -1 then the character will loose 1 IQ level (55 is the minimum level) Book to increase IQ: There's 9 books which can be read 3 times each per 15 minutes. Map: Discord: I've made a basic discord server. I'll adding more stuff to it later https://discord.gg/bmZJa7psXA Vio and Artheios 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibier Posted April 16, 2023 Author Share Posted April 16, 2023 [Update] Character creation: Now the player will have to choose his stickman color the first time the character enter the game instead of in the character creation. Eventually the player will be stuck in a mirror until he/she chooses the character's color. Also this will allow stickman to change color with chirurgic change. Spoiler Class: Class are now base on the character's age and visual condition (missing body members). First IG connection: I had to change the system a bit to make it works with the stickman color selection. Growing up: With the new class and character creation system the character's sprite will grow up at 21 years old. Birthday presents: Since the character grow it just make sense to give characters birthday presents at their birthday. Each 3 days spend in IG time the player will get random items that he/she accept or refuse. This will be useful in prison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
