Hi,
Here is an update on the project :
The project has gone through some fundamentals changes for technical and practicals reasons. Theses changes add some good and bad things. Here some details :
- The game is now a persistent multiplayer game. It will require an internet connection to play. The content will be centered for single player.
- Since it is a multiplayer game, this make modding the rule system not possible, leaving only the client (which it is in html) to be modifiable.
- The overall map system is out as it will cause some bizarre time dilatation problems between players if it is still used.
- The combat system is real time, not turn base.
- Since the game is now always in "tactical" mode, this give better possibility with npc interaction and third party vore action (npc that vore another npc)
As right now, here a rough list of what is done and working : login system, character creation, players movements, conversations between players and animations and sounds systems. Since the game is no longer in java, coding take way less time than before.
There is still some unanswered questions about this project (like what happen on a player's character death, how the xp and loot will be given, after how many connected players the game will start to lag, etc.)
As for the game rule system (playable races, list of feats, list of spells and abilities, etc.), I'm not totally sure of what it will be. The is some balance issue about it and what will be possible to do with the engine or with the available sprites. (I don't think it will be possible to play a fairy as it would be too powerful, but a half fey could be possible and would have access to unbirth as they still count as magical creatures).
The universe that the game will be will only have female predators. For male predator, I think to add a concept of alternate gender will allow male predator without breaking immersion for others. Unfortunately for male pred, this is low on my priority list and there is a good chance that it won't happen as there is a lot of content to create after the engine is done and others cool things like global world events that I want to do.
Here a screenshot of what it looks now. The 2 girls are actually 2 different players characters.
