Thank you very much! It won't be that long before the final version of the game will be out and will answer all of those questions. :)
After the final version, I suggest implementing a feature that allows for the customization and addition of game storylines. Consider developing a separate application that enables users to create their own narratives. This app should facilitate the design of personal stories, which can be shared with and downloaded by others. This concept is similar to how Minecraft supports mods and add-ons created by users. Essentially, the app would provide tools to help users craft the stories they desire for the game.
Although your game is 3d game, im sure there are talented ones that can do better or equal of your work, ir would be beneficial since some people can request what they want or craft it on their own, raise a fundrasing for the editor or modder app and add more feature that will simplify and make ir easier for user to create stories that they want and add advance mode for coders or pro in proggramming.
And it would open a lot or possibilities and make the user imagination come to life(game), I have my idea of The MC father is just making a big facade that he is evil but in reality he is preparing for a dystopian future like nuclear war of every nation, alien invasion, demon invasion or the people that is killed from the great flood or fire(something like that) is rising from the grave because of an ancient virus or something...that will cause an zombie invasion.
Or The MC found a thing in the attic(i know there is no attic in the original game but it's story so...that's what i want lol) and he remember it was a gift from a very close friend that is madly inloved with him but they got seperate by an event or something...*suggest an event here* and the MC wear it or bring it on DR.DIANE RAMORAY'S OFFICE On the lab and she notice it and she was confused at first but she realize it and it will open a love story path for them...well i cannot spoil the whole story i want :P *Fix grammar and Make my point Straight*(THIS IS A REPLY FOR THE DEVELOPER DON'T SUMMARIZE IT AND MAKE IT CASUAL, JUST FIX THE GRAMMAR THEN MAKE MY POINT STRAIGHT AND KEEP MY ORIGINAL SENTENCE, DON'T MAKE IT LOOK LIKE A FRICKING ROBOT REPLY)Although your game is a 3D game, I'm sure there are talented individuals who could match or even exceed the quality of your work. It would be beneficial to provide a platform for users to request specific features or create content on their own. Consider launching a fundraising campaign for an editor or modder app, adding features that simplify the creative process for users while also including an advanced mode for experienced programmers or coders.
This approach would unlock a plethora of possibilities, allowing users to bring their wildest imaginations to life in the game. For instance, I have an idea where the main character's (MC) father is portrayed as evil, but in reality, he is preparing for a dystopian future. This future could involve scenarios like a nuclear war among nations, an alien invasion, a demonic incursion, or even an ancient virus that reanimates those killed in catastrophes such as a great flood or fire, leading to a zombie apocalypse.
Alternatively, the MC discovers an object in the attic (I'm aware the original game doesn't feature an attic, but bear with me as it's integral to my story) that was a gift from a dear friend who was deeply in love with him before they were separated by a significant event. When the MC brings this object to Dr. Diane Ramoray's office in the lab, she notices it, and after her initial confusion, she recognizes it, paving the way for a romantic storyline between them. I can't reveal everything about the story I have in mind, but I wanted to share this glimpse.
Thank you for the great idea. Different/alternative story lines made by fans would be awesome. We have given the chance to players to request what they wanted and I think we had a total of 20-ish requests over the past 4 years.
Aside from that, what you're asking for is incredibly difficult/time consuming to implement. I asked for extra help not that long ago and there were no takers at all. If we had loads of money, the sky is not the limit, but unfortunately that's not the case. Every minute of game play costs us a couple hours of work.
In theory Koikatsu allows for a lot of customization and that will be the best bet for everyone, the basics are not that hard but anything outside from that has quite the learning curve and is a huge time sink. There are incredibly talented people with the program though to put that in perspective we're probably talking thousands max. On top of that, there's quite a contrast in making a single awesome animation/image or requiring hundreds of them to create a mini story.
With enough time I could make some incredible things and they are there in the game but it's not possible to do that all throughout because when making games I'm basically allowed to average about 10 minutes for a single image/animation because any longer and there would not be much of an update.
Currently we're about 90% done for the final update, we're talking at least about 8000 images/animations. When it's finished I'll post an explanation of the how's and why's and what the plans are for the future. That will also explain the hurdles that come with creating games like these and why we decided to move on to another project.
In short: Awesome idea? Yes. realizable? Unfortunately not.
