Game concept: A "tired" mechanic (Patreon)
Content
I was having a chat with a friend who helped me make the first two versions of Goblin Lord back when I was very new to renpy. And one of the original plans we made for the game, before I paused development, was to have a "tired" mechanic. And no, I'm not talking about a car mechanic who is exhausted, but putting in a state where the girls captured by the Goblin Lord will be tired after you have them perform a sex scene.
How would it work? For example, you make Ryuna have a lewd scene with the goblins at the ruined keep in the morning. Then time would advance to night time after this. When you visit Ryuna in her cell this time, she would be tired or exhausted. Having her tired would mean that you can't summon her outside of the ruined keep.
So why would we want this in the game? Being in a tired state would mean new lewd events different from the ones that are already there when they are not tired. Just because they are tired, doesn't mean that the goblins would leave them alone, goblins do what goblins do ;) Also this would serve as a sort of stop gap from making the same girl do a lewd scene over and over again. Imagine Ryuna being gobbed everyday by goblins, she would logically be exhausted at one point from too much lewding! This is why the goblin lord plans to have more prisoners to play with.
But this is all just a concept for now. I don't actually have a script yet for making this possible in the game but it shouldn't be hard to come up with the coding for it. I'll just be keeping this on the side for now until I've made progress on it.
What do you guys think? We have a few more concepts that we planned on putting in the game, I'll be talking about it with you guys again once I've had more time to chat with my dude to see if it's doable.
As for the game, progress is good. Lewd scenes for Naru will be done real soon, just checking and tweaking the dialogue a bit. I'll be posting an update once it's done!
