Started Coding Dew-Valley Star
🕑 Added 2022-12-11 04:26:11 +0000 UTCI finished another woman image with clothing. Abigail in the mines. I also started some basic coding to see if a 'game' would even make sense. So far, I've got 4 basic areas: River for Fishing, and Haley visits around Noon. Forest for Foraging, and Leah visits in the morning. Caves for Mining, and Abigail visits in evening. Library for ...research?, and Penny visits during day. It takes 1 hour to move or do any actions (forage, mine, fish, research) and what you find is based on your Skill, Luck and depth (Mines would be levels descended, forest would be how deep you ventured, and fishing is depth of line.
The 4 women show up at specific times of the day, and the rest of the time you forage, fish, mine to find items. For the basic game, every action you do would be a way to get items for dating women, and progress through their scenes. I am planning to make what items the women like be random (it will change every game) and scaled, so the first item for each women would be easy to find and the last, very hard to find. I might include their male friends as well as dating rivals, and perhaps you'd only have enough time to date one or two women per playthrough before they get married to their friend instead. Although, I also might add cheating, so you could still date them after marriage. That's far off, anyways.
Right now, I've got the cave working and rocks/gems randomly appear on the screen, based on cave level and increase the more days you wait. You can click to collect them and your basic inventory is working. Here's a gameplay image of Abigail, in the cave on floor 65, with my mouse-over a diamond :
I still need to add monsters to the cave to slow level progression, but could also just start with something simple like Energy limits. Anyways, once I get the mines fully working, I'll break up the Abigail clothing into removable layers, (and draw her jacket, and properly shade her) and add giving her items to gain hearts... so I can balance the dating progression as well. All-in-all, It's possible I could have a very basic testing version by month-end.

My final goal is to include all 6 women, but I plan to finish the women sequentially, so patrons have something to play during the development stage.

Are you just going to have those four ladies for now with others to come later
