Game idea (TF based)
🕑 Added 2023-12-15 12:44:55 +0000 UTCSo, as I said earlier, I have some game ideas, I either abandoned or put on hold.
One of those popped up recently, again.
The base idea is that it is a competitive TF game, where you fight with falling blocks!
Content would be transformations, mind control/alteration, assimilation and such.
How it works, is like in Connect 4, but with a few twists.
Every player puts down a game piece. These also change, to attack certain aspects.
Once four (or more) pieces connect, they will be taken out or converted), which then can cause cascades.
Goal is to break your opponent and make them into what you desire (usually a copy of yourself).
Core features will be:
- falling block puzzle, in a Connect 4 style
- transformation animations/idles of characters (not too many, but well it should be lewd, right?)
- 2 player fun! (where one can be CPU)
Additional essential features:
- "story" mode (single player), similar to puyo puyo where you fight different people
- local multiplayer
- remote multiplayer
This game has a much lower scope as Crysalis, thus would be done a lot quicker. Still technical issues need to be solved, art made, etc, which I still estimate to about 3 months at least (more like 6 months)
For comparison, I expect Crysalis to be at least a year, more like two years, until it fully releases. (Which includes all story content, enemies, animations, etc. The next demo should be coming out early 2024)
Why am I putting all of this out?
Well, the question here is what you'd like more.
I can concentrate on Crysalis, my main project. This will mean development on it is faster, but a full game will come in about two years.
I can concentrate on the new game for a bit and progress Crysalis slower. That means a new game release quicker, but Crysalis will take longer.
Lastly, I can try to run both projects in parallel for a bit. Both will be slower, but neither of them will be drastically slower.
As you are my main source of income, I think you also should have a say in what I am doing. So please vote in this poll and let me know what you think I should do!
P.S.: Ultimately I will decide on this myself, as there are a few more considerations to take. But I really want your input and it will guide me greatly.

The new game looks awesome, but I'd love to see Crystalis first
