The start of the plot

Hello everyone,
after my previous post i realized that making an exact copy of a game is meaningless (which is what i have been doing up till now). A game should bring something new to the table. This can be gameplay, graphics or a nice story. Since I really liked the gameplay of the original game, I have decided to write my own story. I have never written anythig serious before, but i will give it my best.

At the moment i am still coming up with ideas for the main plot. When this is done and coded which might take quite some time) I will try to add several side stories. If anyone has some nice ideas send them and i will take them in to consideration.

Redoing everything

Hello everyone,

it has been a long time since my previous post, even longer than normal. As you might remember the game was nearing completion. The main thing that was left to do was to create content. At this point I lost interest in this project. This happens quite often with me when the only thing left to do is to create content. I had made a way to create content for the game, but it did not work great. Another thing that i disliked was the GUI. I wrote it myself as an extension of Java Swing. Again it worked, but it looked bad and it was not very effiecient.
Some time ago i decided to redo everything. It is not a very big program, but it took me some time since i can't work on it the entire day. This time i am using Java Swing and not the stuff that i wrote myself. It does not look that great yet, because i focused on functionality, but i think that it will be easier to make it look decent. I also hope that it will be easier to create content.
I hope that the ones that were following this project will like the new look or atleast see its potential. Please leave your comments. I am still looking for a nice name for the game.
Download and run it.

Improvement

Hello everyone,

Found some time today to work on the game. I made some progress finishing up the mechanics.
- You can create events. At day 100 an event will happen which finishes the game (you can overwrite it and not stop the game. There is also a new/first event at day 20 (make sure you are smart enough).
- I have also made it possible to create girls. Each girl can have up to 6 different date locations.
- Fixed a bug where every day you would get the notice that something was stolen.

There are only a few things left to do to finish the game. The most important thing is to add some more content/some sort of a story line and the second is to make a tutorial so that you can create your own content. The rest is fixing bugs and adding some small things.

everything still works the same. just run the jar file and select the game folder when it asks for a file.

New Version (v2)

Hello everyone,

Progress has been made. I have come a long way with finishing the game building mechanism. It should be possible for anyone to create new locations. I will post a guide on how to do this later. You can also look at what is there already and try to copy it. There are still some things that need to be done. I thought that it would be nice if other people can make their own girls to date. So i will try to make something that extra girls can be made. I still have to do the special days and I have to create an ending for when the 100 days are over.

Here is the new version:

it still works the same. Run the Jar file and when it asks for a file, choose the game map.
There was a small bug which i fixed. it is in the new version.

Back home

Hello everyone,

I mentioned in my previous post that I was going to put alot of work into the game, because school was over. This did not happen. A short summary of time gone by. I found a job for the summer. It was very simple work but with a time limit (cant find the right word in english). I had to collect 180 packages per hour and I had to bring them to the trucks. I was to slow and I got fired. Then I decided to go on holidays with my parents. I got back yesterday. Luckily there is still some time left before school starts again and I will try to work hard on the game and get something done.

Hello everyone,

Today I had my last exam for this year. yeey. I am going to try to put more time into making the game now that I have more time. Over the last two weeks I have only done some small code fixes. Nothing new. However I plan to release new stuff in the near future.

New Version

Hello everyone,
Lots of people have been visiting this blog. Somewhere between 50 and 60 views everyday. Thank you for your interest in my project. I have a new version ready. https://sites.google.com/site/oranjekrulstaarten/download/Game.zip?attredirects=0&d=1
it works the same as last time.
Now you can go on a date. You can meet the girl at the shoppping mall. By interacting with her you will increase your relationship with her. At first she will only talk to you but later you will be able to give her flowers (make sure to buy some first). Next you can take her on a date to the park. If you keep investing in the realtionship she will let you kiss her and if you have paid enough attention you might be able to get her into bed.
The required relationship values are randomly picked by me. If you think that it takes to long or if it goes to fast let me know and I will change it. Also if you find an error please let me know so i can fix it.

Good luck
