^ That second comic was hilarious.
^ What he said, me thinks Bezzy might have a rival Boomboxer in mind 😛
😀 Wow, didn't think anyone would care about a non-tease Bezzy comic lol.
Rival you say? :teehee:
Of course you have to remember the Boomboxer race can't compare in height and endowment to most other races, so there's bound to be some breast and height envy in certain individuals.
Ahem...and just between you and me, Bezzy might've been stretching the truth on some of those declarations lol.
First of all, I'm loooooooooooving the screenshots. The ones with the slime girl looks amazing. The use of facial expressions adds a lot to the dialogs in something like an RPG, not to mention that all of that light-blue chubiness looks just great :lol. Also, that makes me wonder, what will the "Curl-Up" function do? Will it be like a "resist" mode, where you brace yourself to stand the coming tickles, or more like "I give up, take me!" mode like the Surrendering in TOG?
😀 Glad you're loving the screenshots! More will come as I get more done (though you'll be limited since I'm not showing you the whole game
😉)
Glad you like the Plump Slime too! Isn't she just so cute and happy? Jus wanna pinch her here and there. I've got a fun little thing planned for her that I'm sure you'll all enjoy.
Curl-Up is indeed TLI's "Defend" function. Seemed the proper thing to name since most people, when tickled, tend to scrunch and curl up to block vulnerable spots. I do currently have a Surrender skill like ToG, but it'll probably be taken out before release since I feel it might be too clunky for my game (Nadya turns to the party and goes, "OK GUYS! We're gonna just lose on purpose and get tickled out of our minds forever. K?") Not to say I didn't love the option in ToG (again, pre-Twin's Book and system revamp I had only an Adventurer), but it was always just the hero who went submissive and not a whole party.
The avatar for that character looks great too. If that will be our main character, it'll be a delight to see her laughing 😀
As for those maps, they look like they take some serious work. Something that's been great in TOG and in Screamer's games is the fact that there are different locations, each one holding its own "secrets" and "features", which seems to be the case here. Speaking of which... "The Temple of Joy"... hmmmmm, I wonder what makes it so joyful. We'll see, I guess 😛
Well thanks, but you haven't even seen Nadya's full portrait yet lol. She'll be tickled, oh yes indeed, but the choice will often be up to you whether she is tormented or not.
Not sure what you mean on them taking some serious work. You mean to navigate? Shouldn't be too bad, but I do have secrets already in a few of them. Dungeons in particular are best for secrets.
As for the temple of joy - well - :teehee: you'll just have to play the game now, won't you?
And I just KNEW that I couldn't be the only one with more than fond memories for the Bonus Dungeon at the end of the Cackling Cave. Personally I always thought that what was great about it was that there were both a tickler and a ticklee dungeon (not to mention new scenes that you didn't get in the game). In TCC both were awesome, but I allways thought that the 'lee one had some really more inspired scenes.
Well, It's pretty much a given now that TLI will have the this bonus for everyone. I wouldn't be surprised if every game from now on has it since it has a good bit of support from the community.
I know that this is your project and all (duh) but that may be a part where some of us could collaborate, since it's just writing scenes that not necessarily had to do with the story of the game. I remember Deus asking for some help for the last updates on that matter, and it turned out fine as I remember.
...
No, I'm good, thanks for the offer. Don't really need help writing anything haha. Would hate to have one scene be a small story in itself, and another be 3 paragraphs of KOOTCHIE KOO and HAHAHAHAHA NO STOP HAHAHAHA. At the very least, all writing will match and be uniformly bad or good lol.
But you know what? How about I pull a Screamer and ask you guys what scenes or events or whatever you'd like in TLI. Because I thought that was really, really awesome of him to ask the community for things to add.
So what sort of scenarios would you guys like - within reason? Most environments have already been decided and can encompass a lot of scenes, HOWEVER - please note that Illusia isn't technologically advanced anywhere. Medieval would be good. You'll have things like wooden ships, stocks, castles, trap doors and of course magic, but you won't have electronic tickle machines, hover cars or refrigerators to store whipped cream
😛
Ah, Bezzy... Not only you're a tease extraordinaire, you seem to have quite some personality as well. Which makes me wonder... in case of encountering yourself in a dungeon where aaaaaaall the rest of the character from the game are... would you rather be the tickler or the ticklee? And why?
Sounds like a question to Bezzy. I'll add this to the ever growing pile!
Oh, and I almost forgot! You're releasing a freaking DEMO first?! AWESOOOOOOOOME!!! I hate to ask about dates, but... WHEN?!
Sorry, I had to get that out of my system.
Looking forward to more updates. Keep the awesomeness coming! :lol
Yes, I'm working on the demo portion right now. It will be released
Soon™.
I will give fair warning and say the demo will NOT include the party-making phase (and thus no private events). Though you might see a girl or two for another tease hehe.
