The big WINNER of the poll! (and also a new poll) lol

After analyzing the survey, (see screenshot below!)

I am pleased to announce that the game will focus on the theme of...

Thank you for your votes! Thank you also for your ideas. Please note that those who submitted ideas that were not selected will still be thanked and mentioned (via credits or elsewhere, hehe) in the game!

Before presenting today's survey topic, I would also like to remind you that in the game I would like to create, the plot will center around the character, and the flu will not be so much an apocalypse as a virus affecting certain specific people (I don't know why yet, maybe people who are allergic to pollen, haha).

Why? I like the interactions between men and women in this kind of game; I think it's the most fun part, but if everyone stays locked up at home like during COVID, I'm afraid we'll be missing out on a lot of funny interactions. I'm still thinking about it.

Also, making the transformation aspect of the game universal would deprive the player and their avatar of the distress they would feel at being practically alone in this case.

In reality, I also liked this concept because it gave me an interesting narrative lever where I could transform other characters during the plot to revitalize certain moments, break friendships, or create surprises!

But the game, even if some people will be changed during the experience, will mainly revolve around the protagonist.

I say this because I read a very interesting comment under one of my previous posts that talked about the potential problem of creating a story where transformation has become feared but, above all, commonplace. If you're reading this and you posted that comment, you'll know who you are, and thank you for your great insight! :)

Okay! Now let's talk about the character!

I created four different characters. The idea is that one of them will obviously be selected, but that they will be transformed during the adventure! I'm not going to spoil what they'll look like on the other side of the genre spectrum, but you can expect to see what you've already seen in my posts!

I also previewed comments suggesting that I make them all playable but selectable from the start, and let the player decide for themselves who they want to play! I like this idea, but maybe in a more advanced version of the game. If I have to generate four times the content at the start, I'm afraid it will take me ages. I'd rather have the full experience before making a decision on that!

So my question is, which of these four do you prefer, (whou would you play?) and which of these four do you think would make the best female? ;)

You can vote for more than one!
