Status Update 1/1
Added 2021-01-01 19:14:06 +0000 UTCIt's a new week and a new year, what's Apollo Seven Games going to be up to in 2021? Same stuff I've been up to in 2020 I guess. Let's talk about Naked Ambition for a bit.
I've said before that .6 is the start of act 2, but what does that mean? Once you're past .6, the story really gets going and really starts branching. The game becomes less about the generic buildup of the previous weeks and more about the story of this specific playthrough. The Princess will start doing things and talking to people that are much more unique to the playthrough you're on. That includes playthrough specific characters.
Like this aggressive looking young lady. The Princess will meet her in one of the three end game crisis scenarios. There are two major branching points in Naked Ambition's story. The character the Princess pairs up with, and the end game crisis. The character determines the set of endings and the end game crisis will determine what the big problem the Princess has to solve to get to those endings is. It's basically a final boss, a series of hard checks the Princess will have to pass to save the kingdom from ruin.
For example, the Princess could be romantically involved with the Vizier and have foreign invasion as the end game crisis. That means she would have to defeat the foreign army to survive her final days before the regency council votes on who will be the ruler and once she does, she'll get one of the Vizier specific endings. The characters the Princess can end up with is essentially any character who has a sprite, so there's a lot of different possibilities.
That's all for this week, I need to go work hard on making what I outlined above a reality. As always, thanks for your continued support.
