Thanks very much to everybody who provided their thoughts on the previous journal. The thoughts provided were very helpful from both perspectives. I'm still unsure what I will be doing in the end, since I haven't actually gotten to that point yet, but now I have a much better idea of why I would be doing/not doing it.

For instance, I had mostly forgotten -why- I made your race selectable from the get-go. I didn't want to make humans "special", because that was too common and cliche'd. But, if I do want to keep the race selectable, I will have to consider a better way of telling the story from the multiple starting points, which would be a unique challenge as a writer in its own right. Or, if I did go with the human start, I'd want to come up with a more interesting reason than just "that's what the player already is, so it's easier".

So, again, thank you all for the input, it was much appreciated!

On another note, I remembered I have a project that I started 3 years ago and never had the time to fully develop. A Nimin boardgame.

I was using Vassal to play boardgames a lot with friends at the time, and I thought it would be fun to create my own Vassal module for Nimin. Vassal is a program to emulate boardgames online and can be coded to automatically set up pieces and do stuff, so I was going to give it a shot. But I never got around to doing the coding, especially as my play group lost interest in Vassal for other things.

However, I did write up most of the rules and :usericonchichi: arted up some of the key assets very nicely. There's still a need to write up the Event, Item, and NPC cards, along with some of the art for those cards, and actually draw the game board, but the core of the game is already there.

The game is essentially a pawn-based move-around-the-board type of game, where you roll for movement and go in whichever direction you want. You start as human, with variable penis, boob, and vagina sizes, the ability to grow a belly with pregnancy, and alternate races that you can transform into if you hit the right events/items. When you move to certain spaces, you can draw event cards that alter the game, or you can interact with stationary npcs, or go into a town to buy items from the store, or masturbate/interact with other players. There's a bit of Munchkin influence, as well as some other games. It's basically a sexual rpg and the goal is to be the first to get to the target SexP mark, which is set based on how long of a game you want to play. And like Munchkin, the game is very modular, to make each game unique, and allows for subsequent expansions quite easily if desired.

The reason I'm bringing this all up now is... Does anybody want to work on it with/for me?

I am not going to complete this on my own anytime soon, but if somebody wanted to do the coding in Vassal or actually create a physical version of the boardgame, I'd be glad to team up to finish it if people are actually interested.

I am not looking for idea people to help create the concept of the game, I've already got it largely fleshed out. I'm looking for people that want to actually bring the game itself into existence. This is probably easier than my attempts to find writers for the original game and won't actually take up much of my time either, if anybody did volunteer. Heck, if people just wanted something they could print out, cut apart, and play, I'd be up for filling that in too.

Just thought I'd check since this thing is otherwise rotting away on my drives :)
