SOULCOOM™ 0.6.10


Hello,

A new update is available.

VISUAL :
+ IIPA Droplet Smashing Minigame

---

We have begun testing out our dialogue battle system and have managed a design that merges the dialogue with what our game has become known for, our fantasy physics.

Last week on the Patreon I covered the inspiration behind the dialogue system in our game. The Dialogue system is based on the a book called the Celestine Prophecy. It's about how there are only 4 kinds of social energy exchange between all humans. We are developing our dialogue system around this creative theory using what the author called: "Control Dramas".

---
Each 4 of the control dramas here are represented by a droplet with their respective symbol:

  1. Intimidator:
    Strengths: Commands authority, instills fear.
    Weaknesses:
    Creates hostility, lacks genuine connection.
  2. Interrogator:
    Strengths:
    Gains information, maintains control.
    Weaknesses:
    Generates discomfort, may alienate others.
  3. Woe Is Me (formerly Poor Me):
    Strengths:
    Elicits sympathy, receives support.
    Weaknesses:
    Can be manipulative, fosters dependency.
  4. Aloof:
    Strengths:
    Maintains mystery, avoids conflict.
    Weaknesses:
    May appear unapproachable, lacks emotional connection.

---

In our game, we plan to use these 4 Power Dramas to color our NPC's personalities and devise a dialogue based countering system using the power dramas. We will also be using this system as the premise for our dialogue battle system.  You may have seen me throwing around an earlier version of this:



However, this week, things have changed again for the better, the mechx keep improving and gaining more depth the more we spend time on this. To learn what this image is about then please head on over to the Patreon. However if you would like to access this testing area without an explanation you're welcome to by hitting;
