I would have been interested if they had been traditional cool dragons living in their caves with treasure hoards and shit but this looks just bad
can't wait to see it get greenlit! [sp]fuck sake[/sp]
To be honest, I was legitimately expecting to see something like Smaug. Definitely did not expect to see a pokemon layered in front of pictures of someone's house that was put through a photoshop filter. [QUOTE=Zezibesh;46638705]I would have been interested if they had been traditional cool dragons living in their caves with treasure hoards and shit but this looks just bad[/QUOTE] That would be great. The main character would be some faceless peasant, and you'd have to go into different dragon's keeps and make them swoon for you and give you all their gold, which you use to fund an army. Then you take over the medieval world with a massive army of mercenaries and a harem of dragons.
Trying the demo. Godspeed, Facepunch.
I'd actually be interested in a game where you try to befriend a dragon so you can steal all of his hoard and you have to juggle between making the big dumb dragon believe you're his friend and establish a plan with your bandit party to steal all of his shit. This looks like garbage though.
This seems like someone trying to grab onto that Pigeon Boyfriend game.
At first I laugh when I see a wacky game, but then I realise "people are gonna copy this for about 50 times"
Nice.
this is retarded
this is retarded and i want this
Something something dragon age inquisition joke something something..
The dragon has a porno mag called "Raunchy Reptiles" I'm not even two minutes in. Also, one of my dialog choices was literally potato. Can't wait until this gets greenlit regardless.

really getting tired of these "[insert stupid thing here] simulator" games
I was expecting the game to be about you playing as a generic knight going into a cave full of treasure and the only way to obtain said treasure is to take the dragon out to dinner or something.
why do i get the feeling that the guy making this is one of those creepy dragon furries
Jurassic Heart looks much better than this. [img]http://www.technologytell.com/gaming/files/2013/04/jurassic-heart-7.jpg[/img]
At least its not fuccking Common Grounds, my god does that look like a middle schooler's wet dream tossed into MikuMikuDance. [video=youtube;KPQBS2FfMiU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPQBS2FfMiU[/video]

To flesh out that idea more, perhaps the "faceless peasant" was abandoned in the wild by his birth-parents and raised by dragons until he came of age, which would explain how he has such an understanding of dragons. In an age where dragons are hunted, a petty noble recognizes your relative expertise concerning the beasts in the early stages of the game, bringing you into his employ as part of a get-rich-quick scheme involving you getting in good with certain dragons. Later on, you learn of some old prophecy concerning the Dragon Prophet, a mortal raised by dragons who is destined to return the ancient dragons to power, but whether you fulfill the prophecy or defy fate or simply ignore it, that's all up to you. In the meantime you engage in various activities to get in the good graces of the dragons, essentially doing jobs for them like treasure hunting in ancient tombs, getting them supplies so they don't have to attack livestock, helping them fight against the bold knights of the realm, all the while trying to balance remaining on their good sides and bringing in a good haul for your seedy "master". There would be many dragons to interact with, including the foster-father who was once a knight back in the days of the Draconic Empire, the childhood friend who's fallen on hard times, the old wizard who has a strong interest in magical artifacts, the gourmet chef who just wants to make the finest cuisine, the obsessive 'magpie' dragoness who loves to gather fancy stuff, and the list goes on. Depending on how you play the game, there would be many different victory conditions, such as scoring a good enough haul for your master to successfully retire, building up a dragon cult to become a major power in the world, acquiring a powerful artifact to transform yourself into a dragon, completing the Encyclopedia Draconis as the world's leading authority on dragons, driving back the Gryphon Templars with the aid of many dragons, etc. All the while, depending on your chosen gender and the dragons you interact with, you'd end up being able to "date" some of the dragons if you choose (excluding your foster dad, that is), in the traditional scheme of all those silly dating games. That said there would also be many ways to fail and lose. For example, your relationship with a dragon could get so low that they outright just kill you if you make a bad dialogue choice, your master could end up firing and possibly murdering you (surviving his attempt on your life opens up the opportunity for you to start your own venture, though you don't get access to your master's connections and resources), you could be executed by the Templars for dragon-based heresy, you could die exploring a dungeon, hell you could even fail some of the stat rolls when romancing one of the dragons and get killed that way. At the end of the day, considering the nature of the game, no other name would do except Dragon's Profit (not to be confused with the similarly-named Dragon's Prophet, a Taiwanese MMO based around dragons). It'd be miles better than this "Dragon Dating Simulator" at least, even if Dragon's Profit sounds a bit like Recettear meets Hatoful Boyfriend when it comes to the whole money management thing.
This game looks incredibly bad, bleeuuurrgghh. And the dragon itself looks like it has a bunch of dildos growing out of his head. [QUOTE=NoobSauce;46639642]I was expecting the game to be about you playing as a generic knight going into a cave full of treasure and the only way to obtain said treasure is to take the dragon out to dinner or something.[/QUOTE] I would play that shit. :v:
These drawings are not what i associate with [url=http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/223/f/d/red_dragon_by_sandara-d6hpycs.jpg]dragons[/url]
I like how the trailer's music incorporated the sounds of "dead leaves crunching under boots" and "somebody watching Philadelphia". Really wasn't distracting at all.

[QUOTE=SuperHoboMan;46641713]No, they're dragons. And these aren't even dragons, they're cartoon lizards.[/QUOTE] like I can't even tell if people are trying to be ironic or not at this point when they shovel shit like this out to the community market

[editline]4th December 2014[/editline] You've put some serious thought to this, over the years.
To be honest, this was all from a few hours and a glass of mead in the wee hours of the morning. It's a bare-bones "design doc" at best, hardly something that'll ever get made unless there's an indie dev reading. In which case I say take it; hell I don't have the talent or right understanding to write a dating sim.
Wait a minute... This is made in fucking Ren'Py. You know what else is on Steam, and is on Ren'Py? [url]http://store.steampowered.com/app/321060/[/url]
