So you want to create a game inspired by Otometeki Koi Kakumei Love Revo, aka Ugly Duckling's Love Revolution? That could be quite a task. The original console game has nine potential love interests and elaborate simulation gameplay. (You can read all about it on two parts of GameFAQs. Haruno_hyuuga created a walkthrough for the PS2 version, and Heliumsy created a walkthrough for the DS version.)

If you think you're ready to create a complex dating simulation, go for it... but it might be wise to reduce the scope of your game. Unless you have a dedicated group of people working on it, the game you've planned will probably take a huge amount of time and effort. And unless you're planning to create a commercial product, it might be tough to invest all that time into a freeware title.

Two questions about your main character that you might want to consider...

1. Why do the girls in your story "dislike him right off the bat"? If he's rich, does he come across as snobby or self-absorbed? Does he seem ill-mannered or perverse?

2. From what I read about the backstory of Otometeki, the main character Hitomi sounds kind of like a Mary Sue, in that she once was beautiful, and in that she can attract a variety of guys even while having weight problems. (And even though I can believe that the male characters would be more attracted to her after she loses weight, the whole concept seems kinda shallow and in bad taste...)

That said, in your game, you want to make sure that Kai doesn't become a Marty Stu. Be sure to read advice on how to avoid writing a Sue/Stu.

Yeah this Game it'll be Commercial and I'll be Scoping out for a true team no short cuts to this at all.

1.) He is hardly self absorbed more insecure for the record , but he makes horrible jokes if that makes people hate you at first conversation .Not all the girls Dislike him as much as Renai does(for Secret reasons) but the 4 other top "five" were disappointed more in meeting Kai when his sister told them of his soon arrival and Stretched the truth about his smarts and good looks to find an over weight dweeb in place of their dream like prince man.

2.) Kai is going to have the Worse time even getting any of them to find him suitable to date or be a possible love interest for all, no way is his life to have love anything Mary sue, so no cheap tricks or flashy smiles to win these chicks over with.

@gekiganwing
Thank you very much for your much needed critique I'm gald I had to make sure Kai Wasn't mary sue that would flush this down so fast. X D

I liked the original game because it has a lot of comedy in it despite stat focus on loosing weight. I would like to point out that the heroine wants to lose weight for herself, and not necessary for the aim to "get a guy". The story routes for each character where also very nicely done, though I may sound biased because I do like the game. I do know its not the greatest type of theme to build a love relationship otome game out of, but there is also a cultural aspect to the whole idea to even make the game. (I doubt seeing this sort of game being in the states I mean...) Sorry cant explain it every well XD

Does the Kai have other reasons or motivations for loosing weight other than wanting to become a model? Or more popular in school? Also having a foriegn name, does this mean he is a nikkei born in Japan?

Is there a reason tachibana has the same last name as tachibana in the original? Or why she doesnt seem to know a lot of Japanese with a Japanese name? It could easily be that he wasnt brought up in Japan, but it seems a little odd. I guess its something one would find out over the story?

I was also wondering, having a Korea or Britain exchange student and people not knowing where she is from... wouldnt some people know based on her accent? I dont know if you were planning to add voice actors for this but it might not be very convincing unless she doesnt talk alot to pick up an accent.

Lastly, brother complex or not there isnt a lot of older siblings who would call their younger brother onii-chan. It sounds very odd, and in the situation I think it would be more convincing to have her call him by his name, or a lovingly family petname. Its much more intimate than Oniichan which is only really used by younger children to address their older brother.

Anyway though, good luck with the game!
Sorry if my comments may of sounded hurtful - they are just suggestions and things I was wondering about the game. ^^;;

Kai has other reasons to lose weight of course ( but it is secret since the story once you finish all find the true meaning why) Oh he doesn't want to be a model anymore (The beginning will explain that very harshly)

nikkei born in Japan : (Yup Another plot point)


tachibana: (Yeah I realized after putting it there and had to laugh, but it is important to her route) Well she slacked off in her studies and didn't want to learn but Claire forced her

Korea or Britain exchange student: She keeps her life to her self and doesn't talk right usually words are slurred or mumbled or has her back turned to the conversation.

--But Yeah Since this will be commerical I'll put voice actors in it but not quite sure if just for small words

Yeah Onii-chan will bug me if I continue to write it for her but truly she just calls him "Kawai"~

Thank you afu for The Good Help I appreciate it!~

I don't know if you're all joking or not... Kawai (kawaii) basically is cute in Japanese. And Japanese are crazy for cute things (they even have the cute culture).

I might note that "onii-chan" is pretty strictly older brother.

Younger brother, however, is otouto. So an older sister would either call their younger brother "otouto-chan/otouto-kun," their name, or a cute pet name. Kawaii is an adjective... and as an English VN, using Kawaii as a nickname is both odd, and a bit irritating.

When remaking a game, there are a lot of issues you run into. You can't slack off just because the plot and situation is already set, and you have something to base it off of. In fact, if anything, you have to put ten times more effort into it to make it worth playing. Why would people want to play a rough spinoff if it doesn't offer anything new or interesting? You have to give the player something to draw them in other than the fact that it's a game they're already familiar with.

You say that there are a lot of things that flesh out the characters in game... But instead of just saying it, how about you prove it? I'd love to see some stuff added to their profile. Especially if the information is just introduced at the beginning of the game as the situation, I'm sure it's fine if you put some of it here. You're more likely to attract people to play if you can back up your words with solid information.

You'll probably need a proofreader/editor to help you with this, because quite frankly your use of capitalization and some of your word choice sucks (I'm so sorry DX I'm a grammar nazi!). Especially if this is going to be commercial, it's going to take a lot of work! How are you going to make it commercial? Since this game has already been made, and you're even using basically the original name, you'll definitely run into a lot of copyright issues... I assumed only original ideas could be commercial, unless the spinoff was made by the original company? *frowns* You'll probably have to make it freeware.

Could be a great game~ I'll wait for it. You just seem to have a lot you need to sort out, but if you keep working on it, it'll all get figured out as you work!

Yeah I remember Otouto is the correct thing to say. ^-^U

Kawai is what she calls him but fort he most part she will not be saying it that or that won't be voiced (would drive everyone crazy)
even using basically the original name, you'll definitely run into a lot of copyright issues..
Yeah The title has to go thanks for telling me.

I'll be Fixing up all the loose end soon and continue qith the rest.

You say that there are a lot of things that flesh out the characters in game... But instead of just saying it, how about you prove it? I'd love to see some stuff added to their profile

You keep mentioning that things are important plot points, but you never mentioned anything about them initially... If "the beginning will explain that very harshly," it would probably be beneficial for you to go ahead and put a bit of that information in the description in your first post. The motivations and mindset of the main character are a part of the personality and a major part of the plot.

On that note, making his other reasons a "secret" is a bit odd. If we are playing and controlling the character, as a player, wouldn't it make more sense to know exactly what our goal is in the game? If we're just working to make him skinnier and date one of the girls, that's what we think our only goal is. To contradict the entire game by basically saying "actually, your goal this entire time was ____!" without hinting at another goal even existing can be a bit irritating. At the very least, you can hint at it in the beginning? Instead of "I want to lose weight but you can't know why yet!" you could make it more along the lines of "I want to lose weight... but it's for a more important reason than just aesthetics. However, I don't think I'm ready to admit that yet."

Also, I believe the term "nikkei" usually refers to (in Japan), a person whose family emigrated out of Japan, and then returned. Therefore they would NOT be born in Japan, and that is the argument about them. Although they are Japanese, they are not Japanese citizens. Also, Nikkei is a rather vague term to begin with... so you should probably explain your meaning if you're going to mention it. Give as much information as you can!
