The Sibling Experiment [COMPLETED]

#1 Post by Godline »

ITCH.IO LINK



The Sibling Experiment has two playable protagonists.
82k words.
Options to get fuzzy family endings, light and sappy romance endings or mystery solved endings for each girl.

It's based on a screenplay that I wrote about 10 years ago. But I've had some awesome people helping make it fresh with such dated content. Haha.

Basically it's aimed towards all ages, but especially girls who know how frustrating it is having a sibling.

This looks like a bunch of fun. I'm so ready to get mystery solved and happy family endings :mrgreen:.

I was wondering who you romanced. Is it the other girl, the opposite brothers, other people they know (like Johnno), a combination of those possibilities?

Either way, congrats on all your progress. I'm really looking forward to playing it in January!

Mainly romance options for each other's brothers (no incest options, sorry to those on Steam who are clearly excited about incest, haha) and Johnno.

I guess I could have gone crazy with other romance options, haha. But truthfully I hadn't even thought about all the other options until seeing your post!

I think your story will benefit by exploring topics such as...

* How the siblings relate to each other. What are their conflicts? In which ways do they admire or respect each other?

* The girls' and guys' thoughts about each other. Do Jasmine and Terry Jane see the other person as friends or rivals? Do Eric, Tyler, and Johnno get along?

* Their opinions regarding love interests. For instance, is Eric sometimes protective about Jasmine, and wants her to find the right person?

That's fine. I believe it's good to establish the boundaries for your story's content. It sounds like you want your story to have the equivalent of a PG-13 rating or an ESRB Teen rating.

I do indeed want it to be for all ages to enjoy. It was originally written as a screenplay which had a very 'Disney channel' vibe to it. I had wanted to do something about it for ages and with my lack of contacts in the movie business, here we are today.

Jasmine and Terry Jane see the other person as friends or rivals?
Jasmine and TJ have very different interests, so they don't really have any reason to see each other as rivals. There might be a chance to add a little bit of rivalry in if Jasmine decides to persue Johnno however.

Do Eric, Tyler, and Johnno get along?
Eric and Tyler sort of do, though because of their age difference they don't really have as much to do with one another.

Eric sometimes protective about Jasmine, and wants her to find the right person?

Eric actually would be, which TJ finds out after the switch. Jasmine doesn't really have a chance to find out that because she has no love interests pre-switch. Again, there's a chance to show some of that if Jasmine persues Johnno (though that was always an afterthought ending).

Tyler however wouldn't care less about TJ's romantic choices. But he's not the older brother. ;)

This looks SUPER adorable--as a girl with a brother myself, this looks to be a lot of fun! Me and my brother are really close, and I like how (as I read this thread) there's no incest endings---it's so hard to find stories in the anime community with non-incest brother-sister relationships.

Hehe. Really? Are you one of those siblings that make the rest of us gag? ;) Joking.
I have a good relationship with my bro now... but when I was younger, not so much. Hence the inspiration.

Def. no incest
but there are some 'awkward moments'.

I'll just leave this here:

Thanks to absolutely everyone that contributed to this finally being finished. We put it up as a prototype but I think there won't be many changes as of the current builds.
