Monster Kid Go! [Comedy][NaNoRenO 2016][Free]

#1 Post by Chancellorchile »

In this Choose your own Adventure style game, the player takes the role of a plucky monster kid toy
through the trials of being owned by a child. With three kids to choose from, who knows what might happen?
From mischief and merriment to love and horror,
you haven't been programmed to handle an adventure quite like this!

Protagonist

Image

A Monster Kid toy is a digital pet. They were a smash hit last year and while nearly everyone has them,
there are a few children who have not picked one up yet. You're the company's newest model.
With features such as the ability to love, speak, and listen!

Bianca

Image

A quiet girl who enjoys the finer things in life.
Like dark humor and photographing blood.
Y'know, girl stuff.

Caleb
Image

A strange obnoxious kid with good intentions but acts too brashly to accurately show them.
He is an anime fanatic, his favorite character is Nya-Chan from Pretty Kitty Adventures!
He admires how she is loyal to her friends but also randomly horrible to them.

Suzy
Image

Being among the social elite in the 5th grade, this girl has connections.
She know's everyone and everyone knows her; however, it's busy work to be so successful.
She hardly has anytime to decompress.

Does the idea of playing as a virtual pet sound interesting?
Does anything about this project excite you?
Which kid would you prefer to be adopted by?

Ooh, I like the logo. It's very eye-catching.

It does! It also reminds me of Toy Story and Tamagotchi, both of which are things I enjoyed when I was younger.

Does anything about this project excite you?
I find the premise in general quite interesting. I haven't played a visual novel like this before, so I'm curious to see how it plays out.

Which kid would you prefer to be adopted by?
Caleb, I think. I feel like Bianca's hiding some sort of darkness, while Suzy feels like she might be something of a bully. Of course, I could be wrong, but that's my first impression of them. Caleb seems like the nicest one.

This looks like a lot of fun. Good luck, Chancellorchile and SugarScares! I'm rooting for you!

Thank you for the comment! It could definitely be argues that Caleb is the nicest one! But they all have their own little quirks ;D

I'm so happy to hear that! I think this will get me through some more sprites today! And Bianca is a cool cat! Not socially, but on the inside!

Yes! I like it because it's an idea I haven't seen before.

I really like that screenshot of the protagonist. The colors are great, and there's a nice mix of cute and sad.

Between the art and the GUI, it looks like you've got a coherent aesthetic, which it always excites me to see in games.


Which kid would you prefer to be adopted by?
Definitely Bianca. You got me at "photographing blood." :)
