Coming Out On Top [+18, BXB, Dating, Comedy]-Censored?

#1 Post by Obscura »

Hi, I'm trying to gauge how many people would be interested in a censored version of Coming Out On Top!

Though I'll eventually release a censored version that skips the H scenes, I'm wondering if there's enough interest in a version that would replace those scenes entirely with just cute/silly scenes of the characters doing random non-sexual things together.

For those of you who don't know:

Coming Out on Top follows college student Mark Matthews as he busts out of the closet and engages in all manner of adventure, all the while meeting a multitude of hot guys. Whether he does the right thing, wrong thing, stupid thing, or funny thing is up to you. Beard and body hair options available for all the guys. Currently, you must be 18 and over to purchase/play the game.

Since its release date of December 10th, it's been featured on Killscreen Daily, Rock Paper Shotgun, Gaygamer and Giant Bomb. The game's been praised for its writing and humor (and a now somewhat notorious easter egg path), and I'm just wondering if this would hold any interest for people as a PG-13 type game (albeit with swear words and references to drug and alcohol use.)

Another super rough sketch. I'll be refining the characters' looks over time, don't you worry. :-D
2012-08-10 09_40_24.png
Name: BRAD
Age: 21
Quarterback for Orlin University's football team.
Needs Mark to tutor him to help him pass his classes.
On the outside: an upstanding evangelical Christian with a a squeaky clean reputation.
On the inside: struggling with his sexuality, and the fact he is attracted to men.

Thanks Cinamoon! :mrgreen:

@Moon20, Uncut will have five total relationship options, each with at least 2 main endings. So that's at least 10 endings altogether. (There will probably be more, I'm just not sure how many yet.)

HOLY CRAP BRAD. I KNEW HE WOULD HAVE A PATH!!

Okay, sorry for the caps xD;; I'm just excited for this since I really loved the story in your initial release of Coming Out on Top. Questions!

1. Will Mark get to top anyone? Does he top Brad?
2. Will the plot with Graham (sorry if the spelling is wrong ;___; ) get expanded?
3. How major is Penny's role in this expanded version?

Final rough sketch:
2012-08-10 11_10_07.png

Name: Phil. AKA, Philbert, Penny's cousin.
Age: 24
Though Penny's family is often the source of many in-jokes, the one respectable branch of her family tree has spawned Phil, a marine. He's also the half-black, half-white son of a politician (Penny's uncle.)

Mark and Phil hit it off immediately. Can Mark pursue a hot, heavy, and clandestine relationship when Phil's sexuality becomes a grenade in a ruthless political battle?

1. Gee whiz, I guess I'll count that as a vote for the adult-version for Coming Out On Top! *snicker*
Really...I don't know how to answer this. :lol: If my Kickstarter is wildly successful, there will be an adult version available that should answer your question. :lol:
2. Probably not too much. If anything, Mark's relationship with Alex will get expanded a bit more so they have more time together.
3. Penny will definitely be around to make fun of Mark at the appropriate times, as her job as BFF necessitates. Her relationship to Mark will get beefed up.

Oh yeah, and of course the fourth new guy option is Ian.

Ah, their planned relationship path is enough to make me blush.

(Alex will still be in there, with hopefully some additional scenes. I already have a sweet little scene between Alex and Mark prepared...not sure if I should put it in Redux or Uncut.)

* Additional note: still debating whether Brad should be evangelical or Mormon. We shall see.

Speaking of devilish, updated Brad's expression today...starting to give our good ol' boy some personality...
Brad has a very kind, sweet, devout personality...plus a devilish party side...
Good luck tutoring this one, Mark. You're gonna need it...
