Gift of Hedone: What is the actual "Gameplay Loop"?
Added 2024-07-10 23:00:01 +0000 UTCHello you sexy deviants,
For those who may not be familiar with the term, A gameplay loop is the sequence of actions that players perform repeatedly throughout the game - ultimately it is what will keep you coming back to a game if you enjoy the gameplay loop.
So I wanted to take this time to explain best I can in its simplest form what I want the Gift of Hedone Gameplay loop to be:
You will prepare you party for journeying & exploration:
1. Apply Pre-journey buffs
2. Discover side quest
3. Strengthening Your Party (passives & abilities)
4. Summon New Teams Members
5. Make Potions
6. Buy Items or Upgrade Weapons
7. "Interact" with party members and other NPCs ;)
Once prepared, you will venture out and explore:
1. Fight Monsters & Level Up
3. Find Treasure & secrets
4. Complete Side Quests
You will become strong enough to progress the story, to reach the next village and the loop will repeat, unlocking more preparation options, and more venturing exploration tasks.
I hope this provides a good snapshot of the gameloop, but please let me know if you have any questions.

2024-07-11 09:27:57 +0000 UTCGo out, kill enemies/do quests, get loot, upgrade, go out, kill tougher enemies, get better loot, repeat. Love the loop, theres a reason its in so many games

2024-07-11 04:59:30 +0000 UTCI'd say that with this type of game there aren't a lot of game loops. The only thing I can think of is the coming back to find new variants of the same girls you already found or if you want a hard mode that's locked until you finish it. Of course a gallery mode or something is always a yes for me and it will always make me come back depending on how good the animations are

2024-07-11 04:35:37 +0000 UTCI'm new to the patreon, but seeing you're post for a while. I was really intrigued by you mentioning making a game. Will there be a story aspect to it? I'd play it either way, but is there going to be a main story/ plot line? I only ack because you didn't mention a main quest line, but did speficially say side quests

2024-07-11 00:28:29 +0000 UTCUnfortunately its not really a monster taming/catching game - but I do hope to include a way to "interact" with the enemies after studying them a lit :)
