What Would Be Your Perfect BE Game

[Naonao]

An RPG-style game akin to Princess Maker or Monster Rancher, where you pretty much treat the character like a pet and manage their activities, feed them, and manage their lives, with character personality thrown in, too, to make things interesting and have secondary characters appear to offer items or services, or to "provide extra training" which may/not be good.

There was some Japanese game where you clicked on buttons and attempted to get different body combinations to unlock new images, but it lacked actual process and each game session felt very short anyway.

Whether or not it's 3D? I don't think that matters, but 2D definitely opens up the boundaries for bizarre sexual situations that would simply require quadruple the effort to reproduce in 3D.

I believe metric G is smaller than the Western G.

Examples:
Western G
Metric G

I had to put flight, just to see what the hell kind of BE game would possibly have that as its main apparatus

Propulsion by milk. Fill up at a dairy station, use milk rockets to fly around and fire Calcium Missiles at incoming boob pilots, but don't get too small! You coudl run out of fuel!

Stealth could be fun too, shoot enemy guards with BE darts which serve both as a distraction and barrier. Traps reduce your ability to be stealthy with BE effects etc.

Hmm... this could fit in with the earlier roguelike idea, maybe.

If we consider BE in a stealth game, reckon we'll need to think about the potential uses of BE as a distraction - either by drawing attention completely away from the player character, or by drawing attention away from what less obvious parts of the player character are doing.

Hmm... come to think of it, this second kind of distraction would be important in more social games, too...

I can't help but agree.Assuming the popular 'RPG' type of MMO, combat would be interesting - but I'd be more instested in seeing what wierd support abilities and crafting skills would exist.

Armour would also be interesting. I mean, would it have sizes? Would the ol' 'naked invulnerability' armour rule be advisable? And would durability be affected by size changes? I could easily see a whole bunch of new armour enchantments existing...

Good to see more support for the Princess Maker type game!!

This would be great as a BE friendly sim.
Maybe for that extra adult orientation, you could be a pimp training your girl, or even multiple workers...

...with all this talk of RPGs and BE, and the fact that I've been playing my PSP FFVII like it's the very thing I need to live lately, all I can think of is BEVII: Advent Chest.

Mmf... Not entirely my preference ('Pimp' has some ugly negative connotations) but I can see that it would have appeal. Personally, I still prefer the 'BE school' idea.

That said, the idea of controlling multiple girls has some potential. It'd help keep things interesting if the simulation wasn't very complex, and it'd be cool if the girls could work together to achieve a goal - or just interact as part of their development and upkeep. On the other hand, if taking care of a single girl was already involving it might end up making things annoyingly complicated, and it'd make scaling difficulty of tasks tricker unless some cunning design came into it.

What he said.

I'd like to add that two-dimensional art is more forgiving. Most of the time, 3D has to actually make sense - at least if the viewer can see it from multiple angles - whereas 2D can have implausible geography, wierd perspective, inconsistant proportions and, if done deliberately and well, can look good regardless.

Also, with a few exceptions, I find that the fact that a bit of art is 3D tends to distract me from the content a little. It's probably just me, but I find myself looking for obvious polygons and unbevelled edges and depthless planes and whatnot.

I know I like the sound of stealth/rogueline with BE being used for and against the player.

As far as platforming and puzzles go, the idea of a character being able to change their breasts in different ways to get around comes to mind. Use an item to make them large and heavy to go through a damaged floor to the lower level of a dungeon, or go with a helium style BE to float up to higher levels. All right, so that sounds a lot like A Boy And His Blob, just with lots of big boobs.
