XXX-Com 2024.8.17

There are a lot of firsts here—my first-ever foray into RTS-style gaming, my first ever NSFW jam submission, and so much more. So, it's awesome, but it's also got its quirks and is in need of a post-mortem.

(The Mac version is untested and unnotarized, by the way. But, I seem to have that base covered too now.)

The theme was aliens, with sub themes of bikinis, cyberpunk (kind of hard to approach with this one), and outer space. After a moment I had an idea in my head for a crashed UFO to try and abduct all the ladies on a beach before it takes off again. One unit (the quadruped) attacks them with a spit, stripping them down; and the other drags them back to the ship. I think you need like six total or something right now.

My initial plan was to have it be a true RTS with possible PvP capability, but joyfully it turns out I had no idea what I was talking about there! RTS AI is freakin' fascinating stuff. You've got the basic tactical stuff, but also a strategic director which is basically a whole different system in its own space; then you've got subprocessing for the units, influencing factors like mood and discipline... there are a lot of lessons to be learned here!

Obviously this piece is exclusively meant for people over the age of consent, 18 in America. Controls are as similar to Starcraft as I can remember them, though the quadrupeds tend to go all-in on the attack regardless of which one you have selected.

I'm probably going to update this at least one more time over the next twenty four hours, maybe with some artwork; but I want to have it submitted just in case.
