Note to moderators: I tried asking a moderator if this was ok to post but no one was online. If this post is not suitable for the forum feel free to delete.
This idea is in its very early stages and this is the first time I have put 'pen to paper' for the game so I am very interested to see what people think of the idea. If it all goes well then I am open to ideas which can be featured in the game.
I plan to make an engine that will allow business management style games on the GP32. The first game to use this engine will be from an idea I got while watching the news about a brothel owner who made loads of money from brothels, cue lightbulb above my head and Brothel Tycoon was thought up Brothel Tycoon is my first theme to use the engine but depending on feedback I may use another theme such as drug dealing etc.
At the moment I am undecided if this will be a commercial game in some form, for example donationware, shareware etc. I do hope to make some kind of money as I will spending alot of time working on the game and possibly hiring gfx people for the graphics etc. If it did go commercial I would definately charge no more than £10 for the game. I am very interested in feedback on this so please let me know what you think.
About the game
Brothel Tycoon is a business management game similar to the many other Tycoon games which are already available for various machines. The style of game I plan Brothel Tycoon to be like is Lemonade Tycoon, not overly complex to use and play (important) on a GP32 but enough to keep you busy.
The game will be turn based (1 day = 1 turn) so you will be able to manage the day to day runnings of your empire. You will start off with a single prostitute on a street corner and work your way up to owning multiple brothels, high class hookers and so on.
On the management side of things you will be able to buy and upgrade property and contents, hire and fire staff (prostitutes, receptionists, bouncers etc), buy stock such as condoms etc. Depending on your levels you will be able to provide new sexual services and set the prices for them to keep in competition with your rivals, various forms of advertising like phone booths, local paper, internet etc. Random events such as police raids, bribing the police, dealing with rival brothels etc will be included as well.
While the game will have an adult theme there will be no nudity at all, only sexual references.
Feedback
What I am most interested in at the moment is if people are interested in the game idea; is the theme bad taste? would you play the game? would you donate money or buy the game if money was asked for the game? I dont want suggestions for the game just yet so please save them for the future if the idea goes ahead, so please only reply with your thoughts on the idea.
