CharmWeapon SystemHere's my idea for the CharmWeapon System in my generic action platformer: There are women scattered around everywhere from towns to dungeons to forests to castles to floating castles flying to the moon. If you successfully charm them, they transform into a weapon to help you slay monsters and aliens. To charm them you can do these:1. Flex2. Kill monsters near her to show your manliness.3. Compliment yourself and make her agree.Real-time Flex System:With flexing, if you do it after doing a badass combo, its effectiveness is improved. If skilled enough, you can flex in between combos. This will cause you to do double, triple, super, and finally the ultimate Dream Flex in which rainbows of awesomeness will sprout from behind Pan, the player character.Also with flexing, there's a meter when flexing, so if you hit a button at the right time determined by the meter a la golf games, you can score a Dream Flex and go up to Double, Triple, Super, and God Dream Flex.you can also give them shoes and food that you find by defeating enemies and opening treasure chests as gifts.You could buy gifts from merchants as well but they'll mostly be crap. Because giving stuff you find in the floor is far more of a sign that you love her.Dating With Blood SystemJust a minor note, because of the lack of monsters in town, you can also invite girls to watch you kill things. I guess it means that the monsters will respawn. There will also be a time limit to reach the minimum Charm LV. to charm her. Thus, you can OverCharm her and improve the weapon stats. Weapon stats are influenced by time left, monsters killed, health taken away (not left at time of ending the date).Also, monsters can attack the datee and annoy her enough to end the date.ExamplesXie Xiaoai: She likes cowboy boot and guitar items. After reaching the Charm LV. 100, she turns into a Shotgunblade. Her location at the top of a tower forces the player to date and fight fearsome aerial foes. Certainly a challenge to get even Double Flexes.Cao Yubi: She's not materialistic. Instead, she loves bloodshed. Thus, she isn't the person to give even chocolates to. So you must fulfill her bloodshed with a Charm Lv. of a huge 250. Thankfully, she's in town and the outskirts are filled with fodder for your massacring and charming. She'll transform into a Lightdao, a dao with LEDs glued on.Problems:-I'm not sure how Pan's gentleman owl familiar will act during the times he does a date of massive bloodshed.-If the weapons should be able to get stat boosts after obtaining them since there aren't any stat boosts in the game at all.Of course I could get weapons to level but that gives the earlier weapons more of an advantage in usage and I don't wanna make the later weapons like God Tier for them to appeal.-Whether this would force me to make a lengthy game.it's not that sexist, you depend on them to get stronger in the game. :UNOTE: Screenshots are WIP. Tiles, backgrounds, and rainbows when you do a Dream Flex, and various other effects and graphics are not implemented.
lol
You need to make the game role-reversible, so the player can be a woman or a man and attracting women or men. That way it's nice and non-sexist =D
