Some art and I don't know (Patreon)

Some art of what the game might look like. I was gonna incorporate it into another GUI design, but I got a bit sidetracked. It's some catgirls lickling the feet of the girl in the previous pic. And some feet for her to worship, of course. Really, I'm just searching for more ideas in my head.
The thing I got sidetracked by - I don't know if I mentioned the game Tokimeki Memorial. I saw this review by Tim Rogers -

5 hours! Must be a good game. He clames it is anyway. I'll try to give it a playthrough myself. To get a feel for it.
I also watched the 12 hour let's play -

Really interesting stuff. I think I'm gonna base the skeleton of our game on this one. Why reinvent the wheel? It's still gonna take place in a Drake Complex, and the surrounding city. Each day you choose an activity or where you're going to go and based on your choice, you'll get the appropriate events. I still want to preserve player choice (tickling, feet, smelly feet, or all of the above). It'll will be done by player choice - you choose where you want to go and what activities you want to participate in.
It also dawned on me that a game like this should lean heavily on it's characters. Getting a snapshot of how a room or the lab operates might be ok for a picture, but it'll get really boring in a long game. It already got boring in a 20 page comic! I'm going to invest more time and energy into interesting characters that'll carry the spirit of the game on them.
I know I'm going to include Drake and Alexia. They'll occupy the angle they always have - lab work with some torture and sadism. Well, from Drake anyway. The character will have more to do with Alexia. She's more approachable. Drake will be like a force of nature.
I definitely want to include the cultist girl from the Damned Soles game. I really like her. I want her to be hard to reach and mysterious. Like, you only get glimpses of her unless you pursue the arcane arts. Then, she starts getting interested and slowly introduces you to her sect, one that worships some kind of eldrich abomination of feet and tickling. I want to go wild with her stuff, something totally off the wall.
Catgirls and Uxies are a must - embodying tickling and smelly feet. I just have to make compelling characters from these races.
I want to include Aly from elf training as well. She's going to be a vanilla foot option. Something laid back and relaxed. I thought she'd be a reflexology expert. Give her her own saloon, maybe a class she could teach.
That's it for now. I'll do a prototype next month. Something really basic. Just so we can get a feel for the game.
