Harmony of Love : an Alicia Dating Sim

So I was wondering what you guys thought of a karma system in the game?

Basically, certain dialogue choices might give or take away Karma points.

You end up with Alicia whatever your score, but you can try for a higher score.


Most dialogue choices would likely have little affect on Karma, but every now and then you get an option to be a little more selfish, or selfless, and maybe based off of that I could reward Karma.

That might encroach upon the game though, as people might decide to make decisions off of Karma rather than off of what they actually want to chose.

Maybe it's something that can't be unlocked until after you beat the game once? That way it can just be there to encourage re-playability. Which might be fun, especially since the game will be fairly short.

Tell me what you guys think of this, and whether or not you think it would fit the game well.

Any suggestions are welcome. 😊

I think "Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas" is by far my favorite Christmas song.

Aside from the music simply being more emotional than most, it has a really strong atmosphere compared to other Christmas songs.

It all depends on tomorrow.
