So it turns out Seduction Quest isn't the only game on the block when it comes to erotical roguelikes. I just recently came across Noxico, and while testing it out, I jumped on the rogue basin IRC and contacted the Kawa (who is making the game). We had a quick discussion about the respective games we were developing, pretty good conversation for the most part.
A little competition is never a bad thing, and if anything it should encourage us both to make our games better. Heh, I told him that this would sorta mean we are rivals, and he responded with a challenge of fisticuffs. (jokingly) Noxico was started inearly June October 2011, so development has been ongoing for six months almost a year. I thought it was worth mentioning here because from what I saw, it looked good and has great potential. I think our games will still be vastly different from one another, but it's nice to get a selection.
=P
In other news, next SQ release should be Sunday or Monday and I'm almost late for a Thanksgiving party! Ciao!

Actually, the earliest timestamp I can find says I started in October 2011.
ReplyDeleteUpdated OP with that info. On the wiki it says Noxico was released in "2012 Jun 07" so that's what I based my information on.
ReplyDeleteWell yes, that was the initial _release_. But you said _development_ ;)
ReplyDeleteGlad to help clear that up :)
Pretty good. Did you do the writing yourself Kawa? I got into a cave system and got squashed. Is there a leveling system at this point?
ReplyDelete@ Dave - You might have a better chance at getting Kawa's reply through his tumblr here, http://noxico.tumblr.com/
DeleteOr you can try the forums he has setup. :)
There's skill leveling -- if you have a weapon, you can get better at using that and those like it with practice.
DeleteHitpoints are pretty much static by now.
