BYU RPG Style Game - cs428TAs/w2023 GitHub Wiki

The Idea

Essentially, my idea is that we make some sort of RPG game like a mix between Final Fantasy and a dating simulator centered around BYU. It could be you're on a time limit to get married (your 4 years of college) and you'll have random encounters with girls/guys on campus. Maybe you need certain skills to be able to date certain people (for instance, if you want a smart spouse, you have to attend classes and do well. If you want a party girl, you need to attend parties and ignore classes.) Battles could occur when a person tries to swoop in and take your interest. Perhaps you also need to handle rent, tuition, and hunger so those can factor into how you strategize you're gameplay. I'd like to have many of the encounters resemble the things you'd read on "Provo's worst dates" to make it more accurate. By the end, you're ranked on how quickly you got married.

The project could reasonably be done in any programming language, but Java may be one of the easier ones to accomplish this in.

I'm thinking this would be done in 2-D with pixel art and backgrounds and stuff like that, and I believe there are libraries that we could use to avoid having to create an entire game engine.
