[VX Ace] The Laughing Isles

[Carnivore]

Hmm... well, being given wrong clues will throw me off track. No wonder I came up with some crazy theory. The paint thing definitely seems to fit Mamo better than Kari. So... I'm really close? Maybe not a lizardwoman, but something extremely similar like a frog or chameleon woman? Those are my best guesses that would fit with the paint / potentially bright colors thing. On Fellaysia... I'm close again... No just needs encouragement? So she's not a fox, but a badger woman? Hmm, I'm curious as to how that'd work out. If not that, I suppose a weasel or minx would fit in the mode of “no” just being an eventual “Yes.”

On Tula and Muka... my memory of them is really fuzzy now. One was the sensitive woman that I guessed was a gorgon. I don't remember anything on the other. So... I'll pass on those for the moment. My interest in them has waned in favor of the more recent clues, I guess. On Kari... similar to those attached the sea, but she can't swim? Still pretty opaque. There are sea creatures that can't swim, but crustaceans would be a bit too insectoid, I'd think. Unless that's just her imperfection, although I can't imagine a mermaid that can't swim. Attached to the sea... part sea gull? I'm still not sure on this one. All I've got are those yellow eyes.

Aside from my inane guesses, nice to see the community keeping up the conversation, game or no. The Bezzy updates continue to be entertaining. I'll need to come up with some kind of non-tickling related question for her at some point. And maybe more scenarios, if you still need them and I can still think of them.

If you have Steam already, just sign up for the beta. I play every now and then, but I kinda prefer LoL over DoTA2 atm. LoL feels more streamlined, and DoTA2 is just DoTA with better graphics. Not to mention LoL has better looking women imo :stickout

This ---^. Though I have recently seen a few of the female models seem to enjoy running around with open-toed stockings, which is quite hot. Then again, their feet also look a little weird and manish, so I dunno~ Still:
Looks aside (and let me tell you, I love the voices, character interaction and models), not sure I'd like DoTA's gameplay over LoL's. Plus, yknow, spent money in LoL. Kindof stupid to just abandon it for another MOBA just like it lol.

You got Sona's all star boobs (and big, beautiful feet and legs - but alas, that was just fanart of the week. siiiigh)
You got Fiora's ass which is the partner of "dat"
You've got Janna's always bare feet floating around

And then you've got Gragas who is the embodiment of pure sexy 😛

Sounds like you've played Bethesda's games. ^^

"I am SWORN to carry your burdens"

...

Ah, forgot the bit where Bezzy said she was off-world. Guess their tech makes more sense now. (steampunk can only go so far 😀)

Interesting choice putting your spokesperson so far out of the way.
Debating whether this implies some kind of interplanetary travel on our part, ooor Illusia dealing with immigration.

Tsk tsk, forgetting what Bezzy says like that. And she takes time to come out and answer her fans 😛
Bezzy isn't a character I just made up for the game. Even though everyone in this game is now a part of the "family", Bezzy was made - believe it or not - as a summon for my main story's cast (summoned by "The Creator"). Her and several characters you'll meet were. Of course, this is the first time I've actually drawn her.
Interplanetary travel? Planetary immigration? Maaaaybe. I'll never tellll :teehee:

Not sure how a frog would be into paint, but a chameleon was an interesting guess. Then again, you seem to now be on an amphibian/reptile path and lemme say no, not close at all. Same with Fellaysia, though I still commend you for guessing. Those were actually some interesting choices comparing her to trickster animals. You had em, but you should go back to your previous posts and see what your other guesses were. These ones are back off track; you grabbed the needle from the haystack and threw it into a field of corn 😛 Remember as well what I said - not every girl is a monster girl.

On Tula and Muka... my memory of them is really fuzzy now. One was the sensitive woman that I guessed was a gorgon. I don't remember anything on the other. So... I'll pass on those for the moment. My interest in them has waned in favor of the more recent clues, I guess.

At first I was like: w00t

But then I was like: :cry

On Kari... similar to those attached the sea, but she can't swim? Still pretty opaque. There are sea creatures that can't swim, but crustaceans would be a bit too insectoid, I'd think. Unless that's just her imperfection, although I can't imagine a mermaid that can't swim. Attached to the sea... part sea gull? I'm still not sure on this one. All I've got are those yellow eyes.

'

It's gonna be real tough with her. By which I mean, no she isn't a seagull woman lol. Funny guess, though I would think such a girl could be considered a subtype or a species of harpy. You're on the right track with her, but I never said Kari is attached to the sea, only those she bares similarities to are. I can't give anymore clues for her (unless I screw up again, then it's another apology clue heh).

More scenarios are never bad. Neither are more Bezzy questions. 😀



As for people keeping up conversations without the game - I have BIG NEWS! All demo related maps have been completed - graphically. Now all that's left is to get the eventing out of the way (one map is already completed), release a girl or two's portrait, and finish the emotion sheets for Nadya.

 

[shadowscurse1]

Wootness! Good to see you're cranking away at it still xD Scenario: One party member dangles from a tree, caught in a "Predator's Trap". What this trap/predator is you can use your creative juices for :stickout The other party member(s) have to get to the trapped person before the predator, otherwise they will all be stuck. I suppose this can be done via waves, or a couple battles before the trap. There can be feet, ub, licking, tickling, whatever depending on said predator and design of said trap. Just an idea I had, feel free to run with it, or throw it in the trash and crush my hopes and dreams :cry Totally up to you, not trying to sway you to one or the other :stickout

 

[ticklingever1]

Yay! Well, i have a question. And what about the weak points of the characters?
Any one of them have one weak point or the player can customize it?

 

[11225]

That would be cool if you can customize a weak point for a character. That way you can pick a spot you like as long as it's not a certain character that is either a special character or main character in my opinion.

Like what dues did?....or well....is doing?

 

[marcelostalker]

I hope "is doing" is the right way to put it, but yeah, the fact is that he already did.

Hrmm... interesting concept. Perhaps with an added time limit too, emphasizing the need for a quick rescue. I'll consider this.

Or maybe I'll throw it in the trash just for shits and giggles while you react 😛 I keed, I keed.

Yay! Well, i have a question. And what about the weak points of the characters?

I answered this earlier in the thread, but I know it'd be a pain to go through all the pages. Each girl has at least 2 "most ticklish" spots on her, a minimum of one upperbody one lowerbody. This doesn't mean that her other parts can't be ticklish, just that these two (or more) parts are the most sensitive.

No, just like the girls in ToG (like Honeybee or Aello), they all come with predetermined ticklish spots that you won't be able to change outside of battle. Now, there are pieces of equipment you can have that increase or decrease these stats, so in battles you can alter these. There will also be enemies that can affect these stats, including ones that can unequip your armor (such as those who don't like trying to tickle feet through boots 😛)

As to whether or not you can customize Nadya, the main character, again the answer is no. This game doesn't have Deus' character customization at the start (though, even then I felt nothing really changed when I dulled all my ticklishness spots aside from my weakest in ToG). Nadya is by default 100% ticklish all over, with no particular place as the weakest or strongest ticklish spot. So unlike the girls, at least Nadya doesn't have any particular attacks to be terrified of.

That would be cool if you can customize a weak point for a character. That way you can pick a spot you like as long as it's not a certain character that is either a special character or main character in my opinion.

...? Not...sure I follow this. If you can't customize a special character and you can't customize a main, then all that's left is...random or unimportant NPC's lol. Kindof weird to run up to some townsfolk and yell "YOU ARE TICKLISH ON YOUR THIGHS!" to which they respond "I AM TICKLISH ON MY THIGHS!" Don't even know how you'd customize an enemy where to be ticklish either.
But as mentioned above, no you will not be able to customize any of the cast like that.


Edit: Oh yea, and sorry guys ~ no Ask Bezzy comics this weekend 😛inch:

WELL MET.

Bezzy isn't a character I just made up for the game. Even though everyone in this game is now a part of the "family", Bezzy was made - believe it or not - as a summon for my main story's cast (summoned by "The Creator"). Her and several characters you'll meet were. Of course, this is the first time I've actually drawn her.
Interplanetary travel? Planetary immigration? Maaaaybe. I'll never tellll :teehee:

A summon for the main cast? Like another figment?
Heh sorry, might need to elaborate for me.

If not you'll always have a selling point for a sequel. 😛
Back to my speculations.

 

[AnimeWatcher1]

WELL MET.

I used to be an adve- *gets shot*

A summon for the main cast? Like another figment?
Heh sorry, might need to elaborate for me.

Back to my speculations.

Well lookit you! Bein all smart! Figments generally tend to be heroes in this universe, but are summons for the Creator in his. That's not to say all summons are Figments. You'll see this more in the next game.

There is a lot of lore behind all this, many of which you won't quite get in Illusia, sadly, since they're so far away from the heart of it all. The main cast, by the way, is the original characters I've got that have withstood and evolved throughout my life. Out of that cast, only the Creator has any true relation to the characters you see here.

 

[AnimeWatcher1]

I saw Bezzy~

She opened up my eyes, I saw Bezzy~


Here is this week's Ask Bezzy comics, featuring questions from Bashiku and stork!

The questions led to some emotional responses this time.

 

[Reogen]

Emotional indeed ;_; Boomboxers have it rough, at least until they find their Soulician. Gotta say, that was pretty clever Anime 😀

Hmm, still I feel we've missed a question, so I'll go on and throw it out there!
"Dear Bezzy, with all the importance of tickling in your world, there HAS to be a few devices or machines geared towards tickling others, magical or actual mechanical. If so, I hope there's one for that midriff of yours, an unmerciful tickler to bring the laughter in waves! P:

 

[buttontickler05]

That was pretty emotional. I'm not used to seeing Bezzy like that. I like it much more when she's being herself and upbeat (pun not intended).

 

[Bashiku]

After that last question being answered I feel like a douche 🙁

 

[stork]

So, dimension jumping? Hah, so much for my hopes on space travel.

Far from the heart of it all; just thought Illusia was a good starting point to build on?

The main cast, by the way, is the original characters I've got that have withstood and evolved throughout my life.
Out of that cast, only the Creator has any true relation to the characters you see here.

Writing this for a while then?
And by characters we see here, you mean like Bezzy and the the main cast, or just the main characters in general?

Sorry, the main game'll hopefully clear me up where I'm still lost. Establishing lore for a multi-dimensional universe via multiple forum posts is bound to have its difficulties. 😀

I saw Bezzy~

She opened up my eyes, I saw Bezzy~

Gripes about getting that song stuck in my head aside-
First comic made me daaw, second made me aw...

I semi-predicted relationship growth would be part of the event. Could be fun to expand on.

Don't confuse him. He'll cut ya!

 

[AnimeWatcher1]

Man, I wasn't expecting these kind of responses! Am I in the right place? XD What a shocking development. I was expecting people just going "meh" unless I had Bezzy teasing you all (though I'm amused that Ultra Viper has given the same unhappy response to the last few comics lol.) You guys make me proud to be a part of this community.

I've come to realize I've made a big mistake. Let's face it, you guys enjoy Bezzy. She now has been given a lot of depth and personality with all these Q&A's. Why is this bad? Because once she is put into her own game, no one in their right mind is going to go for anyone but Bezzy on their first playthrough lol. Everyone is going to want to make her happy, explore her feelings and spend quality time together, get payback for all the temptation with no punishment in her comics, and see her own story and background. I feel really bad for the other cast members that have to travel with her :lol

Emotional indeed ;_; Boomboxers have it rough, at least until they find their Soulician. Gotta say, that was pretty clever Anime 😀

Hmm, still I feel we've missed a question, so I'll go on and throw it out there!

Not every race is happy-go-lucky sunshine and lollipop factories. Boomboxers are quite spunky, though, despite the hardships they deal with. And thank you -bows- I try to be a little clever as I make character lore 🙂

My, what a marvelous question. I'm sure many other members would like to know that one as well. I'll put it in the Ask Bezzy question pile.

That was pretty emotional. I'm not used to seeing Bezzy like that. I like it much more when she's being herself and upbeat (pun not intended).

-pats your back- Ah, my dear Super Snake. Lore must be in place for a character to truly feel alive, don't you agree? The scene is set, but what will you do? Does it not make you want to find a way to cheer her up? To solve her problems? You talk like she should always be happy and not have any problems in life. If that's so, will you make it happen? Will you protect her when the time comes?

After that last question being answered I feel like a douche 🙁

Come now Bashiku, you didn't ask anything bad. It could've been worse - she could have lost her father and you could've asked "Tell me about your parents". I would think "My dad is dead" would be a lot more depressing. At least he is still alive, even if his condition could kill him one day. You now also know how the Boomboxer society cares for one another the best they can.

 

[AnimeWatcher1]

So, dimension jumping? Hah, so much for my hopes on space travel.

Far from the heart of it all; just thought Illusia was a good starting point to build on?

I can't say more on it, as it'll ruin any surprises in the lore 🙂 But, are you saying dimension jumping between the universe Illusia is in and the Creator's? No. I mean, I guess technically summons are like that in most games, jumping from whatever realm they exist into the summoner's. But like I said, can't spill the beans.

Illusia was going to be the "homeworld" that Light and Darkness fight over, but then after I started working on it and having decided combat and events would be so heavily tickle-related, I remade Illusia's background. That's not to say certain things can't happen.

Writing this for a while then?
And by characters we see here, you mean like Bezzy and the the main cast, or just the main characters in general?

Sorry, the main game'll hopefully clear me up where I'm still lost. Establishing lore for a multi-dimensional universe via multiple forum posts is bound to have its difficulties. 😀

In terms of how long I've "worked" on things.
Creator and the main cast - years
This universe - About a year ~ a year and a half
Illusia - A month or two before I started this thread, and expanding on it each day.

Yes, I mean the characters like Bezzy that you'll see. The Creator does have relations with the main cast, of course. But the characters you see here have a deeper connection with him. You'll find out eventually.

Gripes about getting that song stuck in my head aside-

Lol :lol sorry. I like making the Ask Bezzy posts fun from time to time heh.

You...DO remember my games let you form a relationship party members, right? 😛

You should! You killed the mood!😛issed

:lol

I know right? He should be asking "Why aren't you tied up and being tickled relentlessly!?" lol

Don't confuse him. He'll cut ya!

He just might! His avatar is badass. The serious kind of badass. The kind who you ask "What time is it?" and he punches you in the face because he thought you were a threat.

 

[10 armed tkler]

Bezzy is very interesting character...so since she is always covered, AW. You tell me what is her measurements? I would say put it in a ask Bezzy question...but those slow you down!

Don't confuse him. He'll cut ya!

He just might! His avatar is badass. The serious kind of badass. The kind who you ask "What time is it?" and he punches you in the face because he thought you were a threat.

He will cut me...but will I die?:45:

 

[Bashiku]

Dae how about you appear in my game and say hello to Alice? I planned on making her appear this week anyways.

 

[buttontickler05]

Well, CartoonViewer, I have to admit that all the good characters in history have good and bad points to their pasts. Bezzy should be no different. I just prefer seeing her happy is all.

As for the rest of all that, it sounds very similar to Ar Tonelico. Yea, i'll keep her going as long as possible and do what I can to help her, but if her bellybutton is about to be tickled, i'm probably going to let it happen. 😉
