Dolcett game idea
So someone was asking about a Dolcett game. Now, while I'm not a gamedev, I do have an idea for an ideal Dolcett-style game. This is what I have in mind.
Premise:
So the basic premise of the game is that it takes place in a meat factory, with Papers Please/ inspection style-gameplay. You play as three workers who operate different parts of the factory, following laws and company policy to get money and boost the reputation of the factory.
Gameplay:
The gameplay is split up into three sections: Inspection, Processing, and Cooking.
In inspection, you have to evaluate the girls who come through. The way this would work is that they hand you a meat ID card; you check that all the details are correct and send them through as either A, B, C, D, E or F. However, you have to be careful, as sometimes the information on the card is not the same as what you see.
So, for example, the card says A, but the automatic grader says B. You have to find out why there's an inconsistency and get her through the correct gate. These inconsistencies can be in the shape of tattoos, more weight, medical issues and the like. You have to find them and address them correctly. This is also where policy vs law comes in. Per company policy, every girl has to go through, while the law demands a full inspection and the like. Both can either provide monetary or reputational benefits. Sometimes both.
In Processing, you have to send the meatgirls to the correct line to die. Like hanging, beheading and the like. But you have a quota to meet, such as having X number of girls ride the spit or hang. But you have to let them through one at a time and prep them for their doom before moving on to the next one. Each method takes time. Like spitting would take the longest but makes more money, while hanging takes the shortest but makes the least.
In cooking, you have to put the corpses of the meatgirls into the automatic butcher and cookers before time runs out, and you have to put the rest into storage. Like the previous one, you have a quota to meet before the end of the day and have to organise the girls into raw packing, oven-cooked, fired and spit.
That's it for my idea. Anything else to add?
