The protagonist of Liora's Price of Dignity needs to sign a "rules or gambling" contract with the villain, exchanging cooperation through risky transactions, at the cost of dignity, emotions, or future freedom. Struggling between 'completing mission' and 'preserving oneself', each choice affects character relationships and plot direction.
Three person team x dynamic relationship
Character camp:
Actress: Smart and resilient, she needs to navigate between her boyfriend and the villain, balancing emotions and strategy.
Boyfriend: Loyal but impulsive, may trigger plot twists due to jealousy or trust crisis.
Villain: Mysterious and powerful, manipulating the situation through contracts and hiding their true intentions.
Interactive tension: Trust, betrayal, and emotional entanglements between the three run through the main thread, affecting the options for combat and dialogue.
Multi storyline x multi ending system
Branch plot design:
Collaboration Line: Accept the contract and use the power of the antagonist to complete the task, but may lose the trust of teammates.
Resistance line: Refusing the contract, relying on boyfriend and one's own wisdom to confront, facing higher risks and sacrifices.
Multiple outcome triggers:
Glorious ending: Successfully defeating the enemy, but paying a huge price (such as losing dignity or teammates).
Destructive ending: The contract gets out of control, and the villain betrays the protagonist, resulting in the downfall of all members.
Neutral outcome: Achieving partial victory, but leaving hidden dangers (such as the inability to eradicate the opposing forces).
Immersive narrative x strategic game
Contract details: Each contract contains hidden clauses (such as "becoming a slave after losing a bet"), which require players to weigh the pros and cons.
Psychological oppression: Enhance empathy through inner monologue and antagonist threats (such as "Are you worth fighting for dignity?").
Combat system: Combining strategic elements, utilizing teammates' skills and contract conditions to develop tactics that affect the outcome of the battle.
