Was just wondering what the script writing process is like.
Do you write a bunch of first drafts and then submit them and work on the ones that are accepted? Or do Vadim, Kosmos and Serega give you the idea of what kind of game they want to make and you flesh out the script?
Also how much input do you have with the scripts themselves? And have there been any games you wrote that you wanted to see get made but couldn’t for one reason or another?
Hey! The script writing process is pretty straightforward and there’s kind of a “MnF style” to it- short intro, three sex scenes or two scenes and a mini-game, and a short ending. A lot of people do intros that are waaaayyyyy too long before getting into the sex, or put in too many sex scenes, and I’ve been guilty of that in the past too, I’m definitely not perfect lol. The style was invented by guys like Serrated, Haseo, and Kelumir a long time ago, even before I started writing for the site in 2018. They’re responsible for creating most of the characters everyone knows and loves, like Officer Juggs and Mighty Mom. If you have more questions about scripts there is a guide on the main site with rules and guidelines and stuff.
And I only write games for Vadim, but back when we did contests my idea for X-Mas Payrise 7 won a contest and that was made by Serega, I’ve never done a game for Kosmos though. On the one hand it’s good I don’t do all the games because I probably wouldn’t be able to keep up, and I want other people to get their ideas made, I’m still a fan, but on the other hand there are certain characters I don’t want other people to use, and it’d be a lot easier to maintain 10+ years of continuity that way.
As far as what characters we use or the storyline occasionally Vadim will ask for something specific but this year we’ve been getting all of our ideas from the forums. I have a lot of creative freedom, which is really cool, and I try to keep the ideas close to the suggestions, but sometimes people won’t be very specific with what they want, like with the newest Chloe game, so I’ll write something from scratch and try to make it stay in character and in continuity. I don’t submit a bunch of scripts at once but occasionally we’ll riff a bunch of ideas off each other for a while before we decide on something and then I’ll write a script. I play the old games A LOT to get things rights. That’s another big suggestion I have for people trying to write scripts- play the old games!
As far as ideas I’ve had that didn’t get made I’ve been very lucky, the ones I’ve wanted the most have mostly gotten made, like the Megamounds/Claus crossover. There’s only really been two I’ve written that didn’t break the rules and that I really wanted made but still weren’t lol. One was a contest entry where it was a Boomtown and WWE crossover that should still be on the forums somewhere, I thought it was a ton of fun but it was maybe not the sexiest game ever. I might revisit that at some point but we just got three straight Boomtown games so it would be a while. The other one is a game about a PAWG co-Ed who’s embarrassed that she’s got a giant ass and everyone else in MnF metropolis has giant boobs called . That one was super popular but took second in the voting rounds to another really popular game (schoolgirls curse, I’m still bitter lol I kid, I kid) and I’ve just never gotten back around to it, but it’s my most wanted game at this point and I plan to revisit it later this year.
If you or anyone else has ideas or suggestions, wants feedback, or even wants to discuss your favorite characters or games feel free to post on the forums! Like I said I’m still a fan, I love this site and all the characters, I want it to keep going strong with lots of diverse ideas from different people!
