While the game uploads... here's a quick guide

It has been two days with nonstop work to finish this game. In the end, it was much harder than I believed, as this one is by far the most complex of the superheroine series. It contains around 2,000 images, a bunch of animations and expressions, and some mechanics that will make every match different and unique. Because of the complexity, this 1.0 version will likely contain bugs that I would need you to report me. 

I posted before that I called this game a "psychological puzzle". 

GUIDE FOR THE GAME

INTRO

Mxyztplk is a serious threat to the Spankingverse, and Supergirl is the only hero who can stop him. To make Mxyztplk say his name backwards, Supergirl must give him the OTK-spanking of his life. Unfortunately, Mxyztplk's evil magic made Supergirl lost most of her skills. No more super-view, super-ear, super-speed. She has turned into a dumb, slow-reaction superheroine. And to make things worse, she forgot how properly smack a naughty bum. The only way to recover her spankskills is with practice with a real naughty boy (poor Melvin).

To play with her, Mxyztplk shapeshifted into our well known Melvin, and created "clones" of some other versions of Melvins in the Spankingverse. One Melvin is Mxyztplk, another is a kryptonite bomb, the other a magical illusion, and the last one, the original Melvin. 

WHO'S WHO?

The first objective of the game is to find out which one is who. The 4 Melvins are in different locations (Spankytown College, Paddlying Street, Sorebum Park and Slipper bridge) and to achieve it, you must be quite a good observer, and try all the options available. Supergirl can perform several actions.

Chat. Unless you chat too much to a ticking time bomb, or a magical illusion, chat is safe. 

Heat vision Destroy a bombs but incinerates the real Melvin. 

Kick and punch Resets bombs or illusion's and is the only way to get rid of potential danger. Problems come when you punch or kick Melvin or Mxyzplk.

Hug. Will reveal the real Melvin if he's in a good mood, and will make him happy if he's in a bad mood. If you hug a bomb, an illusion or Mxyztplk, it will be a bit annoying.

Kick the "family jewels" The only way to destroy an illusion, but will take you into serious trouble if done to Melvin or Mxyztplk.

Peepee inspection This one reveals a bomb. Melvin will become a perv if he's not already one. Not recommended for Mxyztplk and the illusion.

Show boobs. Reveals an illusion. Melvin will go into perv mood like in peepee inspection. Not recommended for Mxyztplk and the bomb.

Lecture (punishment threat) This one helps to confirm or unconfirm suspicions. Melvin and Mxyztplk react according to their mood, while bomb and illusions most of the time react weirdly.

Smack the bum. This is the only way Supergirl will remember her punishing skills, and the only way is by smacking the real Melvin. The problem is that it must be a deserved punishment, which means the little perv has to misbehave first. Once she learned bare bum smacking and has destroyed illusion and bomb, you can go after Mxyztplk and go for the next Universe or win the game (There are 2 universes in this version and there will be 4 in the deluxe version). If Supergirl punishes him before those two requirements are done, you won't win the game or clear a level, but may get a reward. However, it's not that easy. Everytime Mxyztplk is punished or Melvin recieves an unfair sore bum, a superheroine or supervillain will come to avenge the poor boy. It will be a hard battle that you won't like to lose! If you don't defeat the unwanted enemy, there's no reward.

Smacking the bum of an illusion or bomb is something VERY DANGEROUS.

TIPS

As I said, you must be quite an observer, as every little detail counts. Did Melvin came happily running and then got angry? Then you chatted with him and turned sad? It could mean you're dealing with a fake one, or also, that the real Melvin is in BIPOLAR MOOD. Then you can lecture him or hug him to see what happens. The problem is that if it's a bomb or an illusion, the time is ticking and Supergirl may be doomed from an extra interaction. Let's imagine the Melvin comes happy. You chat 2 times and he's happy, but in the third one, he turns sad. That would mean he's for sure a fake one! But which one? A bomb or an illusion? You can try Show Boobs or Peepee inspection. However, it may be fatal if you choose the wrong one. The wisest decision would be kick away the fake Melvin and move to another location, interact with another Melvin, and so on. There are arount 50 different expressions and 8 possible moods. HAPPY, SAD, PERV, ANNOYING, ANGRY and BIPOLAR for Melvin and Mxyztplk, WEIRD, CRAZY and ANNOYING for bomb and illusion. As you can imagine, it would be somewhat easy to spot the real Melvin if he's in a SAD mood. But if he's in the ANNOYING or BIPOLAR, he can be easily taken for a fake one!

TIME IS TICKING.

Without time involved, anyonw would eventually figure out where and who is the bomb, illusion, Melvin and Mxyztplk. To make his evil game more funny, Mxyztplk cursed Supergirl. At noon, she will turn a berserker and would only be able to perform 4 actions. HEAT VISION (destroy bomb), KICK FAMILY JEWELLS (destroy illusion), KISS THE GOOD BOY (Melvin will get his prize!!!) and PUNISH MXYZTPLK. Any wrong decision, will mean the Spankingverse is doomed. Before reaching that point, any succesful action (win a battle, destroy a trap or fairly punish a naughty boy), will make the clock go backwards and gain you an extra action. Any unsuccesful action (Losing a battle or chosing wrong), will make the clock step forward.

GAME OVER.

As in a vintage game, you have 3 lives. Supergirl dies when a bomb explodes, she loses 3 battles, and fails the Phantom Zone. I won't say how to get into the Phantom Zone and spoil the funny moment. The only thing I can say, is that in the Phantom Zone there are some nice rewads. 

BATTLES

As you chose in a poll, the battle system is based on rolling dice (two six dice) I made it very quick and dyamic, so that the ones who voted against it are more likely to be pleased. It works like this: according to the enemy, you choose a 1 point, 2 point or 3 point action. If you win a 1 point roll, you inflict 1 damage. If you lose, you get 1 point damage. This is a way where you can manipulate the rolls in your advantage. For example, if you have 3 health points, and the enemy 5, I'd recommend choosing a 1 point action. Let's imagine you win 2 and lose 2. Your health goes to 1 and the enemy's to 3. Then you go for a 3 point action, win the roll and win the battle. Besides health, there's another important attribute: POWER. If you rise your power by one point, you won't never again throw the lowest number. POWER=0, you can roll 2 to 12. POWER=1, you can roll 3 to 12. POWER=2, roll 4 to 12. It looks little, but I've tried it and it makes quite a difference. The maximum power will be 5, that will be the power of the ultimate enemy in the deluxe version. (it will be a massive surprise who she will be!!!)

SAVING NOT ALLOWED!

I did this to make this game as a vintage one, and to avoid cheats for a competition I'm planning. You will only be able to save the game after a major achievement. Because of it, I strongly recommend to close background software that may make the game crash. In my PC, I've found that anytime an annoying process triggers, tyranobuilder is likely to freeze. And NEVER click the dice animation, because it will be a certain crash. 

I'm a bit thrilled to see how this game works. I'm not sure if it will be a succesful one because it's too hillarious and very different. I put some goofiness in it that flowed naturally and I didn't intend to. Anyway, for the next one and last in the Superheroine series, I plan something completely opposite. A dark, serious story with no Melvins. A mystery genre with some gore where Wonder Woman would deal with real criminals and assasins. But before the amazonian, there's a dark girl named Angela in the projects lane...

I'll post the link when the uploading process finishes....
