making a buddy comedy game where you play as an accused criminal and have to get 1,000,000 dollars to afford the best lawyer in a fictional world. Your friend then learns about the case and decides to help you and you go on an episodic mission of trying to gain money either legally or illegally. If you illegally earn money you’ll lose Cred (placeholder) and if you don’t do things illegally or give away money at times you’ll earn Cred
Q: What is Cred?
A: Cred is my version of the Honor system from Red Dead Redemption and Karma from Fallout. Some gangs may have high Cred and award you for it. But some gangs may have low Cred and will offer you bounties to pay for your lawyer fees.
Q: how can I lose?
A: Too many crimes may lead to a higher sentence in which you’ll have to pay more for the lawyer. Or you’ll lose health from getting either shot, punched, or stabbed. If you lose all of your health you’ll die. And if you eventually commit enough crimes to receive a death sentence, you’ll obviously die.
Q: What characters can I play as?
A: You can play as either the protagonist or play as the friend. Both of them will have attributes and may be better in one way compared to the other one.
Overall, the game is basically GTA mixed with constantly maintaining your humanity.
