I'm imagining a game where you can recruit goons to your own place and then hang out there. Not like Overlord or something where you use them to fight, they just come and chill with you after.

It could be a place like the Penguin's Iceberg Lounge.
>>
You could call it 'Castle Town'...

I'm imagining a more modern sort of game, like Gotham. I guess that could work if it's like a medieval themed bar or something.

if you are recruiting goons, then you can't just "come and chill" with them, that relationship is nonsense
you need to be like a cool mastermind supervillain to manage a club, and then invite flying bricks or spacefaring pirates and commiserate over all the times you fumbled world domination

>>743419586
god fucking damn it
you deltarubes are fucking toehoe tier when it comes to timewasting thread ruination
no doubt you will take that as a compliment, but i assure you it's not

I imagine you're running a bar and you have your gang there, but also other low lives you can attract to the establishment. Either by defeating them in battle, or convincing them it's a cool place to hang out, or whatever. Not necessarily the whole game either, maybe it's just a place you can go between missions or whatever.

Just make it a management sim where you manage the people who tend the Lounge but also the guys you boss around for your evil schemes behind the scenes. It shouldn't be overly complex or time consuming. That way you can talk to people directly and even follow character stories that develop as you progress, kinda like VA-11 Hall-A except you're learning about the lives of henchmen and visiting villains.
>>
>>743420356
Yeah that's probably the best way to handle it honestly. I thought of VA-11 Hall-A too, but I don't picture it just copying that exactly. I guess I'd want it to be more of a place you can actually walk around and shoot pool too. But a mix of your henchmen and other villains' henchmen would be good, it'd end up like a Venture Bros. thing.
>>
>>743420459
Not just henchmen of course, other big villains would visit. You could even have a Matches Malone type character who's an undercover hero.

Would be cool managing an underworld bar. Having to balance profits with not exposing your illegal activities. Covering things up when the cops arrive to scope it out, etc.

There's some small indie games that have tried something similar. Nothing with supervillains though.

Call it the Ice Palace or something

I remember these games, but they have non-humans(non-whites and women) in them:

He also wanted to fuck Selina Kyle in Batman Returns, despite her being way out of his league
>>
>>743419487
Sounds like shit, but you can just vibe code it and try it out.

I wish that getting recruits vs fighting everyone was more impactful

I love that clueless people (me) dont know and ruin the undertale faggotry by talking about Batman.
>>
>>743422285
That's something a lot of games with similar ideas get wrong. Not enough differences between routes. If I made this game, I'd make big differences based on how many and which allies or enemies you make.
>>
>>743422413
It's a triple fake
>sincere game idea thread disguised as a stealth batman thread disguised as a stealth deltarune thread disguised as an insincere game idea thread

>>743422569
Either that, or it's all of the above.

Cool concept for a game though, and Batman TAS rules. Didn't like Penguin's more normal look for his redesign in the New Adventures of Batman and Robin as much.
>>
>>743422569
Gotta keep the jannies guessing. Make them earn their pay figuring it out.
