It's time to go meet the kiddies!  Drive around in your van, delighting all the children in the neighbourhood!

Take them back to your house for some *secret activities* 
Watch out for cops and adults!  They don't seem to understand your "hobby".

And yes, this game has both *adult* and *educational* content.

*UPDATED TO 1.000*
 -The game is now complete to my satisfaction.  Still, if you see a bug, let me know.
 -Added sound + music.
 -Added plenty more text to stage 2.
 -Added saves.
 -Added an Endings screen.  You can watch unlocked endings and learn how to unlock more!
 -Added a stats screen.  This helps you track your progress.
 -Fixed numerous little things you probably won't notice.

As always, keep the death threats to a minimum!

Well, as long as you're tasteful about it, you shouldn't have much trouble. Child molestation is one of those subjects that can really get you in trouble nowadays, with the witch-hunt mentality people have of it. Yes, I'm talking police here.

I'd try to keep it somewhat abstract, if possible. A message can be strong without it being explicit.

[Aquin]

I never said the game was about child molesting. 

[Radix]

I think this is an entertaining idea and I hope nobody gets on your case about it.

Even though I don't follow my own advice on this, if you have a good game in mind, fuck what people think.

But I'm guessing it's probably about distributing actual candy.

I shall never look at you the same again, Aquin. 

You could mod your idea though and instead rape adults. >_>





Your Van is nicely drawn/rendered.

[Aquin]

Thanks, it's not done yet guys.

Yeah, my game ideas are...kinda strange I guess.  And yeah, giving out candy and hanging out with kids is stage 1.

Stage 2 is the 'educational' part of the game.  As for the adult theme?  Well, I haven't decided yet if I want to include a, shall we say 'particular', part of the gameplay here. 

I hate to disappoint you guys, but I'm kind of a squeamish quiet prude.

[Melly]

This compo is great for people like you.

[KennEH!]

Why do I want to play this game?

[Melly]

Because deep down you're a bad person.

[KennEH!]

I knew it! Your post just reaffirmed my suspicions.

[Killerraven]

Okay, seriously, when did I give you permission to make a game about my day-to-day activities? 

[Cymon]

I hope you don't make it so that your avatar is taking children back to his home to play halo or some such. Leave it ambitious if you want, but don't sterilize or castrate the idea. ride the controversy. I hope someone comes along and actually suggests this game may help child molesters by giving them a harmless outlet for their... whatever.

[Aquin]

Cymon, this game is far from sterile.  It's making it hard to sleep at night. 

[Melly]

You might wanna give us some better hints about it, let us discuss how you could probably go about it in a way that's sensible, but without reducing its meaning.

[Aquin]

The truth is Melly, I haven't made up my mind on the outcome of Stage 2.  I have 6 weeks to worry about it though and I still plan to move forward with at least 80% of the game.

I'll fret about one thing at a time.
