Making an app for Monika (A Proposition I guess?) #7834

It really depends on the level of integration you're envisioning here, like do you want some sort of server API or more data saved to disk in specific locations. The former is unlikely unless you're good at network security or know someone who is. Additionally I'm against putting any character sprites in an app as I don't want to risk breaking the modding guidelines. |

It would be a side loaded app, not distributed on the play store. The app couldn't exist as a stand alone program and would be directly tied to DDLC. The content I would like to put at least would probably be the DDLC menu background with the characteristic pop up text boxes and buttons, not the character sprites so much. It would feel DDLC like. The buttons would be like letting Monika know that you are where you wanted to take her and she could save the location. I wouldn't be doing any server side stuff, any data would be saved in the app itself and then integrated into MAS, so definitely more of a 'data saved to disk in specific locations' type of setup. |

Can you make an outline of your plan? Like:

@ThePotatoGuy
It would take some work to make it good. If it's done right though, it definitely brings Monika closer to our reality and adds a whole new dynamic to the mod. I am well versed in Python and could help with the logic, but with no experience in Renpy though, it is probably best for others to handle that.
Let me know what you think. |

If this ever ends up being created and added, I'm gonna beg my parents to get me an Android phone or tablet haha |

If this is still in the works, I would love to volunteer any help I can give in writing dialogue and/or helping with visuals and UI. I have very little knowledge on the coding side but I would be excited to help out with making things look pretty. |

life got in the way. I'm thinking of starting it up again as I already did start on something small. I guess if there is still interest then I will be more inclined to pursue something. |

So I am a dev and do a lot of Python. I also really like this mod. I was thinking about making an app for taking Monika with you to places, take pictures, etc. It would follow the fan creation rules as it wouldn't be independent of DDLC.
I already have a skeleton app in Kotlin currently (android since android is much more open when it comes to side loading apps). I have a basic understanding of what the project is but far from any true understanding. Tying the functionality of the app into MAS without knowledge of how the core works would probably be quite painful for all of us. Before I go all in making this app, would any of you dev's be interested in integrating it into MAS? I would be much more motivated if that were the case.
