This.
To be clear, it's not bad being ambitious but you need to be realistic. Doing such a game
will take a lot of your time, even if you are not doing the graphics. So, if you are decided to do it, I would suggest:
1.- Plan all the stories with as much detail as possible before you start programming.
2.- Take Wolfschadowe advice and design modularly. If you have 3 stories try and see if you can make a game with just one of them and fewer girls. Write the script for that game.
3.- Post a teaser, like Wolfschadowe did. Maybe the script for a couple of scenes. This will allow people see that you have a clear idea that may appeal to potential colaborators. You will also get useful feedback.
I hope you can find someone to do the graphics and start a collaboration. I think that is the way to go if one wants to produce quality work as
tlaero and
phreaky prove. However, I guess that in order to find someone willing to do the graphics, and being this your first work, you will first have to show yourself that you are capable of finishing the project. No one likes to waste time and it is a fact that the majority of projects that are started are never finished.
