Yol Haritası

🟠Trade Ins...

Still on roadmap. Didn't have the chance to give it enough thought yet. We really want to elaborate the retros loop before we bake this system meaningfully into it.

🟠Goals for your significant other...

This was an abstract title was a bit misunderstood by some. The idea was to provide some form of longer term goal setting to the player. Your significant other comes to you, fledgling game retail entrepreneur, and encourages you, and depending on your all time high balance every 30 days or so, we give you a 1-, 2-, or 3-trophies rating.

You can tell that this system may clash with the Lose Condition, as it provides more of a long-term tycoon experience, while the Lose Condition should have binary objectives (win / lose).

We have a design for the Lose Condition where you won't make you necessarily repeat the whole game and still be able to build up your empire over time, but we have not decided which system we will go with.

Most likely the Guild of Experts playtests will give a lot of guidance on this.

🟠Chronological release of games by generation...

Will have to do with the Goal Setting or Lose Condition . So pending.

🟠Lose Condition...

All I can say now that if you miss too may orders, something bad may eventually happen. But you can have control over how many orders you are allowed to miss until that cataclysm occurs.

🟠NPC and NPC behavior diversity...

Currently most NPCs have more or less very similar profiles: patience, basket size, chance to be a thief, speed, store browsing duration, health, defense, loot.

They all share physiological features and behave similarly when hit.

We have a chance for a huge diversity there, and a variety of behaviors, disagree?

Staying on roadmap.

🟠Weapons...

Self explanatory but not too meaningful until we have at least some diversity in NPC behaviors.

Staying on roadmap.

🟠NPC loot...

To be elaborated.

Most were positively surprised when receiving a large sum from the NPC loot but also when dropping items. To be elaborated.

🟠Shelf skins, counter skins, wallpapers...

Definitely. But you gotta earn them.

🟠Upgradable bank...

As you become a tycoon, the loans or deposit sizes may be meaningless to you. You need to be able to upgrade the bank, but earn the upgrades by using the bank, otherwise it creates exploits where in the early and mid-game, you may effectively have infinite money if we unlock large amounts early on.

🟠Dialogues with NPCs...

For God's sake, stop dancing around the NPCs as they walk by the store!! They still can't react to your buffooneries

🟠Buffoneries...

As we go
