I love the concept!
I don’t usually like giving advice because we all know it’s complicated to do everything we had in mind, from scratch, within the given timeframe, but:
If you added a variable that makes the pace accelerate with each turn, that could be awesome!
Imagine that each turn your number of actions increases by 1, but the time to memorize them decreases (and the elevator animations are faster and more abrupt X) )
Anyway, great work!
Thank you! That’s exactly how it’s supposed to be if I ever decide to turn this into a real game.
Actually, I don’t even think the time would need to decrease. It might just as well increase with the number of actions. It would still make it much harder to form a strategy and memorize patterns. The idea is to add more synergies between items, making it necessary to make choices even before you start memorizing.
By the way, I really liked your game. And fun fact, some time ago I made a prototype with a very similar narrative: a runner in which a cat gets lost while chasing a butterfly and ends up running from its peaceful countryside home into a big futuristic city. The butterfly is actually a robotic one, created by an evil corporation to experiment on the cat. Every time the cat catches it, it gets a new implant that grants a new skill, and then another butterfly appears, triggering a new chase. At the end of the game, the cat is turned into a semi-robotic murder machine. I even created a Steam page for it, but eventually I got lost in other projects. One day I will go back to it and release it, I hope.
Great minds think alike, I guess :)
