Prompt 3:
The core verbs of this game would probably be to forage or to gather mushrooms. When the player collects all the mushrooms as a squirrel, the level seems to be completed and the mushrooms regrow on other platforms. The game mostly relies on the player collecting these mushrooms. Although another action for the player is also to walk and jump around the map. The player’s actions do not really require them to keep track of what they did because they are able to visually see what mushrooms are collected and still need to be collected. An indicator towards the top of the screen is also given of how many mushrooms the player has collected. A verb the game initiates on the player could be described as regrowing. After the player collects the mushrooms, they regrow on other platforms so the player can collect them again. These actions are automatic when the player collects mushrooms until the game ends. The player does not really have much of a reason to avoid or prevent the game from letting more mushrooms grow. The game does not really put the player in danger and the game can be played at the player’s own pace. The game’s map has different areas that the player is able to jump to. The player needs to properly aim and time their jumps to reach the upper platforms with mushrooms. These upper parts of the level create a different experience than the lower levels where it is more of simply walking.
