Amazing game, even more amazing art. I've seen a few ideas, but I had a couple ideas to make the characters more unique or to add new characters.
Dietician/Cook could have a chance to decrease/increase the size of an adjacent passenger (provided there's room, in the case of cook)
The Gourmand/VIP: Gives massive points, but always big enough to take up an entire train car. Would probably be better with upgrades to buy additional train cars.
The Fetishist: Has randomized preferences (revealed when hovering over them like any other character), including preferences no other character can have (such as being unbothered by Jogger's sweat, liking more crowded cars, preferring characters of a certain weight class, etc)
I want to make a sort of blue collar/construction worker type character, but I have no idea what they could do aside from being a Jogger clone.
The Performer: Will randomly increase or decrease the mood of all passengers in the car, depending on how well their performance is.
The Gamer: Immune to cart-wide effects, good and bad, such as Jogger's sweat or Mascot's entertainment (if that's a thing). Can still be impacted by these effects if the character they originate from is adjacent to them.
But no matter what, I enjoy the hell out of this game and it's art, even if I can't seem to get past the mid-twenties in stage count (not sure if skill issue or not TBH). Good luck in the jam!
Edit: I realize now that the jam has ended. Congrats on the well-deserved win!
