Hey Everyone, just want to send out a really rough prototype.
It sounds a bit funny, but the idea I had was inspired from an episode from an old cartoon I watched when I was younger :
I think it could cook more in the oven. The core idea of the game is to collect candy from houses (the world is in a perpetual state of Halloween). The candies you get are basically a form of currency to purchase cosmetics and some things to do.
A general idea I want to make with this game is just to have a fun and casual time with friends. Grind candies to get special cosmetics you want, and pay to do stuff like playing small simple games. Think of it like using candies as quarters at an arcade / going to a carnival. Things like a ring toss, corn maze, etc..
Right now it's networked for local play and you just collect candies for now, but would love to hear some feedback or suggestions on the idea and maybe how you would go about monetizing and planning for content. I am just working on this game by myself right now.
Here is the game link (there are install instructions provided):
