Hey! Long time member of the website, just never really decided to create an account.
There’s a game that was previously created for the 2022 WeightGaming game jam called Voracious riches which was created by someoneinflative which if you somehow haven’t played or seen it I suggest giving it a play here: Voracious Riches by SomeoneInflative
I really enjoyed this game and it’s mechanics but from what I’ve seen there hasn’t been any updates to it recently which I get since it was only for a gain jam, but I decided to take inspiration from that game to create a game that I can enjoy just as much and that way if I’m like “Hey this game could use blah blah…” then I can just add more and more content as I go.
A few things I plan to add to it are the things like Weight gain, Inflation, Blueberry, Stuffing and probably some other things. Also I know some people like things more than others so I might do options in the settings to toggle what you want and just try to find a way to balance the game regardless of preference (e.g Weight gain enabled, Inflation disabled, popping disabled, stuffing enabled, stuff like that). I’m more into inflation but want this to be a game that captures the majority of groups here on the website. Enabling different options will come after I get the general gameplay loop finished.
If anyone want’s to do the sprites for the game let me know since art is my weakness, otherwise I can figure that part out. Any suggestions for content in the game feel free to comment.
Downside is I get distracted SUPER easily, since having more than one monitor obviously means I’ll end up programming 5% of the time then 95% watching something this project my take awhile.
When I get things planned out and set in stone I’ll make a post in Projects to update occasionally on progress for the game. I can’t imagine the game will take THAT long so long as I don’t get distracted too much, for now though I need sleep.
