Seeing the new interactions between characters makes me wonder if there is an opportunity to provide an extra skill challenge for the player in securing bonus food items. What if the player can encounter other knights also traversing the castle and possibly steal from them?
Imagine if you will: you’re traversing a level and suddenly another knight bursts onto the scene hotly pursued by the pig knight brandishing a crossbow! You could let the scripted event play out and let them escape the scene (they would ignore the player) or, by intercepting the escaping knight, you yoink their food pouch from them- though this means PK will be gunning after you now until you escape the chamber!
Could be another means to add bonus food items to a level along with the hidden exploration secrets and platforming challenges as mentioned in Devlog #1.
