Poll 2 - Update v0.6.0 Content
Added 2021-07-20 04:56:43 +0000 UTCTime for another poll (but second time posting this since the first had the wrong poll settings)!
As some of you may know, the currently in progress update (v0.5.0) will largely be focused on new tiles, a new pause and menu system, UI adjustment and improvements, sound system improvements, resolution updates and a new half belly size. This poll will be determining what will be worked on for the FOLLOWING update, version 0.6.0.
This will determine a sizable chunk of content for the game (at least in terms of what will be added first) - as with the last powerup poll, both options entail content that WILL be added to the game regardless, but only content of the winning choice will be releasing in v0.6.0, with the other option either in the following update or at some later time depending on how they best fit in the development process.
Option 1 will see v0.6.0 including the 3 prey belly capacity as well as the immobile 4 prey belly, in addition to a way to earn experience to spend on perks of various skill trees (including a predator ability tree, prey ability tree, stealth and agility tree, and a combat tree) as its main features, but MAY also include several other smaller additions like consumable items, stores, and other abilities that may better compliment the new skill trees such as stealth swallowing, melee blocking, and a belly bash (depending again on the time it takes to develop the main features).
Option 2 will see v0.6.0 including at least one new level with new level hazards and features to match, as well as at least 2 new enemies - one being the alien serpent (think along the lines of the XCOM Vipers) and the second being the robot pilots (shrunken station crew used to better control all robot enemies). The alien serpents will be predator enemies capable of eating the player, and the shrunken pilots will be available as a quick snack once their robot mechs have been destroyed (if you can catch them!). Again depending on how long it takes to develop the aforementioned features, this option MAY also include features like the power slam (a ground pound ability that scales in size and damage the more prey in your belly) as well as another new station crew enemy akin to the sentry and dasher enemies (though this one will be ranged).
This poll will be open for 30 days - tier 4 members, don't forget to cast your second vote on the poll following this one!
Comments
Just a note that one extra vote on option 1 WILL NOT COUNT as it is my own vote - apparently Patreon lets creators vote in their polls and doesn't have a way to remove your own vote as I have just found out!
