Devlog - 2Weeks

Here is my "Game Design Document", which is just a .txt where i kept track of some notes and what progress i did on what day, and how long i worked on that day (Not everything included, like smaller bug fixes or redoing some sprites)

Theme: "LIGHT IS THE ENEMY"

Extra Rules: "TOGGLING"  "FLOATING"  "PURE TALENT"

Title Ideas: WitchForth, My Ally is A Lie, Allie

(Scrapped) Idea: 

powerful villain that you cant beat

doesnt have physical body

villain and hero accidently fall into a large dungeon

you need to team up with the villain so you dont die

will give player temporary strength using lightrays

also gives the player weaknesses, tries to sabotage player sometimes

villain needs the player but also doesnt want the player to get too strong when getting out

lightrays can also empower smaller enemies against villains choice

game can be played while avoiding light, but makes clearing the dungeon harder, but also makes the bossfight at the end easy

but if the dungeon is cleared easily by using light a lot, the bossfight will be harder

(Villain fight and narrative still planned for full game, but couldnt fit into the jam result)

Possible rule imbedement:

player starts floating when in a lightray

ability to toggle the lamp you have

pure talent in the way that no randomized stuff, more about strategy

game details:

top down, pixelart, in abandoned dungeon area, boss fight, strategy, linear

Game functions:

after staying in light for a bit you get empowered, start floating, the more you stay the stronger you get for that duration,

but you also get more debuffs for the longer you stay and the more you rely on it.

point and click target system onto enemies

lamp that follows you around and points out dangers in the form of shining a light on them.
