myPOPGOES fans, I need help with something.

If we add trading cards for the game on Steam, we also need badges. Badges are earned, and then levelled up, every time you collect all of the game's trading cards. I've attached a screenshot of the requirements for them, and the POPGOES Arcade badges as an example.

The trading cards themselves will be the character sheets from Bonnie Glade's diary. I'm already settled on that.

But what should the badges be?! I'm totally stumped.

My main issue/requirement is that there needs to be five normal badges and they need to feel like they get "better" as they go along. They can't just be representations of the five minigames, for example. Because Topping Juggle isn't "better", or an "upgrade", from Fishing. Makes no sense to assign one of the minigames to Level 1 and one to Level 4, etc.

I need five badges that represent the game, nicely, in a way that "progresses" from 1 to 5. And then a totally separate, special one, for the Foil badge. That one is on its own so it's a bit easier to work with.

My only idea so far is having the 1-5 badges illustrated with the pizza oven that's inside the toy, with a pizza inside it being cooked from 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%. But that's just not very exciting.

Please send me your ideas!

In November last year, I made one last song for POPGOES Arcade. It was a theme for The Puppet, and I suppose for Fighting Chance as a whole.

People seem to like it! A video for it will be going live later today/tomorrow.

Did you notice the "My Grandfather's Clock" motif in Fighting Chance's new track for The Puppet? I've made it clearer here, if you missed it!

Fun fact, in a previous attempt at making this theme, I accidentally referenced Toreador March instead...

The Popgoes Hex plushie has hit 400 units (80%)! Amazing. It's still available to order, until it hits 500!

The Puppet's theme has been added to the Steam OST for POPGOES Arcade!
