Thinking of a tiny fangame and feeling a bit confident about, only to realize it's main/sole gameplay gimmick will turn everyone off.


So Pointless will have this thing in chapter 2 called Wheezlex, and sometimes you'll get mail from people asking to play against. And for thought about a fangame/fanmod thing that's my own interpretation of it form what I can understand.

In the fabled City you (yes that's the artstyle I would've gone with) would go up against 18-20 opponents to become the new champion. The game would consist of battles where you throw a rubber ball with dice in it at your opponent and vice versa. After every attack you'll get a random number from 1 to 6 which would be added to an invisible counter. Once either you or your opponent fall over (Attacks have a 5% chance of inflecting fallen) the "fight" would end and who ever had the higher number would win, that make sense? Also after every like 5 turns the chance of fallen would increase. You could also pay a "fairy" to increase your chances of winning.

But just today it hit me that this game would be unfair and unfun even with the fairy. So yeah, I didn't want to make something so bullsh!t and have scrapped that idea. I know I could've just made it so you would naturally have a slightly higher chance to roll a 6, but still.

You don't do that, even as a joke it's not funny.
