Sorta Important Poll: Showtime Powerup

(And Powerup overhaul in development!)


Hey, all!

So while the main objective currently is to remove as many of the remaining issues and bugs the game still has in it (which fortunately I've been been having luck in doing so), I've also got an idea that should make certain aspects of the game more accessible to everyone.

So it's still very early in the process, but I'm thinking this is what will be changed to overhaul the Powerups:

  1. Make them function similar to Bytes and Chips, in that you can only select a few for use in battle. This should reduce screen clutter and place more importance on what is brought in to a fight.

  2. Make tiers that will determine how hard a Powerup is to obtain. Thinking it'll be ranked as Common, Rare and Super Rare.

  3. Make Powerups more readily accessible. I'm considering making them obtainable in chests (as an alternate reward), the Fishing Hole minigame's gift box, and even adding in a spare FNAP character to sell them. (Since I do still have a few of those left to use.)

  4. Make more Powerup types. Gonna add more that should be helpful in both defense and offense.

And that brings us to the subject of this poll.

One of the ideas I had for one of these new Powerups would allow the team to tap into the power of Showtime abilities!

(Though at a lower power output to encourage the acquisition of the real deal.)

Got a few ideas on how to tackle this, but I figured I'd ask and see what would be preferred.

Here's a quick rundown of the options:

  1. Make a common type that only uses the Showtime skill of the currently active character

  2. Make a rare type that uses the Showtime skills of the active party

  3. Make a super rare one that uses the Showtime skills of the entire party

That's about it for now. Hopefully I'll have more to show off about this soon.

'Till next time!

Still deciding if it's worth committing to a full rebuild, but I at least figured out a better way to handle the party swapping mechanic.

First signs of danger.

Got a (mostly stable) demo ready for the occasion!

While I chip away at the code for XL, I might as well show off the fruits of another thing I had tinkered with: modding custom music into Bionicle Heroes.

Suppose it was rude to take down the demo and not at least show off something as compensation.

Can it be done?

(Also, Happy New Year)

So, Plan B: The remainder of tonight will run V1 of a solo OCN mode, with an updated version coming tomorrow during the end of the con.

(And a further refined public release of this later on. If there's interest.)

I know it's completely unintentional, but I swear this is the universe trying to convince me to dig my old handiwork out of retirement and do something with him.

New look, new direction.
