Rodent Warriors Development - Treasure Chests

Azucena and I were very happy to make version 0.1 available. We realise that we still have a lot of work to do in order to create the final version!

Since we are still in the process of learning what we need to do in order to get people to actually play the game (marketing), we decided to work on a feature that 

1. Would be fairly simple to implement.
2. Would add something to the game play experience.
3. Would enhance the existing game play.
4. Could be expanded in the future.

Based on the above we chose: Treasure Chests

The quests in Rodent Warriors take place in a maze, and adding treasure chests will hopefully give players a greater feeling of exploration. Players already receive rewards for defeating enemies, and now they will hopefully want to find out what lies at the end of a corridor. Is there a chest there or not? 

In order to make it exciting for the player, the chests need to contain a worthwhile treasure. Therefore, the idea is to place Gems in the chests. Gems will be of various qualities and types and will be used to enhance items that have been crafted by the player. The idea of enhancing crafted items was already on the To Do list, so now we will have a way to make that happen!

Of course since this a funny game about Rodents, instead of Treasure Chests we will probably have Radioactive Waste Containers, and the heroes will be finding something like "Magic Juice" that makes their equipment better.

So that's the latest idea in a nutshell. Stay tuned over the coming days and we will have more posts about the actual development of this idea.

Please post comments and or suggestions if you have ideas about this or any other idea for the game.

Thanks for reading!
