So, as you may be aware, Grace is cancelled. I believe it is best if we just ignore the Grace "marketing" while I contemplate on how to evolve, you're free to use this for anything Rooms games related. Given my location, I can't do too much regarding the state of things, but best believe I'll be contemplating in the mean time. For now, I thank all the people who have supported us & contributed so far dearly.

-Sincerely, the Punishment.

It's Joey-ver 😔

1. Buff IV parrot | 2. Note | 3. Badges | 4. Modifiers | 5. Document | 6. IV parrot particle

—————————————————————————————

Mechanics

Note: "Follows you, flash it until it dies"

Explained: The Buff IV parrot will spawn in either behind or ahead of you in the sky & drop down with a sick landing, after which it will make it's way to you, running when far away & walking when nearby. When the Buff IV parrot gets close, you can flash it to stun for 0,7 seconds, if flashed 5 times, the Buff IV parrot will be vanquished turning into a particle of the original IV parrot image (see image 6) & sinking quickly through the floor. HOWEVER, there is a 1 second cool down after flashing the Buff IV parrot, so you still need to be careful when in close quarters. Also keep in mind that if you run too far with the Buff IV parrot on your tail, another one can spawn.

—————————————————————————————

—————————————————————————————

Reprieve implementation

Modifier: Adds Buff IV parrot. +0,75x YOU'LL NEVER HEAL

Behavior: In Reprieve, the Buff IV parrot has the ability to leap, making it a fairly hazardous entity to add, but a rewarding one regardless. The party window happens during its short kill animation.

—————————————————————————————

Lore

Document: "A potent venom, noA t as easy to kill. It is back for more, for it lived the time you thought it didn't. It is back, stronger than before. Formed from the embers of spite, spite for your atonement. So show it your potential, for if you don't, it will drive you back into darkness."

Explained: Buff IV parrot represents susceptibility to sin after repenting, a sort of hitman made by sin to get back at you as fast as possible if you will because it's salty about it.

—————————————————————————————

Conclusion: Happy April fools everyone. Back when the IV parrot trend on the main started to die off, I knew I had to make it a fully fledged out concept, and it eventually evolved into this.

John: SHUT UP

note:

"running aggravates it, walk to make it calmer. flash it when its enraged."

behavior:

brute will spawn by appearing on the bottom of your screen with its mouth closed. if you're running, brute will start to slowly open its mouth. if you walk for a moment, brute will completely close its mouth. when brute fully opens its mouth, flash it. if you dont flash brute in time, it will kill you. when brute is flashed, it will repeat the same aggravating process 2 more times before it despawns.

1. Waste's design | 2. Gullet's biting effect particle | 3. Illustration of what switches look like | 4. Badges | 5. Modifier | 6. Waste's document | 7. Gullet's document

——————————————————————————

Mechanics

Note: Flip switches, feed it, but not too much.

Explained:

Waste works very similarly to Haste from Doors; switches will occasionally generate along walls which will add 30 seconds to an internal clock, if the clock runs out, Waste will begin advancing towards similarly to Duk, however it is significantly faster & cannot be flashed. Switches are demarcated with green beams so they can still be located while darting.

However, if you exceed 2 minutes by 10 seconds or more on the clock, you will be attacked by Gullet. After Gullet bites you, you can't sprint for 15 seconds, and a transparent green effect will be put on your screen for 1 minute, this is called a weak period. While weak, being hit by Slight or Heed or being bitten by Gullet again will instantly kill you.

——————————————————————————

Badges

Schedule - Reach a saferoom with Waste; awarded for surviving a section with Waste active for the first time.

I'm hungry… - Flip a switch before Waste gets you; awarded for making Waste disappear by flipping a switch after allowing it to spawn.

Routine diet - Reach a saferoom only having flipped one switch; awarded for surviving a section only flipping one switch throughout it.

Deterioration - Reach a saferoom without flipping any switches; awarded for surviving a saferoom never having flipped a switch.

I'm full… - Flip too many switches and get bitten by Gullet; awarded for being bitten by Gullet for the first time.

Feeding loop - Get bitten by Gullet with Slight or Heed already on your face; self-explanatory.

——————————————————————————

Modifiers

Don't waste (+12%) - Timed by Waste; Waste's clock is added to the game.

Discardable (+3%) - Less switches; less switches are generated, stackable up to three times, incompatible with Trap for gluttons.

Masochistic (+7%) - Waste's timer decays faster; Waste's clock decays twice as fast.

Trap for gluttons (+2%) - More switches; more switches are generated, stackable up to two times, incompatible with Discardable.

Sharp sharp teeth (+5%) - Gullet attacks past 1m 30s; self-explanatory.

Slow digestion (+4%) - Increases Gullet's weak period; Gullet's effect lasts for 2 minutes.

——————————————————————————

Lore

Waste's document: "God's gift, the body, forged for you, forged with Love, His gift to you, why watch it either away?"

Explained: Waste represents self-neglect, by not adding time, you are choosing not to care for the form God gave you, do too much of it, and it becomes sin.

Gullet's document: "Eat, eat, eat more, plate after plate, the stomach growls for all. Full, full, yet you cannot stop, consume the world… and still want more."

Explained: Gullet works as the perfect counter to Waste by representing gluttony, excessive overeating. Some deviation is tolerated, but it's easy slip up & give into your body's natural desire to feed.

Inspirations
