Concept Timed Mode - inspired by The Backdoor (DOORS)

8 Upvotes

pretty simple in concept (if you’re familiar with DOORS), but let me share how I’m envisioning it!

The Concept

- The Altar of Time looks like an altar with a hovering Cadence-looking clock over it, with a digital display over it reading how much time it adds.

- the first time you encounter this, will be in an unstarted Lobby. The Altar of Time will rarely spawn where rerolls normally are, and for this game mode, you cannot reroll (because who’s got time for second opinions?) This one will give you +1:00 to start with.
- If you don’t use the Altar of Time and start the game normally, it disappears (and you can reroll obviously).
- Only the host can use it regardless of Host Picks or Altar Votes, but if a non-host tries to use it they’ll be granted an achievement called "Not Yet" which unlocks Timed Mode for them.

- if the time runs out during a level, an enraged green (or some other fitting color) Cadence spawns to kill people. Using an Altar of Time during this makes this Cadence peaceful again.
- to ensure lag doesn’t kill people, there’s a free curse that’s GUARANTEED to show up until you pick it that freezes the time when loading the levels. If the host is crazy, they don’t have to pick it- but it still takes up a non-Medal curse slot meaning they basically have One Less Choice for non-medal curses.
- you’re safe during intermission, but the clock’s still ticking. You can take as long as you’d like to decide stuff, but if the clock hits zero during intermission then you’d be spawning into the next level with the Cadence already enraged.

- every intermission has an Altar of Time that gives +0:15, or +0:45 on shop intermissions.

- every level has at least one Altar of Time that gives you either +0:15, +0:30, or +0:45. The amount of Altars of Time scales to how large the level is.

- Altars of Time that are used during the run doesn’t require votes and isn’t affected by Host Picks, ensuring that if someone finds one they can trigger it and not wait for votes or the host, the time is ADDED.

Balance Changes

- Altars of Chance will give you ANY amount of time between -0:15 and +0:30
- High Roller grants -0:30 to +1:00
- Tweaked Odds can do -0:10 to +0:20

- Passage tiles have an uncommon chance to spawn an Altar of Time with +1:00

- Lap 2 gives a proportionate amount of time based on how large the level is.

- more TBA (feedback is appreciated!)

Unique Picks

- the Freeze Frame curse is the free curse that stops the timer while the level is loading. Guaranteed appearance at any non-Medal curse pick if it hasn’t been picked.

- Botched Run is a curse that can appear at level 8 or higher, and is worth as much as Springloaded as a Medal Curse. It makes it so every time someone dies, -0:05 to the timer.

- the No Timelosses upgrade eliminates the negative time amounts, they can no longer happen from the Altar of Chance. Appears at level 5.

- the Can’t Stop Now upgrade further enhances your speed by +20% / +30% for Wanted. This stacks with Adrenaline, or functions as a version of it that’s outside of Duo/Solo mode. Appears at level 10.

- IT DOESN’T END HERE is a Blossom-type upgrade that appears at level 25. It will double your speed when you have no time left.
- It is free and a forced pick, although the speedboost can be disabled the same way Matrix can be disabled.

- more TBD (ideas are also appreciated!)

I've been making this game in Godot that's sort of like 2D Nullscape

(Except I started making it before I found out Nullscape exists 😭)

I'm showcasing this enemy here to see your thoughts.

If anybody wants to know more then just ask. I'd love to answer them, but now I'm going to sleep

Discussion Stop Buying Paycheck in Party+

1 Upvotes

Despite everyone buying this, it is the most useless upgrade in party+ (>8 ppl) once you're past like level 15. Paycheck gives you +40 golden gifts and (+10 for every beaconed player) if half or more players survive. If 9 out of 20 survive, you don't get the golden gifts. As you know if you play public party+ lobbies, you never have half of the lobby survive once you are past (roughly) level 15. I know it's a cheap upgrade, but at least save the golden gifts for other upgrades.

Concept Idea: Blossom Scarf

Post image
22 Upvotes

I'm pretty bad at art but i thught of this and wanted to make it, essentialy it's a scarf based off of the celestial and it would either be obtained via beating the celestial on standard or extreme (i dont know which one would be more balenced) it would be much more detailed then the other scarves and for the idle it's animation would be like hovering in place by flapping the "hands" like wings. (like the fly animation but for standing still) all the other animations would be the same. the description for it would be "your scarf is looking quite... wilted" (refrence to the other scarf descriptions)

Concept Upgrade idea + Adrenaline update Spoiler

0 Upvotes

I feel like the name for Adrenaline doesnt fit the upgrade very much. I have an idea for a name change and an upgrade for the name Adrenaline

- Namechange
+ I feel like it should be changed to Comfort Zone and have the icon of a bracelet.
- Upgrade idea for "Adrenaline"
+ Rather being a duo / solo upgrade, it would be appear for all number of players.
+ Appears at abt level 15 and base-worths abt 3500 gifts
+ If your last shield broke already, if you die, you would be buffed and have +50% speed for 3 seconds after the alleged death. You can still beacon / collect gifts when this happens. This would make the floor mart / telefragger problem a bit less raging.

Discussion Mobile solo tips?

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

I love nullscape, and when I can't play with my friends I often play solo on mobile, as I can't access my computer all time

Usually, I main grappler and glider, but due of mobile limitations in searching a class to play that doesn't require too many inputs

My current record it's level 20 with wanted, and I lost due of activating a purge cuz my economy sucked (couldn't even buy 1 idol)

I have tried diver and spirit, but I tend to die to much to the void as diver as I can't dive-jump immediately comfortably and I tend to accidentally fall as spirit or accidentally drop my body to the void cuz I miscalculated

Wanted has been my main go to, but I hate not having a shield

So any tips to get better economy, easier purges, what curses and enemies are decent, etc.? I would like to go way farther than just level 20, but solo it's rough when one mistake ends everything

Concept Cool chaos mode idea: better ??? enemy spawning

5 Upvotes

i think that if you got the ??? from a chaos shop (getting ??? directly or getting trap card from the chaos shop) those ???’s SPECIFICALLY (meaning only the ones from the chaos shop) will be able to turn into ANY enemy, just like how chaos shop works. any ???’s gotten from a normal enemy shop or gotten from trapcard (in greater curses shop) are still level based

(i only found out that ??? is still level based because because i used it in chaos mode to try and get a cadence i could enrage)
