Guitar Crush - Devlog #12 (Patreon)
Content
Hello, everyone! This will be a lengthy one...
In the last few weeks Guitar Crush received some new features that were very much asked by a lot of you, translations, optional day limit, and other things, and I plan to make the experience in the game better with each update.
So, for the next update I have plans to polish a very unfinished part of the gameplay.
Gathering minigame:
As some of you may be aware, one thing that I hate the most in games is gridding and repetitive boring minigames, and right now the gathering is exactly that, boring and repetitive.
That's why I'm doing a complete rework on the minigame, to make it more interesting, increase the amount of items you gain per gather, and have more impact on the other parts of the game without being a necessary thing you have to grind.
This is an early build of the new minigame, it's enterely functional as of now but with placeholder visuals.
Prizes:
It will now have a grid in which you can uncover the items behind it. The prizes will be weeds, flowers and money.
Be wary:
Not everything behind the tiles are prizes.
Not everything is bad news though, if Ryo eats something you will gain friendship with her based on what the item was. +1 for flowers, +2 for weeds, +3 for rare flowers.
Rare Flowers:
There will be 8 types of rare flowers for you to find while gathering, they give better relationship points than a common flower.
What's the difference of each of them you ask? Each girl has a favorite one, giving it to the right girl will make her much happier. The hint of who the right girl is will be in the flower's name. (Some easier than others).
This will be the Protective Flower, one of the harder one's to guess, can you guess which girl you are supposed to give it to?
As of now I only did the art for one of them, so the other ones will have to wait for a future devlog.
New items:
Alongside the rework of the minigame, there will be 6 new items for you to buy:
The magnifying glass and Rake will be available in the konbini, the rest you can buy with Yuyu... Oh, right.
Yuyu's Curiosities:
With the new items, Yuyu's shop is getting an update as well!
One last thing, for the weeds, they don't have a pourpose in gameplay yet, except in Ryo's quest, I'm planning to change it, but I'm still in the brainstorm phase for this one. If you have any suggestion I'll be more than happy in hearing it.
