Today's post is gonna center on earning that sweet cheddar cheese!
To start with, I want to ask about Demigod Trainer's economy- is it any good? There are limits on what Ren'py is capable of, and I want to make tasks that take dedication but feel rewarding. Right now the map mini game is the fastest way to earn money, but I feel like it's not the most popular- maybe it's too hard, maybe it's not fun enough. But if you don't like that, there's always Moana's maid work and the occasional stop by the shadow man to earn some gold.
All those said, I just want to know- does it feel easy enough to earn money in game? There's also only the outfits to spend money on, so maybe that helps matters- it's all optional. But, a part of why I'm asking this question is that that is about to change!
Particularly, this is a heads up- the next update is coming with a new chapter of the game to unlock, and that chapter begins with an item that will be available for purchase. Now, I want that item to be something the player has to save up for- but, I also don't want to make all of you who've done everything else in the game have to grind forever to get the new content. So, I've come up with a middle ground- eventually, the item will cost something in the range of 500 gold. But, for this update, I'm going to put it on an early bird sale- it will cost 200 gold on release, and then the next update after will bump it up. So, that's some incentive to play the next update right when it comes out!
But, I figure I'd also let you know ahead of time, so if you want to boot up your save files and earn some gold in leisure BEFORE the next release, you've got time. Either way, at least you've got a heads up.
With that, go ahead and vote in the poll below, and let me know where the consensus stands. And if you're up to it, leave me a comment with any ideas, comments, or complaints about the ways to earn money in game. What do you like or dislike that's already in the game, or what would you like to see that other games have done? Let me know!
