Thanks for answering that question,but my other question is how Alfonzo's code gonna handle the other lambdas
I have ideas for the combat system:
You can use normal attacks normally, but then there are "magic attacks" which require mana but do more damage and sometimes have special effects. The attacks would be scripts, and the enemy would be forced to run them when you used it. They would be things like this:
(Skip enemy turn)
Edit: Wait, nvm i have no idea how that could be useful
(Poison or bleed effect)
The scripts wouldn't actually have to be run, but maybe there would just be an a-list with names of attacks and script pics to show when you use them.
There would be items that can increase mana when consumed, but it would also gradually increase as the turns go by.
So like Pokemon or Final fantasy?
I don't know a lot about pokemon or final fantasy, but kind of
Hm could you be able to recruit allies or no
Like having other characters join your party?
Yes,or like catching pokemon
Maybe.
I kind of envisioned it like mario rpg: alonzo edition lol
Oh That would mean Characters would join as the story progresses!
Exactly.
But then we need to come up with characters other than Alonzo. Bosses, allies, enemies, bystanders, etc.
How about the scratch cat as an ally,and maybe the twitter bird as a boss,and finally the pixiart heart as an item
what about items? powerups? tools? weapons(fake ones like an air gun or something)?
Food items and other things from the costume library?
Edit: I made a list of some items we can use:
The bells, heart candy and key would all be key items (crucial to the story). The rest are food.
maybe the food can be dorayaki buns, but they aren't from costume library so maybe
fortune cookie that will give you hints for the level or something
i just got doraemon vibes from you saying that
Maybe fortune cookies can give you buffs or debuffs
Frank Freakbar from PYOP could be a boss in this RPG.
You'll have to do the spritework for him.
the green alonzo? haha maybe he shoots out poo
Hm maybe make Alonzo weak at first when they first fight Frank freakbar
and maybe alonzo has a cigar(as an item) and then throws it into Frank Freakbar's mouth to end the boss fight like the story goes in PYOP: Frank Freakbar's First Meeting
