Endgame rewards...

Just had an idea. So after you beat the game you unlock a 'Class Specialization' option that will allow you to start the game with any 6 items. And Maybe tier 1's cost 1 point, tier 2 costs 2 points, etc..

But should you allow multiples of the same item? I say yes. Imagine starting the game with 3 Rusty Jetpacks. Yes, please.

AND this will allow us to keep hardcore HARDCORE

 

how would that be fun at all? If I wanted that a I would just play on easy and get all the items I like.

 

Hmm, I guess you don't play on hardcore...

Anyway, it would be an OPTION that you choose after you beat the game already. It would be fun to play with a character starting with all goathoofs, or maybe a bunch of tesla coils and ukuleles so you could be a shock wizard! Besides, even with those powerups hardcore should still be a challenge, it's tough now and I imagine it will probably stay that way or get even harder.

 

Not if you have the ability to START with items, even if they have varied cost the inate power you would gain for free would make even hardcore pretty easy.

 

Well then maybe start with your max health at half or something.

 

Well your suggestion doesn't really mention changing of base stats, only items.

 

I would prefer some sort of debug mode where you could add items on the fly, or before starting a run. That would facilitate many interesting challenge runs, for example starting with 7 jetpacks, or giving yourself only tier 2 items the whole game, stuff like that.

 

i think it would be great to have some sort of cool endgame reward. just dont know what would be cool ANd balenced.

 

More or less why I thought of this. A way to do it without cheating

 

Well I think the dev said he was looking into adding a debug mode for us to test with.

 

I've mentioned this before, but the game Probability 0 has done this very thing quite well. So know that it can be done well if it ends up getting added.

 

It CAN yes, but I don't think that is the plan with THIS game.

 

-_-
Are you trying to miss the point?

 

Why would you stop at 7? Why not give yourself 50? And 200 Goat's Hooves, add some Headstompers - hilarity ensues!

 

Well I'd want to keep my challenge runs challenging, perhaps by imposing restrictions as well, but yeah, that's the general idea

 

Why is this idea so controversial? I'm proposing something that would be OPTIONAL and it's mostly something fun that you can do after you already beat the game to play around with something like a new character build. Just for FUN.

And to those complaining that it would make things too easy- how about you post your hardcore highscores? hmm?
