Goal #2 Complete!


We've crossed the $200 mark and Five particularly generous backers snapped up the initial supply of custom prompts! With their support I will be doubling the number of prompts in the game up to 50! 

This is super cool and also leads to some challenges.

  • Most of the money from those pledges will go into the editing costs of the new content (unplanned but worthwhile)
  • I need to confirm how the new prompts integrate into the game. In the current system each grid square has a dedicated prompt. These new pledges will either make a second expedition with unique prompts or inspire some sort of prompt randomization that blends the whole set.

For now I'll be focusing on writing these new prompts with input from the five backers. I'm going to look into a "random seed generator" that can assign the prompts to the game grid directly from a database. If that is viable I can hopefully provide a way for people to have a unique combination of prompts when they play. This is a bit of a pipe dream for now but if you find the idea interesting be sure to let me know! If there is interest and the concept is easy to implement I may eventually be able to provide content packs later, sprinkling in new prompts to keep the game evolving and mysterious!

Thanks again!
