Things I'd love to see.

Just a short list of things I'd love to see added to the game I've come to adore.

Bees to make honey, and Beekeeping Equipment & Skills
Growable Mushrooms
Ability to Fish for Salmon
Winemaking, grape growing etc (perhaps could be somehow linked with the grape squishing in Hell?)
Ability to factor in the subway when setting a destination that's in another region (i.e rather than making you walk all the way, the route sends you to the nearest subway and tells you which station to travel to) it's tricky switching between maps sometimes.
Many many more quests, not just triggered by skills but also by perhaps locations, or just random ones that pop up, just something to keep us feeling like we're progressing while waiting for the skills that take days.

  • +e^i*pi - This idea is fantastic - it only asks for things that are already involved in the game - there are already mushrooms and honey and salmon and grapes (albeit only in hell)...

    But right now Glitchen have no alcohol-creation path - wine would be a great thing to home-craft.  Then later, a still... and brandy...

  • I'd love to see boats, though I dunno what exactly they'd do (whether they'd be for fishing/apartments/parties/etc), and I think it'd be interesting if there was more "coast" to the coastal areas- beaches, dunes, that sort of thing.

  •   I concord with all the ideas, also it would be fun if we can swim, and underwater locations

  • Some people were concerned about 'killing' fish in fishing..
    What if they were gummy fish?

    Mmmm. gummy fish.

  • LOL I like the idea of candy fish

    snorkels could be fun
    octopush is underwater hockey hehe

    boats would give a good sense that we are actually on islands.  We currently travel between them without any of the classic glitch waiting like that found in subways

  • I am now going to develop an Octopush game. In my head. Under my hat. *soexcited*

  • Ok... Octopush! The Game!

    Eet eez a team sport. Four Glitchen per team, for a total of eight in the pool each game. You may choose your full team, or allow signups.

    All four Glitchen are tied together, each facing in a different direction. Each Glitch can only push in one direction. Diagonal movement is only possible via teamwork... well, as is any productive movement, really.

    Each Octopush is both player and ball. Object of the game is to get your group through the goalposts, while preventing the other Octopush from doing the same. (Perhaps with multiple, varyingly-sized "posts," ala Quiddich?)

    There may be obstacles in the pool: posts, bumpers, rocks, whirlpools, seaweed... Crabs? Perhaps randomly-appearing quoins as well, that could give extra points or buffs.

    This could also be a single-Octopush game, with a timer to beat instead of another Octopush.

    (Right now, this game is very tiny. 'Cause it's inside my head. Go and make it bigger....)

  • Jennyandots do all four players get to wear Octopus hats?

  • No, no, no, Angel! You've got it all wrong! This is Glitch we're talking about! You have to seduce the bees with your mystifying dance steps, and then they offer you their birch syrup! (since the bees would all live in birch trees).

    As for fishing, I was thinking something like this:

    Come on, get in the boat! (fish) Come on, get in the boat! (fish, fish)

  • +100 to all ideas but especially the ability to grow, find, make items you currently have to buy!

    I have been some places where mushrooms were part of the scenery and I spent considerable time staring at them and feeling frustrated about not being able to pick them.  It seemed daft that I couldn't do something that is so easy in rl when I could massage and milk butterflies and nibble piggies for meat!

    I also want to be able to do home renovations.. I love all those TV shows but don't have a home of my own irl so I would LOVE to be able to knock down a dump and rebuild or build an extension and decorate my Glitch home!

  • The Cat Face, all players may wear whatever headgear they like. Octopus hats are, of course, appropriately thematic.

    Although Stanley did meet an interesting character the last time we went to Hell... he was quite smitten. He has, however, mentioned that he'd let any of his potential children make their own decisions as to whether to remain in the family business of haberdashery.

    (fish, fish!)
