The gardening thread leads to the idea of a family of games, culminating in a city builder where the other games take place My reply: Very nice! Could have a whole family of games, maybe one of those cleaning games but it actually teaches you what not to mix? One where you go from dog walker to owning a pet hotel? Some the levels are the flip side of other games' levels like helping the mom with the dogs?
"Yes and"s me to suggest career simulators including education based like teaching in an underfunded school
Me: Probably impossible to program but part of me is going "but they were all fooled for a final game was made: a city builder where you can unlock buildings based on how you did in other games". A community garden w/ heirlooms is unlocked w/ a code from the garden game, etc. Playable w/out but more fun
They encourage me giving examples of well known games where decisions impact sequels
Nice, I don't want the "you can bring your gun from COD into Mario world" thing they tried to sell us with NFTs but it would be cute to have a green pet hotel with a doggie pool in my city bc that's what I made in the other game. Maybe a bonus to restaurant revenue if they can get heirloom tomatoes.
