Geesh, what are you reading my dev TODO notes? :D
Thanks for taking the time to write these up. These are great ideas, and a good chunk of them are on my list! I just need to make the time to work on them.
I think you helped me recognize an important trend though in the game... and that is that the game currently has a fair number of separate systems, each that do like ONE thing (like the Garage only makes one car, the suit power is only used for your flashlight, rocks and radioactive ore etc have few uses)... Those systems need to do either more interesting things (more content), or possibly get removed or rethought, or merged into something else.
Cheers!
PS: More cats!
