> I'm a bit squeamish about a character losing both eyeballs and going blind
I am interested in this part, do you think if the game was more horror themed it would amplify the uneasiness of the mechanics and enhance the game overall? It's a direction I'm looking in taking the game right now and curious if that elevates or ruins the game.
Right now is a bit odd. Since it happens all the time because it is a rage game, you quickly get desensitized to it, but the first time it is shocking ebfore you immediately die because smashing against a wall is so easy. I think you can dev with an horror theme in mind and it would be super interesting. I believe that by carefully feeding the player horror elements they could have more impact. Like for example you make the player smash their head against a specific surface safely to open doors, then later on a surface make you lose an eye and the mood suddenly changes.
