So, I realized that it is still called "Galaxy" now, and in a post by TreeGreen inspired me to tie that naming better to the game:
Comet Cycles (C.C.)
A flock of blue lights fly across the outer edges of the skies
Something that could come up if you decide to implement a system like this, because why would you just implement an un-juice-like sun/moon cycle when you can do so much more? Being able to look forward to events, and having it happen due to events you caused would give greater sense of progression. (Also if you want players to have a reason for more play time, it could be tied into this due to having to do certain stuff to unlock it).
Here is a table of ideas:
Description | Requirements | Effects |
Azure lights flock across the skies | To leave the School at the Start of the game | Makes flame particles blue and makes the skeletons on fire. |
A green fog encompasses the sky | You visted the swamp biome (or whichever biome will have the froges) | Froges will be able to spawn outside the biome for the duration of the green skies. |
Meteors (Asteroids? Can't remember the terminology) streak across the sky | Has revisited Ms. Slithers (Defeating isn't needed) | Flying at high altitudes may result in a unexpected collision with a homing asteroid. |
A Spike-y Moon (with the colors of the Creator's wig) | Defeated the Creator (Maybe can be stopped by defeating him again?) | Whenever it is out, it causes the pollywogs to turn into wereollywogs. A spikier version of the pollywogs, as well as a dangerous foe. |
Multi-colored swirls of yarn and rope fill the sky, along with shimmering after it is knotted into it's place | Be in a high monster level area (so 50 monster level-ish) and defeat at least one highlevel monster | Make yarn burst out of defeated enemies, as well as adding in some lower level enemies. |
I know none of these specifically will probably be added in; however, I hope you still have something in mind like this with cycles/events.
(Also, great work on the game! It's wonderful every time I step into it, or even think of stuff for it because it is so inspiring)
