Talk:Project Storm: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 02:21, 26 October 2023

This is the main brainstorming page for Project Storm! This page is meant to be a lot messier than the regular page, so no worries about having good technical writing or anything like that.

Possible title names

I'll Find You in the Morning Sun
The Morning Sun
Find the Morning Sun
Morning Dust (homage to Exhaling Dust :] )

holy shit morning == mourning GUYS NEW METAPHOR

Mechanic ideas

Storm

Faster wind increases likelihood of rover toppling over (dust devils)
Dust clouds that cause damage and cover the rover with dusts
Lightning strikes that can cause total system failure

Battery

After the storm sets, the rover runs on a limited battery supply (so battery would only be a problem in Act 2). Different types of movements could reduce the battery further (such as going uphill).
