LTE layered rewards idea
🕑 Added 2020-09-24 00:33:43 +0000 UTCThese are just boring UI concepts but I wanted to post them here to start a conversation with you guys. You know that the Limited Time Events is starting to cycle through old content, mixed in with occasional new content. This is for 2 reasons:
The 1st is that a LOT of new players have been requesting we bring back the old LTE girls/outfits/pinups so this is a nice way to have those available for them.
The 2nd reason is that we're really overloaded coming up with new content for Crush Crush / Blush Blush / all while still developing Hush Hush. We want to keep releasing awesome new content but it's just a lot to take on for a team our size.
Soooo this is my proposal to add a 'layered' tier reward option to LTE. For players who already have the reward (Vellatrix's outfits in the example above) then they can collect daily event tokens towards a new item nobody has - which is the deluxe wedding dress outfit.
I'm worried that this system would be too complicated to explain to both new players who don't have that original reward, and trying to explain the second reward tier they could get... it just gets confused :") I researched a bunch of games that do that 'dual reward tier' thing, like Hogwarts Mystery etc. But I figured it would be easier to just chat about it here and see what you all think?

As a newer player who's almost grabbed all that's avi in the shop, I'm DEF interested in filling out my game and getting girls and outfits I don't have, so I think it's a great system. However I'd also like some sort of chance to get the newer things too so if there'd be a way to buy the new things too or if older players would prefer additional daily diamonds, those could be two options

I think this is a great idea! And I don't think it's that confusing, especially since you explained it very clearly in the concept pictures. If this gets implemented, I'll be super excited!

Yeah definitely! New fancy outfit for that character / or animated pose so it's all related to that event. ^^

For my part, I log in and get my rewards every day regardless (save for CC on mobile one day recently), so I'm okay either way. I had already resigned myself to sitting through a lot of things I already had when y'all put out the upcoming LTE schedule a few months back.

Seems like a smart idea to me, a way to keep long-time players invested without piling too much more work on yourself. Iβm down!
This would be great! I love how your keeping it connected to the same character as that's what I think would be nice. Same character or item/theme?

I like this idea. Granted, the LTE system itself completely confused me by itself when I first started playing, but it didn't take me long to get my head around it. I don't think new players will be put off completely, they may just ignore the system until they get how the game works. That was my experience anyway. I still make sure to click the LTE every day even if I already have the content in question so as not to break the habit, so getting something out of it would be a nice reward. Alternatively, if you wanted something more...permanent I guess, how about a system where we can "bank" tokens if we already have the content and "spend" then on later LTEs. So let's say I have Vellatrix and I click her event every day. The next event is a new girl, maybe Sawyer (no reason I picked her, definitely not.....hint hint), and I have the option to spend the 14 tokens in my bank to unlock her on day one without needing tokens. I have no idea how feasible that would be to implement, but it would work on third and onwards cycles without the need for extra content to be developed. Either way, I like the idea of getting something from LTEs even if we already own the content. Looking forward to seeing more of Hush Hush soon too.

I like it. I agree that if I were a new person, I would like a chance to have the other girls, their outfits, pinups, that were in the past, so I totally agree with the cycling of older LTEs. It gives newer people a chance to fill out their game and get what we older players have. I really like how you started putting "You have this" on top of the current LTEs. I still play every day and collect my diamond. I also know that you guys are hard at work on Hush Hush, and I can't wait to alpha/beta it. I like the idea of a layered reward. It's something small and extra for us older players to work towards but it also wouldn't take very much of your time to whip up. Good idea, I say.
