Major Update #️⃣3️⃣ Plans
🕑 Added 2025-05-17 20:52:27 +0000 UTCHi there! Today we want to share our goals for the next update. This one will focus on the last major gameplay mechanic - after that, we’ll be able to fully expand the game. We’ve been working on it for the past ten days, while also fixing some bugs that made it into version 0.3.0a.
This is a special mode that will be called “Explore the location” in the game. In this mode, you'll be able to find different items, money, events, and so on.
Here’s how it works:
When you start the mode, the game gives you 10 random cards. Each card tells you what it gives and what its rarity is (there will be 4 rarities: C, R, SR, and SSR).
Then, when you click "Ready," the cards will be shuffled and spread out across the location. You’ll be able to flip 2 cards at random (you’ll be able to flip more later on). On the right side of the screen, you’ll see items you can use in this mode (for example, an item that lets you peek at a card before choosing, etc.).
The functionality of this mode is almost done, but as you can see, the UI design isn’t there yet.
We think this mode will encourage players to keep exploring locations, since it’ll let them unlock unique events (which will be added to the gallery) and earn valuable rewards.
You might’ve already noticed the little lightning icons in the screenshots above - that’s the new energy bar, showing how much energy your character has.
Energy will be spent on some actions (like minigames or neighbor house levels), and you’ll be able to restore it by sleeping or eating.
We're adding a shop location where you’ll be able to buy and sell items. We’re planning to have a sexy cashier behind the counter you can chat with, but her design is still in progress. We’ll run a poll soon where you can vote on what she should look like ;)
And of course - more events, events, and even more events! The main character will keep stumbling into all kinds of situations, some of which might get pretty spicy...
Those are the main things coming in the next update. And finally, here’s a small piece of news:
We’re most likely going to slightly change the name of the game to Tricky Pranks & Naughty Acts. This is because some people take the word 'traps' a bit differently... if you know what we mean.
If you have any thoughts about that, we’d love to hear them - let’s think it over together ;)
That’s all for today. Thanks so much for supporting us!
