Plushy greetings!
This week, we've prepared a special issue where we'll answer the most frequent questions from the community that have accumulated since the start of development.
You can ask new questions in our Discord community and Telegram channel - we'll try to address them in future posts!
How long will it take to complete the game?
We are aiming for 6-10 hours of very dense and rich gameplay for the main story.
How many different locations are planned?
The game will feature 3 large locations, a hub, and a tutorial level. Each of these biomes is unique and offers different activities. For full completion and collecting all rewards, players will need to return to previously visited locations and unlock new zones using the Pigeon's abilities.
Will the enemies in the game be only Grimps, or will there be others?
The main opponents are Grimps of different classes: melee, tanks, ranged, and support. Each class has unique behavior that changes the tactics on the arena. Besides them, you will encounter bosses - evolved Grimps with a special appearance and mechanics that will become a real test of the player's skills. No other enemy types are planned.
Will there be progression in the game? What kind exactly?
Yes, there will be progression for both weapons and the character. You will be able to install modifiers that change the weapon's firing type and damage type, as well as switch between these modes right during combat.
What is there to do in the game after the story campaign? Are DLCs planned?
After completing the story, you can return to previous locations to explore undiscovered areas and collect all rewards. Yes, we plan to release DLCs.
Where will the player get new weapons from? Will there be a crafting system?
The player obtains new weapons while exploring locations. There will be no crafting system - instead, we focused on modifying, upgrading, and customizing the existing arsenal. Each weapon type offers unique gameplay, so getting a new gun is always a fresh and fun experience.
How many abilities will the pigeon have?
The Pigeon will have three unique abilities, each affecting battles and world exploration differently. The abilities are unlocked gradually after defeating and absorbing bosses.
For example, the first ability, "Tank", helps control enemies on arenas by drawing damage to itself, and in exploration, it allows breaking walls made of plush matter.
Later, a cold element ability will appear, which stuns enemies and creates cover in combat, and during exploration allows building platforms to access secret areas on the map.
Will Grimps only be aggressive? Will there be a friendly critter in the game?
There are both evil and kind Grimps. But it's better not to tease even the cute ones - they might bite!
