👀 That's a big map!! Getting a FUN sorta Earthbound x Costume Quest vibe. Wonder how folks are gonna dress up their sprite! 🤔 🧟‍♂️ 🧛‍♂️ 🧙‍♀️ 👨‍🚀

Without giving too much away it should be a pretty big game when it's done. 15 XCOM inspired missions across the map with realtime travel in the overworld. Make sure you've dressed up your sprite and pack accordingly. TP, Silly String, or Glow Sticks?

🤔 Are you going for full inventory base, or will there be some stats or other mechanisms for the adventure? Let us know if we can help with anything there! 🎃

Also any suggestions on who the principal of the school should be? I need an NPC for exposition to kick off the game.

At least for now the plan is to use a research tree, probably stat records to support that plus a save record. Going to try to get this play testable in a week and would appreciate the help with testing the first mission when it's ready.

Ooh, a tree will be fun to make visual on the profile! Yes, happy to trial as you go along. We can even ping some of our beta testers!

Making progress... Need to fix a bunch of rendering but the turn based xcom style grid and the realtime overworld with random crowds are working.
