Don't drink and spacewalk!

If you are intoxicated and roll a critical FOCUS failure on surface change (e.g. broken tile), you trip over and hurl through the space.

  • It cannot happen outside (because you are extra cautious).
  • After a fall, you get a cooldown/grace period before the next check (because the fall sobers you up for a moment).
  • Yes, it can happen in combat.

Can non-player units be affected too?

Ooooh! Good question, I should try it out!

Technically this behavior is for any character and "hero" is just a character you control.

Make a quest when you make your enemies drunk before the battle and then battle them. Best C&C ever.
Make it so that tricking only enemies to drink requires some certain action/stat or player have fight too while drunk.

This looks very soulful. Any plans to publish on Gog? I'd prefer to not use Steam.

Yeah, Steam is freaking dangerous.

This year I resurrected my Steam account (used it only for Rome 2: Total War before) to basically buy 4 rpgs that were not on GOG.

Three months later I had 101 new games on my account and a drained credit card.

Fuck Steam!

glances at my 2000+ game library

Ahem.

Yeah.

If you are drunk when talking to an NPC, you get an additional dialog option - an insult.

While usually, this will close any future conversations with the person, it grants you a temporary confidence boost in form of a bonus of 5 maxHP. While it may not sound much, remember, some characters start off with 9 maxHP, so it's not nothing.

Why did we add this?
1) Look what you are saying - if you are drunk, your impulse control is lower and you may accidentally piss some people off. This is essentially it.
2) Sometimes you just want to say something insulting to another person. Because it's funny, because you can or because you hate the guy - does not matter.
3) This +5 maxHP mechanic might work well with certain character builds adding to the overall diversity.

P.S.
Of course, you have to be confident and not ugly to even get to a point where you spit out your insult.

There are a lot of mechanics in Space Wreck but you don't have to use or even learn about them to enjoy the game. That's why there isn't really a tutorial for that. But I still wanted to at least give a hint to players what kind of options they have.

Because our loading screen was not doing much, I added a roster of Did you know... type of hints like many other games do. However, every tip has a nice, short clip (GIF) associated - over the years I've created quite a selection. I think this is subtle enough and sort of entertains you while the game is loading.

I mean, this could be the reason why my wishlists have plummeted recently. Something might be wrong with my tags or smth.

Did you tag it with "Sexual Content"? I've noticed Steam saying "Based on your playtime in Sexual Content games" and I don't have any games that should have that tag

No one cares about 2D pixellated stuff and fade-to-black dialogue sex. Don't be autistic about some rules.

This is looking more and more like classic Fallout 1 and 2 IN SPACE (TM), complete with an equivalent to low Int gameplay. Shame the graphics outside of conversations are "eh". Could be worse, at least you're not using fake pixel crap. Also, the TONS of gameplay options are staggering and impressive so far.

It's not just classic Fallout.

It's like the next Arcanum.

Except instead of just being a clone of the old, it takes the design principles that made Fallout and Arcanum great and pushes them further ahead.
