Individual Team Member Deliverables – Checkpoint 1 DP 2

Mood Board

Emotion: Resolved

Directions

1. Rogue-like Pilgrimage through the Mountain Veins

• Core Mechanic: Turn-based JRPG battles in mountain corridors with roguelike elements (random encounters, upgrade choices after each win).
• Type of Fun: Challenge, Discovery
• Narrative Approach: The journey up the mountain is fragmented by unstable memory zones — players meet remnants of past rebels and decide whether to fight them or learn from them. Each run tells a slightly different myth

2. Political Drama at the Heavenly Gate

• Core Mechanic: Strategic team-building with “influence” rather than combat. Use dialogue battles (inspired by Ace Attorney / Danganronpa) to sway celestial figures.
• Type of Fun: Expression, Narrative, Fantasy
• Narrative Approach: The protagonist and their monster companions infiltrate the divine court to win allies or sow doubt among the gods. Morality is gray; outcomes depend on persuasion and understanding character backstories.

3. Building a Human-God Resistance Base

• Core Mechanic: Time/resource management game between battles. Recruit cursed beings, construct devices (like jetpacks, stairways), and upgrade through story-based missions.
• Type of Fun: Fantasy, Sensation, Fellowship
• Narrative Approach: The player becomes the leader of a secret mountain base, building a coalition of the cursed and crafting legendary tools to reach the heavens. Between missions, team members have events or conflicts (like Fire Emblem base scenes).
