(Made an actual board for the game dont @ me)

Oh my gawsh this game is going to go so hard. In the previous devlog I had talked about the issue of creating a new mechanic to make the game feel more gamey and I'm proud to say that we conquered that shit like the roman empire. Initially, in our first iteration, we just had the player staring at a piece of newspaper with a simple drag and drop mechanic controlling the entirety of the game. While this was a fine start, it was definitely a bit boring. We wanted our game to be silly, but limiting the player to stare at a flat plane hindered us to the vast means of creating silly content. The only silliness present came in the form of news stories, and the visuals of the character cards that the player could choose from when selecting news. 

After some discussion we decided that the game would become even SILLIER if we included an overexaggerated school environment. This gave us the ability to be extra creative when mashing the characters, news, and chain reactions together. The new possibility of environmental changes and character reactions on subsequent days was exactly what we needed to display the games true nature... Chaos

We could now visually portray the school community falling to pieces.  It also gave us a more depth focused character creation. Kids playing "War" would be in the history room. Nerdy students or gym rats would be in their subsequent "Math" and "Gym" classes. Each character had developed a unique trait that would be seen not only through their character design, but also the area they are in the school.

We had begun brainstorming level design and basic UI. Here's some photos.

(holy cow I didn't know how big this image was)

(oh my goodness I forgot about animals we are totally adding animals)

We also developed a LARGE list of possible students. This was pretty fun. Like making barks.

I won't reveal more cause its SECRET and could spoil story :33 Regardless. Every single bit of feedback you receive is valid. Don't hold on to your babies. Let people take your baby, cave its head in, give it a sleeve tattoo, and swap its milk for battery acid. Now you have a mutant superpowered baby with laser eyes and a mechanical heart and it is COOL AS HELL.
