Poll Time on Powerups (Patreon)

Hey, another poll for Future Fragments, this time related to the powerups/items you’ll be able to pick up in the game!

So, quick recap;

You can pick up the powerups in a number of ways during the game, they’re randomized for the most part (some things will give you stronger or weaker powerups etc.), but you can only hold three at once. (You can drop them at any time, as well.) The powerup abilities stack too, of course.

The powerups are in three categories, Offensive, Defensive, and Utility (stuff like movement speed or jumping height or whatever else).

However, what the poll’s about and what I’m going to ask you all today is to vote on what you feel would be the most entertaining/fun with the powerups as a whole.

Style #1
- Powerups have minimal effect on Talia’s abilities/playstyle (just small boosts), but have no drawbacks whatsoever, and are solely positive.

Style #2

- Powerups have a more noticeable effect on Talia, but also have a bit of a drawback, as well.

To explain this more, here’s an example;

Set of possible Style #1 powerups
- Talia gains 10% damage to her shots.
- Talia has a 5% chance to do double damage to enemies.
- Talia gains a piercing regular shot that goes through the first enemy and hits the next for 25% damage.

Set of possible Style #2 powerups
- Talia’s regular shots do 125% damage, but her firing rate is now slowed by 50%.
- Talia’s regular shots poison enemies for 10HP a second if they connect, but all damage afterwards against poisoned enemies does 50% less damage.

- Talia takes 75% reduced damage from all sources and her invincibility period after taking damage is doubled, but the effect of healing orbs is cut down to just 25% of what it is normally.
