Help on adding features for my game

I have been working on a big project that is very special for me. My problem is that i just got some ideas and features which has some different versions or i’m not sure on adding them.

IDEAS:

-Shop item Description:

My game will have a shop, and i thought about adding descriptions to the items, which it has 4 versions:

  • The item will have a button which will show all the stats and some stuff that the item has, on there will have a description.

  • Add a STAND where you can search information about those items, aka Description (My option)

  • Same like the first one but i will save it with a value in the player.

  • None

-Buyable Power-Ups:

In-game there are power-ups with a limited time of use, you can buy them and i dont know if i should sell them in the shop, since they spawn in the choosen map randomly.

-Customizable controls:

Nothing more, customizable controls and keybinds.

-Customizable player:

I got some options for this one:

  • Customizable character

  • Main color

  • You can set your birthday (Cannot be changed to prevent abuse)

  • Description

  • Some of this options.

-Weapons in a gamemode.

I just created a gamemode where you protect the statue and you can fight some NPCs, well i got two versions to manage weapons:

  • NPCs drops weapons when you kill them

  • You can upgrade your weapon

Those are all the features, and i dont know what i can add to my game, or remove. I hope you read this and reply me, thanks :+1:

A shop item description would probably help players in deciding what to purchase in the shop (or at least from my experience). For example, a player might buy one shop item thinking it does one thing, but to their surprise it does something completely different. You don’t want that, and neither do your players.

I’m assuming that by “buyable power-ups” you mean with robux. If you are planning to earn money from your game, gamepasses and devproducts are a good way of doing it. Just remember that without builders club, you only get 10% of what players spend on your game, compared to the 70% (iirc) you get with builders club.

Incase you mean buyable power-ups with INGAME currency, it’d still most likely be a good addition to the game.

Since you put customizable controls on the list, i assume that there are controls that need to be customized, in which case adding a feature for that would definitely be useful to some players.

As for the customizable player… Don’t @ me if i’m wrong, but i’m pretty sure asking for and saving other users’ birthdays is against the TOS.

Yeah, but i got two versions, add a button which shows the description, or a stand where you talk with someone and you want to know something about an item.

Creating power-ups that can be buyable with robux may convert my game into a Pay2Win, i’m thinking and trying to feel what the players think and feel, and i thought about those people who doesn’t has robux, or like me. Those power-ups can be bought with a special currency that can be obtained by leveling up, maybe the only thing that benefict you with robux is the VIP gamepass that i will make.

-Interact stuff (E for PC and X for Xbox)
That’s for now :v

Well, the birthday system is not very useful, no one can see your birthday, just a feature that if today is your birthday then you will recieve a gift from the game. Later i will create a post for asking if this is not allowed.

In summary: Your birthday will be completely privated, it will ask only the day and month of your bd. At that day, in any year you can claim a gift from the game (Time to claim: 1 Week).

I forgot to add a feature, i will edit the post and i hope you read it.

  1. I like the weapons idea, reminds me of an old game I made a long time ago.

  2. Players will probably set their birthday to the day they joined so they get their gift early, which isn’t fair.

You could avoid this using one of two tactics:

a. Celebrate their “Birthday” on the day the joined each year after the year they joined. It’d be more like an Anniversary than a Birthday, but atleast it cant be cheesed.

b. Celebrate the birthday of the game. Everyone would get a gift at the same time, celebrating the creation of the game. You could also add some special event if you wanted to…

I got 2 versions, and i want to choose one of them, or both.

I will try to make something where you get the gift in the next birthday, or as you said, an anniversary.
