# Thought Starters integration with DAVID for SPK 2024


---
# THEMES

* Sour then Sweet
* Mischief as a game currency
* Reward mischievous gameplay

# IMPORTANT THINGS TO CONSIDER
* Simplicity is KEY in Roblox. Simple game concepts perform the best with the Roblox community. Our goal is to combine the clever themes outlined by DAVID in simple yet compelling gameplay.

# GAMEPLAY
* Primary Gameplay : Tycoon
* Secondary Gameplay: 4 Fruit Flavor 'Quests'

# FREE UGC STRATEGY
By rewarding players with Free UGC through gameplay incentives you increase player interest and retention. Examples of this include:
* tied directly to tycoon gameplay 
    >sell 100 lemonades
    >buy 300 buttons
    >finish watermelon zone
    >unlock hidden items during tycoon progression 
* or more related to the quests
    >score a certain number on the strawberry smash
    >earn X amount of mischief currency
* or related to exploring the map
    >basic scavenger hunt  
* or related to time
    >play the game for 30 minutes

# Big Pic Ideas 1


* **ELEVATOR PITCH**: Player is spawned into a tycoon gameplay environment that has been destroyed by a massive fruit fight featuring our mischievious SPK's. Players mission is to rebuild the environment through Tycoon gameplay. But first the mischevioius SPK's need to be collected as 'rewards' through gameplay to assist in mischief. Visually this will look like the Pikmin video below with SPKs 'following player' and assisting in performing mischief themed quests.  Once collected, the SPKs help player complete mischievous 'quests' that pay out "mischief" currency. These quests include mischievous mini games oriented around the fruit flavors (SOUR). This mischief currency is used by player to purchase upgrades, UGC limiteds and also unlock more SPK 'companions'.  The companion SPKs allow the player to accumulate cash faster to build the tycoons. The more SPK's the player is rewarded the more cash generated(2x-3x cash). The more cash generated the faster the Tycoon is built and environment is restored  (SWEET). 

Roblox players love cute elements like video below (our game will feature approximately 6 unlockable SPK 'companions')

# 2 Levels of Currency
* Cash is Primary Currency to Build Tycoon
* 'Mischief' is Secondary Currency to buy upgrades, UGC and SPK companions
(i.e mischief instead of gems in screenshot below)

**Mischievous GAMEPLAY QUESTS THOUGHTSTARTERS:**
*Completion of Quests reward player in mischief currency and UGC limiteds*
**Strawberry Smash**
Player uses strawberry hands/gloves to smash a machine that measures punching power.  Player levels up Smash strength through the **collection of mischief** and the **upgrading of glove size**. the larger the glove the harder the smash. The success of the smash is rewarded in currency.  Currency helps build the tycoon. **NOTE:A player walking around with an oversized very large strawberry glove will be funny.**
each SPK pet =2x mischief currency & faster running speed

![smash](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/BkcCOr03T.jpg)

•player grinds for currency to increase glove size strength 
•player uses this glove to 'smash' an object (yet to be determined)
•your glove size/strength will determine the height of the vertical ruler reading and the number go up of the meter reading
•each different vertical level pays out different amount of currency
•player keeps grinding to increase strength to eventually hit the strawberry 'bell' at top (see video link below)
•eventually once player grinds enough to reach the bell they are rewarded lots of currency and potentially FREE UGC

**Watermelon Blast**
Player runs through watermelon patch blasting watermelons.  Player levels up blast strength through the **collection of mischief**. Small watermelons are easy to blast but larger watermelons are more difficult.  Boss level =huge watermelon for multiplayer blast. Each successful blast is rewarded in currency. Currency helps build the tycoon. each SPK pet =2x mischief currency & faster speed

**Grape of Wrath**
Player enters PVP mode and competes against other players using grapes as the battle weapon (throwing or shooting).  Each successful "hit" of grape to an opponent is paid out in currency. Currency helps build the tycoon.  The player with the higher amount of mischief will be rewarded the most currency upon successful "hit".   SPK pet =2x mischief currency & faster running speed  

or 

Simple game mechanic that unlocks grapes as a weapon and when equipped allow people to visit other tycoons on map and shoot players/or targets that are inside the tycoons?

```

**Lemonade Downpour**
Every 10 mins inside our game player can participate in a lemon downpour where lemonade lootboxes fall from the sky. Player walks up to Loot box and opens using [E]. Lootboxes containing yellow lemons are common and contain 10x normal currency.  Rare lootboxes containing blue raspberry are highly valuable and contain 100x normal currency **NOTE: Incentivizes player retention**

**Peach**
"NSFW" option (themed to SPK), players fake moon each other, visual would be just a peach emoji covering back of players pants **NOTE: Would feature well on both youtube and tik tok**
