The theme this time around is "Your Life Is Currency" and it's a bit of a doozy. At first, I thought with a theme this specific, it might be difficult to think of many workarounds to this theme. It was 9pm in my local time when the theme was announced that's when I took a bit of a nap. The theme was still swirling around in my head.

Around 2am in the morning, I woke up still thinking about currency. Currents, energy, money...Then the idea of cards started to pop up. Cards are valuable in their own way because they store pertinent info that's well-needed for everyday use whether it's for shopping or to gain access to a place. A credit card, a bus pass, an ID card, etc.

So I thought of a game idea where your identification card is your lifeline. You can collect and store info along the way, but you are prone to losing that card in the process. Other players could swoop in and take your card to do whatever they please and trouble ensues...like committing a crime and framing the other person, perhaps.

Here's a still screenshot of my progress thus far. Basic mechanics are working where you can pick up the card and collect info on it, using placeholder objects. The little box behind the character is a card slot where you can insert the card. Pretty excited for the scope on this game for the weekend. Now, on to get some breakfast...
