Ok, so it wasn’t The End of The World As We Know It…

This was a bit hard for me to brainstorm on because I’ve done the villain/antagonist perspective on two projects already. And I got a bit of a late start because I had to finish some schoolwork before diving in. But after both paper brainstorming and bouncing ideas off some unaffiliated comrades, here’s what I’ve come up with:

You are a very Bond-esque Evil Overlord with a prized white cat. Said cat has a bad habit of getting loose in the villain’s evil fortress. Said fortress was designed by architects from the Galaxy Quest school of overly elaborate deathtraps.

That’s ok. This is just the sort of thing you have minions for. Sturdy but dumb robots that don’t mind being ordered on tasks that would result in their own destruction, and human henchmen who are much more squishy but somewhat less suicidal and able to disarm things that need fleshy braincells. Which is not to say that you can’t order them to their deaths. It seems to be all part of the fun for the cat.

Will probably add Tiled to my tools list. Learning how to integrate that on the fly will be Fun!

For now, sleep. I want a sanity check with my partner in the morning before committing any assets, but I’ve set up the git repo and stuff.
