I have made some progress! Buttons for selections are in and the item panel is done (aside from how to actually deal with the items being &#8220;used&#8221;).

Anyway, people come in, ask for something and you are free to give them something suitable or something completely random and zany dialogue occurs. You are scored based on how well\u00a0 you do, but going for a high score would be just as much &#8220;fun&#8221; as going for a low score so the player is free to do whatever. The title of the store changes depending on score.\u00a0 Tomorrow the plan is to implement a bunch of worlds\/levels that are simple 10-15 second minigames that show the adventurer using the item\/advice the player gives them. Example: Trying to do a shmup with a banana is not going to go well, or trying to host a dinner party with a robot is&#8230; actually that sounds awesome. You get the idea.<\/p>","time":"April 30th, 2011 3:57 pm","title":"Sages\u2019s Suggestibles and Specialty Shop"}
