So…I’m making a game where you use a truth-powered weapon to fight an abomination that feeds on lies and fakery. My original idea came from a conversation I had with a friend earlier today about how hard it can be to get people to tell the truth and be real with you instead of hiding behind white lies. I was gonna do a truth or dare style game to try to get people to open up to each other, but that sort of thing is better for a physical game.

You can tell the truth to increase your damage but go slower, lie to increase your speed but do less damage, and of course move, shoot, and slash. I was thinking the monster would use a mask as a shield, so that’s what’s in the drawing below in addition to the monster. There’s also a punk rock playlist if you can read my handwriting. I’m entering the jam, so we’ll see how far I get with this and how much I have to scope down.
