Monday Meeting: The Final Startington Challenge

In today's meeting we've spent a great deal of time discussing the final challenge in the creepy version of Startington (among other things)! As you might remember from a previous meeting post ages ago, there will be three challenges in this surrealistic and spooky version of Startington: one where you fight a ton of slimes which gives you a card called Obsession, and one where you do some tough shield training and gain a wooden shield called Expectations.

In our latest iterations of the third challenge, we've been working around the theme of Deceit. In this latest iteration of the challenge, there will be a block puzzle in which you move blocks with each of the artifacts to designated squares (rather than a key block puzzle).

Mechanically we have a couple of ideas for how to make this more fitting the strange world; one is that instead of moving the blocks, the room will move, the other that as you attempt to move on block, another of the blocks will move instead. We're not entirely sure which of these we'll go for, or if we'll do something else entirely, but we'll start off with making prototypes of these two ideas first and see whichever one feels the most cool.

In the middle or above the puzzle, there will be a statue of Charlotte, you mother, which will break and reveal a wooden sword called Deceit upon completion of the puzzle. 

Whatever that means (if it means anything at all)? You'll have to continue playing to find out ;)
