Dates

Start Date: April 12, 2021
Due Date: April 30, 2021

Description

A common request from creators is to have a drag and drop Perks system that can be easily put into a game without programming.

The goal of this Challenge is to build user friendly Perks that can be easily implemented into a game with little or no programming knowledge. Basically, make some Perks that are as simple to use and drag and drop friendly as possible.

Some ideas are listed below, but you are not limited to just these. Create Perks that you think will be popular and that developers will commonly need for their games.

  • A Perk that allows players to donate to the developer.
  • A Perk that allows a player to buy some resource.
  • A Perk that offers a boost to a player.
  • A Perk that offers VIP benefits.
  • Or any other common Perk that you think will be helpful to developers.

Considerations

  • Include a readme file that describes how to use your content. It is important to make this as easy to understand as possible for non-programmers. Include instructions on how a user can modify the Perks.
  • Scripts should use clean, readable code with extensive comments.
  • Please review the content best practices.

Requirements

  • The project must include one example of each type of Perk: Permanent, Limited-Time, and Repeatable.
