Glow Weeds

Glow Weeds

Will: Glowweeds are one of my favorite new additions to the game! Creating
a unique object that solved multiple problems at once is a great feeling.

Will: We first needed to solve the problem of food beneath Moon.

Will: These areas were so isolated and alien that simply placing fruit or mold didn't fit. As well, these areas
were also dark. Rivulet needing to explore in complete darkness while drowning didn't seem like a fun idea.

Will: The solution to these problems was to make a balanced mix of an answer to all of them at once!

Will: We created a new unique food that was also a light source. We then allowed Rivulet
to eat food underwater to avoid player irritation. Finally, we made each glowweed provide
half a pip of food, so we could place excessive amounts to light a room.

Will: Two bonus upsides are that jetfish will compete with the player to collect them, and the
green glow of the plants also defined a bio-luminescent lit cave theme that defined lower MS!
