Education
This mod currently adds 7 symbols and 1 item, which are designed to be able to pivot into different builds.
Kindergartener is common, gives no coins, and transforms into High Schooler after 7 turns.
High Schooler is uncommon gives 1 coin, and transforms into College Student after 13 turns.
College Student is rare and gives 2 coins, but more importantly can transform into other rare symbols based on what she’s adjacent to:
-Peaches turn her into Mrs. Fruit
-Ores turn her into a Geologist
-Oysters turn her into a Diver
-Beer turns her into a Bartender
-A treasure chest turns her into a Pirate
-A Hex of Thievery turns her into a Witch
-And if you let her turn counter hit 20, she’ll turn into a Professor
The Professor is very rare, starts at 4 coins, and gains 1 more for every 5 turns that pass. She also triples the value of any adjacent textbooks or ebooks
Supporting this build are the book symbols:
Textbooks are common, give 1 coins, and increase the turn counter of adjacent students of any kind- including the professor- by 5. They’re destroyed in the process, and give 10 coins when destroyed.
Ebooks are rare, and give 3 coins. They advance adjacent students’ turn counters by 2, but aren’t consumed.
Library Cards will instantly destroy themselves, and spawn 3 books. Usually it’ll be textbooks, but you might get lucky!
Lastly, the G.E.D. is an uncommon item that will instantly transform any human that doesn’t have a counter into a High Schooler. No shame in going back and getting an education!
TODO:
I also really wanted the G.E.D. to be triggered on manual destruction- similar to how items like the booster pack work- but it doesn’t seem possible with the current effects? As it is it kinda plays like an essence item.
Could probably use more support items in general, to make the "pure academia" build more viable. Probably at least an item that buffs book values? More ways to spawn loads of books?
