These are just the Informational Accessories I think are missing from the game and could be helpful. If you have a better Accessory idea or some feedback on the concept sprites I made please let me know!​

For the Luck display, it would be the least confusing if subtracted 1 from your luck and displayed the value in percents. For example:

No luck: 0% (instead of 1 or 100%)
Only bonus is a placed Gnome: +20% (instead of 1.2 or 120%)
Various bonuses with a resulting luck of 2: +100% (instead of 2 or 200%)

And make the Shellphone even more complex than it already is! I'm up for that challenge.

These are very promising ideas that aren't game-changing, but very convenient to have.

+1 support.

where did you get the pictures

 

[Fladnag Bilbon]

You can never have too many information accessories, unless you’re worried about inventory space (which is why I’m glad they can be combined).

where did you get the pictures

All the pixel art in my posts was made by me!

 

[Jackiethederg]

Full support, would make purifying the world just that much easier

>luck gauge
We already got wizard for that
>infection scanner
We already got dryad for that
>Environmental Indicator
We already got music and backgrounds for that.

He doesn’t tell you what your exact luck is, instead only saying stuff like “you are giving off a positive/negative energy.” It’s also random dialogue and you have to move him to where you are which is a hassle.

>infection scanner
We already got dryad for that

It doesn’t tell how much infection is in the world, it tells you how much infection is around the player. It would allow you to catch infection that’s just of screen/out of range of the sniper scope.

>Environmental Indicator
We already got music and backgrounds for that.

Honestly, this accessory is the weakest out of the three. I included it because sometimes the music, background, and biome torches can be misleading. It could be replaced by my other informational accessory idea the Creature Tracker or something else if someone has an idea.

>luck gauge

>infection scanner

by that logic, would it mean we don't need watch because we already have clock?

 

[AbominationGod]

Good point i guess.

 

[Erisha [CiM]🌳]

very cool

 

[maranethan 🐿]

I still don’t understand luck

I only agree with the environmental indicator, the wizard gives a very vague response and to check the infection with the dryad you need to re-join the world every time

 

[OlleWernersson]

it would be funny to know how lucky your are ones in a while haha

I love your spritework! 'tis a very cool concept too :3

 

[Warm Water]

the first one is already done by the wizard, who tells you based off dialogue, the second is already done by the dryad, and the third is done by torch luck/the tv head

I responded to the exact same critique above lol. The Wizard doesn't tell you your exact luck and you have to move him to your location, the Dryad doesn't tell you how much infection is around you, and the background/biome torches can be unreliable.

Also, following your logic, we shouldn't need watches because we have placable clocks, the Sextant because we can just look at the moon, or the Tally Counter because we have the bestiary. The idea we can't have new informational accessories because we can get the same info elsewhere is silly.
