WHAT IS IT?
Heebies is a shop to collect cute little monsters with a focus on an in-shop game mechanic of battling them to earn things like shop currency, battle items, and even more monsters. Players have the option of battling one another (Player vs Player, or PvP), as well as shop hosted battle scenarios that range from small skirmishes (Flash Battles) to large full-on mob style boss battles (Tournament Battles). Or you could just collect them - that's cool, too.
Additionally, there's a pretty cool breeding mechanic where two different species have a small % chance to produce a hybrid species which share traits from BOTH parents. This particular mechanic has the potential to allow players to form all KINDS of different combinations, and potentially to even start their own specialized monster breeding lines. Not only that, but paying special attention to the kinds of stats each pair has could result in offspring which have the potential to have better stats than their parents.
MONSTERS!!
There are MANY different types, and in fact the idea is to continue adding new species as the shop grows.
Monsters are classified by rarity and strength in tiers:
Put simply there are Tier D, C, B, and A monsters - with A being the strongest.
Rarity also coincides with this, however due to there being hybrids, they will fall into either Tier of the parents.
The more rare the monster the stronger it is overall and the harder it is to obtain.
Most monsters will be discovered in shop games, flatsales, and raffles - or via breeding.
However, defeating a wild monster in a Flash battle will then make it available to be claimed by the winner (or, at least one winner if there are multiple winners).
Tournaments also sometimes yield monsters, including species never before seen in the shop.
STATS
All Monsters have three stats:
HP > or how many hits they can take before being KO'd
STR > how much damage they do when they hit
DEX > how hard it is to be hit
Stats are basically a monster's "genetics". Breeding allows players to try to produce offspring that have a chance of higher stats all around, leading to the "best" possible monsters over time.
SHOP CURRENCY
Most anything you can participate in will either directly earn you shop currency, or at least give you a chance at it.
- PvP Battles
- Flash & Tournament Battles
- Daily Games
- Other random staff-hosted games
- Weekly events
- And likely other stuff too!
Plus, you can trade your hard earned shop cash for prizes like:
- Battle items
- Breeding items
- Accessories
- More stuff??
ALSO, you're more than welcome to trade with other users using your shop currency for:
- Monsters
- Sell/trade battle/breeding items or accessories you've won
- Sell your services (art, coding, graphic design... you name it)
TO-DO BEFORE OPENING
Battle Mechanics:
These still need to be fleshed out and balanced, though the general function mostly have some ideas already in place.
Shop Items:
A few item ideas are in place already:
- Single-use battle items that boost a stat for one battle
- Breeding items that give a higher chance for an additional egg, mutation, or hybrid
- Accessories (purely aesthetic and 100% cute)
Guild
Figuring out how to organize this, as well as typing up most of the info.
Art
I have a lot already done from years ago (some of you might remember this shop!), but some of the lines are in need of being updated, and I'm scrapping others and redoing some from scratch.
Also have to do item art for at least the few items we'll be starting with.
Have to get some starter pets prepared for a grand opening (assuming there's enough interest to move forward!).
Graphics
New banners...
