Designer's Note

Our Unfinished Idea

Thank you for playing our game! Due to the time constraints of the jam, we weren't able to fully implement the core narrative idea that drove our design. We wanted to share it here.

For the theme *"Collector,"* we designed the game around a central conflict: Price vs. Value.

On the surface, the gameplay is about collecting high-price relics to meet the Guild's mission requirement and achieve a high score. This is the direct, mechanical goal.

But hidden beneath this is a secret, narrative layer: a collection of value. Scattered throughout the level are "worthless" items—*a rusty badge*, *a bent sword*, *a burnt music sheet*—each appraised at only 1 gold. These seemingly useless objects are the true relics of the legendary adventurer whose home you explore. Their item descriptions and the few diary pages they unlock tell the story of his life, his triumphs, his losses, and his *"Original Heart"* (本心).

Our ultimate ambition was to create a tense, constant choice for the player between grabbing a high-price relic to win the game, a health potion for survival, or a "worthless" item that held a key to the story.

While the final game focuses more on the action, this underlying theme of discovering what is truly priceless is the soul of our project. We hope you can feel the echoes of this story in the world we built.
