Action/adventure platformer where to up the difficulty later on you add a bunch of construction guys doing roadwork around a central area that used to be easy to traverse
You used to be able to just walk across this platform
But now it has guys with hi-vis vests and traffic cones all over it staring intently at clip boards
And they’re just doing their jobs. They aren’t like bad guys
So now you gotta drop under the platform, wall jump, air dash, then parry jump off of some spikes, wall jump again, and ledge grab your way paat it
Same raise in difficulty as when the desolate crossroads gets infected by the Radiance
then in the final act the construction wraps up and the area's way more traversal friendly than it was at the start
They installed speed floors that let you do super long jumps
Okay I meant it as a joke but honestly a platformer set in a super dilapidated ruin that is being actively renovated as you advance through the story could be kinda cool
that would be baller
Actually yeah it would
solving hauntings or something to make new areas safe to renovate
I pictured an old space station full of insane ais and malfunctioning robots
Same kinda thought, fixing the bots instead of helping the ghosts
Yeah
Either way the idea rules
