What's being worked on for the next update?
The quests update will take some time before it's fully released. This update will add a lot of new features and content. It will be released in several parts over the next 4 to 6 months. Expect to see the first part released in the next 4 weeks or so. This dev diary series will be published weekly to keep you up-to-date on what's being developed.
Denizens
In Crash Override, the player will meet other denizens of the cybernet on their quest to eliminate the main threat. These denizens will range from mainframe operators, security professionals, bots, people going about their day, the local pawnshop owner, Mom (and / or Pop), and others.
They can be encountered in the cybernet, in various SAFE locations in a 'frame, and other special places to be discovered.
Motivations
Everyone the player meets will have their own motivations and react to the player based on the current tendency and reputation of the player. Denizens will be the main quest givers in the game. It will be important to keep an eye on the current tendency and reputation to unlock certain dialogue and progression for some questlines.
NG+
Crash Override is meant to be played in new game plus (NG+). If you're not familiar, NG+ is a new game that is started after having beaten the game. The game keeps track of how many games you've completed, and increases the difficulty of challenges for each up to and including NG+6.
When NG+ is unlocked; new items, NPCs, questlines, and challenges will become available.
Next Week
Next week's dev diary we'll learn about the types of quests and challenges that await the player.
