Hello Custodian!
Did you check out the Monster Mop Up Steam Page redesign? New Key art, gifs and an improved rundown of the main gameplay pillars! Awesome stuff really!
Besides the excitement for the renovation, let me share the story of how my personal favorite tool of the game was created!
The Gatherer syndrome
So there is a multitude of ways to gather, transport and dispose of poop, with the gloves and box being the most useful.
With the growing roster of poops [which you can find in this Blog post] we wanted the definitive answer to any brownish obstacle, as Monster Mop Up is designed to be a cozy and satisfying experience.
And so, for its first public debut. Please give a warm welcome to…
The Hoover
The hoover sucks all poops in range (left mouse click) storing them in the sack, and unless you are careful, it barfs all the contents to whatever unlucky furniture or Ragamuffin you 're aiming its nozzle at.
Basically a cake walk, if you keep an eye on the visual indicator or an ear out for the warning sound announcing the upcoming mayhem.
Items are sucked into the hoover as well, so smaller items fill your hoover’s sack too!
After an unfortunate value change, the hoover started throwing items and poop around at the speed of sound! The result was so rewarding, we HAD to change everything! We added the right mouse button as a launch button!
In the coming 2 days we spent a fair amount of time throwing poop around with some very impressive trick shots that no one had the foresight of recording for us to share.
But we couldn’t stop there, the right mouse button can push anything in front of the hoover, even when empty, so you can do some interesting stuff with it (Albeit a small distance, because someone hurdled a Ragamuffin to the moon, which while impressive, felt kind of bad for our furry friend).
First time you see a hoover is near the closet, on top of the table when you start a new game. It's a broken one, pierced through the sack by a screwdriver- RIP.
You will find the *actually* usable hoover in the *mumbles under his breath*, after which you can use it freely and upgrade it as well!
We can’t wait for you to try it out! Lets us know down in the comments what are your thoughts on the hoover, the new key art, or both!
Until next time!
Cheers!
