# My proposal
|
||
|
||
### <span style="color: #947352"> 🍞 Toasti 🧈 </span>
|
||
|
||
### Game Concept: 🍞 Toasti – Your Sentient Slice
|
||
|
||
A **cozy virtual pet game** where you care for *Toasti*, a slice of living toast with jam that changes color based on mood. Your actions—feeding, cuddling, toasting (gently!), and decorating—help Toasti stay happy, bouncy, and golden.
|
||
|
||
### 🧭 Inspiration
|
||
Toasti is inspired by [Tamagotchi](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamagotchi), the classic virtual pet game where you care for a tiny creature, and [Cats & Soup](https://cats-soup.fandom.com/wiki/Cats_%26_Soup_Wiki), a chill healing game with cute art and cozy vibes. I wanted to combine the emotional connection of Tamagotchi with the relaxing atmosphere of Cats & Soup—just with a weird, lovable slice of toast instead of a cat.
|
||
|
||
|
||
### 🎮 Game Overview
|
||
- **Goal**: Keep Toasti happy, warm, and emotionally fulfilled.
|
||
|
||
- ***No** final win/loss*, but Toasti reacts in real-time to neglect or care.
|
||
|
||
- **Evolutions**: Toasti unlocks new accessories (e.g., sprinkles, butter, whipped cream) based on affection levels.
|
||
|
||
|
||
### 🧩 Core Gameplay Mechanics
|
||
|
||
| Feature | Description |
|
||
| ----------- | ----------- |
|
||
| Mood System | Toasti’s **jam color** reflects mood (ex/ strawberry = happy) |
|
||
| Needs Meter | Stats: Warmth, Mood, Energy, Crustiness
|
||
| Interactions | Buttons for: Cuddle, Heat Up, Feed Jam, Nap |
|
||
| Reactions | Toasti shows **expressions**, jumps, flips, or cries jam tears based on treatment |
|
||
| Progression | Unlock toast skins (rye, sourdough), jam accessories, pet butter companion |
|
||
|
||
|
||
### 🧱 Code Structure (p5.js)
|
||
|
||
**Classes**
|
||
|
||
- `Toasti`
|
||
- Properties : `mood`, `warmth`, `energy`, `crustiness`, `accessories`
|
||
- Methods: `updateStats()`, `changeMood()`, `drawToasti()`, `interact(action)`
|
||
- `Button`
|
||
- For all interactions
|
||
|
||
**Key Functions**
|
||
|
||
- `drawUI()` – Draw mood meter, stats, and buttons
|
||
- `handleMoodLogic()` – Map stats to mood states
|
||
- `updateStatsOverTime()` – Reduce warmth/energy using millis() or frameCount
|
||
- `drawToasti()` – Reflect changes in face, jam color, and actions
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
### 🎨 Visual + Audio Ideas
|
||
|
||
- Soft pastel tones with hand-drawn toast sprites
|
||
- Jam color overlays using `tint()` or layers
|
||
- Background music loop: chill lofi or café ambience
|
||
|
||
|
||
### 🧠 Challenges to Expect
|
||
| Area | Challenge |
|
||
| ----------- | ----------- |
|
||
| Mood Complexity | Getting mood transitions to feel natural, not abrupt |
|
||
| Animation Timing | Making Toasti’s movements and reactions feel responsive |
|
||
| Structuring Code | Organizing the code into reusable parts, keeping logic and visuals separate |
|
||
| Debugging | Figuring out why buttons stopped working, stats behaving weirdly, etc.
