✦ Frugal's Flight Minigames ✦  

two games

• A roguelike pachinko game, inspired by Peggle and Balatro
• A tower defense game inspired by Bloons. Class towers and enemies from WoW.

need to know info

• the addon is less than 2mb unzipped
• almost all assets pulled from forever, made to look like it belongs
• wooden/natural sounds combined with WoW interface sounds
• options to scale window, mute sounds
• low cost to run, nothing running in the background when not playing
• auto open on flight toggle, or open with /games
• what if we took peggle and plus-ed it all up

why?

• missed peggle
• I think its a good format to inject roguelike/advanced scoring elements
• really don't enjoy the current minigame offerings gameplay and file-size
• cant stand aesthetic clashes with my addons, ruining the base UI vibe with neon colors and new fonts

PegCraft

• try to clear the 25th board, spending orbs on each throw
• choose from 6 class masters that modify your orb
• score is calculated at the end of each throw, inspired by balatro
• hit score thresholds, get more orbs to throw
• after each board, choose from a selection of buffs that persist through the run
• make decisions around synergy with a limited buff selection row
• find a balance between gameplay enhancing buffs, or score enhancing buffs
• spend orbs to increase buff inventory size
• play to get the highest score possible before the run ends
• automatically share your highest score to your guild                     

(it might be too easy to beat this one, i am tuning the score curve before adding more fun stuff)

Keep Rush

• play through 8 maps, with 3 difficulties
• place towers based on wow classes to defend against incoming waves
• upgrade your towers and try to cover your bases against armoured, immune, fast, and high hp enemies
• earn a medal for completing a map's difficulty without losing a life
• automatically share your medal count with your guild

(it might be too hard, please give feedback)

A.I. disclaimer, Claude coded this, but it wasn't a one-shot. This was built from zero incrementally adding new mechanics to make sure everything feels intentional, bug free, and satisfying

i will continue to tweak the balance of the game, especially the peg score curve. our tower defense game, keep rush, may receive more updates for tower upgrades/flavor. not tryin to reinvent the wheel for some fun during flights lol
