Mythology Based Platform Game, (what), bibble* - Coggle Diagram

- - - - Resolution
- - - - Satisfying challenges
      - Fairness. Game over should always be the players own fault
      - Enemies
        
        Don't throw in tons of enemies at once unless the player's character can deal with large groups of enemies quickly (Simpler enemies work better for this)
        
        Make the enemies move and attack in different ways to provide more of a challenge to the player as well as to make them more interesting.
        
        Make their designs interesting but keep it simple, if they're going to be appearing multiple times throughout the game they need to look interesting to not make them boring and generic but not too complex as that could distract the player
      - Make it feel unique rather than just having it be a generic level (Think Sonic Mania rather than Super Mario Bros)
      - Introduce the gimmick of the level in a safe controlled environment and slowly increase the difficulty of the level and the situations with the gimmick over the course of the level (Working backwards through the level may help with this, Look at Megaman 11 and Shovel Knight for examples)
    - - Possible Idea: Match the style of art from when the chosen myths were around
    - - Background
        
        Can have multiple layers to it which can scroll at different speeds, parallax scrolling
      - Foreground
        
        Idea: Have enemies jump onto the midground from the foreground and/or background
      - Midground (Where the player is)
- - - - The entire bibile
