Howard and Harriet Uggs just had the best day of their lives and can’t help but feel like everything is going their way. They are so bursting with awesome fuzzies and desire for communal affection that they have been forced to go on a hug rampage. They’ve lost all inhibition. They are now hugging through the area with wreckless abandon, breaking and entering homes, disrupting businesses, and causing awkward situations everywhere they can reach.
Game View: Top down 2D
Setup: The two Uggs are trying to hug everyone in the area. When the level starts, they will walk around the area and attempt to hug any other people they can find. Each person in the level has a certain comfort level. The higher the comfort level, the more accepting they will be of Uggs hugs. Receiving an Uggs hug gradually decreases a person’s comfort level. When an Uggs hugs, their comfort level increases. If a person’s comfort is depleted they become agitated and push an Uggs away. Being pushed or bumped because of a push decreases a person’s comfort level, even the Uggs. You can increase the comfort level of people in the level by manipulating level objects.
Goal: Help the Uggs to satisfy their individual comfort levels by hugging others in the level and then finally hug each other without draining their own comfort levels.
Level Objects:
– Ice cream trucks that can be moved around road areas and increase the comfort in the area
– Obstacles that, when activated, block a path for the Uggs to reach each other again and have to be deactivated/cleared/circumvented
– Boxes of puppies that can be placed to temporarily increase the comfort in the area for a short time
– Dancing party robots that randomly travel around non-road areas increasing the comfort around them
