*uncontrollable laughter*

Concept: a Metroidvania where the very first item you get is a fuckoff ridiculous megagun with all the bells and whistles, like it shoots clustered homing explosive shots that pass through walls and turn dead monsters into ice statues or whatever, but the twist is that it’s a puzzle-focused game, and having all those features turned on at once makes the gun an incredible pain in the ass to use: the powerful shots utterly destroy switches rather than activating them; killing an obstructing enemy just leaves the passage blocked by the ice statue it leaves behind; one boss is impossible to attack directly because the homing behaviour keeps going for the minions it spawns; and so forth.

Each “upgrade” you receive for the gun is actually just a page from its user’s manual that teaches the player character how to turn one of its features off. The puzzle-solving focus is figuring out what specific combination of gun features you need to have turned on in order to overcome each obstacle, with gating implemented via puzzles that are initially impossible because they require you to turn off a gun feature you haven’t learned how to toggle yet.

For extra fun, maybe some gun features have multiple modes, and before you’ve learned how to configure them yourself them they’ll sometimes “randomly” switch modes in response to specific events; e.g., the initial freeze-ray effect is part of a suite of features that also includes a heat-ray, and sometimes it flips from one to the other for no obvious reason. The triggering events would always be stupid and inconvenient, like making the gun switch from charge mode to full-auto requires you to get it wet or something, so learning to to manually control it remains beneficial from a utility standpoint.

(There would be exactly one late-game puzzle where the answer to “which gun features do I need to turn on for this?” really is “all of them”, just to mess with the player’s mind.)

I love whenever these anti-horny internalized queerphobia weirdo funnymen show their entire asses about some trans women's cornball posts, then delete their blogs when everyone catches onto their bigotry bc that's easier than taking the L & admitting they shat the bed. Like what, are you scared of the fiery wrath of a bunch of broke furries nobody outside Tumblr gives a fuck about? Bc you sure as fuck had a lot to say just a few days ago lol
