In my previous comment I briefly talked about being able to trade lumber/wood for skins. Skins would be complete redos of blobby Examples-
Turn him into a pig (just a pig's head),
Turn him into a pumpkin,
etc.
They're like different characters. I'll show a screenshot of a example sprite in my next comment.
I have a suggestion! I thinj it'd be difficult to do, but if you pulled it off, it'd be cool:
Tools~
Hatchet- While on/next to forest tile you could activate it to collect wood to buy skins(←check next comment)
Picaxe- When near/ ontop of a rock tile, you could mine it for gold to buy hats.
Hoe- When on farmland tiles you could use it to get food.
Toy- Can be used anywhere, and increases happiness
This us SUPER AWESOME! I'm so hyped for this game! You even put in the forest map/biome thing! Thx. Bye the way, you did really well on the new forest map!
