Hear me out. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know, how Luka has a lot of popularity, prince of the stage and whatnot. So there has to be the potential of him having games. Of ALNST having game developer-aliens. Of games in ALNST in general. Aliens might get bored of the competition! It's not the only source of entertainment there needs to be! .so like......hear me out🥺🥺🥺
There's a lot of simple games —point and click adventure, RPGs, visual novels, dating sims, sandboxes— that would have Luka be the main center, or hell even the main character you can play as!
I think I mainly picture a visual novel-dating sim with him.. as obvious of a choice that is. A mixed art style of Higurashi and Doki Doki Literature Club. Some weird-ish aspects but not the focus (weird in an uncomfortable and off putting way, in our perspective- maybe only to kinda represent the idea of what happens during season 50).
The focus is the fact that you get to hang out with Luka. Maybe you guys are childhood friends, so that's how you'd get your change with him. The game highlights that connection— whenever he starts to slightly appear off.
Only for a few moments do you pick up on his strange behavior, whenever you are with him. The others (NPCs) notice it faster than you do (they don't have the same connection and he doesn't care for them as he does deeply for you but he still appears nice to them— the perfect human!). The weird behavior does disappear whenever something positive happens.
So there's no need to worry about the weirdness to go all haywire and something bad happens in the game.
The only goal in the game is to keep things positive and it's easy to do it! You and Luka are friends. So there's no big worries to deal with— game ends with a happy ending.
The weird behavior doesn't leave, per say when you finish. I don't know how to really explain it but- in my mind, the only thing I can equate it to is The Girl with the Green Ribbon. That type of off behavior ..if that even makes sense
