Prodigy Re-write Pt.1
Obviously this re-write of Prodigy means it’s not gonna be a fetch quest math game anymore <3 Through a cutscene the player wakes up in their house to the sound of a voice urging them to wake up. Like the start of the original game, the player is awoken by Noot. Noot explains to the player that they’re late and they need to get ready and he’ll be waiting for them outside. The player character then walks in front of a mirror, to get themselves ready, and are sent into the character customization screen. The basic choices for character customization in the original were sub-par at best, leaving out hair types and certain skin tones. This character customization would include a more masculine and more feminine hairstyle for each type of hair (Ex: Short choppy straight hair and then longer more flowy straight hair.) Hair color, eye color and skin color can be selected using a wheel (and yes it would allow for unnatural skin colors). Once the player is finished with their design they would be automatically moved outside to meet up with Noot. This would trigger another cutscene with Noot explaining about the academy, the Warden Keystones and why you were accepted into it. Noot would then ask the player for their name. The player, as usual, runs into a wild monster along the way to the academy and Noot gives them a beginner wand and teaches them the fighting mechanics. The elemental system has changed a bit. Elements are strong and weak against multiple things now, the only exception being Shadow and Light magic which are strong and weak against each other. Fire is strong against Ice and Earth. Earth is strong against Storm and Water. Water is strong against Fire and Storm. Ice is strong against Water and Plant. Finally, Storm is strong against Fire and Ice. The player is able to defeat the monster, and Noot continues leading the player to the Academy. The player is able to get into the academy and just as Noot is beginning to start his tour, he’s interrupted by the one and only Puppet master! (Start cutscene) He gives the player and Noot a glare, but he doesn’t really engage with them until Noot antagonizes him. Due to his annoyance, he casts a spell towards the player. The player is hit by the blast and collapses to the ground. They’re later on woken up by Noot. Noot is panicking telling the player that they’ll find a way to fix this. The player of course sees that the Warden Keystones are shattered and is like ‘oh no this is bad! What happened to the Warden keystones?’ Noot shakes his head “The Puppet Master shattered them, but right now I’m more worried about you.” The player responds by telling Noot they’re fine which prompts Noot to say. “You’re not! Your magic! Look at your hands!” The player would be met with an animation of them raising to hands to see that they’ve turned to a dark purple black. Arching swirls climb up their arms from their hands. “The Puppet Master’s magic has corrupted your magic…”
