Hey guys, I am not that good in terms of making puzzles, so I'd like some of you to help me :)
I'm in dire need of some puzzles in a futuristic setting.
I already have a hacking minigame and redirecting power, but that's all :(
any idea is welcome!

how about say... 3 "switches" all set at values of 0


pull switch 1 it adds say 10 to value 1 and -3 to value 2


pull switch 2 and it gives -5 to value 1, +5 to value 2 and +2 to value 3


pull switch 3 and it give -3 to value 2 and +8 to value 3 


and they have to manipulate the switches to get a specified value in each before continuing?


(The numbers are just an example and you'd have to figure out the mathematics as to the required values)


You could do it like voltages to generators to open a door or something...

I like that one, you can put any kind of context on it and it's legit :D

Behold, the horrible colored tile maze!


Red tiles are impassable! You cannot walk on them!


Yellow tiles are electric! They will electrocute you!


Green tiles are alarm tiles! If you step on them... you will fight a monster!


Orange tiles are orange-scented. They will make you smell delicious!


Blue tiles are water tiles. Swim through them if you like, but... if you smell like oranges, the piranhas will bite you! Also, if a blue tile next to a yellow tile, the water will also zap you!


Purple tiles are slippery! You will slide to the next tile! However, the slippery soap... smells like lemons! Which piranhas do not like! Purple and Blue are okay!


Finally, Pink tiles. They don't do anything. Step on them all you like.


As for other ideas:


-Laser puzzle: Arrange mirrors, prisms, lenses and so on to guide lasers of different colors into the right sensors.


-Block pushing puzzles work in literally every setting.


-Repairing ships or equipment as a literal puzzle.

Don't forget, aspiring writers: Personality isn't what your characters do, it is WHY they do it.
Hello! I would like to know if there are any pluggings or any way to customize how battles look?
I was thinking that when you start the battle for it to appear the eyes of your characters and opponents sorta like Ace Attorney.
Sadly I don't know how that would be possible so I would be needing help! If you can help me in any way I would really apreciate it!
The biggest debate we need to complete on which is better, Waffles or Pancakes?
