Overview

Golems are ancient creatures that the new inhabitants of the world can't fully comprehened, even though they didn't hesitate to promptly use them for their most laborious tasks. All the golems the inhabitants found are today "employed" in the local Lumbermill, where they work hard to sustain the excessive wood conspumption of the Village, but no one heard from the Lumbermill after a mysterious event seems to have made the Golems go rogue.

These once powerful enemies used to have an elaborated AI with diverse and elegant attack patterns that made the most out of the combat system, that is until (Developer Name) accidentally deleted it when trying to implement the new and shiny Lobster Enemies.

Now these golems sit still in the Lumbermill, no longer able to audaciously fight the player. Instead, they could be more useful when re-programmed to actually complete their tasks and continue sustaining Lake Village with their precious Wood.

Gameplay

Golems are the primary gameplay element of the [Lumbermill]] level. The player can access them using the [Logic Editing mechanic and give them commands to make them complete Puzzle Design. Along with Pushable Blocks, Golems are the only object heavy enough to activate Buttons.

Golem Colours

Golems belong to a specific colour, observable in their Lumberjack shirts. Every golem of the same colour will operate on the same logic, so when a blue Golem moves, every other blue Golem moves and so on. Golems can change colour when they interact with WheelBarrows: when they do, they immediately start executing the Logic of the new color.

Extention Ideas

• Golems could go "rogue" in specific situations and start attacking the player in classic top-down action dynamics
