So I'm making a runner game but I'm slowly running out of ideas. I plan to add a shop, but idk what to add after that. D:

Can someone check it out and help me?

It is my game Derpathon.

So nobody can help?

Your game's page doesn't have any "Features:" thing but from what I've seen it lacks and could be added different types of terrain (Ice in which you would glide or Lava which would make you lose health or die right away, depending on whatever the player has health or not).

You could also add some boosters, either one kind (which increases speed when picked up while running) or different kind (randomly choosen when picked up while running), harder levels could also have some debuff, making it risky to always pick them.

Last but not least you could also try to add different modes, like a race mode (Player versus 3 AI?) or a challenge mode in which you have to finish up the level in x minutes, and by winning those modes you would get a reward (new unlockable players? coins? permanent stat boost?)

Those are just a few ideas, it would surely help to have a list of features in your game's summary page.

Frankly, it's tough to give suggestions with lack of information like this. I had to read your game page first before knowing that you have shooting ability

Anyways, I have many ideas in my head Buuut before I could share some, why don't you share more informations about your game? let's start from these questions:

1. What will you shoot with shooting ability?

2. Is there any hurdle or obstacle you can destroy with shooting?

3. When exactly shop appears? is it between stages or is it after touching shop icon?

4. How many HP player has?

1.

Already made that. Waffles. (You will be able to buy more projectiles in the shop with coins.)

2.

The problem with that is that you have ammo. So if there is an obstacle the player can't destroy from low ammo. Game Over.

3.

Lol. PC game. Python doesn't work with mobile. After you die.

4.

None. You lose by getting knocked off of the screen by French Toast or platforms.

Ah I see, you can shoot but you have limited ammo. That means you can sell ammo in shop, sell alternate projectiles or temporary unlimited ammos (gone after some time and after dying)

You lose by getting knocked off of the screen by French Toast or platforms.

Hmmm... why not selling temporary invincibility at shop? or sell extra HPs?

Btw, you can collect Waffle Mix to get more ammo. (While ur playing. Not in the shop.)

add some boss battle and after you won you get the boss ability or maybe unlocking the boss as playable char
