This scan­dalous IM con­ver­sa­tion reveals the dark trou­bled lack of sync between the coder and the designer of Gourmancer.

Fruit Pie: Mon­sters carry parts.
Fruit Pie: They drop parts on death.
Fruit Pie: You pick up parts.
Fruit Pie: They also carry a ran­dom sea­son­ing 20% of the time.
Fruit Pie: Which might be too much.
Fan­tasy Heaven: oh snap
Fan­tasy Heaven: I thought they’d just be corpses and you extract ingre­di­ents based on tech­nique
Fan­tasy Heaven: (or ana­lyze to ruin the corpse but get lots of tech­nique)
Fruit Pie: I thought you’d get the parts and could ana­lyze THEM to get tech­nique.
Fan­tasy Heaven: welp
Fan­tasy Heaven: game ruined, 7drl failed

(Also I’m pretty sure it’s almost to playable sta­tus or some­thing.  I wouldn’t know, I just come up with stu­pid stuff then write the con­tent for Pie to copy/​paste.)
