Bone Machines
BONNE MACHINE is a simple toolkit for creating evolving skeletons in an ancient relic-lit landscape that must overthrow oppressive rulership classes to survive and thrive under constant change. The gameplay involves collecting items, fighting enemies using the skeletal body equipped with unique abilities defined by inventory choices made at any given time without predetermined class or character customization limitations but requires strategic decision making on priorities for protection of higher in-inventory objects from damage as well as managing their possession effectively while switching between them throughout game play to gain a more diverse range of skills and traits. KEY FEATURES:Invincibility is everything, your abilities/traits are next to every other item found; the skeletal body defines who you become with constant redefinition through inventory management that keeps changing over time as character parts get lost or replaced by enemies in a constantly evolving game world where no one knows what exactly will happen.
