It's a Wonderful Jack

Frontierville Productions presents, It's a Wonderful Jack...

It's the story of one old man who's had a tumultuous year full of ups and downs and now finds himself bereft of the one thing he held dear, he's lost the Key to the Homestead.

This has sent him into a sad spiral and he's starting to wish he'd never been born, so it's time for a good soul to step and and show Jack just what the world would be like without him... Which means it's time to dust off that halo!

Now, where's that black and white filter... roll cameras!

As usual, lets welcome a popup to start...


That will indicate the arrival of an 8 mission, 2 wrapper, 1 Monday mission thread (all details HERE). As ever though with this kind of thread we won't have a connected building, but we will have some placeable decorations, the Leadership Scene, Family Scene and Education Scene...


Those will have a fishing mechanic for mission items and other sellable goodies, but also access to the wonderfully drawn map screen...


In a very cute design feature this map will feature icons that show just how well Jack is feeling about the homestead and his place in it, if he's not around the well loved characters we know are either missing (Jack and Fanny) or unhappy (rioting homesteaders and even a single-mom Bess!)

 
 Don't worry though, things go back to normal when we complete them...


The missions themselves are everything we'd normally expect, including a very angelic new injured "animal"...


Helping heal that will be a new crop, Angel Wings...


...which will also come from the new Collection, Jack's Influence Collection.


So, lets see if we can get the new Decoration with a Bonus, Wonderful Jack...


...and, something that will resonate with people who know a certain film, if we manage to save Jack and make him happy with his life, an angel gets its wings... Literally!


So, lets get cheering the old geezer up.
