Theorycrafting this mod has been living in my head rent free.
What if we flavored Sans as techno instead of magic to fit more smoothly into the lore? Artificer's technology is pretty much magic, so there's not much lore wise to argue. Hell, we could make the survivor an Artificer like her, or like... from her cult/group in the lore. Bro could use electromagnetism instead of telekinesis, rebar rods instead of bones, and a couple of personal high-powered floating drones as blasters. I mean if Huntress can blink why not our boy Sans? Give that fucker a personal teleporter device.
Also shit, you could outright steal Mul-T's rebar instead of having to model bones. I've been thinking a lot about how we could reuse existing assets to the first draft to cut back on having to model or code new features.
Reusable Assets for First Draft:
Passive:
=Transcendence (Stamina bar)
=Wax Quail + Huntress Phase Blink (Shortcuts/Teleporting (Make Sprint speed the same as walking speed to balance? (Lazy Skeleton doesn't like to run)))
=Blight (Karma)
Primary: Bones.
=Rebar Punch Projectile (Bones)
=Arrow Rain Projectile (Blue Bones)
=Vulcan Shotgun? (Animation (Not many characters raise their arm to attack))
Secondary: Blue Attack
=Effigy of Grief (Cripple Status Effect. 50% Slow)
=Bubble Shield or Polar Feld Device (AOE of the ability? If affecting nearby enemies)
=Thermal Harpoons (Different targeting mode for inflicting Blue Soul?)
=Directive: Inject, Chronobauble, Symbiotic Scorpion, Shared Design, Her Biting Embrace (Code for making primary skill inflict a status effect?)
Utility: Telekinesis? or Teleporting?
=Huntress Blink (Teleport, NOT Phase Blink)
=Directive: Disperse (Telekinesis, knockback.)
=Darth Vader Mod? (Press to push, hold to pull? or Press to push, hold to root?)
Special: Gaster Blaster
=Railgunner Weapon (Model)
=Ballista, M99 Sniper, Cryocharge, Corrupted Drown (Firing mode?)
=Teleporter Exit Effect? (Summon/Dismiss Blaster)
