The skyworld is an interesting idea that could be worth exploring. The only problem with that is, I don't want to force the player into inflation if he/she doesn't want to. So, it would probably be a small little bonus area at best.
The mountains have to be similar to and match the other areas in the sense that all of them have a particular type of expansion and theme that they are tied to.
A futuristic area is out of the question as it directly goes against the content ban list.
Macro/micro is a very difficult idea to implement that we are already considering. There are many things that need to be considered that will both impact gameplay and pose challenges in the back-end. Additionally, the idea of the fluid changing of some kind of alignment (purity/corruption) is already being discussed. The consequences of such a system are massive in terms of the sheer amount of content that will need to be created to fully warrant the use of such a system in the first place.

I have an excellent enemy idea that will tie in discovering the "skyworld" as well. Or perhaps a floating garden?

For the floating island thing I would suggest a really really big cannon for non-inflatable players.

If we're getting a skyworld, would it be possible to go whole-hog and get a marine world? Of course to access it you'd need some sort of amulet or something to allow you to breath underwater.

i saw something about lypomancy in the game's comments. please make this a thing. Oh, lipomancy is definitively in. The only question right now is whether it will be the basis to all magic or whether it will be just an extra thing people can do. That all depends of whether the AP system we are designing works well enough.

It's different from the AP system, but could be used in conjunction with it if the player learns lipomancy.

If you mean transferring fat from one body to the other then yes. If you mean turning fat into power then the AP system already does that by draining your fat to power stuff when the gauge runs out.

It's an extra thing for the player to do for fun. Lipomancy is just the direct transfer of fat between bodies.

Then we are still on the same page, it was just wording.
