Plantation Fields of Newland

```
Back to City of Newland and Surrounding Areas

```

### **2.1 Overview**

Just after leaving the city there’s a huge field used for the cultivation of food. The horticulture fields have a great variety of plants, as vegetables, root vegetables, cereals, and fruits, and are very colorful due to the variations of the Plutonian vegetation. There are also some buildings spread in this area as barns, for animals breeding and cultivation, and storage buildings for seeds and cereals. Those buildings look like Earthling farm buildings, but with a more technologic touch. Surrounded by the forest, many farmers spend hours in there. There's a simple road, upgraded by those people to better transportation of resources. Many Plutonian's explorers also use it to reach the forest and beyond a bit faster. But, actually, something is wrong and out of place. Some little creatures don't seem to be original from that enviroment. They look like invaders and are creating a big mess, someone should stop them...

### **2.2 Player Experience**

There are little Icelings in the most advanced areas of the farm, which is uncommon. Some NPCs are afraid and agitated, and their tools are useless against those little creatures. That contrast of foes in a peaceful place encourages the player to "clear" the area and help the friendly farmers.

#### **2.2.1 Level Objectives**

**Main Objectives:**

* Defeat Icelings;
* Find out what’s happening;
* Help Farmers.

**Secondary Objectives:**

* Collect Food;
* Collect Loot;
* Gain EXP.

#### **2.2.2 Enemies**

**Bercies**

Commonly, Bercies are little creatures covered of ice stones. They’re brought to life through the energy expelled by the Energy Crystals and they're always attracted to it. Common tools can't cause damage to these little foes because of its hard cover. An Iceling alone isn't a problem, the real problem is that they're never alone.

**Bercies 2**

An “Bercie 2” is the evolution of a bercie. They have accumulated so much energy that they absorb ice stones around him and gets bigger and stronger. “Bercies 2” aren't as common as the bercies, but there are stories of caves full of these dangerous creatures. The “Bercie 2” of the Plantation Field was a singular bercie that was exposed for a long time near an energy crystal and evolved.

### **2.3 Look and Feel**

All that vegetation and circular area, with circular buildings and circular plantation fields, are supposed to create feelings of peace and joy. The color palette of the scenery is compounded of vibrant colors, selected to contrast with Icelings' colors. In some of the advanced areas of the Farm, the vibrant colors may be substituted by desaturated colors, trying to indicate that those areas ahead aren't as friendly as the current one.

#### **2.3.1 Architecture Style and Materials Used**

There are just a few buildings on the Farm. All of them remind of old-fashioned Earthling’s farm buildings because of the way the vertical stripes were carved in the metallic wall, simulating the vertical wood poles. The fence is made of the same metallic material, which is abundant in that planet.

 **2.3.2 Environment**

The bluish fog all over the surface is an always-notable characteristic of Pluto, even on the brightest days. The vegetation on the Farm, on the other hand, is colorfully contrasting to that bluish fog. The result is a harmonically color balance that gives such a beautiful view to players.

#### **2.3.3 Pacing**

At the initial levels, players will spend a little time fighting those  Icelings as they're learning the game mechanics of combat and trying to complete their initial quests. Probably, after leveling up, they'll just ignore those weak little creatures just by passing by them, looking forward to their next objective.

### **2.4 Gameplay**

#### **2.4.1 Weapons & Items**

At this time, players will be equipped with the Beginner SET, which will give them what’s necessary to fight and defeat Icelings. When defeated, those Icelings can drop ingredients and other loot items that may serve to complete quests or just to be sold. After completing those initial quests, players will be able to buy upgraded equipment.
