Game Mechanics: Daily Life
The player has many opportunities to decide what to do with their life.
ABSTRACT IDEAS:
the 'standard playthrough' means that one will always get the same 'cards' or 'RNG seed'. But, this precludes the BEST ENDING.
much like Slay the Spire has 'cards' and 'relics', Crooked Wings would have 'cards' and 'relationship tracks'
CONCRETE IDEAS:
bonus for Church Rank N(?): higher chance of SURPRISE COFFEE DELIVERY
ENDING 1 (failure state): no win [Bad Ending]
The labor union established by the protagonists is weak and doesn't enjoy either popular support OR institutional support. It's doomed to get repealed within decades.
ENDING 2: institutional win [Good Ending 1]
The labor union established by the protagonists is strong, and enjoys institutional support. Unfortunately, the culture war has been lost, and it is threatened by decay
ENDING 3: popular win [Good Ending 2]
The labor union established by the protagonists is weak. However, the culture war has been won, and there is hope in the decades to come for similar reforms that will have better outcomes
ENDING 4 (locked behind NewGame+): dual win [Good Ending 3]
The labor union established by the protagonists is strong and enjoys both popular AND instutitional support. The protagonists and their allies rejoice! But, they are so successful that <some antagonist> Opens The Door and now there's a giant hell-fortress in the middle of New Yirooburg. [Week N]
STORY BEAT (Good Ending 3(?) achieved): Defeat the giant hell-fortress in the middle of New Yirooburg! Everyone throws a party. Hooray! [Week N+1]
