Bored - Brainstorming on save challenges ?

[Patcheel]

The game is pretty linear/incremental, which is sometimes good, but I was thinking to add fun by starting a save with challenges. Like Nuzlockes in pokemon idk.

Thing Is, I don't have any ideas of what is feasible but I am brainstorming :

- One breed only
- One line only
- One line per breeds
- Maxing the horse and bring him to full potential before breeding him and do the next thing with the descendant
- No buying / reset the market : breeding only (hard mode lol)
- Extreme mode : Only produce one horse per parents, and even if he is very bad, use it to it's full potential before breeding it.
- Do an exception / a breedline for Any scenario challenges, but mainly use main challenge horses.


I'll start one game with :

- One line per breed
- Only one foal for one parent, and bring him to full potential before breeding him = I'm keeping the first mare. (to breed her to random stallions)
- No market reset, but stallion reset ok
- Exception for scenario challenges

This way I want to ""bond"" with my pixel horses more


Feel free to add anything

I mean, only one breed would just be Rival Stars before they added more breeds lol, so I think that one's redundant. But One Line only was actually something I considered doing myself.

Rules could include only being allowed to buy a horse if otherwise you wouldn't be able to continue the line (so if your offspring is a stallion), this would also assume you're only allowed one foal per mare. Alternatively you could say only the first filly from your mare will continue the legacy, instead of having to buy mares.
Horses the game makes you buy through the prestige tasks are excluded from the rules.

I once challenged myself to breed an entire stable block full of palominos (my fav horse coat lol) without using custom horses. It was a lot of work and a lot of fun! Kept me busy for hours and I really got to do a deep dive into breeding and horse genetics and pedigrees. It was so satisfying when I finished!

I am working on some gameplay challange that adds some random events into game via wheel picker like if our horse is fit enough to race this month (every horse can race or train once a month [or week] and we can upgrade one thing per month, after all horses were trained or raced the month is over), if horse raced well or get injured or even killed, which racetracks are avalibe this month/week... I think it could be fun, I just have to write down the rules :D

I'm loving reading all of the ideas. Typically I just try to breed the best possible combo using custom horses and experimenting with colors, but I actually want to sit down and challenge myself with something that would take me a long time to finish. I'd love to see someone make an official "Game Challenges" list with rules and stuff lol

more breeds would also be kind of neat instead of two but yk
