Sushi Smoothie

New Achievement! Sushi Smoothie!

An achievement the system admits it invented on the spot for punching a dead shark into red mist - rewards a sushi-making kit.

Story so far

Granted the instant Carl detonates the dead Concierge Shark with Daughter's Kiss. The text, in full flippant voice: 'Yeah, I just made this achievement up on the fly. But, holy shit! You annihilated that thing! It was really gross, too! You could probably start a business making confetti out of corpses with that skill! Next time use your foot. Reward: You've received a sushi-making kit!'

It is a small window onto how the crawl's achievement system actually works - improvised in real time by something watching, and used as much for editorial commentary and coaching as for reward. The 'next time use your foot' note is genuine tactical advice: Carl took a sliver of self-damage from the blast and was thrown across the alley along with Donut.

Role

A comic achievement that also documents the improvisational nature of the system's reward layer, and rewards a sushi-making kit.

Relationships

Daughter's Kiss — The skill that earned it.
Concierge Shark — The corpse annihilated to get it.
Sushi-Making Kit — Its reward.
