Genetic Ability (Skill Tree)

Skill Tree Introduction

As COCOON’s ultimate weapons, Ellen and her siblings have various kind of deadly abilities and they’re growing stronger each day. In Pale Blue, there’ll be an item called DNA Point which player could obtain by finding them hidden in each mission, completing a certain achievement, getting high rank and score in mission, or by interacting with NPC.

Using that point, player will be able to upgrade and unlock Ellen and her siblings ability. Each ability require a certain number of DNA Point to unlock it. Player will have freedom to choose which ability they want to unlock first. Although some abilities that were related closely to the progress of the main story would be unlocked in predefined order according to the story progress.

As for the editing mechanism, player could access Genome Editing menu from the computer inside 21st Lab, before entering any mission.
