General Description

An unsettling sight. A cartoon duck, bright yellow, thin legs and orange bill. Seemingly out of a kid's drawing. It makes its presence known, tormenting all those it can find to play its sick games. Do not fail it, find its grape and meet its demands. There is no escape.

When a duck walked up to a lemonade stand, it asked for grapes.

Gameplay

When the duck spawns, its narration can be heard across the entire moon. Wandering inside, it searches for players. When it finds a player it will chase them until it can catch them. If a player is caught by the duck, they will be given a quest, find the grape or die. A grape icon will appear and players must find it and bring it to the duck before time runs out. Giving the grape will succeed its quest and it will leave, letting you keep the grape as a scrap. Sometimes the duck isn't satisfied with just a grape. It may ask for lemonade after receiving the grape, forcing players to do its quest again. Failure to meet its demands in a timely manner will result in players being brutally killed no matter where they are.

Lore

A being of pure TORMENT. The incarnation of EVIL. A GODLIKE entity of unfiltered WRATH. This seemingly innocent and cute creature is an extremely powerful entity capable of warping reality to its will. Luckily, it seems to find pleasure in torturing unsuspecting employees rather than reality ending. It uses its sick games to entertain itself, sending employees on a wild goose chase for a grape as they panic. Before its arrival to the thistle nebula, it used to reside in its pocket dimension. A world where the Duck would regularly annoy everyone everyday, favoring to toy with the man behind the lemonade stand the most. Everyday without fault, eons of constant mind degradation. The duck broke him. However it grew bored and decided to leave and find something else, finding joy in tormenting scrap collectors in orange. Their screams of terror, the way they would run away from it. It was paradise.

Strategies

It can be rewarding to do its quest due to the scrap it gives however if the interior is complex it might be best to avoid it. The duck is easy to avoid, being bright and easily spotted. It also announces its spawn globally and moves slower than the players run. Getting anywhere near it when its chasing will initiate the quest. When the quest is given, players will have 2 minutes to find the grape. Do not hit the duck during its quest as each hit reduces the quests timer by 1 second. If a player dies during the quest, the 2 minute timer will not reset for the next person it finds, leaving them with less time than the first person. Winning the quest resets its timer and makes it not target players for 5 mins. Upon completing the first grape quest, there is a 25% chance it will ask for lemonade right after. The grapes value ranges from 0-100 value, the lemonade's value ranges from 50-200.

Dev History

The duck enemy is an old concept, being started in May 2024. The duck was meant to be a standalone mod but was later integrated into the mod when the enemy was remade and finished in V0.9.3. Its heavily inspired by the Football enemy, being a mix of goofy cute and scary.
