Lab Rats 2 Reformulate -ongoing- - Version- 202...

One of the most requested features now works properly. Reformulate introduces a priority task system:

Older versions had a binary stat: Submission. Reformulate splits this into Loyalty (willingness to follow orders without serums) and Compliance (the effect of active chemicals). This creates interesting gameplay loops where you might try to build a loyal inner circle while chemically pacifying the rest of the staff. Lab Rats 2 Reformulate -Ongoing- - Version- 202...

"Reformulate" is not a sequel, nor is it a simple bug-fix patch. It is a complete refactoring and expansion of the original Lab Rats 2 source code. The project began when modders realized that the original game's structure limited the number of concurrent characters, events, and research paths.

The goals of Reformulate are:

In the original Lab Rats 2, crafting serums felt linear. In Reformulate (202x versions), the chemistry system is modular. You now combine base reagents (e.g., Oxytocin Analog, Dopamine Inhibitor) with delivery vectors (Inhaler, Injection, Topical). The result is that a single "Obedience" serum can have vastly different durations and side effects depending on how you synthesize it.

Lab Rats 2: Reformulate is a resource management and visual novel game. Players assume the role of a character involved in business management and scientific research. The core gameplay loop involves staff management, resource allocation, and narrative choices that impact the direction of the business and relationships with non-player characters (NPCs). | Aspect | Original Lab Rats 2 (Final)
