To give the concept of how the inventions will work and delve further into this idea I made some blueprint sketches of some items your character will be able to make. These blueprint pages will act as the shop screen as you will have to elect the item you wish to invent from the blueprints as well as upgrade.
Starting with the Grappling gun this it shows yo the general snap of the invention as well as scribbling saying what makes the device interesting the key features if you will. These features aren't just for show as they are also the key features that you will adjust when making the upgrades once you own the item.
Once the item is invented you could highlight the aspect you want to upgrade and it will sketch out what about that feature will upgrade for example the hook will get a sharpened head so you can pierce certain materials as well as just hooking onto secure points. This image shows the item with all the upgrades. As you can see they are both visual as well as upgrades that will enchant your abilities.
These are two blueprints for another invention the mag-boots these will used to enhance movement around magnetic metals letting you jump higher or further and also walk up metal objects like piping or ventilation on a building.
