making things personal

A downloadable game for Windows

i'm finally starting to feel like i have something to build off of. 

i don't have every feature i want added into the framework yet. i still want to add in choice dialogues to make things a lot easier in menus. i want to handle the text better in general. but i have a lot here. 

i made this video as a celebration to what i have done so far. 

my vision of the game is to be very powerful emotionally. the way i want to do this is by nudging the person playing the game to think things over by asking questions with no black or white answers. to make these questions more powerful, i could make it more personal. if the person creates the player in the image of themselves, and names them after themselves, perhaps that will drive the emotional experience further.

that's why i added in a character creator, in short. 

you can pick from a few different eyes, a few different hair types, pick your clothes, and change the colors of everything. i still want to add in a small backdrop that you can change the color for to see what colors you are choosing (4 colors is harsh...) but besides that the character creator is pretty much finished.

this is all for today. i hope you think this is all as cool as i do!

thank you!
