Alternate Storylines- Hailey Schindler

City of Abominations (2021)
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

What’s better than one storyline? Three storylines.

Hello, I’m the creative director and narrative lead, Hailey Schindler. I work with narrative designers and the art department to oversee the creative vision of the game. A recent decision we made for the game to keep it more engaging through different playthroughs is to create three alternate storylines. The storylines will be cohesive, centered around one main event, but will have citizens’ various takes on what really happened. 

It's going to be a challenge keeping each individual storyline exciting while also keeping the player just as engaged as the first run-through. It will push our creative team and I'm excited to put in the work to make it great.
