CHIM YOU'RE MAKING ME CRY 🤧
I don't even know what to say... This really made me tear up and is so wonderfully kind. Thank you so much for taking such time to write out all your thoughts like this, I really feel so blessed ðŸ˜ðŸ’•
I feel like I've slowly been getting better at direction and cinematography stuff with each of my games, so I wanted this to be kind of a culmination of so much of what I've learned so that it can feel really immersive. Maybe that's my strategy since I don't have choices or something LOL but also I just really enjoy it and this type of storytelling so much, so I just want to push what you can do in various ways and have a lot of fun with it. So I'm really happy that you enjoyed it! I loved getting to work with the different formats and stages for the scenes (though I still need to figure out if I'm going to carry through the comedic format once we get deep into horror territory... LOL will perhaps do some experimentation when I get there hahaha).
I'm so happy you liked the characters too. Gosh I really love writing groups like this so much... I love the chaos of it and the possibility for so many convoluted interwoven dynamics between all the personalities. It makes it a lot of fun to write, even if I sometimes reach the end of a scene in complete bewilderment as to what I just wrote LOL And even if the particularly chaotic scenes take forever to script 🤣 Ah well. Writing different vibes of friendship between all of them was very enjoyable, especially when trying to weave in this feeling of knowing each other for so long and all the other complicated emotions that may be at play for one reason or another. Suffice to say I just really love writing groups of friends ðŸ¤
You make such an interesting point about the adulthood thing with all of them at these different stages and on their own paths and having had to make different (hard) decisions about stuff. This has definitely led to a lot of ways their dynamics have changed over the years... sometimes for the better, sometimes for worse... Indeed though unfortunately I'm going to come in and ruin it all, aren't I? It's pretty much what I do 🤣 Because characters (and people) aren't perfect and sometimes they do things that hurt others either consciously or subconsciously and those things can have drastic effects on others' lives. Let alone if anything uhhh... supernatural ends up being involved 😀
But I digress.
Reading this really made my night!! Thank you so so much for all your wonderful thoughts and for playing this little demo. I'm tickled pink that you enjoyed it so much and just really honored to receive such high praise. So thank you again!! 💕
