I think you likely spent way too much time on the environment
That is true, I’ve actually always had this problem. I understand that the primary goal and the first thing that needs to be done should be the main mechanic, but for some reason I need the game to look cool (at least in my eyes) to have motivation and urge to continue working on it.
When playing I assumed you just checked for keywords, something like:
I kind of did this but in a weird way. The code you provided doesn’t assume that the player could’ve asked any kind of question starting with the word “where”. But at the same time vast majority probably really would’ve meant to know where the body was so I guess I really should’ve done this.
The kind of answer you got (“You don’t need to know”) is the type of response one is intended to get when he tries to ask some random question that has nothing to do with the actual walkthrough.
It is generally really hard to get “chat bots” to behave correctly but I really liked the concept of this idea so I just went for it. Once again, thanks a lot for a very detailed feedback!
