Some quick notes.
I loved the core loop diagram.
I was a little confused about controls, based on what's in the GDD. Do you control the ship or the characters (or both)?

So, you would simply be controlling the ship. Mechanically, the character are just idle animations- they each have their own respective dialogue options though, for you to choose when in a dialogue event. (Think of it as the character being the one responding to the policeman or biker or whatever.) We will definitely go through and make sure the controls are more defined before pre-production ends. Thanks for the feedback!
