Point-and-click adventure games seem to have seen a rise in recent years with the massive success of Telltale games and various successful Kickstarter campaigns like yours. It’s not a feature you have to use or enable, but we think it adds value and emotional depth to the gameplay experience.
Our goal is to make players feel part of a global community experiencing the story together. This social connectivity is important and valuable.
What’s unique about our approach to choice and consequence is that you can share your choices with the world, discuss and debate them, both before and after you’ve made a decision. Every choice matters, and there’s rarely a wrong or right choice - it’s all shades of grey. Some choices will change the course of our characters’ journeys, others will decide whether certain people live or die, and others again will be smaller decisions that shape conversations and relationships between characters. The choices you make in the game will, in many cases, have significant consequences. How much can we expect that the decision you make through the game will impact the story of the game? Can we expect different outcomes of the story depending on the choices we make? Our audience is already big, and we can embrace that audience and their needs wholeheartedly without making any compromises to our vision. We don’t have to “appeal to a bigger audience” or try to find a way to sneak an adventure game past publishers without them noticing by including more marketable gameplay. Also, the market has changed a lot since 2006: we can make a story-driven adventure game without combat and stealth, focus on the emotional gameplay experience, and be successful doing that. It’s haunted us ever since!įor Dreamfall Chapters, we have the freedom and the technology to make exactly the game we want to make - and, importantly, the game our fans want. So we were unfortunately stuck with the subpar combat. By the time we realised it wasn’t going to meet our expectations, it was too late to make any major changes. If you want to pause the game, load a game, change your options or save and quit your game.It was a mistake to have the combat be as poor as it was - that was obviously not our intention, but time, bugs and technical limitations got in the way. Within the menu, you can use to examine objects, and to combine items together. You can see your goals if you are lost and cannot remember what you were doing the last time you played. Your map, character library and journal will be located in the menu. While in this menu, press or to change tabs. Otherwise, you can mash B to skip dialogue. If you can't, the "no" sign will appear in the lower right side of the screen. The game doesn't always let you skip dialogue. This includes objects, talking to people and making decisions. If you want to keep stay zoomed in, hold. As soon as you let go, it will zoom out slightly. This will automatically bring the camera closer to the character. This will change how close or how far the camera is from your character. I will be providing an in-depth walkthrough, as most others that are available are in point form only, but will keep spoilers to an absolute minimum to maximize your enjoyment. Decisions (in a lot of cases) are also timed, so it may be beneficial to read ahead or to pause periodically. Certain decisions also have an impact on our achievements. When making a decision you can press to see how other people reacted before confirming your decision. Choices in this game have profound effects on your journey and the characters who you will encounter.
