Two years ago I quit teaching to write a 251,833 word story about love under a regime that outlawed it. This week we’re probably passing 10,000 wishlists. I still refresh the number like it’s a typo…

In this screenshot, the player can choose "how to react" rather "what to do" (e.g. getting away from that situation).
We focused on expressing emotions rather than actions, leaving to player the freedom to choose how they feel about what is happening.
Even though the player can also decide what to do in some moments, we preferred to invite them to choose for themselves, rather than picking a "right" decision.

What better than listening to dungeon synth about goblins while writing dungeon stories about goblins? Though ours will be much more goofy. Love this:

Dispatch, de los creadores de juegos como The Wolf Among Us, es un videojuego episódico en el que gestionas una oficina de superhéroes.
Tendrás que tomar decisiones a la vez que avanzas en la historia. La narrativa promete ser uno de los puntos fuertes del juego.
Podéis echarle un vistazo en Steam y jugarlo en Linux ya que está verificado para Steam Deck.

🎮 Habe heute mit dem allerersten „Life is Strange“ angefangen - nachdem ich „True Colors“ durchgespielt habe, bin ich mega gespannt, wie alles begonnen hat. Den Schuldirektor hab ich schon mal angelogen… und kurz davor ein Leben gerettet.
Irgendwelche Tipps?
Welche Entscheidungen hast Du nie bereut?#GamingDad #LifeIsStrange #NintendoSwitch #SwitchGaming #StoryGame #MaxAndChloe #NarrativeGames 🕹️

„Empathy is a power, not a weakness.“ - Alex Chen
Gerade „Life is Strange: True Colors“ auf der #Nintendo #Switch beendet – und woah! Einige Momente haben mich emotional erwischt. Die Immersion: intensiv. Die Musik: wunderschön & berührend. Werde ich noch paar Tage darüber nachdenken…
Jetzt frage ich mich: Lohnt sich der Blick zurück auf Teil 1 & 2? Wie habt ihr die Reihe erlebt?
