changedThe main question we’re facing right now is: how should we end this chapter? We want to convey the drama of the moment when Liza hits a dead end. We have an idea to insert an active 3D FPS segment at the end, in the vein of classic survival horrors. It gives a false sense of hope and heightens the impact of the finale. On the other hand, we’re afraid of losing the "meditative" quality of the visual novel.
addedFor us, Grim is about the weight of choice. What do you think: is it worth adding dynamic first-person segments, or is it better to stick with text and atmosphere?
