addedYesterday I Updated the demo build. With this new build comes the addition of a brand new intro that overhauls the tutorial and adds in a story into the game. Over the past month and half I've been adding a bunch of new features into the game that should help narratively introduce more people to the game.
addedThe first notable addition is that of a dialogue system which I made from scratch that can handle pretty much anything you can expect from a dialogue system. I've added in tech to have small narrative clues that will vary each playthrough so keep you eyes peeled for those in the future.
addedWith the new intro I've also redone the tutorial which should now be more in line with what people expect. The old intro was pretty hard and it did stop many from getting even past the first door. My hopes are that with this new flow we should be able to get many more people into the core game loop.
