the story is pretty generic but also really fun. Wish there was more gameplay inside of it. But overall pretty good

@rocket-and-blanky I don't share source code but the gist of it is really simple. I have a bunch of game objects on the scene representing each room, them I create a C# script with a coroutine entry point where I script the dialog.

I also use this asset for the dialog box and choice menus. https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/game-toolkits/fungus-34184

Hello xkoster!

Here is the link to the correct place in the video archive of our stream yesterday: https://www.youtube.be/watch?v=IQdJ_KaE1bI&t=1267s

Thanks for being there :v:

This is a really really good game. Awesome low pixel graphics, great Sci-Fi story with nice choices. Very easy and satisfying action sequences.

The only thing we suggested to improve would be to add a bit more player interaction in-between large amount of text. As I re-watch the video, it doesn't have to be action scene, but it could just be more choices (even if they don't impact the outcome of the story)

Here is my end picture:

Wow, despite the "simple" graphics this was a very engaging game. There is something about the dialog and story that is just right. Music fits very well. Good job.

Nice game! The music fits very well into the story and gameplay. The simple graphics are not an issue in my opinion. Great job :smile:
