A few people have asked about the verbs I’ve decide to use (or more specifically not use) in my game. To those who don’t know what I’m talking about, it’s the text commands in the bottom-left hand side of the screen (“Look at”, “Pick up” etc.). As you can see above, there are only five […]
As you’re probably aware, I’m feeling my way with a lot of this stuff, so I’d really appreciate your opinions on a couple of things! Click here if you’d like to subscribe to emails about the project.
