So for the last few days, Mark, Scott and I have been camped out in South Carolina spending time with our senior programmer, Tyler Drinkard. Pushing 16 hour days have been exhausting but well worth it! We have made major head way towards the finish line. One thing that happened today that was really exciting was going through the brain storm process with Mark and Scott. There is a portion of the game near the end that has never felt quite fleshed out in terms of puzzle and story.
Essentially, without spoiling anything major, Ace lands on a planet and there is a small puzzle that needs to be figured out to progress. The issue that we had there was trying to work out the comedy and make the portion of the game worth while. A lot of ideas went back and forth as to what would workout and what wouldn’t. And of course, there must be some good parodies involved! Well let me just say, you won’t be disappointing in the least. I nearly spit soda all over my laptop a few times.
Anyway, the below picture isn’t meant to show any of the comedy, and it is very vague, but Mark drew this up while we were discussing everything. I figured I’d share it here. It shows Ace in a very tight spot that he will be in during this portion of the game..
