Moving on, in the same style as earlier post, where I discuss each section of a scene and what went behind it, so that I can then write about it on my project report.

Scene-to-scene

1. Ghost points player towards a riddle

What? A ghost points player towards a riddle. At the first section like this (one above), the game also displays tutorial icon so that player know they can scroll around. On the screen, there’s also ability to navigate back to the map and a little question mark providing accessibility for if you can’t go to the place.

Why?

• Introducing the ghost and establishing the player-ghost relationship, where player always sees the ghost before and after riddle-story.
• It makes sense for ghost to be viewed up close after it has been waving. The ghost is pointing player the way
• These are the ghost’s memories. Player doesn’t know this yet, but it will click into place later.
• Again, ghost is supposed to be iconic rather than realistic
