Create a narrative prototype of your game in Ink\/Inky.<\/p>\n

It has to be playable in its entirety: all the areas, characters, chapters, endings, have to be there.
\n(it must also function as an asset list)<\/p>\n

It can and should contain placeholder content: you can have a passage that says: “poignant dialogue with the mother in which she reveals the protagonist is an alien” or “breath taking vista of Emerald City” or just quickly written stuff.<\/p>\n

Avoid generic and heavy lifting placeholders like “clever puzzle” or “minigame” unless you already have a specific design for them.<\/p>\n

Sketch it out on miro and\/or google docs as a team before implementing it in Ink.<\/p>\n

Some questions for the critique\/playtest:<\/strong><\/p>\n

What was your experience like, emotionally and intellectually. Did you get a sense of the themes?<\/p>\n

Where you stuck or confused at any point?<\/p>\n

In the interest of limiting the scope as much as possible, are the parts that are not strictly necessary?<\/p>\n

Are there parts that are definitely missing?<\/p>\n

Where there moments in which you wish you had more agency or options?<\/p>\n

Are there parts that could be communicated by “showing”, eg. through environmental storytelling?<\/p>\n

Any other feedback? Beware of feature creep suggestions (“you could add this feature\/location\/mechanic”)<\/p>\n
