Plans for sketchbook functionality (Patreon)
Content
Unfortunately, 90 percent of the functionality I invented for the sketchbook had to be cut back. Otherwise, I would have been buried in the code for another year.
New characters are waiting for us in the next updates, we will draw our memories and see new scenes.
An important note - in the next versions, the following functionality will most likely be added:
Each next viewing of scenes from the sketchbook will expand the scene - more pictures, more MC thoughts and dialogues between the characters. Then, it will make sense to return, after some time in the already open memories.
Plus, the more often you go through the memories, the more your attitude to the character changes.
As you have noticed, the passage of scenes from the diary is completely optional, but the game takes into account whether you have passed them or not.
But this functionality is only for the characters from the past, so what to do with the current ones?
It's very rough preview.
I was thinking about the "current" optional quests. We have questions that we collect clues to. And then, if we have collected enough, we draw conclusions on which the choices in the dialogue depend.
Tips can be collected by noticing the details of the scene, from conversations, and perhaps from the phone.
Certainly, it is a plan on later versions, chapter V or VI.
