Making
The Sea Eternal was a
monumental undertaking. Its goal was to give players a rounded
experience that feels both immersive and player-directed. I wanted to
create a world where the players were dealing with realistic
characters that had needs that sometimes conflicted, and asked the
player how they wanted to sort through those different issues, in a
way that felt organic and natural. That took a lot of words (nearly
300,000*) and a whole lot of testing, editing, and polishing. But I'm
really proud of the way everything came together.
I've documented the different aspects
of design that went into pulling this all together down below, as
well as some aspects of the game design that mattered to me:

ReplyDeleteAh! You should definitely speak to the company, http://choiceofgames.com/ or perhaps Apple. I'm sorry that happened, and I wish I could do more to fix it.

ReplyDeleteI loved this story, by the way. I just finished playing it for the first time and I'm going to play it again. I especially connected with and understood Faye's struggle, being trans myself. And in a way, being able to tell her that she will always be herself and that I would support her gave me a small catharsis for the years of abuse I went through with little support. I appreciate that I had the option to tell her things I never got to hear. Thank you.
