Writing of the story for ESCAPE FROM MILL STATION game project is wrapping up this weekend

Community Showcase Game Development

Hello everyone.
Just dropping a quick note.
I am on the very last level of the game, writing the story, cinematics and dialogue of the characters.
I will be wrapping up this weekend. :slight_smile:
There will be revisions of course but I am basically happy with the framework.
I had a lot of time thinking about it so it wasn’t very hard to “get it all out”.

Next step will be casting real people for shooting 3D modeling and animation references.
I already have a small studio in mind here in Bellingham that belongs to a theater group.
I also have the people in mind I want to ask to perform for me so we will see how that goes.

New stats for story script:

  1. Total pages: 184. (this number came down as result of format corrections.)

  2. Number of levels: 15.

  3. Number of cinematics: 103

  4. Number of IM’s: 7

(IM’s are “involuntary movement”, almost interactive cinematics but the player can only move
the follow camera around. He or she cant control the actions of the character.)

I am still working cutting down on cinematics :slight_smile:
