With the ghost ship progressing and most rooms actually already being finished, we've come to realize we've done something different with this dungeon that we haven't done before, and we're not sure it's a good thing.
Usually we start off with sketches of every room and make sure we can run through each of them in a row, just like the dungeon would actually be, before we make the final art. This time however, because Teddy and Fred were so busy getting the last bits of the desert completed, we decided against that and had me work on making the completed rooms first thing. What that has lead to is that we have a lot of finished rooms, but we haven't even had a possibility of running through the dungeon in its entirety yet as we usually do.
To remedy this, I'm going to take a break from the ghost ship exterior and focus on making quick sketches for the last bunch of rooms that haven't been made yet, so that Teddy can put them all into the game and we can try it out and see what it feels like.
That was one of the things we discussed in today's meeting. The other thing was that strange section I've mentioned before, where you'll find yourself awaken back in Startington, but it's a Startington that's weird and kind of off. Previously, we wanted 4 mini "challenges" or events to take place here, but for now we've settled for three - each one representing obsession, expectations and deceit. These three elements are key to the story in various ways, and by adding these 'challenges' / cutscene things we'd like to put some emphasis on that. The deceit one is still in the sketching phase but will likely involve the artifacts you've been collecting in some way... Stay tuned for more on that ;)
