Will this game be linear, or will the players’ decisions have an impact on the outcome of the story? So, when the words are written upside down and you’re scrolling to read them, you are actually walking north (if that makes sense!) The layout of the words create maps, so every chapter is a certain area of the island, viewed from above. So we know exactly how all the places on the island are connected. This also makes DEVICE 6 better suited to play in more than one session.īut to make sure the world feels believable, we’ve internally drawn maps of the island and every place. So that makes the flow and progression is somewhat different from Year Walk, every chapter is in a way a big puzzle that needs to be solved. In fact, the primary goal in the game is often to find a way to get out from these areas. In contrast to Year Walk, it’s not one big overworld, instead the game is divided up in chapters with secluded areas. Will the player be able to explore a world like in Year Walk or is DEVICE 6 based on another way of traveling through space and time? But there are things that might make you feel a little uneasy at times, perhaps. It doesn’t have a horror-vibe like Year Walk. And while I know it has nothing to do with Year Walk, will it be eerie? I really loved how eerie and unique Year Walk was. Oddly enough, text adventures haven’t been a very big source of inspiration at all! But most inspirations are from TV, films, music and books.
So it has elements of adventure games, specifically “escape the room”-type of games. But it draws inspiration from a lot of the same games that Year Walk did. It doesn’t really fit into a certain genre. What genre is DEVICE 6, is it like Year Walk? Is this the nail in the coffin for the Simogo we know for cute, loveable characters? No, but it does comment on some things in our world that we have been thinking quite a bit about. Is Device 6 based around any factual information or events like Year Walk?
It seems we got quite a few questions when we mentioned that we could do a DEVICE 6 Questions and Answers blog post.
