RE: Nature - A Custom Story Concept/Story from Frawst

This story on the other hand, is pretty deep and sinister, I like the way that you get little glimpses of your childhood so you know something about your background, which hint that something was abnormal, but doesn't directly say what it was. Also, It is you, the player, who is the cause of it all, which I find great because it really makes you question everything you do.
There is only one flaw really - the player is free to do what he wants in game, he could act purely by emotion if he chooses, which would contradict Andrews lack of it.
All in all, I love your Lovecraftian styled stories, and this one is my favourite of the two. This is really worth using by someone. If I had the resources to make sound effects and flashbacks and I wasn't already making one, I would love to give this a shot.
Keep up the good work! Thanks for the feedback. Your idea of the 'freedom' can easily be changed by crafty map design with effects and whatnot, since most of the game takes place in dreams and whatnot, the only way to finish a level would be like forcing you to do something that *you* would naturally do, e.g. mame a little girls dog because she stole your eraser in class (idk, just a random idea haha)
