More realistic interaction!
Day 36
Hi,
Today (although I’m writing this really late—just wanted to record the streak), I worked on making interactions with travellers feel a bit more realistic.
I looked into some successful games, and I noticed that their interactions with NPCs are often enhanced by giving players simple options to choose from.
So, I created an option panel where the player can choose how to interact. Some examples:
- “Do you want to buy?”
- “Do you want to sell?”
- “Do you know anything?”
- “Do you need anything?”
- “Quests”
Of course, I’m not going to show all of these at once. Different types of travellers will activate different options automatically—so the player just clicks and feels the difference without being overwhelmed.
I don’t want to complicate things too much, so for the demo I might stick to just:
“Do you want to buy?”
Thanks for reading, and I’ll come back for the next blog post!
