Hi everyone, I’m back with a new and (in my opinion) exciting project.
Sunset is a character driven game set in a pre-apocalyptic world, i.e. the very near future. However the sun is perhaps setting on the care-free, easy-going life of today’s young generation as war is on the horizon, war of a scale and ferocity not seen for nearly a century.
The story starts in present day (nearly) London as you begin your new job at the Home Office (UK interior ministry). You meet a group of people of your age (fresh out of university) and begin to get to know them. Approx. half of the game will take place before the war breaks out, the point being you should only care if a world collapses and people suffer if you have lived in that world and you know the people. There will be less combat that Divided We Fall as I fell like I sort of did infantry combat writing in DWF.
Anyway, I don’t want to say too much other than please try out the first chapter below, any and all feedback is as always not only welcomed but encouraged!
Hi all, thanks for the replies, especially for the encouragement from many of you! @CazzCity thanks for pointing this out, will get it fixed. Ha, maybe I’ll give you the chance to wear some oxfords in a later scene! @Shawnheatherly thanks, I envisage it as 8 chapters, this is the first so I guess pretty long… @Crotale could you give a bit more detail re grammatical errors (please) @KitsuneGoto types of men’s shoes @markamadeo ah yep, thanks for pointing this out
Ok just finished it. I have to say that it was very fun. I started really well and I thoroughly enjoyed kneeing the perv jaja. I’m not English so I didn’t get all the regional words and I didn’t know anything about those schools, but I definitely look forward to seeing where you go with the game/story.
@Zanite thank you very much! And well done, 10 points, first one to notice that, Cunningham is definitely inspired by Malcolm Tucker, for those of you who don’t know, he’s a character from the British political comedy The Thick of It and the film In the Loop. I think there’s an American version called Veep but I’ve never seen it
You use instead of sometimes showing things like something something blah blah [i/] rest of the paragraph.
There are things like “Aren’t you going to say hello to Him?” that shouldn’t be capitalized. Some others, I don’t remember them and it would take like 15min to go find them again.
