There’s almost 28 minutes of pre-alpha gameplay footage of Red Thread’s Dreamfall Chapters that has just released, and there are two versions to watch. One is led by dev commentary, and the other isn’t.
It’s a walkthrough of the prison escape from Friar’s Keep. It showcases the team’s approach to the dialogue wheel, where the character expands upon the choice before you make it.
We’re treated to an internal monologue of what the character is thinking, so it can help remove ambiguity as to what exactly we’re choosing for them to say or do.
Design director Martin Bruusgaard and creative director Ragnar Tørnquist provide the commentary. Dreamfall Chapters: The Longest Journey releases on PC, Mac and Linux November 2014. It’s powered by the Unity 4 engine.
