Now that a lot of the base systems I’m going to need in the game are set up, I decided to start setting up some more independent rooms. These are nice because I can tweak them on their own without having to worry about the layout of the entire thing. I still don’t know the exact design of the halls, but puzzle rooms are self-contained and therefore easy to fix up in the future.

The nursery is going to include a puzzle and, as the name suggests, be filled with some creepy occurrences that are common place in a haunted house.

Here’s a sneakpeak of what that currently looks like.

This puzzle has put a lot of things on my to do list. For example, I need to figure out how once a dialogue choise is made, this can be reported back to an object. I also need to sort out how objects interact when two interactable things overlay one another. For example, a lamp on top of a drawer. I don’t need the drawer to do anything, per say, but I wonder if there is a better way to handle this than always creating duplicate items. One that is interactive and one that is just decoration.
