Want to see for yourself how it turned out? I got the whole intro on video.Dialog cards can be used as a drill to help learners memorize words, expressions or sentences. I didn't plan it, but (if I can say so myself) it turned out a nice twist in the story, even before the story actually starts. It changed the story completely, because he was supposed to lose his sister in a car crash, and that turned into a murder-by-clown. But, if she's in the back seat, then who is wearing her mask?Įven I did not know, when I started the scene, that the person in the clown wasn't actually his sister. It is his twin sister asking if the guys in the front could be quiet, cause she tries to sleep. Then, suddenly from the back seat of the car, there is a voice. She refuses to take her mask of and talks with a silly killer clown voice. She says she is not just a clown, but a killer clown. His sister stays in character, saying she actually is a clown and not his sister. He drives with his sister who is dressed as a clown.

Keep in mind, that this is the intro of a zombie story, not a serial killer story. I prefer instead to write some general bad dialogue that gets the point across and then revisit it later. General stuff like that and the characters personalities gives me enough structure to wing it.Ī winging I like doing cause knowing myself game development might get stuck because I can't write a satisfying dialogue of the events happening at the moment. But I like to think I know the general structure of my story, thief robs bank, guard catches her, guard and thief forced to work to escape together but dislike each other for obvious reasons etc. Going gung ho and all that.Īfterwards I copy the dialogue I written for the different events, put it up in word like a standard dialogue, Andreas: 'you're dumb' Lina: 'No u' like that and then I rewrite the parts I'm not satisfied with and put it into the game proper afterwards. While I'm just building the general stuff I pretty much wing the dialogue as long it goes together with the story im making and the characters personalities.
