For the second half of creating this game, I focused more on incorporating more menus so the choices have more impact on the story, what the player experiences and what they see. This was done with if/else statements and depending on choices from the first half of the story, the choices and dialogue later on changes accordingly. In addition to this, when a choice is chosen, it was looped back to the menu so that the player could choose the other options afterwards. In the screencaps above, Danny has the option to check on the cat, but only if the player picks all the options to keep it overnight. If not, then she has the option to check her phone instead of the cat if the player’s choices does not result in keeping the cat. Finally, the other feature of the mechanic was that if the player chose one option and was still able to do the others, the menu would be presented again, that way they could explore more and branch out into multiple routes.
