Part one two three or so of a raw sketches collection about story telling puzzle games.
2015-07-21 19:29:06 Before I start, here some back-links:
About linear story telling. I'm sorry. I have to add the prototype sometimes.

Where you can play the Puzzle Adventure prototype This is a match 2 single person RPG.

The game All Men Are Pigs is a match for path-finding.

Another little code talk:
you can copy this code of a combination game and this shell work.
Place these lines of code into the body element of an HTML5 document.
