Early preview of our dialogue system

We're enhancing Box Critters with a dialogue system that deepens lore and character interactions, prioritizing story and character development.

The team has been busy working on our new dialogue system. We believe that story is key to Box Critters, and having conversations with the characters in the world unlocks more depth. When building a world, it's important to create lore—the stories behind everything you encounter. As a team, we're focused on developing lore and characters, not just plot. The Extra Credits video that was influential for the Club Penguin team does an excellent job of describing the three pillars of game storytelling.

A couple of features we are working on to deepen the world:

  • Description text for all items and monsters

  • Mouse over text to learn more about the environment
