But I (friendly) disagree with what you just said. I don't think multiple endings are enough to turn a text adventure into a real game, it's much more complicated than that. In fact...real game features aren't necessary to make a &quot;real game&quot;, I think the only important thing is that the player FEEL it is a game, even if it's not. Never Alone Hotline for exemple felt like a game, because the player could invent his own wining and losing conditions, even if there was only one ending. This one doesn't feel like a game, because the player quickly feel I want to lead him somewhere. Moreover, because he can see Amy's thoughts, he doesn't even have the freedom to think by himself. This thoughts might be an interesting narrative item, but there are AWFUL game design items.  To turn Ok...Now this is akward into a game, I should had rethink everything, I should had try to trick the player to make him feel he's actually playing, even if he's not. \r<br\/>(I talk about it in my post mortem : http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/2012\/04\/26\/ok-now-this-is-akward-post-mortem-timelapse\/\r<br\/>\r<br\/>But after all, this is good : I've tried new things, and I learnt from them.

I might have not expressed myself, but when I mentioned &quot;multiple endings&quot; I was actually thinking of Alone Hotline: Even though there is only &quot;one ending&quot;, you could consider each mini dialogue in that game as a different &quot;mini game&quot;, and because your choices would affect the ending of each mini game, in a sense that game had &quot;multiple endings&quot;.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I more or less considered this game to be about the same as one of the &quot;mini games&quot; in Alone Hotline, so that is why I ended up talking about &quot;multiple endings&quot; :-), cheers!"},{"author_name":"caranha","author_uid":"7847","time":"Apr 27, 2012 @ 12:09am","epoch":1335485040,"text":"Sorry, not in the post mortem, your &quot;real game&quot; comment came from one of your replies above.
