BABELOMANIA - Here Comes The Bride
Added 2024-11-20 13:00:15 +0000 UTCThe most common reaction to the BABELOMANIA Demo has been "OMGTABITHA!". I get it.
Another if more subtle reaction was wondering: "Where's the Bride?" Indeed, since the game starts at a wedding reception, we had a lot of focus on the groom, we controlled Shigeo, met other invitees and even late comers... But not a peek of Delphine, the bride.
Well, that was kinda on purpose and kinda accidental because the character of Delphine went through a few transformations concept wise as we developed BABELOMANIA for the Spooktober Jam. Also because the time and resources were limited we had to choose who would make it in.
After the Jam, once I zeroed in on what I wanted Delphine to be, I realized we could do something very interesting... If you've played the original Resident Evil games, you may remember that they featured a Two Parts narrative. For example, in Resident Evil 2, you had to complete the game with both Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield, in whatever order you preferred, to actually finish it.
BABELOMANIA will be similar if paced and structured more organically: it will have two intertwining stories, one where you will control Shigeo and another where you will control Delphine. To get the 'True Ending' you will need to complete both, as only together will their collective experience shine light on the truth behind the horrors happening at Chateau Du Bois...
