Making the Games: Shadow Force Design Document - Chapter 2 (November 26, 2008)

[Bandit LOAF]

This is the first of three 'chapters' of separate Shadow Force Design documents. It seems to have been written to explain the game to people above the development team - exactly how it would be played, why it would be fun... and, in this particular case, what kind of online interaction would be formed around it. The "Gas Giants" faux-dialogue is kind of corny, but - well, it's a nice dream, Vaquero.

Thanks to Captain Johnny for both archiving and providing this material! The series is winding down, though, so if you're a former Wing Commander developer with a story to tell or a document to share, we'd love to hear from you.

Yes, the story at the beginning really is corny .

On the other hand, the communication and branching idead sound really awesome! And the extras are cool too: I'd love to hear about Kilrathi cuisine!
