This meant I had to keep track of what the player had already seen across each loop.</p> <p>It ended up teaching me a lot about state and how branching stories can basically work like a state machine. A lot of the challenge was making sure the game remembered the right things without letting the story get too complicated.</p> <p><strong>Built with:</strong> Ren’py, Python</p> <p><a rel="external" href="https://golden-fox07.itch.io/echoes-in-red">Play it on itch.io</a> | <a rel="external" href="https://github.com/golden-fox07/Echoes-in-Red">Source</a></p>
