“Logical” items can be picked up and used as weapons. I just flashed on trying to use a Teapot for a weapon, LOL. Yeah, weapons ammo could be replace at a LOGICAL location obviously a gun store would have weapons and ammo. BUT remember everything is ONE USE if you waste ammo you had better have a new weapon handy. A 2×4 would be great, the crowbar in your trunk congrats. Just remember not to run away without something in your hands. I would definitely recommend the slurpy at the quickie mart, remember to thank Apu.

The Vines would be mind controlling “spore” factories that would be what control the people. They would of course defend themselves if attacked directly, whip like activity. But it would be a cooperative effect, that’s why you would slowly allow people to recover in your area as you kill the vines. As the people recover they would be able to help you. Releasing more areas of the game to you as they recover.

Yeah, cause/effect isn’t something that most games have. That’s what would be a big ‘KEYSTONE’ of this game. I actually was thinking of keeping in-game knowledge so that the player doesn’t get too much knowledge just enough to keep going and keep the suspense high. I don’t want the player to know what’s coming next and be able to ‘PREPARE’ for it. That’s the main point of the game. The game is intended to be EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. It’s got elements of PUZZLES, SUSPENSE, and I would hope a RANDOM ability that would allow for maximum replay ability without ever handling a situation in the same way. Setting up a game like this just leaves people with more questions than answers and if your like me would draw you into the game looking for more and more options trying to find anything that I missed.

No, the “WEEDS” on the surface would be just the beginning. The main question would be “How do the weeds control people?” “Where did they come from?” “What are the doing?” “Why here, why NOW?”

Second, I get exactly what your talking about but as a game like this would almost have to have multiple ways to do the same task. IE: Want to get into the small town hunting store, but shot the attendant in the head earlier, well, what about driving a truck threw the store window.

Basically you would have to make pretty much everything a destructible environment just to make most of this game possible. With it being so open ended in how to do things, just killing one guy could toss the entire thing into chaos like you said. But that’s the point of the game Cause/Effect. LOL.
