Using Fear as a Narrative Device
78Probably should have saved this one for Halloween but IT’S SPOOKY TIME! Sort of. We’re going to talk about making a threat in your game (or story) actually scary. Does that mean just making it gross looking, large, or deadly? Or is it something else?
HMMMMMMMMM.
This idea came from a game that @TalesFromElsewhereGames ran for us a good while back.
And now that he's got his video out about the same thing, I can post the link here!
