Downtown Is Coming Back to Life

Hey guys,

We’ve been continuing the rework of Downtown, and one of our main goals is to make locations feel less like static backgrounds and more like places where things are actually happening.

We’re adding more environmental activity, characters around the area, and most importantly, new interaction points.

In the new version, some characters you see around Downtown are not simply background NPCs. They can be waiting for Max at specific locations, and clicking on them can directly start a new interaction or scene.

The images above show a comparison between the older Downtown setup and the updated version around Le Homard Bleu.

This same approach is being applied to other parts of Downtown as we continue expanding the soft paths, adding new locations, interactions, and remaking older content.

More soon.
