|03|. Create a New Game

Storyline: In this walkthrough you will create a stripped down version of Dow Day. Here is what your end story will look like. First, your player will view a Plaque welcoming them to 1967. Then, they will meet their editor (this will be a type of game object called a Conversation) who will tell them that they should talk to some protesters. Next, they will talk to some protesters (another Conversation) who will hand them a protest flyer (this will be a game object called an Item). Finally, they will see a group of protesters marching and chanting (this will be delivered via a Plaque containing an embedded video clip).
