Final story mindmap + content warning slide

After receiving feedback from my classmates I decided to have this whole story be a dream in a way. As the player was actually already dead, not actually being able to change the past. Additionally I have added a warning to the beginning of my game as my story does touch on multiple sensitive topics.

I wanted my interactive story to focus on the plot of the story rather than having it have multiple paths as it would allow players to be more invested into the storyline and the characters feelings of stress and anxiety. Below is just my mindmap I have followed while making the written part of my game with some tweaks where I felt were necessary but the this mindmap really aided in the flow of my story and the structure of it all. Allowing my to put idea in sticky note to add into my written part of the story.

If you’ve lost your way in the IFStravaganza, you can always go back to the beginning.

    There is a crazy amount of detail to be explored in this story, and through reading your mindmap a little bit, I love the fact that you get to sorta re-live your life, but in the end realize that nothing you do can really change the future, and you just really have accepted the present it as it is. My story is similar where there really is one ending provided that it is still an interactive story, I like your aspect of telling the story and incorporating a lesson in it as well. Additionally, The plotline can be very dark for some people, so I like the idea of adding in the viewers discretion page there!
