Episode 1:Whipping Turnabouts wrote:Welcome to the release of Episode 1: Whipping Turnabouts. The third completed PWLib game and the first to publicly have working investigation(s) (in PWLib). I have to thank you for waiting in these three months. Allow me to say that the most I expect from this episode is a "good enough." What I expect from this episode is to bring the potential of a wondrous story. If it is "epic" on its own as compared to many great fangames, I only have you to thank.

You may not like this Episode, and that is fine. You may love this Episode, and I truly appreciate for you playing it. To those who have doubted me in how I will execute such concepts, here is the first answer to your questions. It may leave you with more questions, but remember, a story is a story, focus on the subtle details and think how it will work with the big picture. To those who have supported me, again, your advice and motivation has helped me in building this Episode.
This Episode is an attempt in breaking "typical" boundaries or limitations that the game or the person, him or herself would do in creating a fangame. As to what they are, play the game . I hope (like many others before me), I inspire others in making a story and produce their own "game."
Episode 1 is very simplistic in nature, especially the "case" itself. It is meant to be. To be honest, it is more difficult in keeping it simple than over-the-top (and intricate). It's an intention, but for what reason? I said it before, it's for a certain literary effect that Ping mentioned as well as many others in other topics. The nature of the game is to think about the subtle details. They are a huge determining factor of the amount of "story" you will receive. You may be satisfied of what's blatantly given, but you may not realize the intricate backgrounds (characterizations, etc.) that are presented. One day, I'll give you the details; ask the questions, and I'll answer them, eventually. Also, this Episode does not do the usual/typical "The name's Apollo Justice, I am a defense attorney," or "That's Trucy Wright, Mr. Wright's step-daughter, and heir to the Gramarye magic;" it's under the assumption that you know the background of the characters.
