Once Upon a Time...

there was a philosophy game in the making. Here is the story of that game(thus far(subject to change))

The Story

A humanoid (whose gender is currently unknown, but will be referred to as a he for now, to keep it simple) is ambling around in the mountains with his pet dog. Without warning the dog runs farther into the mountains. The humanoid follows his dog up the mountains and into a creepy temple that seemingly just appeared. The humanoid steps into the temple and does not see his dog, he does however see several ghosts arguing. The ghosts resemble philosophers which is fitting because they are arguing about philosophy. Each of the philosophers believes the fate of the world is in trouble, what they cannot agree on is which of their philosophies will save everyone. The humanoid is mystified by the temple and the arguments of the philosophers, they all spoke so convincingly. The humanoid wanted to learn more about their philosophies, but the philosopher ghosts stopped talking. They noticed the humanoid and demanded to know which of them he believed to be correct. The humanoid chooses to follow one of the philosophies and the ghost that advocates for that philosophy gives the humanoid a quest. The ghost tells the humanoid to spread the word about the philosophy and get other people excited about philosophy. Then they arrive at a problem. The humanoid does not know very much about the philosophy and the ghost cannot leave the temple. After some thought, the ghost realizes he can jump into the body of the humanoid's dog. They search the temple to find the dog and afterwards set forth on their quest.


Presumably after this more things will happen. This bit of the story is enough to get through the tutorial and the first level. I want the story to shape the levels, but I also think what I need from the levels will become clear after I finish the first one. That being said, more parts of the story as time goes. 

Also I will probably pick up with the lenses again next week.
