I really like to previz all the major UI screens of a game early on to 'play-act' what functionality I need, before working in-engine.

She's young enough that she'd forgotten most of the plot from when Chris played and is swearing it's the best game she's ever played or seen. I don't blame her in the least. Phenomenal game. Thanks @kanaratron.bsky.social !
