I love that you talk that while you talk about considering each step, the footsteps make each step feel meaningful to the player. I also like how walking in older footsteps doesn't trigger new dialogue - reminds me of trying to walk in my old footsteps, so to not disturb the snow.
How do you do that? How do you do that in each step a footstep prints on the snow? Also, the final is random depending on where you walk. I have a lot of curiosity about how do you do it. Do you need to know how to programm to do it?
I did the footstep path by creating a background layer of footprint tiles, then covering it with a bunch of blank items. then each time you pick up the item, it uncovers the footprint tile beneath it.
for the random ending, I used the dialog of the item. it has a certain number of text options in a sequence, and the last one includes an exit-from-script command. so no special programming required outside of using bitsy's dialog tools.

hi - that's a great question!

'Bitsy' community is intriguing. It seems to pioneer a genuine genre: the digital poetry.
