🎯 KEY CONCEPTS ESTABLISHED

1. MEMORY vs REALITY (Ana)

Original Ana (Memory/Flashbacks):

  • Purple/lavender skin
  • Pure magenta hair (no green)
  • Cute, slightly spoiled child
  • Usage: Intro flashbacks, blur-to-clear memories, dreams
  • Narrative: How Kai remembers his "little sister"

Nova Twin Ana (Reality/Game):

  • SAME skin tone as Kai
  • Pink AND green dreadlocks (matching Kai!)
  • RED EYES (matching Kai!)
  • TRUE TWIN DNA
  • Usage: Main game when Ana is found
  • Narrative: Who Ana BECAME - transformed survivor

"Aha!" Moment:

Intro shows purple cute Ana → Game reveals pink/green punk Ana → Recognition: "Those eyes... IT'S HER!"


2. GENERATIONAL AGING SYSTEM

3 Life Stages for Each Character:

Kai:

  • Young (25) - Current, green/pink dreads, all piercings
  • Adult (35) - Beard, tied dreads, more tattoos, muscular
  • Elder (50+) - Grey dreads, full beard, punk grandpa, WISDOM NOT WEAKNESS

Ana (Twin Version):

  • Young - Prisoner jumpsuit, pink/green dreads, RED EYES
  • Adult (35) - Scientist in lab coat, tattoos, fierce
  • Elder (60+) - Mentor, grey streaks, tablets, The Clash

Critical Rules:

  • Piercings NEVER removed (identity!)
  • Dreadlocks evolve (color changes, length, style) but NEVER disappear
  • RED EYES permanent (family DNA)
  • Punk attitude maintained across all ages

3. GHOST QUEST SYSTEM

Parents Return as Neon Spirits:

Ghost Otac (Cyan):

  • 50% transparent with NEON CYAN outline
  • VHS scanline glitch effect
  • Still holding longboard (ghostly)
  • Sad but peaceful

Ghost Mati (Magenta):

  • 50% transparent with NEON MAGENTA outline
  • VHS scanline glitch effect
  • Holding flowers (ghostly)
  • The Clash shirt visible through transparency

Quest Mechanics:

  • Appears ONLY after Ana rescued
  • Don't speak much, just float toward death location
  • Player follows to discover truth about virus/zombie attack
  • Haptic: Xbox controller gentle pulse (comfort, not fear)

4. FAMILY DNA SYSTEM

RED EYES = Family Genetic Connection:

  • Father (Otac) - RED EYES
  • Mother (Mati) - RED EYES
  • Kai - RED EYES (inherited)
  • Ana - Different (purple skin in memory, different DNA origin?)

Punk Transformation:

  • Kai gets first dreadlocks at age ~8-10
  • Parents watch proudly (family bonding)
  • ALL THREE have RED EYES during transformation
  • Shows "where Kai got his punk DNA"

5. INTRO SEQUENCE (2 VERSIONS)

Version A (60 seconds) - Cinematic:

Phase 1 (0:00-0:10): Happy Family

  • Otac longboard, Ana barbershop, birthday, etc.
  • Text: "Nekoč so bile barve resnične..."

Phase 2 (0:10-0:20): The Bond

  • Twins holding hands, DNA visible
  • Text: "Imel sem njo. Imela sva vse."

Phase 3 (0:20-0:35): The Collapse

  • Virus, zombies, chaos
  • Text: "Potem je prišel X-Noir. In svet se je zlomil."

Phase 4 (0:35-0:45): The Loss

  • Parents fading, Ana taken
  • Text: "Starša sta postala senci... Ana je izginila v temi."

Phase 5 (0:45-0:55): Passage of Time

  • AGING MONTAGE! Young → Adult → Elder Kai
  • Text: "Leta so postala megla. Obraz se je spremenil... cilj nikoli."

Phase 6 (0:55-1:00): Amnesia Wake-Up

  • Bedroom, memory flash, Gronk
  • Text: "Kdo sem? ... Kje je Ana?"

Version B (30-45 seconds) - Fast Cuts:

  • 3 phases, ADHD energy, rapid impact
  • Best for demo/testing
