🎯 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"

---
