Ha, I get it.Ding Ding ding!Spoiler for Hidden:
Right now sotc is pretty much what I'm going for. The game started out as 4D botw but I scaled everything back to keep things workable.
I'm worried about how empty the game is though. I want it to be large enough to have different biomes and feel like a place that is fun to explore. 4D trees and objects are cool but most areas would just be big and only interesting from a distance.
Sotc worked because it never expected the player to go off script and explore on their own.
