NPC Dialogues - Jason dos Santos


One of the many things I have been working on for Space Mail 2023 is the lore and dialogue options for some of the planet NPCs / clients. The main two in which I have been working on are a red alien hive mind that refers to "itselves" as Grubgar (it is a very low IQ hive mind, playing against the common trope of hive-minds being uber-intelligent), and a species of blue slime aliens that believe they are the top culinary critics of the galaxy (despite their sustenance entirely consisting of trash or waste products). Overall it has been very enjoyable to try and think of comedic twists and turns for these characters that all fall within a similar comedic threshold while still have unique lore or attitudes that make them stand out from just the comedic payoff the player could grow to expect while playing the game.

Attached you will find samples from the dialogue and lore being worked on for these two NPC races mentioned.
