Revise name entry sequence to appear later into the introductory puzzle

whymog opened this issue · comments

Per our discussion, we'd like to move the name-entry sequence to later on in the puzzle. The reasons for this include:

  • Entering a name as your very first action gives you zero context about who the player is, but they will be inhabiting a very clear role (young woman, ~16 years old)
  • Choosing from a list of names denies people the fun of coming up with their own

We've talked about adding a mandatory sequence where, after getting the lighter, the player looks in the mirror and sees (rough draft idea):

the familiar face of a sixteen-year-old girl staring back at me. A little worse for wear, sure, but it was still me.

We added this in today as part of #24.
