More about this game
Until It’s On Your Doorstep is an interactive story where you guide two characters, Owen and Lisa, through eight chapters of personal growth. The core loop involves reading narrative beats and selecting responses that shape their journeys. Each choice awards points in Resilience and Empathy. The difficulty lies in balancing these two meters; you need at least 10 points in both, and they must be within 6 points of each other to unlock the best ending. The run ends after the eighth chapter.
Tips
- Pay attention to the Resilience and Empathy points shown on each choice to keep your meters balanced.
- Aim for at least 10 points in both Resilience and Empathy to reach the best ending.
- Keep the difference between your Resilience and Empathy meters to 6 points or less.
