Project Jellico's gameplay was broken in a number of different encounters. Most of these encounters were combat based. The player would arrive at a location, have a short dialogue scene play where they decided the positioning of their ships. Combat was turned based, with the player moving  and attacking with their own ships before the enemy force did the same. The rest of the encounters were dialogue based, where the player would meet up with the rest of the friendly ships in the system to get new orders. During this time the player could also talk to their crew to get their input on what was going on so far. 

Project Jellico's narrative is relatively simple, with the player being given a string of tasks to complete. However, I used the dialogue to expand upon the base narrative. Characters are given time to bounce off each other and expand on some of the worlds ideas and themes.

I also use dialogue to allow the player to make decisions about upcoming battles, this main effects the starting position of their ships. This is framed to give the player the feeling that they are a real starship captain giving out commands to their subordinates.

My writing in this project is somewhat "jargon heavy" with mentions of different mechanics specific to the game's world. This has the draw back of making some writing a little hard to follow, but it does make the dialogue slightly more immersive as characters talk to the player as if they are a member of the crew, rather than a player playing the game.
