Subtleties of INSIDE
summary
Close looks at INSIDE reveal concrete systems: breath as additive poses driven by audio so inhale/exhale sync with actions; one-button hold-to-grab mapping that keeps grabs until release and uses short timers for taps; look‑at spine/head blending to guide attention; a 200 ms responsiveness target from Game Feel to preserve perceived control; fake‑physics solutions — a swaying fern and an invisible rigid body behind a valve — that add believable motion without full simulation; auto‑finish at ~80% pull and omnidirectional underwater grabs, all tuned to feel continuous.
