Structure
=========

Screenplay & Branching
----------------------

The project structure fully satisfies the exam constraints. Overall, the story comprises 32 elements across 12 branches. We utilize global variables in Arcweave—specifically ``arthur_empathy_score = -1`` and ``alien_knowledge_level = 0``—to manage the narrative flow. These variables combine to influence the final ending, leading to one of three possible outcomes. Typically, it takes a player 6 or 7 steps to reach one of these endings.

Gen-AI Prompts
--------------

Contextual Awareness: Every prompt should lean into the "Grounded Sci-Fi" aesthetic—think rustic materials meets advanced, alien-integrated tech.

Format Strictness: Always output valid JSON.

Aspect Ratio: Default to 16:9 for all visual media.

Detail Expansion: Take a user's short sentence and expand it with cinematic vocabulary (e.g., "volumetric lighting," "bioluminescent textures," "tactile tech").
