Into the Crowd
The streets have people that react and run away from danger.
What: A city needs people in it. In the clip, one player jogs past a crowded street corner with their gun holstered while the other waits down the street. NPCs step around whoever they can see or hear coming, and anyone the player brushes past from behind looks back over their shoulder. Then both players draw, and one fires. The whole crowd startles at once, stepping back and turning toward the shot. A beat later they run, the closer ones generally first, away from the shooter and toward cover where they can find it. At first the crowd clumped, slid along the ground, and ran like everyone needed the bathroom. On the left of the clip, a few people never move at all, and some break late and jam up behind each other. There's still work to do, but this is where we're at so far!
Why: Fights in NULLWEAVER happen on city streets. A crowd that ignores a gunfight breaks the scene straight away.
