Yes, the actual pacing is up to you. This is probably the absolute most basic way to insert story into your game. Ideally you would set up the story to be represented through gameplay. I get at that from the son coming out at the end, but that's about it.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? For time-to-time I'm looking for articles about story telling in games and thus far this is the best.

You are an interesting man, I have to say. Your insight into "players mind" is really amazing, if you did all of this, that is. I'd be honored if you could contact me, I have a couple of questions, so if you wouldn't be bothered by those, send me an message. Thanks

One small thing that is wrong with this story is that the father is a caterpillar therefore not really an "adult"

Very good but the pacing in this example game was bad. I don't want to play a game where you have a cutscene pausing your game every once in a while.

Regardless, I see what you mean.
