I'd love to know which of Lynch's works each of you is planing to take inspiration from in your contribution to the jam!

I'm drawing on all of them to some extent for the fine details, but the main theme of the game is ambiguous identity and I was mostly thinking of the sudden character changes in Mulholland Drive and Lost Highway when I came up with the idea.

I’m gonna take time to watch a film of his, probably Blue Velvet, and hope I can get something done in time!

I've been watching his movies in anticipation of the jam and will probably end up taking inspiration from bits of all of them and Twin Peaks. But the thing that I'm probably taking the most inspiration from is a passage from his book Catching the Big Fish:

"I used to go to Bob's Big Boy restaurant just about every day from the mid-seventies until the early eighties. I'd have a milk shake and sit and think. 

There's a safety in thinking in a diner. You can have your coffee or your milk shake, and you can go off into strange dark areas, and always come back to the safety of the diner."

My primary inspiration was Blue Velvet, but I didn't work fast enough so I mostly just got the surface level Americana and none of the subversion, lmao

Time for a second draft!
