Originally, the idea was that the game would work something like travel through Zelazny's Amber: by navigating in directions, you'd change variables that would determine the world, phasing stuff into existence around certain loci. This quickly got abandoned as too experimental to adequately test in the allotted time.

The idea is preserved, sort of, in the distribution of the rooms: the idea was that the east-west active would run from activity to inactivity, and the north-south one from emotionally intense to cool. This is preserved a *little* - the top-right cluster are all kind of crazy in the same way, and the bottom-left similarly washed-out, but I'm not sure that it's an obvious arrangement, and it doesn't hold up in all its particulars.]
