 === Backpacks ===
-Each character has a backpack that holds 10 items until I pick a better quantity.
+Each character has a [[backpack|Backpack]] that holds 10 items until I pick a better quantity.\\
+If I end up doing more than that, I might also just use the stardew valley tab thing where you switch backpack levels and the numbers stay the same.\\

 === The Race ===
+The main conceit of the game is a combination of click and point adventure and a race.\\
+Whichever character the player chooses will be timed to travel from her home at 2:00 am, the moment of impact, to the crash site on the other side of the map. \\
+\\
+Her choices can create or remove delays for herself or the other two characters, who are also heading to the point of impact. \\
+\\
+No earlier than 5:00 pm and no later than 7:00 pm, one of other characters will reach the crash site. The time it takes the other depends on what the player does.
+\\
+The timing hierarchy is that:\\
+If the player chooses Pinkie and does nothing, Louise will reach the crash site first.\\
+If the player chooses Louise and does nothing, Daria will reach the crash site first.\\
+If the player chooses Daria and does nothing, Pinkie will reach the crash site first.\\
+The player has multiple actions that will create changes in the other two characters' timelines, but none of the characters can be delayed to reach after 7:00.
