Summary0009528: Wheelbarrow to aid / explain greater inventory on overworld.
DescriptionIn the 2nd story panel, as described 9/7/2012, Mary and Lela have a wheelbarrow to transport several bottles of water. What if we create a vehicle called "Wheelbarrow" that the parents always use to transport everything they're finding? Not only does this explain the ability to have a larger overworld inventory, but it also helps explain where those items are while the player is exploring a portal.

Well, bear in mind that these bottles of water are giant jugs in the cutscene, whereas the normal bottles they carry around are just little jars to hold in a hand. I don't know, I think that the inventory thing is kind of a usual suspension of disbelief thing with games, and that we'd be opening a can of wrms by drawing attention to it more. ;)

Too true, the player might then say, "Well can't I just take *this* item with me?" If Link doesn't need a means for transporting his gear, neither do Darrell and Mary. :)
