Progress Update: Pushing past Chapter 16 (Patreon)
Content
Dear Supporters!
I hope this message finds you well. Today, I am happy to share a substantial progress update on Chapters 14, 15, and 16.
As you all are aware, recently life threw us a curveball or two, but despite that our work has not only continued but yielded some exciting things.
Here's a snapshot of what we've achieved so far:
- 3 new Chapters, 30 000 words each, adding substantial meat to the story and amounting to roughly six hours of new content.
- 20 new, richly decorated set pieces made specifically to support new plot and increase immersion.
- 15 new characters, fully supported by interactive spritework.
- Over 10 000 lines of code have already been completed, including the backbone integration.
Here's what's in the works for the final polish:
- Roughly 10 000 lines of code remaining.
- 2 meticulously crafted illustrations are underway to augment pivotal scenes - including a much-anticipated bedroom scene. A little hint for the curious ones about the first-person perspective - the large, darkened window in the night version of the bedchamber is there for a compelling reason.
Leaving on this exciting note, and not wanting to keep you in suspense any longer; here are the new links to the most current build in the works at the moment. Bear in mind this is still a WiP.
The final versions will require a few additional weeks to polish and perfect. This will allow us to further enrich the visual novel, which will now be nearly double its original size. I am honestly surprised and thrilled at the volume of content that has been generated despite the hurdles in our path.
I appreciate your understanding and continued support during this difficult time. Your patience is invaluable, and I am eager to share the fruits of this labour with all of you!
As always, your feedback is much welcomed. Feel free to share your thoughts on the latest build.
Thank you for being a part of this journey. Without your unwavering support and faith, none of this would be possible.
Regards,
~Kael
