Hey everyone!
I've finally finished a release! Errr… Or part of one… ‘O.o At least I get to share a true ending (#2) that is one of my personal favorites. Hopefully that makes up for ending the Evan line mid stream. I have a lot coming there and will include some of the other pieces in the next update but I apologize in advance for that cut and run - it’s just a tease of a large block of content I am nearly finished similar to the Drew stuff.
Sorry this one took so long but I had a few minor disasters and wasn’t happy with some of the connecting scenes I wrote. Several areas were also more disconnected than I anticipated.
In other news I bought some new photoshop software and got distracted with that for a bit, but I did manage to cleanup and edit a fair bit of media including a lot of upcoming content (about 500 images) plus about a third of the images in the game. Many distracting watermarks have been removed! The overall image quality has been improved in some areas as well.
As I get near several endings it became apparent how many little extra details I glossed over in my mind. I want the late game to have a lot of impactful decisions so that takes a lot of planning, and adaptation to reconcile what’s in my head with what’s already written. This update took me far longer than average since I am working on so many routes and I’ve been really busy with other work and flooding and other “goodness”. Plus when I get around to working on the game the past couple weeks I have been picking fun stories instead of “the boring stuff that needs to be done to release something”. It’s progress just not progress in order. I’m sorry for doing this but it’s the best way I know of to try and keep my mojo up. Working a lot does sap some of the creative spirit but ending #2 felt pretty good.
Let me know what you think, good or Illmaren. :P
Among other cosmetic updates I finally converted the links to buttons on the main page. I might shrink or reposition the patreon sidebar button because I don’t want it to be obnoxious or immersion breaking. If anyone finds the current iteration to be annoying or overly distracting let me know. Originally I had the blue hyperlink that I made into a big orange button but it looked so ugly and distracting I could not rest until I made it look not ugly.
Like usual I only finished a small portion of everything I started but I think this update turned out okay.
I am still a bit behind with some “Directory stuff,” so I will probably do another special director stand alone update next month.
Anyway, I am gone for a few days but I should have some free time to write so I will update everyone in the first part of next month. There are still several stories I am close to finishing, so the next update should be a much shorter wait.
Thanks for being awesome everyone!
P.S. Since I did so many edits, I recommend downloading the full version if you care about minor quality improvements.
