Happy May! This month is going to be a busy one.
Game Updates
I am pushing to finish Chapter 1 by the end of the month (probably not all the coding, but hopefully all the writing). There are a lot of moving parts and sections and some are more branching than others, but I am hopeful that I can complete it.
The next section, which is the Route B version of visiting the Cove, is almost complete. It’s currently sitting at around 9000 words. I have a couple bookend scenes to finish and also a tweaked version of the MC’s shopping trip. Once it is edited and coded, I am planning on adding it to the alpha build alongside some bug fixes and other edits.
After that, I still need to finish the following sections:
- Route B version of Edgewater
- Visiting the Guild in Deadwood
- Putting all the clues together and the MC/player figuring out where the chalice is
- The MC going to the correct place and finding the chalice and the circumstances around that / deciding what to do with the chalice once found
- The MC failing to find the chalice
- Connect both instances of the above to the Count boss fight (there is one choice where you can avoid it entirely)
- Zenaida’s Route B entrance / forcing the MC to accept the Velantis contract
For those who have access to the alpha build, I discovered a small bug (?) when flipping back and forth between the alpha build and the public build. Because the game name is the same in both files, your browser will identify the alpha build and the public build as the same game and they will share autosaves. If you happen to be flipping between both versions and are relying on browser saves, I recommend playing one version in one browser and the other in a different browser.
Patreon Updates
I am still working on a solution to the bug with Patreon and itch.io integration for the alpha build access. If you are a new Patron and can’t get your access key, please message me and I will send you a manual one!
The Follower tier is currently unpublished while I figure out some behind-the-scenes stuff. This is just to ensure no one else joins at that tier level until I can make a decision on whether I am keeping it or not.
I have added a new benefit to the Apprentice tier and up. You can now vote on bonus content topics each month! Each month I will have a list of different topics I’m interested in writing, and the vote will determine which ones I cover.
The all-access bonus content piece for this month will be a Mel short story.
As of today, I am changing the weekly updates to a bi-weekly update. I will still post updates on Mondays (and bonus content on Thursdays), but the updates will be twice a month rather than once a week.
Thank you for your support! Have a great week! ❤
