Progress Report 2022.08.03: Back In Business

Hi friends,

Happy August! I’m back from my hiatus and getting prepped to get back to work on the game. My vacation was lovely and it was nice to have a break. I spent a lot of time with my family, did a canoe trip in Algonquin Park, and generally relaxed. I did get a little bit of writing done, but it was mostly just for fun.

I hope you all enjoyed the extra content during July! The character lore posts are now complete and I’ll be returning to my usual content schedule. This means:

• Bi-weekly progress reports for all tiers
• Weekly sneak peeks for all tiers
• One post of bonus content per month (Apprentice tier and above)

There will not be a bonus content vote this month as I still have one post left in my drafts. But I will have a special announcement for Wayfarer tier and above coming in the next couple of weeks.

Housekeeping

A few things before I get to the game progress:

• If you upgraded your pledge to Apprentice tier or above during July, please message me. I may have missed contacting you about what name to use in the credits.
• Game credits won’t be updated until the next patch
• The Wayfarer character sheet template link has been updated. If you were having issues with the link saying it was expired, it should work now. I also updated the template so there are no more locked elements (hopefully!)

August Plans

I am slowly easing back into things while I catch up on everything I missed. My main goals for the next two weeks are:

• Process bug reports and patch the game
• Continue working on Episode 3 Scene 1 and hopefully get to the end of one of the (many) Aeran branches.
• My hope is to finish a significant portion of Scene 1 by the end of the month. I’d would like to get new content added to the alpha as soon as possible.

And finally, the alpha build password has been updated for August (it can be found on the pinned post here). Just as a general reminder, the alpha contains exactly the same content as the public build until I can do an Episode 3 update. 

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. As always, thank you all so much for your support! 💕
