The Allure of Wanton Cove progress report.

It would seem that life in general has set out to demoralize me.  That's ok though, I'm stubborn.

Last night, I was working on one of the big scenes for the next build of Wanton Cove.  Then my computer locked up and I lost about half of my work (Was saving often after screwing up the other day.)  After that, I knew I was going to have a hard time convincing myself to do much of anything, so I instead decided it was as good a time as any to do a defrag and full virus scan.  The up side of that is that my computer seems a bit faster today.  So that's a small victory at least.

Hit the ground running this morning.  I storyboarded out what I still need to write for the Night 8 scene as well as plugged the +/-500 words of content that has been rewritten into the game itself.  Also took the little bit of the new key scene and started working on that again.  finished the scene and have it saved.  Exactly 1999 words of content for the scene.  Still need to code it and get it into the game, but pretty happy with the result.

Needless to say, I'm hitting my stride again after the complete fail of a day I had on Monday.  My original intent for the week was to have the Night 8 scene and the key scene complete by today.  Unless something unexpected comes up, I should have little trouble accomplishing that and more today.  I'm preparing to sneak off for an hour or so for lunch with my wife, then I'll be wading back into this to finish up the Night 8 scene and to work through some spelling errors that were reported this last week.

With the new counting system for the work poll, Wanton Cove is our clear winner for the week.  I will be trying to add some new NPC dialogue to the game tomorrow after the other important stuff I'm working on today is all in place.  Should make for a pretty decent update next week.
