Writing Diary #2
Added 2024-02-12 22:54:37 +0000 UTCIn writing a mystery in an IF context is interesting because sometimes certain information that you would love for the readers to get is based on choices they make. Given this they might miss some interesting facts about the whole mystery at the centre of the game.
Oftentimes I have to stop myself from later on adding that information in a piece of dialogue as it’s not fair to those who do pick the correct options. Ultimately the story will go where it goes so I shouldn’t feel like everyone needs to find everything because all will be revealed eventually.
Right now I’ve been writing the things that come after the end of the demo (obviously). It’s going quicker than my writing progress has been for the past month in a half because of the side quests. The second part of the three parts of episode is interesting because it includes something I don’t know if I’ll keep.
It’s also something that I don’t see much in IF happening. I’ll mention it closer to the drop date but it is of sexual nature – not too extreme but a first taste of the more mature sexual content the story is said to have. Sexual content from my writing to be read by other people is also something very interesting that I haven’t sat down and thought of how I feel about it yet.
Sincerely, the Writer
