Detailed Weekly Update - May 18, 2024
Added 2024-05-18 19:08:50 +0000 UTCNew update. Not too interesting though, as I had to rewrite a part and fight with my own ideas on and on. I’m struggling with Dylan’s relationship event, as I want to make him vulnerable, but I don’t want it to feel like it’s happening out of nowhere. And, due to the random events and all, I don’t know if it’s unnatural for it to happen or not so early. I guess I’ll just have to finish it and let you guys test it so I can get a feel from you as well.
In real terms, the word count of the chapter increased by around 3k words, but if I’d have to count the rewritten words for Dylan’s event, I’d also have an extra 2 to 3k words on top. I've written a complete random event where our MC bumps into Isaac and Haley at the Grand Brew, where you can attempt to prank that son of a biscuit.
Exact word count for chapter 4 - 41,865.
Exact things I've written for chapter 4:
Finished Isaac/Haley random event
Advanced pretty far down Dylan's first relationship event
The early access demo has been pretty successful in helping me figure out that there were some issues with the weekly system I’ve created, so I’ve made it more clear now. There’s also an issue with how Vivian is acting in the finance recruitment event if you’ve already met her “real” personality during the homecoming party, so I’ve got to work on that in the near future.
You can play the new random event and see how the new week screens look like in the early access demo!
Thanks for all of the support! We’re getting close to the public release of the unfinished chapter and I hope it will help me make the story better and better! I’m also going to start working on a side story this week, so any suggestions would be appreciated!
