Technicly, we haven't had to delay the next update because we never promised a launch date, until now! I can't wait to dissapoint everyone. In seriousness, I didn't think it would take us this long and it feels like it has been delayed.

It's all over but the crying coding.

The update should be out by January. We are estimating to be done coding on January 15th.

Last update, I said that the writing was done. That was true but then I wrote more. Two thousand more words just to put a little bow on the whole thing. I decided that the plain number on the update graphic just wouldn't do. So, I stole this from shutterstock and butchered it to fit my feelings. 

Thinking about the amount of time that we have put into chapter two and the amount of time that chapter 3 might take; how up to chapter 2 might be the last completely free update; and chapter two is the full experience of what I would want to put in a demo, I wanted put more of a wrap up and thank you in it.

I remember thinking that the pathing was complicated in chapter one.

hahahahaha

There are just three questions that can show ten lines of missable dialogue.

I HAVE CREATED ROUTES UPON ROUTES. PLANS WITHIN PLANS. SECRETS FOR ONLY THE MOST VILE TO FIND.

I wrote that yesterday but it feels like a bit of an exaggeration. There are two main paths and a lot of people to talk to and learn about in a party game.

Now, the editor is going through the draft and to the best of my estimation, they can get coded into the game about 3k words of story at a time. There are roughly 20k~ words of story left to code.

I've been learning what the coder needs and tagging in image assets. As we keep working on it, I hope we can go faster. I don't want it to be eight weeks until the update.

There are several improvements to the character models. I messed with the Gran's model, a complaint I had in an earlier update. The hair, shirt, and awkward posing were really dragging on my impressions. But, it isn't exactly broke, so if I run out of other things to work on, I'll go back and redo the old models.

Then there is kusi. I have don't nothing to kusi. I thought the newer renders I did of him looked better but then again, I stare at these models for so long that I forget what people look like. I don't know how I made his lips so blue.

So, we'll be bumping through our eight coding sessions. Think of it like  we have done three out of eleven (3 /11). The projected completion time is Jan 17th.
