A check-in post


First of all, I wanted to give an apology for such a long wait for the next update. I've been meaning to make a post that could update everyone on this (but then I kept beating myself up LOL). There's a bit of work still left to do for the sprites (exporting all the sprite expressions and coding them in) and but I'm really hoping I can at least get an update in time for Christmas though.

Some more news; I hyped myself up for NaNoWriMo in November and tried to use it as an opportunity to write more for VD,  I got maybe about 5k in, not as much as planned, but that brought the total script size up to 51,000 words! Right now I feel like the story is at a midway point and I can finish it up with another 50k or more words. (Maybe like, 120k in total?) For the past few months I've been running out of ideas since I've written up to the unfinished outline I made!😩 I recently discovered mind mapping though and it's been VERY COOL for my thought process, so I have been coming up with some new ideas to get to where the story needs to go. (I have that issue where I know how I want the mystery to come together but struggle to get the scenes leading up to that. )

So I guess some bad news? I'd love to make more frequent updates, and I feel bad that the updates are really short too, but I think after this next update, I want to just devote myself to writing the rest of the story. I've realized I struggle SO much when I have to shift my focus over from writing, art, and programming, and real life getting in the way, and then try to do that over and over again a few times in a year. (Which, I ended up with only 3 updates so OOF.) Which kinda sucks, but a finished VN is much better than rushing myself to make updates and then burning myself out. I am, though, very excited to get more in depth in this VN and I really can't wait to get it all together properly.

Thanks again for everyone who plays this and keeps up with this VN! The project has hit 420 followers on here which is WILD and I'm so appreciative of that! Thanks and hope to get something out soon! ✌
