♦ 08.11.2023 ♦

Hello everyone! :)

I hope that you're having a good day. Mine was really productive and I (finally) had a night off so I thought, "Why not update people on some of what I've been doing?" Because, there's a lot.

I'll keep this short, let's get to the stuff that matters.

♦ Progress ♦

Prologue Word Count: 120,087 (currently, I'll return to writing after posting this)

Episode One Word Count: 46,055 (see above)

♦ Changes & Updates ♦

Hells, there's a lot of these. Okay...

Changed timeline. The game now starts on Friday, June 13th (a couple days before Tommy leaves for summer camp...)

Added several scenes (most of which are optional) and more choices to the original prologue

Added a skip feature to the beginning of the game (see image below cut)

Made it easier to change character genders at the beginning of the game (see below the cut)

Started switching direct D&D references to Mythmaker and worked on writing some of the rulebook for that (see this poll for context)

And a lot more. I honestly can't even think to list it all (and you'll see the rest of it soon enough)

♦ Goals ♦

HOPEFULLY, release the updated prologue and first scene of episode one by the end of 2023

HOPEFULLY, release the next update within the first quarter of 2024 (we'll see where we go from there)

Continuing writing, in general

Begin streaming again, as early as this long weekend (Nov. 10th-12th)

PLAY ZORLOK | CAST | FAQ | NAV | PLAYLIST | DISCORD | AUTHOR | KO-FI

More new features, changes, and previews under the cut. [Beware of minor spoilers]

Prologue skip feature:

Cast gender confirmation screen:

Players can now go back and forth between text blurbs in these screens, that way you can go back to a previous phrase without having to restart the entire sequence:

The prologue now contains an optional flashback featuring a certain detective...

Tommy and Clara don't know each other as well anymore and he can now decide whether or not he's comfortable opening up to her.

Also... if you make some specific choices, Tommy can be a little bit suave now...

But don't worry if you prefer a Friends -> Rivals or Enemies -> Lovers arc, there's plenty of Jin content too...

And much, much more, but that's all I'll share for now. Hope you're having a good day/evening! :)

Tommy: “you also look like a candy land villain for oreos, if that helps.”

Z: “let’s stop talking for awhile.”

[kuru-a-roo]

I drew my Zorlok who is a little cute grubby gremlin and her noodle-y companion (that looks weird because I just suck at drawing animals)

SHE! LOVES! EVERYTHING! PINK!!! (ﾉ*ФωФ)ﾉ MAY OR MAY NOT RANDOMLY PUT STICKERS ON YOU (o゜▽゜)o☆ A chaotic mess but I guess she's Tommy's mess now? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

--- Zorlok is from @zorlok-if Some refs taken from this picrew that I used originally
