Progress Report November #2

In the last Progress Report, I detailed the outlining for the Pinebeach Section.

In this Progress Report, I'm happy to say we've begun the section proper.

I also realized that the Free Folk were probably absolutely confused as to what the fuck was going on because I did two update drops as if they were Progress Reports lol, so I'ma report everything I've done thus far lol

Progress Report November #1

This month is gonna be a heavy development month!

Today was outlining day for the Pinebeach section.

Though there are three "branches" you will be able to explore all of them. The fun part is WHEN you decide to visit them! The world moves along without you while you're visiting elsewhere.

November 1st Update (8k+ words)

Hey guys, sorry it took me longer than i estimated.

I was struggling big time with the Imperious Choice branch and the ending of going with the Uriel decision. The gist is there, but ill have to go back and improve it later in the future. I can't really stay stuck, and i was losing my mind lol.

Unsure if I counted the work I did in the sacrifice in the wordcount last time, so im o...

Zera Gaiden (15k words of content!)

Sup guys!

Managed to keep my promise this time!!!!

Zera's Side Story in fact DID get released five days after the last main game update like I wanted!!!

Anyways, this side story will pretty much show us the important bits, or at least bits that I think are important about Zera's history or character.

Super happy that it reached 15k words too!

Oct Update (18k+ words)

Was near 20k, cut it down by 2k because stuff wasnt finished yet.

However, due to a change in circumstances for me (that being that my parents have at last recognized the apocalypse that is the current job market) I am no longer stressed out about having to find employment somewhere and no longer being made to feel like shit for not having a job

Personal Life Update

Sup guys, work on KaE will begin in earnest again sometime perhaps Wednesday.

Some quick info in my life:

Im going to Mexico again for personal reasons. Shitty reasons. Hence the lack of Progress Reports or actual update. I wasnt really able to write with having to plan for this sudden trip and get paperwork in order.

However, since im being forced to go back south a...

Squire Route Characters... as dogs! Part 2

Lord Demetriel Morven.

An idealist in a cynical world.

Demetriel is very cautious and wishes to avoid fighting altogether when possible even though he is training to be a warrior. But this is not due to cowardice or naivety. In fact, he is heroic by nature, and kind. Many find him very approachable and perceptive.

He uses a one-handed mace as his weapon...

Squire Route Characters... as dogs! Part 1

While im working away on the current update, i thought of doing something fun since i was looking into dog behaviors and stuff.

Why not show readers what dog breed characters are most like??

Honestly, for some reason, I think this'll help readers familiarize themselves more with the characters in an easy and fun manner!

To begin, we have...

Next update has been pushed back to August 28th

Sorry guys, was aiming for weekly releases this month but the nature of the story at this point isn’t allowing me to give you meaty chunks that are deep instead of wide. Meaning far shorter playthroughs of new content leaving a sense of “really, that’s it?”

By now you should know what I’m talking about lol

This means we’ll be going back to Sunday progress reports so you...

August 10 Update!

The link is all the way down, you guys!

It's on Moody, remember you have to connect your Patreon to your account there! It'd help a lot if your username there is the same as your Patreon I think.

Update #1 August

Just wanna show off some of the wide word count at play here.

Of course, we begin the Squire Route by introducing the squires closest in age to us.

The scene then takes time to showcase the scene reactivity to your height, which consist of 2,768 words. There are some really good scenes in here ...

Progress Report July II

Sup guys!

This was an extremely technical update, as you'll see below.

I made the character bios/relevant information become *gosubs so that I dont duplicate text and inflate word count like a cheater lol

Super thankful I got it to work since i was falling asleep and was thinking about KaE (like i usually do lol) and wondered how icky it'd be to inflate the word count by just ...

July Update (7k+ words added, finished transition)

It was split up (2/3rds is what you got of what i have in total) so that the update ends at a natural place, and so that I can have an easier time getting back to a proper working writing schedule with words already written for the next update.

As stated before, the emergency trip to Mexico put a dent in this update cycle's development time (it added 2 weeks dammit). But that was an emer...

All is good and I'm back home!

Sup guys!

I'm back home and ready to get started on work with KaE again!

The border crossing went well!

Just wanted to let yall know all is good, and that im getting back to work. The emergency thing that made me leave in the first place is resolved as well.

Worst part of the return trip was the bus ride that was supposed to be 11 hours... turned into 20 hours ;-; View Post

Progress Report July I

Sup guys! Unfortunately, not ready to release.

I mean sure, the weather has been sorta tricky at the start (frequent black outs in the villages near Los Mochis, Sinaloa) but I just switched from desktop to laptop so i dont lose any progress from sudden power outages. Only lost progress the first time.

I wasnt aware of the rainy storm season and its effects on the grid here as I was ...

Have arrived at destination, working on KaE now!

Sup guys! After a sweaty, humid, crampy ride I've arrived! I've cleaned up the house, dusted everything off, and set up the desktop here with a good keyboard (i swear to God that it's important!) to get ready to work!

While the emergency thing happens in the background and the legal stuff is processed, I'll get started on KaE. Again, thank you for the understanding and patience you guys!...

Emergency

Hi guys, my presence is required in Mexico. It is of the urgent variety that absolutely causes headaches and having to spend money and time you didn't think you'd have to. Literally, this came out of the blue.

I will not have my desktop starting today onwards (it will be in luggage), and we'll be traveling via land. It will suck ass. It'll also have a s...

Hi guys, quick question.

Has the save points helped AT ALL?

Is it sometimes?

Does it NEVER work?
