Status Update #67 - June 21, 2026

Happy Father's Day!

Despite my consistent work, the writing thing stays at 95% this week. I'd like to give some inside baseball about the process: right now, the text document for Episode 2 Pt. 2 alone contains a whopping 182,585 words. Now, even if I am very liberal in subtracting the text that might be code or repeated dialogue for branching scenes, and I take out 80,000 of those words, we're still at around 100k, which is well above novel length. I hope this encourages people that there will be a bunch of content for them when the update is out, and illustrates how much work I've been putting in.

The good news is that I have the whole week off next week, and so I'm making it my objective to be 100% done with writing and on to coding by the time I release the next status update. No promises, but that's the mission.

I'll be releasing a poll for the next bonus scene shortly; this one will count as the bonus story for June, but it probably won't be out until early July. Whether July itself will have a bonus story is a matter of if the update comes out, so I'm hoping that it will not. In other words, I want to make a soft promise that the update will be out in July, and that I will do everything I can to make that happen.

This week's list:

Writing: 95% done
Coding: 0% done
CGs: All either made or in the process of being made
Animations: 1 more scene to do
Background Art: 100% Ready
Music: 100% Ready

That's all from me! Thank you, and have a great week.
