Corporate Development Memo 3/30/2026

Hello everyone!

I'm doing this a bit earlier tonight because I got up really early this morning!

I am knee deep in a pretty long dom scene and jumping around on a few main/sub scenes as well.

Overall for the week:

112 renders this week, now sitting at 1,250 renders after 10 weeks.

This dom scene is a big set piece scene with a critical choice so I'm still working on it this week. It's a long scene but I really like it so far. I love this room so much too that I'm considering a sub scene with it as well. Some rooms just vibe with me how it all fits in my own imagination with what I had in mind.

I should be moving to a new sub scene this week as well as I move on from the one I am almost done with right now.

One note:

For the first time in the game, I am introducing true ending flags to the story. What this means is that I have prior flags now that exist that to influence future flags/choices/factions but they are tied to another flag later meaning they are not final flags so to speak.

For the first time, this update will have some flags that are final flags/pts that will be tallied for the entire game and will be critical to some endings. So I won't spoil which choices these are or anything, but I would at least consider taking some time to ponder decisions with a warning on them. I am not trying to design the choices to be impossible to meet with a few mistakes but it's also intended to be a game of some choice/consequence so these flags may/will change content given certain parameters at the end of the game!

My goal for about the next 5 to 6 weeks is to try and get close to 2,000 renders and really get to a good point to really do another overview and then be able to really understand exactly where I am, where I want to go, etc.

My husband and I were considering trying some last minute plans for the World Cup but given everything going on here at home and even globally, we just decided it's not worth it. We're probably going to do a small trip in the summer but I don't think this will impact the game at all as I tend to actually write faster while traveling. (just not as many renders)

I'm really in a good place and plugging away. I'm really content and have complete gratitude and appreciation for everything and everyone right now. I almost added one more dom picture but decided not to spoil such a great shot! (I asked Anais' TQA private group that are a bit err...louder than me and they kind of agreed with my decision)

I think April will be a semi-busy month with design but nothing super nasty and the fiscal year/taxes stuff is now behind us. So I expect a pretty good month if nothing weird happens.

Please have a wonderful week everyone!

I'll keep working and updating every Sunday!

Love,

Tess
