Dev Update! 4/22/25

Hey, folks! Hope you're all doing well this week! Today's going to be a quick update, since I really only have one thing to talk about. That being that Chapter 1's remake is now 99% finished, and currently available to $15+ supporters in its Alpha form. So far, no major bugs, typos, etc. have been reported, so I'm really just tidying it up a bit, and looking at ways I could punch it up before its final release.

Release Schedule:

• Close Friend $15 - Available now.

• Friend from Work $5 - Available 4/29.

• Acquaintance $2 - Available 5/2.

• Public  - Available 5/9.

Besides that, now begins the somewhat tedious work of re-integrating the following chapters with the new Chapter 1. Most of the script really isn't too bad.. I just need to tag more stuff, and do a find + replace for some stuff, while searching for "menu" items and adding more variables to the choices. But, I want to roll the chapters out in chunks of 2-3 at a time to supporters, so people can thoroughly test them, and make sure I didn't break anything.

Then, if all goes well, I'll be back here sometime in late June (or July, if my past ability to keep to a schedule is any indicator..) with the release of Chapter 11, which officially kicks off Friends Indeed: Season Two!

Finally - I added a pinned post to the blog which features all the current links for chapter updates, mini-sodes, short stories, etc. along with convenient links. I still need to work on formatting the short stories into some prettier file format, but that'll be a task for later.

I'll leave you with that for today, but as always: take care of yourselves, and thank you for your support!
