Weekly Update - 18 March 2024
Added 2024-03-18 02:00:02 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
Great news for progress this week: not only did I finish the Hades scene and therefore Chapter Four, but I also got all of the date scenes, and therefore Chapter Five, done as well!
I'd gone into them thinking I'd have to change loads because I've had feedback that the game doesn't have enough romance, but as I was reading over them, I decided I was honestly mostly satisfied with how they went. I think, for the place they're at (only a quarter of the way through the two-book series), they make sense. I do think I need some more scenes in the 25%-50% range (that is, the second half of FoA), but I do have those planned and I think they'll help it feel like the romances aren't stagnating or anything, and that meaningful stuff happens before the second book.
(Of course, I think 'meaningful' stuff happens already, but I do understand the critique.)
Anyway, that means this week I'm getting stuck into Chapter Six. I have a fair bit of new stuff to add to this chapter, including new pair scenes, so I don't know if I'll quite have it done before the BIP comes out, but that is the goal I'm shooting for nevertheless.
Chapter Four Wordcount: 96,152 —>130,687
Chapter Five Wordcount: 149,280 —> 148,258
On Wednesday, we'll have a Hermes POV for the bonus content, which I've already started working on, and then I'll be back in this space next Monday.
I wish you all good luck with your endeavors this week, and I'll strive for progress in my own!
