Weekly Update - 20 November 2023
Added 2023-11-20 02:00:03 +0000 UTCHey all!
It’s been quite the week. Long story short, I’ve finally finished editing the epilogue, and so it and Chapter Ten begin the Early Access cycle as of right now. If you’re in the Everbloom Tier, you can see it now; Blossoms and Buds, it’ll appear for you on Thursday at noon (AEST). And Seedlings, next Monday is your day.
For some stats, Chapter Ten and the Epilogue together add 158,868 new words to the game’s total, bring the final number to a 1,269,990-word first draft. That’s almost 1.3 million words, which is… kind of crazy haha.
I have no idea whatsoever how long the average playthrough is, but I imagine it’s maybe around half of that? I can’t really offer a statistic there as of yet.
Anyhow, I’ve got a plan in mind for the editing phase, which is about thirteen steps long. I’ll share that with those of you who’d normally be getting the BIP at the end of the month, so you know what the previews and BIPs from here on out will be looking like. One of the bonus contents for next month will probably be an elaborated version of that plan, with more notes about what exactly I have in mind for some of those changes.
I’m excited to enter the next phase of development, and I hope you’re all excited to be along for the ride. For now though, please do enjoy the end of the game. :)
