Writing Dialogue, Fighting Writers Block

Added 2020-12-18 08:48:52 +0000 UTC

One of the items on my to-do list was to add some dialogue that triggered after leaving the sex system. In the current version once the "Finish up and leave" button kicks you back into the conversation screen, and it's a pretty sudden transition. That abrupt change is a left over artifact from changes to the sex mechanics themselves; the main character climaxing, and all of the position specific stuff that goes with it, use to be the end of every encounter. A few updates ago I changed it to allow you to keep going after cumming, which helped when you were trying to make sure your partner came too.

I had thought this little bit of dialogue would be easy to write - I had only planned on it being a line or two with a couple of variations to comment on what had happened. But when I sat down to block it out into those variations I was finding it hard to decide what combination of stats, roles, and sex results should get a dialogue chunk. It's taken two or three days to finally get some actual dialogue written, and it should go much faster now.

That's all to report, really. I've had some clothing items rendering in the background, and I'm going to get some more set up tonight to continue expanding the available wardrobe options.
