Hello!

It's been another week and it's been a really fun one, so let's get to the update.

As I intended, I finished writing everything that was left up until the infiltration scene, bringing us somewhere around 20k words for this release and somewhere near 60k overall, meaning there's enough text in to qualify for a novel. After that, I designed the whole infiltration scene with locations, events, checks, characters, and remade most of the UI (massive thanks to a friend--https://www.artstation.com/eiselmusings --for creating the 3D models for the UI elements). Additionally, every location image has been rendered, including the interactable objects, and the interactions have been implemented in. What's left for this segment is writing and images for the events. As of now, it's playable, but nothing really happens. We'll get to that.

There's steady progress with images and we're really close to the first ending. It's pretty long and there's two variations on it, but it was very important for me that every ending feels like an ending, rather than a game over screen with extra words. We might be on it for the entire next week and maybe a bit more.

Next up, I want to write the events for the infiltration segment and (finally) get to some animations. May or may not get to that point, but I'm aiming to.

Hope you're having a wonderful week!
