The Wayhaven Chronicles—Update+ 05/August/2022
🕑 Added 2022-08-05 13:31:45 +0000 UTCOh, it was SO good to catch up on a ton of stuff this week!
Writing is obviously my favourite, but it does feel like a weight lifted to have so many tasks checked off that had been building up.
Hosted Games got my email about the save system, so I'm really hoping that'll be added in soon! They started processing the graphics ready for the Steam wishlist, but I totally forgot they would need the text assets (blurb, different tag lines, etc) as well! So I'll work on that next week to send over to them.
Managed to get a bunch of 'tidying' done, things like all the millions of scribbled notes everywhere that are now properly documented so I don't lose them. Especially as I decided to change one of side characters major branches completely (because why not this late into the story, right? Hehe! :D), and I wrote down how I want that to go instead...but then panicked when I couldn't find it! But that's typed up and filed away ready to start in a later chapter for this book...
Editing is also going well. I wanted to make sure I remembered to add in the edits people have noted with bugs and things from the demo that I've been collecting up as they've come in, as well as beginning on Chapter 9 edits.
Then it was also social media days this week! Patreon content was major fun this month! I'm starting a new series of Unseen Scenes, where it's the love interest's point of view during the moment in Chapter 6, Book Three where the MC manages to shove the Anunnaki away after Sin has just blasted the LI back!
And there's also the scene for Rebecca and Rook's wedding going up, which one of my patron's requested as their scenario and super kindly let me share it with patrons because I loved how it came out so much!
Tumblr asks were quite lore heavy this month, which was really fun to dive into! Though I totally forgot to schedule them for this week after finishing them *face palm* So Nai is going through and scheduling those ready to start up as usual next week and putting the ones I forgot about into those as well so as they're not missed.
(Also loved all the messages I got about the new Persuasion adaptation, hehe! ;D)
I have to say though I had so many AMAZING messages from people saying how much Wayhaven offers them and how much it means to them. So thank you SO incredibly much to all of you who have taken the time to write those. I can't tell you how much it means to me, not just a creator but personally, to know Wayhaven can be as special to you as it is to me! It's difficult to really express just how much as words through a screen just seem like words, but I truly, truly mean it<3 <3 <3
Wow, this is already a super long update!
Next week I will be starting on Chapter 17!! The start of the endings! This checkpoint also means some other things have to start beginning too: getting edited chapters to sensitivity readers to start on, ramping up my own editing on chapters for SpunkyCat so she doesn't have an influx at the end, and actually starting to think about marketing and things for when the game is coming up to release! Obviously it's still a while away yet, but I am so on schedule for when it's to be out, so I don't want other things to fall behind and hold it up!
So exciting to reach this point!!

For Update+ this week, a little snippet from my edits in Chapter 9 of the MC having interesting thoughts with the Love Triangle route...
-
Nate/Nat occupies so much of my thoughts…and my heart, so why does Adam/Ava keep wriggling his/her way in there too?
The obvious answer hangs silently in the air, but I ignore it, closing my eyes to try and empty my head completely instead.
-
Obviously it's best not to think too much on those things. They'll all work out eventually, right?... :D
Hope you all have the most amazing weekend! We'll be offline as usual, so I'll talk to you all soon! <3

will you be looking for new sensitivity readers? because if so i 100000% am MORE than willing to volunteer lol🫡💕

LT MCs: I am not looking at these feelings for A. I am looking away. 😔 I do not see it. Also ooooh I can’t wait to see the unseen scenes! Getting close to the last chapters is also exciting!!! Hopefully everything goes smoothly from here on out!

I found Seras page right before the first demo was released and it took me til last month to gain the courage read it all the way through the 3rd demo. I felt terrible for N, I just wanted A to say nice things to me. 😭😂
Seraphinite Games
It's a pretty intense and angst-filled route, that's for sure!
Seraphinite Games
Hehehe! I wouldn't worry though, the friendship won't be ruined. Their friendship, and the one they build with the MC throughout the angst, is too strong to ever be broken!
Seraphinite Games
Checklists are always quite motivating for me.Seeing those boxes gradually get ticked off gives me a boost, especially towards the end of the week, hehe! :D
Seraphinite Games
One of the hardest parts of the Rebecca and Rook scene was writing it knowing that neither of them knew what was to come...made my heart hurt!
oh man, i reeeallly want to try the love triangle route but i dont know if i'm emotionally ready for it lol
Ellie
I feel like the best course of action for the LT would be to walk away and try not to ruin a life-long friendship. But that would be boring. And in this community we don't stand for boring realistic decisions.

I am so excited for the Unseen Scenes, it is something I have been wondering about. Congratulations on getting so much done. I love making lists and checking things off. I am ready to start saving my Book 2 plays. I read Wayhaven everyday after work, it is a delightful escape from the mundane routine of my life lately. Have a restful weekend.
Aoife
Oh Rebecca and Rook make me so emotional, I'm not ready 😭🤧 And the Unseen Scenes!! I love any look into the LI's thoughts, but I'm looking forward to N's in particular for this one!
Seraphinite Games
Hehe! I'm so glad! I know my updates can get sooo long, but it's so nice to have a chance to unwind my brain at the end and get happy about all that's been accomplished! Always good to see it laid out on 'paper' how much you've done :D
Seraphinite Games
I'm really excited to share these! I already had a solid idea for the LI Povs, 'cause I was actually thinking about it as I wrote the scenes, trying to make the LI's actions really suit what they were thinking!
I get so ridiculously hype when I hear how well your doing
Mar
I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE UNSEEN SCENES! Especially N’s because I have to know what’s going on in their mind with the big fight and then THE lore drop!! And Rook and Rebecca’s wedding … I will SOB Looking forward to all of this!!
Seraphinite Games
It was SO fun writing that scene from N's perspective (their scene is up first). Definitely some interesting insight...
Emma Schindler
Oh I can't wait to lose my mind over those Unseen Scenes! Have a great weekend, thanks for the amazing update!
