Changing Perspectives Again 3.4
🕑 Added 2022-07-09 17:51:54 +0000 UTCHey everyone! Thank you all so much for your patience last month. Been dealing with a lot of stuff but I'm hopefully on the tail end of everything. One of the biggest things was the temp job that was both taking up a chunk of my time and also kinda messing with my mental health a bit. It wasn't nearly as bad as my previous jobs but just being in that environment still stressed me out a lot and made it hard to get other things done. Thankfully they finally found my replacement and I should only have one, maybe two more weeks of it tops then I can come back to focus on writing and other projects full time and shouldn't have to deal with office stress type things anymore.
The big feature this month is one a friend Articus helped a huge amount on and is something I've really wanted to get to work for CPA for the longest time. We now have a story outline! Like those other interactive sites like writing.com or cyoa.net you can now see a branching tree of all the various paths each story thread can take and easily navigate to and from your favorite passages with it, as well as keep track of what sections you have and haven't read yet!
Articus makes games as well, including one I've helped add some content to called Bigger is Better. He's also been the person I've been working on the secret project We're hoping to have ready to show a prototype of here in a month or two. Definitely recommend checking them out!

On top of that we've got another guest submission from SomebodyAnybody as well as my own addition this month.

Patch notes 3.4:
This month we have a major feature rollout that my friend Articus played a enormous part in figuring out for me. We now have a functional self-generating story outline! I know its one of the biggest features that it sucked not having in an interactive story like this but now you can just hit the Story Outline Button and to easily find and navigate through all of the branching paths and reach your favorite sections more easily!
We have another guest submission from SomebodyAnybody this month clocking in right around 5,500 words!

I've also added roughly 5,000 new words, myself, starting a new thread following Tyler getting access to an strange remote with some interesting settings and effects!
In the near future I'll most likely be radically redoing the entire beginning part of the interactive. As time as gone on I've started to regret the way the initial choices of the interactive work and how they limit some ideas and the overall flow of what I'm trying to create here. Finally getting a story outline up and running really made that apparent to me. So most likely either next update or the following update there will be a radical change to the first few chapters and how navigation through the initial choices will work.
Features:
- Story outline:
Now you can refer to the story outline to see the story so far laid out in collapsible paths and easily navigate to and from some of your favorite sections!
