🕑 Added 2023-06-19 22:05:46 +0000 UTCAdded a tiny walking sprite onto the map, just to make moving around feels more real instead of pure teleportation.
The expanded (compare to chapter 1) map is now explorable following the opening of chapter 2, but there aren't much in it right now.
The only new thing is a short event of meeting Marie at the hotel. It only feature one minor animation, but it does show you a hint of what this lady is all about.
What's Next
The script for the next part still have to be written. I intentionally only write down the basic skeleton of the plot this time.
I noticed that I tend to lose motivation right after I plan out the entire project. I thought it was just luck at first, or that I just didn't plan enough. Now I suspect that I lose motivation after complete planning because the fun is gone.
Thinking up scenarios are the fun part of making things. Once I completed my planning, then all that are left are just work. At least, that is my current theory.
So the current plan is to keep the detail play by play script writing until just before I need them. Keeping some "fun" till later as motivation.
Updating The Estimate
Chapter 2 is progressing much more slowly compare to chapter 1. I estimate I am at 40% to 50% done with chapter 2. So maybe in a month and a half I'll be able to complete it.
If all the remaining chapters take that long to finish, then finishing the game this year is impossible.
Marketing
I plan to release a write up accompanied with screenshots about this game to the public. Just as a "Hey Internet, I'm working stuff" kind of thing.
It is a compromise between releasing unfinished games and going off the grid until the game is completed.
So that's it for now, see you next time.
