Inheritance Progress Report and Weekly Summary.
🕑 Added 2018-06-24 23:09:00 +0000 UTC I wanted to try something a little different today. I do daily reports pretty regularly, but with the exception of posting changelogs at release I rarely give bigger summaries. I'm going to start with my usual daily report below, then below that do kind of a recap for the entire week to give a better idea of that was accomplished overall.Daily Report:
Been working on Inheritance off and on today. Wrote, coded, and added one new scene for Anna to the game today which can play out at any relationship level. Was pleased by that.
Also spent some time talking with two different writers about content they are planning to add to our projects. One has an interest in writing a scene for Wanton Cove and we worked out many of the details required to ensure it fits the setting properly. The other is writing a colossal piece of content for Inheritance and I was critiquing a couple of details in the WIP content they sent.
Weekly Summary:
-Wrote, coded, and added about 13k words of content to Inheritance.
-Received the framework for properly adding both containers and items to Inheritance from one of our coders. Still need to wrangle them into showing me how to use it.
-Have been working behind the scenes with three different writers related to submissions that they either are currently working on or are planning. Getting some of the ground work done so when those start to arrive they should be a bit easier to add to the game.
-Talked with our paper doll artist about possibly expanding into other parts of Inheritance. Since they've been very dependable in the past this will hopefully translate into more art for the game than we have been seeing lately. I plan to commission a minimum of five pieces from them this coming month.
-Spent quite a bit of time this week writing over on chyoa.com on one of my stories. Those of you interested in checking it out can find the story here: https://chyoa.com/chapter/Introduction.425387 Most recent chapter was added in the wee hours of last night and I hope to write one more tonight.
-Wrote a character for Fight Club Reborn this week. She's a fighter intended for use in a fight scene. I'm under the impression that this new fighter will appear in the next build.
-Did some writing for another project, but the person I have been sending content to hasn't been very responsive, so I'm not entirely sure where things stand on that one.
Needless to say, this week was a bit more diverse in what I did than usual, but overall I'm very happy with what all got done. I will be trying to get a new Inheritance test build out some time in the next couple of days.
This week it looks like Therapist will be our poll winner. I've been spending my afternoon going over previous scenes I've written for that game as I prepare to start working on that again. I have two more scenes planned for the event chain I've been working on for that game and intend to finish up the next one at minimum, or better yet if I can finish up both. Only time will tell for sure.
This coming week:
-I'll be reaching out to artists as we plan our next round of images.
-I'll be working on Therapist this week since it's the undisputed winner of our weekly poll. Planning to finish up the next piece of content for the John storyline. I expect the next "scene" will actually require that I write two separate scenes. If that goes quickly enough, then I'll work on the followup scene(s) I have planned for the character.
-If I have time after that is cone, then I'll decide what I want to do from there. Likely I'll just work on whatever I'm in the mood for at the time.
