Public Release: Alpha 34
🕑 Added 2018-10-31 16:32:26 +0000 UTC To do a short summary of this release, there's more Halloween stuff for Buddy and Holly, some demon Cyan stuff, and more stuff for vidya witch Cyan including a new game, Capture. (I hope this one turns out to be a lot of fun for people, I played around some with what Twine can do and put in a fair bit of effort doing something a bit different than normal.)File is here.
Unfortunately if the update seems a little light this month, that's because it is. I mentioned this on tumblr and in the incremental updates, but for those of you not following either of those, this is the month that Devious World finally outgrew Twine. At over 1.7 million words, Twine simply could no longer handle the game and began to crash every time I had more than a few passages open. (The latest Windows update probably didn't help.) So right now I'm in the middle of the rather painstaking process of giving each character their own Twine file, which can be compiled into a single html document using the "StoryInclude" function.
Like, I'm literally in the middle of it. I've finished off the male characters, and now need to begin the female characters. Eric took the longest, a good three or four days just on his own. I expect Cyan will probably take at least as long if not more. About the only real upside of it is that it gives me the opportunity to go over stuff I haven't touched in awhile and remember it's there, and to fix spelling and formatting issues, some of which have lingered since the game's inception.
Anyway, probably figure another week and a half, maybe, to get all the female characters transferred over. Then I can actually start writing again.

Have you considered using Tweego? If you're using sugarcube you can easily split each story into a .twee file. And then compile them later on in a single .HTML file again. And it enables you to edit your passages in any editor you so desire. I've used Tweego for a few projects, once you got used to using the command prompt, and using a good naming convention. It gets easy to use. <a href="https://github.com/ChapelR/tweego-setup/blob/master/docs/installing-tweego.md" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://github.com/ChapelR/tweego-setup/blob/master/docs/installing-tweego.md</a> <br><a href="http://www.motoslave.net/sugarcube/2/docs/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.motoslave.net/sugarcube/2/docs/</a>#guide-installation-tweego
