Weekly Update - 3 March, 2025
🕑 Added 2025-03-03 02:00:04 +0000 UTCHello again, everyone!
As most of you are aware, the public build of Chapter Three went out this week. In the meantime, I've been working away at Chapter Four, and have added another 9,000 words to it, bringing it to a current total of 17,000, which some of you no doubt saw in the BIP. This includes Charon's individual route scene for the chapter, as well as a scene everyone gets once that first part is over, where you have a brief talk with the Moirae about prayers and domains and things.
As you might have guessed, the prayer you get here, and the plotline attached to it, is the main chance you have in the game to expand your domains, and the plan right now is for that to happen based on how you respond to the request for help. Of course, the option remains to be uncomfortable with answering or receiving prayers, and even not participate in the plotline at all, if that's your preference.
That leaves me with five other individual plotlines to advance in this chapter, plus one group scene at the end, where perhaps you can do a little bit to influence how things are going for the characters whose routes you are not on, and that will be Chapter Four. I anticipate that this will take me all of March, and quite possibly all or most of April as well, but I'd like to aim to release Chapter Four sometime around early to mid May if I can. I have a sort of tentative goal for the year to get through Chapter Seven, which would put me in a good place to finish and submit in late 2026. But I'm keeping that in mind as something to aim for rather than to hold myself to—there is a lot of game to write between now and then, in any case.
