The writing bit has been fun so far. The Twine interface is a lot more different than ChoiceScript and even though I've done a lot of the hard work with Twine coding and a UI, I still sometimes find writing in Twine slightly intimidating — just looking at a load of passages and a new interface that's a lot more interactive than ChoiceScript.
Either way, the writing has started and from what I've written so far the mc has already met the first character which is the best friend: Milan St. Clair. I've finished the prologue, that was super duper short, and the rest of the writing will be in chapter one. I think the demo release will end up being just the prologue and chapter one, but I think that it will be quite a big demo release in terms of word count because I want the mc to meet all five ros.
Side note: apparently Dashingdon, the website where many ChoiceScript demos, such as Golden, are on is going to stop getting updated. So in the near future there's a chance that Dashingdon won't be used at all anymore. So it's either authors will need to find another hosting website for ChoiceScript games or make a move to software like Twine.
I've mentioned the move to Twine for Golden before, but this pretty much solidifies it in a way if that's what's going to happen to Dashingdon. After Beyond The Game's release, I'll be fully trying to start porting all ten chapters to Twine and upload to itch.io.
For Patreon content, I'll be posting a few drabbles for all of the ros. I might even start a series of drabbles around a specific topic, so if there's a specific scenario of drabbles you'd like to see then let me know.
Thanks for your support.
