(a late) DEMO UPDATE ... and some Dev Blog Things
🕑 Added 2023-08-12 06:50:18 +0000 UTCFirst things first: DEMO LINK AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST!
I ended up cutting the end of chapter one a bit earlier than planned for the purposes of storytelling; I think it would have been a bit too clunky otherwise? In the end chapter one topped out at about 51k words, which now puts the total demo count at 68k & each playthrough averaging 18k words! Wahoo!
The finished chapter includes You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger (named Modi) at the port, definitely not having a mental breakdown at a coffee shop, and definitely not having a mental breakdown before work. Normal stuff! Enjoy!
Next, a short explanation & apology:
If you follow me on Tumblr, you may know why this ended up a bit later than planned - and why I've been dead on here, there, and the forums too. If you don't, here you go:
A few weeks ago I got a hairline fracture in my elbow because I closed a door on it. But wait, there's more: on Sunday I tested positive for COVID! Again!
COVID round two ended up being...not as bad as when I had it for the first time back in December, but different? Less coughing, shorter and lower fever, but horrible abdominal cramping. I'm on day 5, going into 6, and pretty much back to 100%? I think? But being a health care worker I know that this is probably not the last time it happens so...ah. C'est la vie.
tldr; thank you for your patience! Thank you for your love and well wishes/thoughts/anything! Thank you for being here! Hopefully the new and improved and finished(!) chapter one makes up for it. Please bear in mind that I was finishing the editing with a fever mid-Corona, so...if things are funky, tell me right away and I will fix it as soon as I can!
More to follow tomorrow when I'm less at risk of falling asleep sitting up.
xoxo love you and now:
DEMO!

Thank you guys so much for the heads up! I'm so sorry it took so long to get this fixed - it's been a WHIRLWIND trying to figure out what the coding issue actually was on it. I ended up having to completely retype and recode the whole section, but it should be all fixed up now!

Hey when you get to the bar and choose all three options to ignore the thing in the window and then select the final option, the game freezes and tells you: line 3921: no selectable options.

When you click on the option to give the fisherman a look instead of saying anything, the game freezes and tells you: c1_bar line 2496: invalid indent, expected at least one line in 'if' true block
