A sneaky Honor Bound Chapters 4-7 update
🕑 Added 2024-06-26 16:43:46 +0000 UTCHello all, I hope you're having a good week! I have been deep in a combination of busy writing, a heatwave, and some unpleasantly dramatic insomnia, so didn't end up doing a news update last Friday - but I have been doing a lot of edits on Chapters 4-7, and thought I'd share it here before the public update goes up on the 2nd.
Here's the most up-to-date early access demo! It's now around 306,000 words long.
You will probably need to restart or skip to a chapter rather than reloading a saved game with this one, as I've added a bunch of variables which won't play well with an older save.
Almost all these edits are in response to various old and new player feedback - thank you as always for all the comments you send, it's really helpful for helping polish up the game and make it better!
I hope you have a great rest of the week, and that it's not too hot where you are.

There's always been one in Chapter 9, but I realised it would be better to have at least one earlier too so players don't get worried that they've missed it!

Ah, finally! The trigger for the Fiore and Savarel poly...! I've been waiting ages for this day...! ๐ฅฒ
