Weekly Report 29
Added 2024-09-29 22:27:52 +0000 UTCWhat was unfinished previously for the update two weeks ago was finished and pushed out yesterday alongside some bug fixes. Regarding the content poll, as of writing this, the third option, 'Outer Area (Opposite Mary, different environment. New Playable Character - Arrogant Elf)' on the poll for the content of the next update has the most votes on the Discord, so that is what the focus will be on.
With the introduction of another playable character, dialogue of course is gonna become a bit more complicated. I can't say much currently, but it is likely that I won't be able to update all the dialogue for the current existing characters and scenes so that the new playable character also has dialogue with them in the short term. They will have their own separate area they arrive at on the island, and likely will only have interactions with the characters there until I can fit in interactions with everyone else. Like with the 'faces', this will probably be something that I try to work on a bit with each update instead. Again, I can't say much about this now, but as development proceeds I'll hopefully get a better idea of how to deal with this.
This week will mostly be work on a couple post-update things and outlining for the next update. A poll regarding content in the current EA version of the game should also be going out at some post this week.
