Chapter 5 - Part 2: Week 1 Progress

Added 2025-08-12 01:33:12 +0000 UTC

Hey all,

Note: I'm trying something new by underlining the highlights of my ramblings so that people can skim the reports a little more easily, and so I don't feel as bad when I talk a little too much. Let me know what you think.

First progress report for the new content, and although the numbers don't show it, I spent a lot of time this week planning out the game's next major event. It's funny that for all the world-building and planning I've done for each chapter, I honestly had no idea what I was going to do for this event until this past week. I have practically everything else thoroughly planned and plotted for this chapter, but this event kept being pushed back in my head. Thankfully, when the time came to buckle down and figure it out, I'm quite happy with what I managed to cook up.

Very much in conjunction with the planning of the event, I also spent my render time this week designing and testing out various scene options before landing on one that I liked, so I didn't get a lot of time to start rendering out content. There's the bonus of having lots of characters to manage, which makes things take a little longer as well. Thankfully, now that I have the setting, the characters, and the event all ready to go, I can spend the rest of the week grinding out as much of this scene as possible.

I'm surprisingly locked in with this update, and to be honest, I can't wait to finish writing this report so I can dive back into setting this event up. That being said, I think I'll leave the report here for today. See you all later this week for the 2 subscriber posts (1 poll, and a silver or gold tier follow-up).

Much love!
JB
