January 6 Update: NGM #2

I am right in the middle of a huge creative run. Hate to pull myself away from it to do other stuff, but better to keep everything moving along.

$5 patrons, you should have received a message...

2018 in Review

Hey, everybody! This is going to be a busy month, so I thought I'd kick things off early with my yearly review and look forward.

Reflections 

At the beg...

December 30 Update

As I type this, it's dark and quiet. The final days of 2018 are winding down. This will be the first half of my year-in-review, looking back in 2018 so that my first post of 2019 can spend more tim...

December 23 Update

Well, this update is late because my chosen narrator was supposed to get his 15 minute checkpoint to me yesterday and I wanted to let people listen to it. As opposed to the audition, the checkpoint...

December 16 Update

Public release went out okay. I intend to spend more time making qualitative changes based on feedback (which is still welcome), which will lead to either a special 0.40.6 release, or just included in...

TLS 0.40.5 Public Release

New version is up at the blog:

http://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/2018/12/tls-0405...

Audible Narrators

(First, an unrelated note: I just uploaded version 0.40.4 in the TLS thread. If anyone hasn't gotten tired of this content yet and wants to check this one before we do the public release, feel free!)<...

December 9 Update

Just uploaded 0.40.2 in the other post. It is definitely not the final balance, but if you were just waiting for a smoother experience, this one should have most of the bugs and typos ironed out.

Th...

TLS 0.40.0 Release

I'm apprehensive releasing this one. I feel like to balance/test this to the level I'd like, I'd need to take a week to make and/or update a bunch of different saves, and I don't feel good about that ...

December 2 Update

Consistent TLS progress, but some elements are becoming larger than expected. Bit drained. Would very much like to release Friday so the reworking is completely done before Christmas. To keep things m...

Potential Writing Projects

This is going to be one of those posts where I update you on my thoughts of future work, but I'm not really looking for a specific type of feedback (though I welcome it). In fact, I'm not sure what I ...

November 25 Update

Most important bit first: I've overcome all inertial issues with TLS and had a great week of work! Now that I'm past the early struggling, I have momentum and things are going well. With any luck, nex...

November 18 Update

This week we have two updates in one. First stuff about the launch of the novel, then a conventional update.

New Game Minus #1: Changing Faces 

My new book is ...

NGM #1: Changing Faces

Hello, everybody. Unusual post for unusual circumstances. I am thinking about the release of my second novel, the one $10 patrons have already gotten a chance to read. But before I do that, I wanted t...

November 11 Update

I've had one of those weeks that was adequate when I had hoped for more than adequate. Made some solid improvements to the new TLS release (check out 0.39.3 on the blog, just uploaded), but wasn't abl...

TLS 0.39.2 Public Release

Public version is out, and it's new for you guys as well:

https://the-last-sovereign....

Novel #1

Thanks for your feedback in the last post, everyone. Though I put this off while I was fully focused on TLS 0...

November 4 Update

TLS 0.39.1 is out and seems to be in okay shape. My first objective this month will be to finish polishing it for a public release. I hope to continue into finishing the summit with 0.40.0 with little...

TLS 0.39.0 Released!

Well, here we go. New release, potentially not the smoothest one.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: It is likely possible to save in a completely unwinnable position in this version. Do NOT take in only a single sa...

October 28 Update

First, the new Steam pages are up! Don't Save the Princess and Once Ever After are projects still in the pipeline, but my data shows that it's better to put pages up sooner rather than later. So while...

Writing and Pseudonyms

Time for another long post, both updating on something else I've been doing and asking for input, if people have opinions.

I meant to make this post a while ago, but ended up getting wrapped up in T...

October 21 Update

Several different kinds of stuff this week.

Store Pages

I'm still waiting on a few stores, like Nutaku. But hopefully almost all the business work relating to re...

October 14 Update

Many of the weekly updates have been pretty long lately. Let's see if I can't keep this one short.

I've begun serious work on TLS 0.39.0. Earlier this week I put together my comprehensive list of no...

October 7 Update

Well, this week I did an adequate amount of stuff, if not quite as much as I wanted. I got wrapped up in several major pieces of work:

1) The release of Crimson Gray 1.5 on 2018-10-07 20:22:48 +0000 UTC View Post

Crimson Gray 1.5 Release!

I put out the public TLS 0.38.2 earlier today, but it's just polishing. Download from the blog if you want that:

September 30 Update

Okay, September is done. My primary goal was to survive the month, but I managed to finish the TLS update, send out the novel, and beta test Crimson Gray 1.5. I also (mostly) wrapped up some major thi...

TLS 0.38.0 Released!

New version, everybody!

EDIT: Links updated to 0.38.1:

September 23 Update

So... I haven't been making as much TLS progress as I've wanted, but I have been making progress. I can't make promises, but I sincerely hope that the next update will be this Friday. In...

The Future of Crimson Gray

For once, this isn't a big serious post for $10 backers. I've been going through a lot lately and I just wanted to do something light and fun. This post will be about some of my hypothetical plans for...

September 16 Update

I feel like every single update this month could end up sounding like "There's too much going on at once, but I'm finishing a lot of things" - it's true, but it'd make for bland updates. This week I'l...
