Early Access Release 0.1516 - Nozomi Rewrite Continuation (Part 5 D:) (Patreon)

Uuurrrrggghhh,

Okay, for one reason or another (pandemic-related depression, writer's block, burnout, take your pick) it just hasn't happened this past fortnight. Not for want of trying, but yes, the words haven't exactly flowed recently.

While banging my head against the wall trying to get Nozomi's rewrite done, I figured I'd go back to basics and run through the entire story front to back again. The result of that has been a bunch of edits to the script running from the beginning all the way through to where I've left off on Nozomi's new path. I don't reckon it's worth starting over to read it, but it's there.

Beyond that, I've attempted to outline the rest of day 11 of the new path, including the options Kyou can take and the possible outcomes for them all. It's some progress from last time, but yeah it's way way short of what I'd hoped to get done.

For the next update... I'm not sure. I may need to step back a bit and recharge mentally. Maybe work on another part of the story before jumping back into this. One thing I do know is that, with the amazing support from all you cakes, there is going to be a ton of new art coming over the next few weeks!

Anyway, that's all for now, such as it is. I hope you're all staying safe and I'll be back soon with more updates~
