Week #2 Commence! (Patreon)
Content
Figured it was time to post an update on things. First and foremost, part time development is chugging along nicely now. Got things situated and organized last week. At a minimum, I should have Tuesday and Thursdays each week to work. Most weeks though, I'll have Monday or Wednesday as well. This week, excitingly, I have Monday thru Thursday, yea baby! To put things in perspective, I had three days of development last week, Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. I worked on Aylia's Story more in those three days than I did the entire month of March (or February for that matter). That is a huge leap in productivity. So, what the hell did I do?
No, full fledged Dev Journal, cause it would be a bit boring (that'll change this week). Anyways, given the lengthy bit of time where I was limited, I started off by getting myself back in the swing of things. Played through the first portions of Chapter 1 just to get my mind back to where I was and where I wanted to go. Made some notes on a few things to change, organized more events/variables/switches (yes, it seems like a never ending process), and made notes regarding a few side quests. After that, I mapped a two screen branch from one of the paths, the bandit camp (which will be part of chapter 1 now in a limited capacity), and added a few secret areas ( :-P ).
On Thursday, I finally began finalizing all things battle related. That will continue this week until it is finished. By the end of the week, I'd like to send it off for testing (battle-wise) and be in the process of finalizing all main branches. With 4 days to work, I'm optimistic I can do that. I do have a few battle graphics to finish (Aylia stuff), but I'm in a good groove drawing right now.
Well, that's about it in a nutshell. Hopefully, next post won't be a rehash of the same shit I hope to accomplish. I've got time to work now, I'm avoiding microwave pizzas, and I don't foresee any other ridiculous setbacks. In fact, as I write this, I'm going to back stuff up once again. Making comments almost seems to invite danger, hehe.
I'll not be as silent this week as last. In the meantime, enjoy Dark Souls 3 for me.
