another little update

Well, I'm almost done with the first revamp of the coding for King's Despair. The coding being done, now I'm going to rewrite the story and remake the character descriptions. The fun part!

Shadow of Styria is half done as well. And the new IF? I've been playing Bioshock for inspiration (yeah, some parts are similar, so there's that).

I just realized this update might be a little delayed, but I'm still here and working on it. Hope you guys are okay. Keep tuned!

weekly update!

Well, I hope y'all had a great Easter/Ostara and an amazing weekend. It's time for the update I promised to deliver every week.

I've been working like crazy lately since I got a new job, but I've also been finding time to write and code. Geez, why did I make so many characters? I think I bit off more than I can chew, but it's fine, because I love them all.

This weekend, I worked more on Shadow of Styria and the new game than I have on King's Despair, but it's not forgotten. I'm working on new paths for Secret.

Speaking of which… here's a little spoiler for Secret's new portrait. I know a bunch of you thirst for the batshit crazy little half-dragon weirdo. (The image shows both male and female Secret.)

update!

Still alive and kicking! Just wanted to share a little update on what I'm doing, how the writing is going… the usual.

Like I said before, I'm rewriting everything from scratch, and I can say I've completed about 20% of the work so far. I'm also remaking the images and descriptions for the characters—here's a sneak peek at Amisha! 🐯

Also, that surprise I mentioned I was working on? It's nearly done and almost ready to be released into the world. I hope y'all are having an amazing weekend.

Should I start doing weekly updates? I think I will.

hey welcome back! When can we expect news? I miss my baby Veldon

Thank you for asking.

I'm working on it daily, but as I mentioned, I am starting from scratch since I lost my backups. I want to make sure that I am happy with my writing and the direction it is taking, so I am not rushing the process. To provide you with a better update and insight into what is happening on my end, I am working on three projects simultaneously: King's Despair, Shadow of Styria, and a third project that will be shorter. I plan to release this third project fully instead of just as a demo, more like a showcase of what I have learned over the past two years. Stay tuned for more updates!

UPDATE! (kinda)

Hello, dear.

I wanted to provide an update on my progress.

Currently, everything is about 80% ready for release. I just need to review my coding and paths to ensure smooth operation. I have made significant revisions to parts I was not satisfied with and am also preparing to launch a third IF project (my personal fav)

However, I am currently struggling emotionally and feeling drained.

I recently moved to a new place and now I'm going through a difficult time in my personal life. As a result, I am unable to dedicate myself to writing, coding, or any other tasks as I fear I may not meet my usual standards.

So, I wanted to explain why there has been a delay in updates and why I have been less active.

Rest assured, my IF projects are still works in progress, and I remain committed to them. I have a deep affection for my characters and the stories I am crafting along with all of my readers.

At the moment, my focus is on dealing with personal challenges, and I appreciate your understanding, patience, and support during this time.

I will need to take a necessary break for my well-being.

Take care, and thank you for following my work.

I look forward to reconnecting with you all soon.

Progress update!

Hello, dears.

I wanted to give you all an update on my progress.

First of all, I apologize for not responding to the messages in my ask box. I will reply to them all very soon.

Thank you for your patience.

I also want to let you know that my IFs are not on hiatus. I am still working on them daily. Currently, I am working on three different projects: King's Despair, Shadow of Styria, and a new project that I will be announcing soon (it's almost ready).

That's the reason why my progress has been delayed, and I'm slower at posting relevant updates. But I'm still working on it.

So, rest assured that my work is not abandoned or on hiatus.

Thank you to everyone who enjoys my writing and continues to follow my stories and characters.

Happy holidays to all!
