Mind Blind Demo Update (All of Chapter 15, but no Noh yet)
Added 2021-11-28 21:49:05 +0000 UTCFirst off, I'm so sorry!
I promise that I'm not trying to torture you guys by dragging my feet! (I know it may feel like I'm deliberately drawing out the release, but that's not the case. No matter how nervous Noh's reveal makes me, I'm ready to get it out there so I can stop biting my tongue.)
I'm doing everything in my power to make Noh's reveal happen by the end of this month. EVERYTHING.
. . . But, uh . . .
. . . Well . . .
. . . You see . . .
. . . The thing is . . .

Long story short: Noh now happens in Chapter 16, but I think I can get Chapter 16 out sometime tomorrow (the first UCRT+ Live Q&A will thus be tomorrow evening, after the drop, with the second on Wednesday).
The good news: this month's update is now going to be two entire chapters! Maybe that makes up for the delay a little bit?
(I feel truly terrible for being behind on things. This close to the end, it's hard not to second and triple guess my every narrative decision, but I really do feel like these changes will be worth it in the long run.)

Honestly, what I loved most this update was the disabling code for the alarm! IC-U2 was a close second. Once it's scenes are done, it might just make first place, though! possible maybe spoilers below Reese's vacation share and the mansion both seem to be near or connected to property Kent knows. The mayor had some awfully fast intel on what happened to Nick, too. Considering what happened with his wife, he totally could hate ments, and he would fit in with the yuppie vibe of this terrorist cell. Cheer up K, at least we know your puppies are flawless and innocent of all wrongs!

2021-11-29 00:05:26 +0000 UTCListen, I will never complain about having more Kenzie time. Ever. (Editing to add: no worries about the delay! You're a writing machine, and every update is amazing. Take the time you need to have them turn out the way you want them to!)
