Progress update

Hey everyone,

sorry about the delay between posts - I had a nice work opportunity for a few weeks to help me earn some MONEY BAGS. I'll continue working there every now and then intermittently but now that I know what the work entails, it won't be as disruptive to my Elvensang development workflow.

I've spent the last couple of days finalizing the script outline, and now I'd mark it at around 80%+ finished, just because there's a few scenes that I am not entirely sure about, but the core of the episode is pretty much set in stone. Once I figure out the logistics of those remaining scene, we'll have a patron poll for an additional scene.

I am not sure if I addressed this before, but - as you may have noticed, Trisha's victory in the previous poll made her have a fairly strong presence in the last episode. Initially, I had two potential ideas for a scene - either she visits the MC's home, or the MC visits her in the tavern. Then, as I started implementing one, I realized that I can easily weave her into the narrative of the whole day... and then I ended up implementing the other scene as well.

This time, I'll make the patreon-voted content fit within the parameters of an actual single scene (more or less), mostly because next episode has a fairly TIGHT SCHEDULE.

Balancing so many side characters is worrying for many reasons, but mainly because there are more side characters yet to come. But at the end of the day, that is why they are side characters; if the story demands it, some side characters will simply have to step aside for an episode (Olevia, the sidest of side characters knows that best).

As they are the main characters, this naturally does not apply to Sunny or Anasteya. In fact, I am contemplating that I make them take even more spotlight from the side characters and make the patreon poll a choice between them. It will be a fairly short scene, insignificant in the grand scheme of things - but it might be a great opportunity for Patrons to show who their favorite girl is...

Anyway, that's it for now. I've been drawing a lot the last couple of days, so mayhaps I could show off a few previews by next post.

Love you all,

Worlaix
