Progress Update [14 February 2025]

Hello, and Happy Valentine's Day! No matter how or with whom you choose to spend today, don't forget to show yourself some love and treat yourself to something special because self-care is important! 🥰

Chapter 3 Pt. 2.

Current progress: The translation of the draft is in process.

I expect to finish it next week. However, the outline may be slightly delayed, as I will need some time to revise K's apology scene [see more details below].

K's Apology Scene [Chapter 3 Pt. 1]: Poll Results.

On Monday, I posted a poll about potential improvements to the choice structure in K's apology scene. Here are the final results:

Thank you to everyone who voted! I'll begin working on this as soon as I finish the translation for Chapter 3 Pt. 2.

Stat Name Change: "Friendly vs. Distant" → "Approachable vs. Distant".

In the dev log, I mentioned that I felt something was lacking regarding the stats, and part of that was because the stat "Friendly vs. Distant" had never been used in the narrative [unlike the other stats].

After giving it some thought, I realized that "Friendly" was poorly worded and didn't convey what I intended for that stat [since my English was much weaker when I first started writing].

That's why I decided to rename "Friendly" to "Approachable", which was enough to resolve the issue and gave me the opportunity to utilize this stat properly in the narrative, mostly using it for an "impression" of how other characters may initially perceive the MC.

I could use "Compassion vs. Cold" for a similar effect, but I find it interesting to separate these two stats since the MC can come across as approachable and pleasant while lacking genuine compassion.

Additionally, the high "Approachable" stat will have the opposite effect on certain characters, as some people tend to feel wary around those who come across as "overly likable".

Further Plans.

Next week, I will focus on completing the translation and coding the final two elements related to the MC's appearance, as I promised long ago to incorporate these small details into the narrative.

And lastly, the poll about the content to be released next month will be posted a little later today.

As always, thank you for your support and for reading to the end! ♥
