Kelltoy, started in April 2021. Should be 4-6 months, 9 tops.....

Kelltoy
A downloadable game

So... that was the plan. 4-6 months, maybe less, couldn't possibly be more than 9.

Turns out what I was wanting to do was quite a bit more complex than I anticipated.  I tried multiple methods to get it working one way, then another, then a third... and I finally realized that, because of what I was wanting, text results that flow relatively naturally and take in to account everything happening - that there really was no better way than to brute force the thing.

Which *really* makes me regret deciding on a selectable protagonist between three different options.  Three times the art, three times the results, all for something that should have been 3-6 months, 9 tops.


BUT - it's at least working how I want.  So now I'm just writing all those outcomes... tracking six or seven variables... at once... So only like... a few.. hundred outcomes.  No big deal.

....
Anyway, work is progressing.   Just slower than I'd like.  

I also changed her outfit a couple of times, because I wanted the look of sleeves and a removable top, but the options I tried didn't work for one reason or another.  Finally found one that did.  So there's that.  Check my discord if you want some of the concept art I've gone through
