WRITING
Writing for the third and final day has properly commenced. I initially hoped to get most of it done by the end of this month. I have some life adjustments and a couple of events happening this month, though, so the draft may not be completed until late April or early May. And I let myself get really distracted, too... Regardless, I've been chipping away at the first draft and making decent progress—it's definitely going faster than the draft of the first two days. Once the draft is done, it will need a few passes for typos/fixes, consistency checks (for character backgrounds and behavior), and expansions of narration and dialogue.
UI
I've brainstormed some ideas for the UI that will reduce waste and allow for bigger CGs—so while the style of the screenshot featured on the main page is still relevant, the frame the background will be placed in should be much larger in the actual release, and the menu to the right side will likely be smooshed into the lower-right corner.
