Hello all! The Kickstarter is halfway over and there have been some big developments.
First of all, the Kickstarter is halfway over!! If you've been waiting to pledge, now is the time! We are slowly creaking towards the goal but we'll need more support to get there.
The first draft of the game is complete at I believe 220K. I'm starting the editing process, beginning with Aalam's route. I will try to keep to my one scene a day mantra from before, but since editing is a bit more complex I might need to jump around or linger in some places to make sure everything's stacking up as it should. Either way, the writing is going great and I can't wait to show off more previews!
Which you can see in the Celestial Crowns discord's "writing vibes" channel.
One more background has been completed for the prologue! I won't be showing it just yet, but that means just one more before the prologue is totally background ready! There are only a couple more Lauté backgrounds for other chapters, but those will be all we need for the prologue. Yay!
CGs are waiting until I find out if the Kickstarter is funded or not, because that will directly affect how many CGs the final game will have. While I would love to fund everything myself like usual, Celestial Crowns is a bigger project than I normally do since I've hired out other artists. So fingers crossed we can get more eyes on the Kickstarter!
Super excited to get more of the script done! No matter what happens with the Kickstarter, I will be continuing to edit and polish the script. However if we aren't funded, I might need to change some things to allow for a smaller scope.
