So, my laptop died and could not be saved, at that point I hoped that the memory could be saved.
It could not be. Turns out windows 11 automatically puts a bitlocker on your drive, a bitlocker that, for some reason, was not connected to the account I registered when I got that computer.
Shit is lost, things suck. Good thing is that all of the work for Chapter 1 was saved to an external hard drive. A lot of the work for chapter 2 is lost, and this includes musical setups and the beginning of future songs, which may be the biggest loss.
Going forward, as I am buying a new computer, this will be the focus:
1: Set up the musical tools need to go forward again, this is harder than it sounds.
2: Get cloudsaving.
3: Work on commision music to build up future funding to work on DOJD.
4: Instead of crying about the lost chapter 2 progress, focus on chapter 1 and make it steam-presentable.
I had originally planned to launch chapter 1 on steam after this summer but I got sucked into working on chapter 2 stuff. The urge to work on new things is strong. As I am forced to redo a lot of work regardless, I will be looking backward, to look forward.
May also be a small collab-game in the making.
