Hi everyone!
Back with another devlog update now that I've really begun work on the Winter DLC I'll be releasing for the game. As we come up on the last couple of days for the challenge, there is absolutely no way I'll be able to finish scripting and coding for this portion of the game, but I hadn't really anticipated I would anyways, since my main focus was on the official Chapter 1 Release of my game :) With that being said, I've still definitely been putting in some work into this DLC since the Winter VN Jam is still coming up, and I want to release something for the holidays.
This past week, I finished the rest of the necessary sprites for the Winter DLC 

As you can see, these are just winter versions of the main sprites. Aside from this, I've spent the recent half of the week working on the script for the game. At this point in time, I've finished the script for three of the routes, leaving four that I still have to script. These routes have been around 2k-2.5k words in length. Since there will be 6 routes, I anticipate it'll be a final total word count of 12k-15k words. Since this is just DLC for the main game to celebrate the holidays, I think that's a pretty good length and realistic given the timeframe! I'm hoping to finish the script by the end of this week/ early next week so that I can begin work on CG art next week. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the progress so far and feel like I've been sticking to my schedule much better than I thought I would considering the holidays and a lot of external responsibilities that I have to balance on top of game development around this time :') This will probably be my last devlog since the challenge is coming to a close, but I'll be sure to release a final post-mortem post at the end of everything :D
