Hello future curators! Art maker here. Since our last update I've been working mostly on furniture and house interior customization, with a little bit of UI on the side to finish up all the pieces we're still missing.

changedArt maker here. Since our last update I've been working mostly on furniture and house interior customization, with a little bit of UI on the side to finish up all the pieces we're still missing. My focus has mostly been on walls, floors, kitchens, bathrooms, and different styles of basic furniture pieces like beds, couches, tables, etc. There is still a ton more to do as I haven't stepped too far into miscellaneous household items yet, but we'll get there!
changedThat's 35 intros. Our longest one is about 915 lines with 124 player dialogue options. I know that sounds like a lot, but that's about 7 lines per player choice. Obviously it's a lot of work to make a conversation like that but a lot of the time spent was in figuring out the specifics of NPC characterization so I can be faster going forward. Now that I know them all and have dialogue to lean on to make sure I'm keeping them consistent and (hopefully) unique, things should move along smoothly.
changedBut for now, we'll be turning our attention to finishing up some UI pieces and fixing some little bugs that cropped up while I was writing from patching little bits together. Then it'll be testing time for people who aren't us for the first time. A few close friends and trusted confidants. Progress is good though. I'll get things cleaned up. We're going to start getting finalized-ish (we hope) UI put into place. Then, it'll probably be main story planning and writing. I think that's the whole kit. Possibly the caboodle as well. It's gettin' there!

Below are a few examples of how you'll be able to customize your house. My goal is to have a wide variety of styles to hopefully suit most people's tastes.
And now a word from coderman!
