Chapter 5.2 very soon!

Hello everyone <3

Thank you for your patience with me finishing my master thesis πŸ˜† It was a lot, but it is finally behind meβ€”

AND BEFORE YOU ISβ€”

CH 5.2! βœ¨

I'll drop the chapter within 24-48 hours from now,

And as the Patreon seems to be automatically unpausing at this time (? I genuinely find the system really confusing, it seems to be on my end...

I'm pausing the Patreon for a month

🫠 I am genuinely so close to finishing the chapter. But with finishing my master thesis, and job hunting and networking... I simply didn't find the combination of time and energy to finish the suit coding and the polishing.

I hope for better luck next month, and I won't be unpausing it until I post the update 🫑

I love ya, and I appreciate y'all's patience.

πŸ₯Ήβ€οΈ Take care

Beta officially started

I DM'd a beta version to one of my betas <3

(I haven't sent it to the full beta group yet, mostly because the suit dress-up part isn't done yet, and only some of them could play it then. I plan to send it to them a few days before I send it to you all so me and the betas can first locate the giant bugs and text errors <3)

Ok. So.

We are in the home stretch, and I feel comfortable saying this nowβ€”

Q&A starting soon!

In a little under 10 minutes I'll begin a Q&A on Discord (where I'll be as open as I can while answering questions I would not normally answer publically.) 

If you can't attend, you can send me questions:

- Here on Patreon as a comment on this post.

I will try to format it into a PDF and post it here too! ❀️

XOXO,

Writing weekend

Omg, y'all don't know how much Victorian fashion I've read and written about this weekend...
I decided to change some stuff up with the system because of some feedback, and I think it's shaping up well. It's a lot, though... (in a good way imo!)

Once it's fully done, I would like to give y'all the opportunity to add one or two additional unique costumes, but we will do that when get there.

But anyway, I just wanted to...

The Q&A pdf and an update

Q&A:

First of did... a while back on Discord... I tried to format this thing in a good way on three separate occasions, but... OMG, IT'S JUST IMPOSSIBLE! The discord formatting makes everything weird and, just generally awful. And then, if I wanted to keep any context of some questions, I needed to have the comments and who said what andβ€”to make a longer thing short: THE PDF IS JUST A STRAIGHT-UP COPY PAS...

G Lestrade β€” Journal . 1

I have this (good and bad) habit of following inspiration.

Yesterday, I got to thinking because of a Tumblr ask about making some more L POV stuff. Especially around the time of ch5.

Here is the fruit of that labour ->

Love ya! 

(I'm still plonking away at ch5. Last week, I was a bit out of commission, but my head feels more on right this week. Anyway, take care y'all <3 )

Where to end ch5.2

So, I just did the alpha test (it went well! She liked it! <3 )

But what we couldn't decide on was where to cut off the chapter, so I'm putting it in your handsβ€”

(However, I retain the ability to change the option if something unforeseen comes up!)

I'll keep it up for the weekend unless it's a landslide. The original idea was to end it at option 1, but I had the idea a little whil...

Ch5.2 has reached alpha stage! πŸ’–

πŸ₯ΉπŸ’– It was a lot of work (mostly because I had a hard time tearing myself away from writing either the ball or working on my master thesis), but it's really shaping up now!

I have a time booked with my alpha reader on Thursday, where we will go over it and find what to change, what works, etc. But I'm just really happy I was able to deliver some kind of good news to y'all on this day πŸ₯°

A holiday experiment

For some reason, I decided the fun thing to do would be to make a short choose-your-own-adventure story for Christmas (and I know what you're thinking, but Doriana, you already make those but more functional. Yes, yes, I do. But I got it in my head that making it more like a book would be more unique and fun... which was... a debatable hypothesis.)

Anyway, here it isβ€”(I might update the PDF with time; I'm currently a little s...

Christmas/holiday ideas?

Hi hi ❀️

I had to scrap a Christmas/holiday thing I was working on, so I thought I'd ask what type of stuff y'all would like to see instead for the holidays. Does anyone have any ideas? β˜ƒοΈ

Take care, ❀️

Ps. I've been following my inspiration and writing ball chapter romance scenes πŸ₯° I think yall will like them πŸ˜‹

Lestrade Minigame / interactive prompt

This is an interactive addition and continuation of the long-since-written "Lestrade fakeout makeout" post from Tumblr. It's almost 5k words but shorter per play-through.

Update for the week

I just realised I didn’t do one of these!

I’m working on ch 5 part two, the dress up system for the ball and the collection of smaller scenes the chapter has. But I’m at a the same time working on ch 6 (the ball) cause they are quite connected, and that is what currently feels right πŸ˜†βœ¨

Weekly update

This week is the last week for my current courses, and then I’ll have more time to spend on the game and Patreon again ❀️

I’m almost thereβ€”I have to polish up a report, code a thing, and write a short reflection, and then I’ll work on something fun for Halloween πŸ˜™βœ¨ (I’m still a little bit unsure when Halloween actually is, but like, sometime next week or smth πŸ˜†).

Chapter 5 (part 1)

Chapter 5 is out now!

- Talk to Watson about this new case ✨

- Meet Lestrade again πŸ₯€

I'm going to start calling it Chapter 5, part 1, though, because it's not very long (19k), and I think it will make more sense together with (the formerly ch6 now) Chapter 5, part 2, as both are about preparing for the ball.

(So the ball will now be ch 6!) View Post
