I've been hard at work the last few days plowing through the first day's paths.

I've completed the 'at work' portion of the day, and while I want to say that's 50% of the scenes, I'm not sure that's true with as much stuff as I want to try to do during the 'at home' portion of the day.

I've also started building out a stat system linked to player choices during the game that I can hopefully figure out how to use as the story progresses to change paths and options.

I also technically have the game's first Ending completed. Depending on some early choices it's possible to hit the first Bad End from a couple paths.

I've also done some work for sound design, its rudimentary currently. I will need to refine and replace some of the music and sound before I finalize the demo but I have lots of immersive sounds for certain scenes, and will try to keep that going as I progress. I've had a lot more fun with that than I expected, considering I usually play VNs on mute with my own music going. Everything about the process so far has been a delightful challenge, and I'm really glad I finally pulled the trigger on this project. I'm also starting to work up my itchio page, and am going to try and post some updates there as well as here and bsky.
