Behind the Scenes Writing: Episode 5, Scene 1 (Patreon)

We'll be slowly rolling out these behind the scenes for the writing scripts this month, starting with scene 1 and moving along! ^^ The main purpose of these is to showcase just how the new content is coming along in the writing scripts, but we'll also have behind the scenes previews this month spread out that focus more on the visual view of these scenes in the engine being played itself!

Without further rambling! You can view the writing script in the notepad attachment below this post! ^^ (We've opted to share notepad files of the script, but let us know if you preferred google document script previews instead or would suggest a different method.)

[This section is for those that want a little more deep dive into the writing process and thoughts.]

Like previous episodes before it, each episode kicks off with a slow starting scene to ease you into the new episode, get a general feel for where and what's going on this episode. :P

We begin episode 5 right off the bat in the middle of what seems to be a situation where Joey and Nathan are having a interaction, realizing that Joey is pretty hyped about something. It'd turn out this hype is due to the fact, that the guys have been given the green light to officially join a club at the school!

Naturally the guys are excited and that's pretty much the main idea with the first scene is to setup the theme of episode 5 being focused around being introduced to a range of different clubs that Brandon might be interested in joining. Of course... He might need some guidance on which club to join in the end, deciding just who he spends more time with while attending the school and forming a closer bond with them. :P

With episode 5, one goal we had was to try and include more choices and gameplay that'd be a bit more fun to interact with as a player. We realized in earlier episodes, the pacing of choices vs reading a mega ton of text felt pretty meh. <.< So, we're trying to offer more enjoyment to break up all the text reading, overall making your experience feel better paced out as there's got to be nice rewarding moments every so often, without feeling like "Okay.. When's something major going to happen?" ^^"
