Meet Professor McGregor / Update (Patreon)

Hey everyone! I wanted to showoff the character design I have for your professor Astrophysics freshman seminar. He'll be one of ten(!) new characters I have for the next release. I'll be releasing the designs for new characters as I create them.

As for other updates: I've completed scripting/coding the entire first day (1 of 7 for this upcoming release) Not all days will have the same length. I know, based off of my completed outline for the week that Friday and Saturday will be particularly hefty, because of the number of paths I have to consider, as well as the number of scenes. 

I'm feeling good though, definitely have good spirits and momentum on my side. My biggest hang up in the last week was untangling and coding the logic for anyone who chose to interact with Bryce in certain ways in the demo. 

I hadn't realized it at the time, but I kind of wrote myself into a corner by giving the player so many options. I didn't want to go back and simplify the choices though, so I found a work around that still considered what you decided to do, and not do. 

I totally understand now though why so many games limit user input. Its a lot to keep track of, but I'm learning as I go, and I'm tracking as much as I can in my notes to deliver a cohesive story that makes sense, and is engaging while also holds impact with every decision you make. 

I'm so excited to share more characters with you as they are created!
