Back from vacation! (Patreon)

Hey everyone! So... The consensus from the poll last week was that I should just update more often and keep you all informed on progress. So I'm going to do that! I'm going to try something new and update more free-flow so the updates have a bit more personality and length instead of being all businesslike. It should be more fun that way, right?

Last week was the 4th of July, and I went out of town to visit family. It was a lot of fun and good to get away from work, but being away meant I didn't have the development environment for Housewife Sim and didn't make any forward progress there.

With that in mind, I did have my tablet, and a LOT of downtime. I wrote a lot of the story for Burger Blast with that downtime. The premise I shared from before in the poll was "This is a short game I started when I was really drunk about a couple who work at a fast food joint. The story is terrible and full of memes, the couple is trashy, and the entire premise comical - the girlfriend wants you to fatten her up enough that she doesn't have to work anymore and can take disability. It should be pretty quick to release."

I stuck to that premise and had a lot of fun with it so far. Burger Blast's story, gameplay, and length will be similar to Overstuffed but there's a goofy minigame in there too. I have 5 of the 7 story segments written, so I need to do the last two, then need to convert my story to code, make graphics and sound and stuff, then debug. Lots of times the story is what takes the longest because of creative blocks and wanting to get things perfect, so the game is pretty far along already!

Burger Blast's on pause now and it's time to deep dive back into Housewife Sim. Now that I've done an update for the week, I'm going to get back to writing story for Chapter 3.

Thanks again for all your support and I'll be back for another update soon!
