I might make it a different game for the christmas game, since the goblin game kind of turned a dark turn. It is short, so will probably still just release it this month, but I also want something more light hearted for christmas.

Hmm
Since I am taking it easy on the holidays, I decide to work on a fun little game I just had an idea for early today. It is going to be a short game, about a world where goblins turn elf girls into goblins to reproduce and as a female elf you need to try to avoid that! It is kind of a silly little game, with a lot of kinky fun, so it should be good for the holidays.
Stuff
So I am basically taking this month off for the holidays, but while I am, I am still working on stuff basically everyday behind the scenes. There just isn’t any big projects or goals going on. I might do a Christmas game, and I have a few ideas for it, though I have not decided on what to do yet.
Update
I updated the ending numbers for the last game, since there was some ending numbers that were repeated. It should all be correct now. There are 18 endings, 3 true endings, and a golden ending. So 22 total.
Game Finished!
I went and did a couple more bad endings but I am just not feeling it too much. The game is just a little shy of the 50k mark but it is close enough. I will put the extra words for my goal into another side project I am working on, so I will still have the 50k words written this month.
I hope everyone enjoys the game! I think I might try this again, to help improve how many games I can pump out!
Also, since someone asked for it:
Update!
So I have ‘finished’ the game, and uploaded it. You should be able to get to the ending no matter which way you go, including the final golden ending.
Right now it is roughly 45k words and I got the rest of today, and 3 more full days of work left. My plan is to hit the 50k word goal by the end of the month, and there should be no problem doing so. So I will be adding some more bad endings to fill that out. Expect the final final update to be up some time Wednesday night.
Lessons
So I learned a few things from writing every single day and keeping track of my progress.
- I can get a 1000 words written everyday no matter what, without much difficulty. Even if I was sick, or super busy, I can get that much done. Even if I really don’t feel like writing, I can brute force myself through 1000 words.
- I can pretty comfortably get 1500 every day. Typically I can’t do that all at once, and break it up into two smaller sessions. While I do that I was able to also do others things I wanted to get done as well. I even took some time to write some on other projects, while doing the main project. So 1500 is doable everyday for an average pace.
- I can write a lot more than that, if I am motivated and I have clear goals. I already sort of knew that though, that I slow down when things get too complex and there is branches all over and it is hard to determine where to go with everything.
Hmm
So I am on the final branch and I have seven days left. I am fairly confident I am going to finish early. I am sort of debating what to do with the extra time. If I should extend the branch even further and make it the ‘main’ path? Or maybe work on adding bad endings in places?
Bug fix
There was a bug blocking the ending for the new path I updated yesterday, and I fixed that. So now you should actually be able to get to the end of that path.
That is the first time I ever seen that bug in twine, where I had two passages with the same name, which it doesn’t allow you to create normally but some how it did. Everything showed it going to the correct passage but then it was teleporting to the other with the same name.
Another update!
I finished the second path, which is the one that goes along with the last update. If you don’t become an AI and support the dolls, you will lead down that path.
