🕑 Added 2022-07-26 09:19:03 +0000 UTCAnd there you have it! Chapter 5 was the longest update The Arson Betrayal has ever had.
With the conclusion of Act I, I'll be announcing in this Dev. Log what to expect in the upcoming months of development.
First off, the reworking of some scenes of the earlier chapters. Aside from improved visuals, I'll be revamping the dialogue a little bit, and maybe adding a scene or two as well. I've been thrown off by how the earlier chapters were inconsistent regarding the writing, and the scenes were... awful. Some characters were too shiny, and some scenes were too dark. I'm not claiming to be an expert, but I've certainly improved in creating better 'dark' scenes and better lighting. So expect a rework to be released anytime this August (probably before the month ends).
Next, we have the Interlude for Act II. I've mentioned previously that it'll be a short side-story and based on my current planning phase, it'll be as short as Chapter 1, in regards to length. I won't spoil too much about it, but it'll tie up a few questions about the plot before we move further into the story, and it'll introduce a character that I hope you'll all come to love.
It'll be a separate game, and it might be connected to The Arson Betrayal itself, but it's certainly something you can miss out on and you probably won't miss anything out. What will the story be about?
"Set 48 hours before the events of The Arson Betrayal, you'll be in the shoes of Doctor Ward, a newly-assigned assistant researcher in Ablesmith's Institute of Health and Experimental Medicine. Reunited with an old friend and working closely with a handful of colleagues, you'll be part of the most ambitious experiment in history."
Seems we'll have a short-haired waifu, huh?
Lastly, regarding the first chapter of Act II, development usually takes three (3) to four (4) months.
The update would probably be released somewhere in October, more or less.
I guess that's about it for now. I hope you all enjoyed (or will enjoy) the update and I'll see you on the next Dev. Log.
Cheers.
