Weekly dev blog: Dance With The (Were)wolves Vol. 2
🕑 Added 2023-09-18 15:10:08 +0000 UTCHopefully I am not recycling the title for this post, it sounds strangely familiar. XD
Anyway, as I anticipated last time, I worked mostly on the last "puzzle/challenge" on the werewolf path. I decided that Erica won't get to become the Alpha immediately, but instead she will earn the right to train under our current Alpha tutelage (it just didn't make sense for her to be stronger than him). The challenge will still test her intelligence and battle sense, however! It took me a while, but I thought of an interesting idea for the combat part. Balancing it has been fun, but I hope to give players a few more choices before I am finished.
We should also get a conversation after the battle, as part of the "intelligence test", where you discuss what you learned. If you satisfy Jiro, he'll allow you to guide the pack in his place every now and then, plus I think you'll earn a permanent bonus for a more pragmatic reward.
I did some writing for the werewolf path (as you would expect) and some more writing to tie up the new "orc village" scene nicely as well as lead to the finale for that path as well, but figuring out and testing the new werewolf challenge took the bulk of my time. I should be able to wrap that up soon, and then I'll see if I can maybe add a new way to end up in the orc village as Ginnuk's wife, since this was in my plans for a while (better than having to fail the quest just to see this bit of content, at least). New scenes might be in the cards as well, depending on how much time I have left.
This should be it, as they say. Make sure to remind me if I am forgetting anything. The new release should happen next monday, if everything goes according to plan, so look forward to it. ^_^
