Hello and happy weekend once again my fellow starship captains! I have a lot to do this weekend, so we'll keep this short and to the point, just a quick update to let you know where I am and to keep you in the loop.

I've been pressing right along with writing/coding, currently well into scene 5 of... I still don't know how many scenes there will be, sorry! If I had to guess, I'd just throw '20' out there. It's a big ass update so I could be overestimating a bit there.

I'm considering adding episode images at the beginning of each episode (similar to the image of Dezzy I posted in devlog 1). I think it would be a neat little extra plus something graphic that sort of distinguishes the end of one episode and beginning of the next.

I also really want to add an episode selection screen. But this one is tricky because if a person who has never played decides to jump right into episode 2, or 4, or whatever, they will not have defined the variables for their own name, which would default to 'Mike' or 'pet'. Yes, there are plenty of ways around that but trying to avoid anything too complicated. I may do it in a way that forces you to have at least played episode 1 or add a quick question when you hit 'play' on an episode asking if you need to rename your character or your chosen word for 'pet'. I'll toy with a few ideas and see if I like it or not. I don't know if that will make it into this update because I have enough work to do for that already. But definitely on my list of features to add. Meanwhile, you're welcome to offer up your thoughts or preferences on that.

That's all I have right now. Thanks for your messages in DM's and comments on posts, and your support - all appreciated! Now let's go enjoy the weekend, love you all, ...Fire
