7th Day current status


Greetings, everyone!

It's been three weeks since we rolled out the update with the sixth day, and I figured it's time to talk about the current state of the development of day 7. As expected, this day is shaping up to be a real challenge. It's going to be chock-full of text, images, decisions, and, in general, the consequences of many of the choices you made in the previous days.

Right now, I've completed the morning and afternoon sections of the seventh day, and I've just dipped my toes into what's going to be the grand finale of the game – the night. With what I've got written for this day so far, I can already count a total of 3200 lines of text, and I haven't even scratched the surface of the first narrative events of the last night.

To give you an idea, I'll share the line counts for each of the chapters up to this point:

Day 1: 3640

Day 2: 1520

Day 3: 3400

Day 4: 1900

Day 5: 3300

Day 6: 3690

Day 7: 3200

As you can see, just a portion of the seventh day almost matches the entire text of any previous day. So, it's very likely that the final day will easily double the text compared to any other day.



Naturally, all this text comes hand in hand with new CGs. Some of them are already done, but there's still a lot of work ahead on that front.

And as if that's not enough, new characters are, of course, in the cards. We'll finally unveil the identity of the Prophet, and we'll find out if the ritual to summon Cthulhu will actually take place. Depending on the path you choose, you'll also delve into the protagonist's past and discover how they ended up in the city.

I foresee that this day will require quite a bit of effort. Considering that my real-life work is going to be particularly demanding for the next two or three weeks, I'm not sure how much time I can dedicate to the game. Nevertheless, I'll strive to keep the development going.

I briefly considered the possibility of releasing an update with what I have so far, but honestly, I think it might disrupt the narrative flow of the seventh day. So, without a doubt, I'm going to wait until it's all ready so you can fully savor the climax of the game.

That's about it for now. I'll leave you with one of the new images you'll come across during this seventh day. I hope you like it.

Once again, I urge you to leave your comments, as they are what keeps me motivated.

Warm regards,
