Dev Release — Chapter 2 Status Update
Hey there, loyal Doll-Players!
Time for a status drop on Chapter 2 and where things stand behind the curtain.
Short version:
All the scenes are written (and rewritten...and rewritten again), the renders are complete, and the chapter is fully playable end-to-end. Now we're in the refining stage.
Long version (the good stuff):
Chapter 2 turns the screws on everyone in the house. Threats—real, imagined, and interstellar—start closing in from every direction, and nobody escapes unscathed. Here's a taste of what you can expect in the next release:
* Maxine hits her breaking point. Pressures that have been simmering finally push her into making a choice that ripples through the entire household.
* Jill's suspicion finally boils over. Her patience runs out, and she goes head-to-head with Luthor in a confrontation that's been building since Chapter 1.
* Zeebo comes clean. He lays bare his true origin, his fugitive status, and why an entire Galactic Authority wants him in chains, or worse
(sincere apologies in advance to any Kardashian fans...you'll understand when you get there. Sorry not sorry).
* Interstellar law enforcement takes notice. Three members of a cosmic policing agency zero in on the Terran system—with wildly different agendas and even more unpredictable consequences.
* And Luthor's teacher appears. She's convinced what this household needs is discipline—only to discover she may have severely misjudged the situation...at her own peril.
What's left to do?
A handful of important but less glamorous items:
- Adding music and sound FX
- Quality-of-life improvements
- Finalizing a scalable Quest Tracker that actually works the way it should
As for a release date:
Not giving one. I've missed enough dates to know better than to set myself up again. Just know this:
I'm working as diligently as I can. Your patience, encouragement, and enthusiasm mean everything. Keep the faith, fans. Chapter 2 is getting close.
