I always see Nancy really high up on everyone's lists and I don't get it? I mean I get the older woman/was babysitter thing, but that's normally like 12 year old having a crush on a 17 year old babysitter or something.

Orion left Kredon at 8 years old, meaning in the babysitting flashback he would have been a maximum of 8 and Nancy would have been nearly 30. I mean I get it's a game and who gives a shit ultimately, but theoretically, doesn't that make Nancy a bit creepy?

This... kinda undersells her achievement. She's not just a figurehead empress of the WRE, we've since learned that she's very much involved in the day to day of managing her empire, self studying various topics such as economics and sea navigation all so she can do better..
This on top of her 9-5 work and managing the household.

The code is pretty dense, no spaces, so I think we can divide by 2 and get an approximate number of lines of dialogue.

Wow, that is really compact. I'm the complete opposite. Every single change of camera angle or change of speaker is double spaced and I have comments everywhere for sound cues to implement.

Python: 
 scene indicators
    ""

    #The following requires the sound of fingers drumming on a hard surface, and the three 
    #images must be repeated twice in a dissolve
    
scene fingerDrum with dissolve
    ""

    #keep the drumming sound for the next loop of two images

    scene lookingAtKieron
    ""

    scene 001031 with dissolve
    gr "This will be an easy one, big house out of the city - just like mum and dad. 
    There'll be plenty to take if he's gone and pissed the money away."

    scene 001033
    mc "I look worried?"

    scene 001031
    gr "You never look worried, but I see your little finger taps, and I know you're 
    not nice and settled."

    #Another dissolve animation required for this nod of the head
    scene kieronNodScene1
    ""

    scene 001031
    gr "You can bail. It might even do more harm than good if you're not committed 
    to having my back."

    menu grant_option01:
        "I'm always commited to that.":
            scene 001036 with dissolve
            gr "And I'd never doubt it, my lanky friend."
        "Depends how annoying you've been.":
            scene 001037 with dissolve
            gr "That hurts my soul, Yaya."
With that: 3387 lines of code is about 45 mins of play, so we're looking at quite a bit if Caribdis works so compactly and with no comments.

I dreamed about Eternum wednesday. You're not alone.
There should be the release date collage today. I'm going to check the Discord every hour.

Oh, every developer has their own style when it comes to writing code. And while I have nothing against a dense code like Caribdis, sometimes reading the comments is more interesting than the game itself! But this game is definitely not one of them.

I've always wondered how the game time is calculated. Is there an unwritten standard for how long it takes to read a certain number of words, or is it determined by a test run?

Test runs.

But they're not exact because, as the author, you know what's coming so it is hard to establish how long a person might look at a new render, on top of the time it might take them to read the dialogue.

Add to all that, she's openly excited about the possibility of a three-or-more some, possibly involving her hot daughters.

Other option is Caribdis removes unneeded white space on release. I can't imagine that he finds 1 easier to read than 2. But hey he is Spanish (or so I've heard).
