This week was spent talking to myself. I did work very hard on a sneaking section of the game, but I suddenly had this lack of motivation. It occurred to me that the sneaking part was just not interesting, which was why I suddenly wasn't driven to move on.

I abandoned it and wrote a new section in Act 2 where Edda has to get to the jail to speak to the man who broke into her hut. What is his problem? Why her hut? Why was he going through her things? She can't help but be curious.

I also finalised a lot of personalities for characters now. So many were just "blah blah here's a hint; get this for me; hello, how are you". All very vanilla and similar. Now there are nice people, arses, and some in between who you can't quite peg down right now.

It also helped me - I drew a lot of characters this week, and I think knowing their personalities informed that.

Anyway, here is a shot from the very first scene in the game. Such a jolly group.
