Hey everybody.

I will be sending this journal entry via email simultaneously. If you receive the email, you are good to go and will receive the email updates until Leaving DNA is complete even if you contribute no more money. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, please see this link. If you don't receive the email, either you have not yet contributed $18 or I don't have your information correct, in which case you need to DM me to sort it out.

This week I worked on yet another bar scene. Some of my bar scenes in the past have been pretty long as those scenes were used to introduce new characters or themes to the player. However, at this point in the story we've gotten to know the important characters pretty well and a big, long "hanging out" scene risks slowing down momentum for a plot that's getting progressively heavier. So even if the characters might be sharing some lighthearted times together, I have to be careful about letting the player relax too much. After all, no one is playing Leaving DNA to have a good time, right?

That's all for this week. Thanks for your support!
