Devlog 49: LockOWriMo
Writing continues on File 04.

Here's what I worked on since the last devlog.
- Finished Chapter 17
- Finished Chapter 18
- Started writing Chapter 19
I'm still hard at work writing File 04! I always assume it will be easier than it is but it's started to go more smoothly, and I'm having more fun the more I write it. I wanted to be able to release it this year, however, it's just too late for that I think. The Steam holiday sales that happen around the end of the year are just a really bad time to release something. However, I am doing my best to ensure that the final three files take less time to complete overall.
Until next time!
LockedOn.
