Hello guys, 

Development of Chapter 13 is progressing steadily. I’m currently working on the final scenes, tying together the emotional arcs and the consequences of earlier decisions. 

As always, I'm paying close attention to dialogue and character consistency, especially with the branching paths that have started to diverge more noticeably. 

To keep my creative energy up, I’ve decided to take a short break — just a few days to recharge and gain some fresh perspective before jumping into the polishing phase. Sometimes stepping back briefly helps me return with sharper focus and new ideas for refining scenes and transitions. Once I’m back, I’ll begin final testing and rendering for the release candidate. 

So if everything goes as planned, you can expect some exciting news soon regarding a release window. 

Thanks again for your patience and support — and as always, feel free to reach out or drop feedback. 

Take care, MCK
