Intertwined Newsletter 9/3/23


Hello All,

Cannot remember the last time I wrote one of these. I have a bad habit of just keeping my snout down and doing my work that I solely lack much ability to actually market or speak during the parts between the game updates. Nonetheless, this is something different and something that has been on my mind for a while now as I continue to progress this story.

Intertwined has, is, and will always be a highlight of my life. This is a story crafted from years and years of thoughts, dreams, passions, and so much more. I cannot put into words just how much this means to me. The issue at hand is just that. I have spent years crafting the story and world of Intertwined that while writing the Visual Novel, I made so many mistakes in writing that make it come off as cringy or boring. Intertwined is designed as an extremely slow burn VN. It spans a long length of time and follows so many characters and each day of their lives at the moment that I have noticed some parts have become stale and just un-interesting. I expect as much while going through the different chapters, but it was not my intention or my goal to make a boring story.

A lot of my inspiration comes from anime and books of the like which of course can come off poorly while converting it to writing or even a visual novel. That being said, I have spent several years now working on Intertwined and everything that makes it up and I will continue to do so. I have made some poor decisions with this game which is probably why it has never been a big hit, but the point is not to become super popular but to tell a story.

I am thinking of postponing the next update for a little so I can go back and do some much needed tweaks to the earlier parts. This is NOT a rewrite of the game. This is simply going back to the older pieces and changing up the wording, tweaking some of the parts to not sound super cringey and also removing redundant parts that are not relevant or pertinent to the story and its progression.

Intertwined will continue on for those who enjoy and want to see the story. I just need to also make sure that the story is being told at the best that it can be. So please bare with me, I will try not to spend too much time on the tweaks. 

Thank you for those who continue to support this game. It really means a lot to me.
