so the short answer is i'm not sure. The beginning part of the story was going to take a lot longer. there was a lot more work during the early parts of the story and then gradually less work as the story progresses. however, then i've learned more skills in the process so i ended up adding more things like animations and stuff like that. as of right now, i'm probably about halfway through it so maybe another year give or take.
in terms of plans after that, i'm not sure. i didn't plan a lot of this and sorta let it write itself. however, i dont multitask well so i really only want to focus on one thing at a time. but as a near the end of this, i'm expecting the workload to drop more which will leave time to start looking towards the future. i have a folder with some ideas in it
