LKJAFLDSKFASDLF IT DOES FEEL LIKE A LOT IG. It could be because I tried to squeeze as much as I could into shorter texting-format phrases. Also there are some places where I use variables for repeated/looped parts, which helped a bit, too. I painstakingly kept track of the words in a Gdoc as I was going and had to keep editing down some parts or deleting the extraneous word here and there so I could expand on other parts that felt like they needed more weight alkdjfad The forced pauses also make things feel a bit longer in general perhaps,,, 🤔
"I can def tell this is a self-indulgent project" --> ALSO BECAUSE IT'S JUST PURE GENZY FLUFF LAKDSJFALSKDFA But thank you tho ahhhhhh,,, I used a template for the base messaging system, but kept adding more to it because I wanted to make it feel more realistic to the point that there's like 4-5 different things happening on the screen that you can't even see but that are happening behind the scenes LOL I-it required a lot of troubleshooting lfakdjfa
"Because im so used to seeing things from Iggy's POV so taking on the role of Genzou somehow feels enlightening???" --> LOL IT'S TRUE. This is the first time I've ever done something in a different POV than Iggy's (or third-person), so I did wonder how people would take to it. I thought it would be kinda fun and cute though kinda spinning things around,,, 🥺💕
"also I really like the ending scene!!" --> HHH THANK YOU. I had hoped it would be a sufficient little "yay!" moment for people for getting to the end ldkajflskdf and of course not at all just me being even more self-indulgent and wanting to make a very cute and sweet scene that fits my exact aesthetic alkdjfasld I-I'm glad you enjoyed it 😭
Thank you so much for playing ahhhh this comment made me smile a lot and I loved hearing your thoughts!! Oh, and that's great!!! I had indeed been a bit nervous about whether or not it would work well or there could be glitches, but it at least seem to be working for most people, so that's good hahaha 🤣 Thank you again!!! 💕
