The Cat Distribution System - Devlog 1


THE CAT DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM - NARRATIVE ASSIGNMENT:

Devlog 1:

09/03/2025 - The project was assigned; create a short narrative game. This day, I spent most of the time brainstorming my idea. I had decided to go with a game where you take care of a cat that randomly shows up in your apartment, with the choices you make leading to different endings. Inspirations were Uma Musume: Pretty Derby, and a game I created a few years back called The Last Thursday. I additionally did very loose brainstorming in MS Paint.

09/07/2025 - This day was spent planning my script. I wrote out the exact text I would use, and when game choices would occur. This would make putting it in Twine easier, as I would just have to copy and paste the text. I did not write the endings themselves that day, but I did plan out how many endings there would be, how you'd achieve each ending, and what each ending would be called.

09/10/25 - This day I began putting things into Twine. It was slower than I had liked, but that was mainly due to having to learn how Twine worked. Coming from a coding background, the macros and html were a bit difficult to get used to. I managed to finish the structure from the prologue, to the end of day 1.
