What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

So, yesterday, I was worried about the interactive Prometheus story not working out, because Zeus is too much of a terrible rapist and all around asshole. I talked about it with Joel and with another friend, and they had good points about that perhaps not being the thing I should work on now. However, my friend suggested that I try a different myth to start out, and I really like this idea. I'm going to go with Perseus's adventures. I conveniently have Clash of the Titans (from 1981) to help me remember that no one else follows history exactly. Also, it has the right level of cheesy (a lot). I'm having a great time coming up with the characters that I'll use. Andromeda will definitely be black and will be male or female depending on the player's preference. I really love the idea of a male Andromedeus being so pretty that his mom brags about it to the point that the sea nymphs get pissed off and Poseidon steps in. I've figured out how to get Andromeda/Andromedeus more involved (rather than just getting married right at the end). I think that it would be fun to have different characters that can participate in the adventure depending on who you recruit. I'll have to see how that works out. Also, while I am not usually a fan of Joseph Campbell's hero's journey, I think that it might be just the thing in this context. Joel has also pointed out that Assassin's Creed: Odyssey has an exploration/education mode that will allow me to explore the Greek islands, so when I am writing, I can get a better view of what things are like. Yay!

Other than focusing a lot on writing, I worked a bit on web development again today. If I'm going to make a bra, I need to get on that, since there isn't all that much time to do it before we leave.

Did I mention that we got our residency cards? This means that returning to Portugal will be easier. Phew!
