Update 10/25

A bit late, but done... sort of.

Action-complete turned out to be less useful than I originally thought.  Dialog plays a lot bigger part in what happens and subsequent actions than I realized.  I found it easier to just work on the dialog than write down what the dialog would be about in notes and guess at appropriate responses for branching.  So I decided to change Goal 2 from action complete to saying first part is playable.  Pictures and descriptions still need to be done

Linking the chapters should be done.  I do need to complete the rework for the in-between mission work (e.g. using the computer to find out who's Smirnov).  This part went through a couple reworks already and as I was coding in the latest re-design, it wasn't fleshing out the way I'd like.  I'm tempted to just do it anyways so I don't have to bother with it any more.

All in all though, setting the goals like this worked out nicely.  I'm actually surprised at how accurate 7 hours was for the goals I set.

New Goals:
Goal 1: Work 4 hours.  Things happening in personal life this week.  So I won't have as much free time as last week.
Goal 2: Complete alternate path in second part
Goal 3: Decide on what to do for in-between work.
