60 completed locations, now, with a 4144 average code length for each location. The total code is just shy of a quarter meg.

I'm on the tail end of the coding stage of the middle third of the game. To complete this section, I've got ten more locations to write (only two of which are big ones, unlike most of my recent work, which were nearly all big locations) and I need to add small chunks of code to three others.

The last third of the game, unfortunately, I've barely even designed. I have ideas, but not much mapped out. It should only take a couple of good days of work to do that, but it's a big step as yet undone. Nevertheless, I'm still on my most recent "roll," which, again, is more momentum than I've ever had on the project thus far, so I'm in good shape. I love writing this thing; I just wish it didn't take so long. Had I expended the same amount of effort on writing "Humor Bites" I could have had about twenty of them by now.
