[PROGRESS REPORT] The Season 1 Rework is Done

So um... Surprise.

I ended up blasting through Chapters 1 through 6 last night and setting everything up for WCA to be combined into one game. Got all the choices and rewritten content in, though the story hasn't changed much. All of the sex scenes are now skippable, but there IS some unavo...

[PROGRESS REPORT] An Interesting Spread of Data

Hey all!

You may recall that I did a poll recently. Well, I did 3. One on SubscribeStar, one on Patreon, and one in the Discord just to see how things would shake up. And wouldn't you know it, the data I got had some interesting nuance to it. Let's start with SubscribeStar.

[POLL/PROGRESS REPORT] An Epic Save/ Rewrite Questions

Earlier, I made a post about a deprecated shader, and how it may have taken a character out of the game's roster because, without the shader, her skin wouldn't look right.

Well, I am pleased to announce that Nemlyn will not be going anywhere, thanks to an epic save by Necro. On heari...

[PROGRESS REPORT] End of Hell + New Promo Pack

Hoo. April was one hell of a month, and it ended with a week of 9-5 training sessions. So I was back and forth between daytime training and overnight security shifts. Heck, just this Friday, I worked a total of 16 hours in one day. And thankfully, that is all over.

Starting tomorrow, m...

[NIGHTBLIND] Toy On A Shelf

For those of you who enjoy the Nightblind music, a new song has just released. Absolutely floored because this song has had nearly 1.3k plays in a week. I have NEVER released a song that's gotten that much attention. Heck, I don't even think the chorus is that good; I was contemplating redoing it...

DLC Character Release Method - Vote Here!

Hey all! With the two very meaty Main Story episodes on the way in the future, it's also coming time to begin work on our beloved DLC characters. However, I've been arguing with myself on how to release these characters.

[PUBLIC RELEASE] 0.2.3.14 is Live!

TL;DR: New version public release! THIS BUILD HAS NEW VARIABLES, so until I figure out how to add previously undefined variables to the data of a save file after you load it, YOU WILL NEED TO START A NEW SEASON 2 PLAYTHROUGH OR YOU WILL GET AN ERROR ON THE MAP SCREEN! 

[SIGNUP REWARD] Accelerated Release Schedule!

Hi, all!

[PROGRESS REPORT] Not Me, Just Casually Writing Half an Episode in One Week

You know, typically I take a little bit of a breather because getting a build ready for the release pipeline is super stressful. But this time it wasn't. Might be because I'm doing a lot less by the seat of my pants these days, with a ton more planning. Not to mention brainstorming with Necromede...

[PROGRESS REPORT] Slight Change in Side Story Philosophy

Hey, all.

Not only is the main story segment of the next build finished, but I also have 7 out of the 9 scenes I'd planned for the Side Story content finished. However, rather than stop at just those two scenes and release it, I kind of stumbled upon another method of thinking when it ...

Pinup Pack 9: New Core Promos

Hello, All!

As promised, supporters get early access to the next Pinup Pack! This time, most of the shots were lovingly crafted by my buddy Necromedes, head of DarksunStudios. Necro has been instrumental in helping me brainstorm story paths and body doubling so my ADHD will let me get shit ...

[PROGRESS REPORT] Episode 2 Complete, Working on Side Content

Hey all!

Thanks for your patience. I do manuscript and cover design on the side for other authors and I've had a couple of commissions lately that made me pause work on WCA a couple of times. But I'm happy to report that I just finished bugtesting the final scene in Season 2 Episode 2. That...

[PROGRESS REPORT] S1 Rewrite Progress & Who is Nightblind?

Hello, all!

I decided to write this devlog a little early because of a comment on the F95Zone forum, which is perhaps where most of this game's exposure comes from. There have been a TON of people who have come forward and offered feedback, some in... less than kind ways, but the underlying...

[PROGRESS REPORT] A Small Hiccup and Rewrite Progress

Right. So. I'm not gonna mince words. This has been a ROUGH fuggin month.

Household was swept with a flu, and temps outside dropped to 15F (that's -9.5C for you cultured people). As a result, all of my roomies and I missed a bit of work. Also had surprise vet bills for my cat, whom we almos...

The Next Few Updates

Hello, Lewdies and Gentlepervs,

Been a hell of a month. Nearly lost my cat to a massive UTI and found out she's diabetic, so she' s on insulin now. And I just recovered from perhaps the worst flu I've had since my first round with Covid. Now that I'm up and running again, I w...

You Have A New Voicemail from Galka!

Transcript: 
Hey, shorty. 
So… I was kicking back and watching a nature documentary today. One of the segments was about a bird. The male spends his entire adulthood building the nest, and when he finds a mate, he spends all of his time protecting her, taking care of her. <...

I Need Your Help! F95zone Small Dev Contest

Hello all!

Apparently there's a contest going on F95zone, one of the sites that lists World's Crossing Academy, and arguably drives even more traffic than Itch.io does. They're taking the 4 devs with the highest vote count on January 1st and finding the dev with the lowest paying Patre...

Fun Post: Core Character Bdays and Ethnicities

​Hey all!

I've had a few questions lately as to the origins of some of the human characters, and the funny thing is, I HAVE all this information. I just didn't know where to put it. So I'll just throw it here in a post that covers all the current Core characters!

Also, my test of Yo...

Let's Talk Tech! New Features Coming in Next Build!

​​Hello, all! I know, I know, two devlogs in the same week? What is this sorcery?

With my other writer on hiatus and my other poser in training swamped with art commissions, I'll admit there hasn't been a ton of movement as far as content creation for the build following 0.2.2.00. ...

Free Members?

I happened to glimpse the page at some point and I never realized how many people are signed up to this page as free members. To that end, I'll probably stop making progress update posts Supporter Only and make them publicly available, as well as some of the devlogs and whatnot that I write over ...

New Update On The Horizon

​Been a while since I've done a progress update, so here we go!

Meat first, dressings later. The next build is mostly a main story build with I think 3 or 4 new Side Story scene opportunities. I have 2 scenes left to shoot for the main story, and I could get some extra Side Story scenes d...

No Author Is Immune To Rewrites

Hey all!

So I took a couple of weeks off of working on the WCA story and just spent time reviewing feedback. With Season 1 having been my first ever game, there were a TON of mistakes I made, some of which are specific to the Adult Games community, some of which were simply due to learning...
