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. Most of my personal dev time has been spent on the backend, shoring up systems, creating variables, and finally figuring out how to make some of the features y'all have been requesting that I haven't known how to do until now. There are 2 massive Quality of Life changes coming to WCA S2, and it's about damn time I figured out how to do this.

Request 1: Players want to be able to tell when a girl has no more scenes

Request 2: Players want to be able to see all of the girls they can unlock in the current build so they know if they're missing anything

Me: Say no more

BEFORE:

AFTER:

​

Request 1: You'll notice Mouse is greyed out, and in game, you will not be able to click her.

Request 2: You can now see the "?" silhouettes marking characters you haven't unlocked yet that are available in the current build.

​I was also able to create an update feature that should (SHOULD) keep you from having to start over every time I add side scenes. It's supposed to check the "maxquest" variables and change them in your save game as soon as you load your save but before you get to play. That part is currently still in testing, but I think I have it nailed down. Time will tell.

LASTLY. Someone pitched the of making the main story content into RPA files since there's no limit on that, and changing the location of the save files because of a weird Android thing where you can't access your saves unless you root your phone. That will solve a TON of issues and allow me to combine S1 and S2 into one single game MUCH sooner. I also have someone who may be willing to help me handle compression of the images in separate grades for PC/MAC and for Android, so if that happens, we are well on our way to having the tools we need for the remake.

That's all for now! Love you all and thank you for the continued support!
