[RELEASE] 1.5.0.0 Release Schedule! (Currently T4 and up)

It's here! Finally! Now, it's worth noting that we had to take some time off due to burnout. So this update will feel shorter than most. To make up for that, this update both finishes Season 2 Episode 5 in the main story AND includes some side story scenes for a few characters. Other improvements include cleaning up the phone's text boxes (credit: Hemsoichia) and a few other things.

1.5.0.0 Entering Final Testing

Content development is done for 1.5.0.0, so I thought I'd pop on and share what's left to do:

  • Set all side story maxquest variables to new values to ensure you can actually play the new side story scenes

  • Insert mainquest variable checks in the side stories 

  • Build Saffryn's DLC package

  • Full playtest of Season 2 Episode 5

  • Test of Saffryn DLC to ensure it works with a live copy of the game

And... tha...

[PROGRESS REPORT] The Home Stretch! Get Ready for 1.5.0.0!

​Hoo boy. Been a while since you've seen one of these, huh?

We've been on fire lately. Saffryn is ready for early access release to T4 and up Supporters, and 1.5.0.0, the end of Season 2 Episode 5, is almost ready to ship. The main story section is completely finished, and we're just finishing up the side story scenes and the side story unlock pacing. In fact, I made this graphic 6 hours ago, ...

Saffryn: Coming Soon to T4 and Up!

Alright, so we have been on FIRE these last few days. I've gotten 7 Saffryn scenes done, and just finished all her compatibility hooks in the main game.

Talked it over with the team, and they want to release Saffryn into early access after we finish 1.5.0.0, so that way people who want Saffryn don't have to update their game twice. I think that's a great idea, so I'm gonna aim for that or a simultaneous release. I might wait to see if there are any bug reports with 1.5.0.0 first before...

Supporter Preview: Saffryn DLC 2

I'm noticing I'm in a much better mood now that I'm not holding myself back from working on my favorite WCA girl. Wonder what that's all about. lol

The story in this one is shaping up to be pretty damn wholesome. I talked with the team, and because of how Saffryn's story is going, we feel Scene 6 is a good point to release her DLC for T4 and up in early access. From there, we'll get the early testers' feedback like we did with Senia, sort of an overall pulse check to see how y'all feel....

Supporter Preview: Saffryn DLC

Main story currently has a snag I'm waiting to work out, so I got some work done on the Saffryn DLC while I'm waiting. Thought I might share this fantastic dress you get to see her in during Scene B :)

Hoping I can get that snag worked out soon; the main story part of the last bit of S2E5 is 3 scenes away from being completely finished. From there, we just have to finish up the side story scenes we're bundling in, do the full playthrough test, and then it'll be ready for release! Shoul...

[PROGRESS REPORT] A Glitch in the Matrix

Alright, you might read some of this and decide you know what I'm gonna say, but I urge you to finish the post before you jump to any conclusions. 

The important stuff: WCA is not dead. It's not being abandoned. We absolutely intend to finish this game.

HOWEVER. This past month has been a bit rough on both the technical and emotional sides. 

First, my motherboard is going out. It's been going out for quite a while. My PC is... something like 6 years old, and it's o...

Necro's Shop Exclusives: Senia Volume 1

Hey, all! Necro wanted to share a bit of a passion project with you, and a bit of an experiment on his part. This is a high-effort thing he's put a LOT of time into, more than your typical Pinup Pack. A lot more. But I'll let him do the talking.

[PROGRESS REPORT] Getting Ready to Throw Down

Hey all! Progress Report time!

Slowly but surely, we're getting there. Half of my struggle has been with the modeler that's doing Elowyn and Aurum's models from scratch. I mean, for fuck's sake, this doesn't even look like Aurum.

The team has, unfortunately, been in and out of extreme burnout, so thi...

[PROGRESS REPORT/CALENDAR] Foot on the Gas

Hey all! Thanks for your patience. September is a rough month for all of us, and we don't tend to get as much done as in other months. Expect the same in May. However, lemme show you where we're at:

It's not a ton, but it's more than I thought we'd get done. Now that we're in October, we're coming out of the slump and our foot is back on the gas. Speaking of October...

[PROGRESS REPORT] Fingers Crossed for a New Fight Idea

Hey, all! Been a little longer than I'd like since the last progress report, and that's because I was aggressively pursuing an idea I had for the upcoming fight scene. 

But first! Here's where we are:

But what about that idea? Essentially, I thought it'd be cool to have video clips instead of stills for the upcoming scene, because this fight is pretty damn important. Imagine using the sam...

[PUBLIC RELEASE] Fend Off the Marbog in 1.4.8.2!

It's time. 1.4.8.2 is the first ~60% of Season 2 Episode 5. We decided on a split release because of how absolutely massive this episode is. We typically average somewhere around 18 to 22 scenes per episode. Including Free Time sections, S2E5 has 70. Absolutely massive. Not only are we handling the Marbog issue on the Spirit Elf world, but we're also finally addressing a lot of story beats that were set up in previous episodes. Closure and progress are the name of the game here, and we're rea...
