Progress Report: Collaborators

Hello all!

This past week has been super exciting. Thursday is completely written, and I'm in the process of shooting and scoring the scenes. I just purchased 2 new music packs of the same style as what's already in the game, so you'll have more music fairly soon as well.

In this next build, I've experimented with a very choice-oriented, almost dungeon-crawl style scene where each room you enter shoul...

Druthari by WynterWing

Hi all! Had a secret project going with an artist friend of mine, and here's the first one! This art is exclusive to Patrons, and what's more... if you're T4 or T5, make sure you head to the Discord, 'cause there are topless versions as well :)

Progress Report: What Support Does for a Game

Hey all!

Right, so I have a bit of an irking confession to make. I have been stuck on the same goddamn scene for two whole weeks. And it's not for lack of trying; the age-old writer's cycle of write, delete, write, delete, write, delete... I just kept writing myself into a corner.  I did come to a solution, but it's not... as realistic as it could be. Then again, one could argue that this is a game, and a story, and a certain suspension of disbelief is required.

New Patron-Only Secret Gift On The Way!

I can't say much. But there is a small project in the works that includes some of your favorite WCA girls. T4 and above will receive additional, special versions of them. It's all very hush-hush, yes, but I promise you, you will love it. 

Back to work for me. Thursday is kicking my ass. I have GOT to get this scene written.

Progress Report: It's Done! Just Gallery Tweaks Now

Hello, all!

The upgrade patch for the reworked Chapter 6 is done! Now all I have to do is some gallery tweaks to make the damn images show up properly, and it'll be ready to push to the public. The new version features:

  • Completely replaced text system
  • 2 new H-scenes
  • Rewritten text in Ch. 6 and Ch. 4 that makes things like the Marbog and the Harpy make more sense
  • And a handful of other quality of life fixes.

I had to take one of the H-sc...

Ch. 6 Rework Update

Hey there!Been about half a week since the public got ahold of 0.1.5.5 and man, y'all HATE that texting system.  So I replaced it. With the help of Vertigo from Crimson High (check out his game here: https://vertigoavn.itch.io/crimsonhigh), the new text system looks, feels, and sounds(yes, sounds) much better! It has click-through, rollback, mid-save capability, and best of all, I can still have the girls send...

Texting Speed - How to Speed Things Up

Hey all!

A recurring bit of feedback I keep getting is how slowly the texting system works. Well, if you're capable of opening .rpy files, you can customize this yourself!

Experimental Pinup Pack 5 - Dancing Video Clips

Hey all! As stated before, I was experimenting with making video clips of the girls. So this is an experimental pinup pack that has some fairly long, loopable video clips of 5 of the girls. You can download them directly from this post.

The questions are: Do you like this kind of content? Each clip took me about an hour to make, so I want to be sure it's worth it to you.

Second, if so, how do you want to see this distributed? Add a couple of video clips to each static pinup pack? ...

The Rhythm is Returning (Poll)

​It's interesting, how a change of scenery can reset the mind.

See, I said I was gonna take some time off and visit family and friends. And yet, I've felt the creative spark returning. Over the past three days, I've written five of Thursday's seven scenes. Friday has four scenes, Saturday has two regular and four optional scenes, and Sunday has four scenes as well. Total of 21 scenes, so I'm already......

Progress Report: The Home Stretch

​By now, you may have noticed I'm not like other devs. I don't post weekly progress updates. Weekly devlogs. Or really anything on any kind of schedule. I post when I have something to say.

I do what I want. lol

That being said, I only have 2 scenes to shoot and score (meaning I have to do the renders and the music) and then it's on to bugtesting. Once that's done, our Tier 5 Patrons get fir...

Tragedy Strikes Again

It seems the rain isn't over.

My cousin Phil has been a huge part of my life since I was a kid. An Elite Trainer by trade, this man was able to cosplay Kratos from God of War perfectly. He made a career in personal training, and was the entire reason I moved to Washington state. And I've spent a significant portion of this year with him, helping him out after a really nasty failed relationship in which he lost everything. Everything was going great. He'd just secured a position with my...

​Hello gorgeous! Yes, you. I'm talking to you. You're awesome. Why? 'cause you've been following this project for as long as you have, and despite speed bump after speed bump, here you are! So here are some previews of the next build!

As far as the actual progress, I originally had 8 scenes to do. I had new ideas, and that jumped up to 10. I currently have 5 left. 3 are written and I just need to shoot and score them, and the other two need to be written, shot, and scored.  I fin...

June Progress Report: Build 2.5 (v. 0.1.5.5)

Let's get right down to it. I am 8 scenes away from finishing this next build, which will be end of Sunday through Wednesday of the next week. The build AFTER this will be Thursday through Sunday.

Most of these 8 scenes are already scripted. I just need to shoot...

Build 3 Progress Report and Release Intentions

Been a while since I've done one of these, but I wanted to let everyone know where we're at with the next release, as it's a VERY common question.

​First off, I've made a lot of design changes to the game itself. A lot of people were suggesting that there be more content in each day, rather than just one or two scenes. So I've added some stuff. Each day is now something like four to six scenes, plus a n...

Losing Support, But It's Understandable

Hello again, all!

I wanted to wait until April Fools had passed before making a post so you know that I'm not pulling your leg. First, the bad news. Because of the LENGTHY chain of unfortunate events, I've lost about half of the support I had on Patreon. This means I need to work 4 days a week instead of 3, which ultimately means less time can be spent on the game. It's a vicious cycle. However, I'm back ...

Possible New Patron-Only Feature: Interviews

Hello there, all! 

I've been racking my brains for more things to give to the people who stay signed up to the Patreon and help me stay away from work to work on this game instead. 

Not gonna lie, part of it is because the support for this game has fallen by nearly $90 a month, which is a huge hit. So I thought, "What can I do to give back to these lovely people who keep suppor...
