I've been busying myself these past couple weeks by going over the feedback form's results at the end of Build 2. There are a few particular characters that are getting a LOT of love and requests for more screentime, so it's been pretty easy to plan out this next build. There are still a few planned scenes where I haven't a clue as to what will happen, but I know who will be involved, so that's a st...

So I got an interesting bit of feedback on the feedback form, and I want to explore this. The feedback goes:
"Please STOP trying to write an Irish accent. It is not even CLOSE to actual Irish speakers. It reads like an awful racist stereotype that mixes up multiple Irish and Scottish dialects.
Either get actual Irish people to review and revise her dialogue, or sc...

I have to say, I can't believe how patient this community is. Every day, I look at my Patreon page for this game that hasn't been updated since November, expecting to see the support dwindle in to nothing. And sure, I do lose Patrons, on about a weekly basis. But new people sign up in their stead, and where I expected support for this game to disappear, it's still going strong. I was ...
By now you must be thinking, "No way. This is perhaps the unluckiest dev I've ever followed."
I wish I was joking. I'm not.
Tuesday, while on my way to visit a friend in Vancouver, WA, my left rear tire blew and sent me spinning across 4 lanes of traffic at 70mph. I hit the ditch on the right side of the freeway facing backwards and rolled 4 times before finally coming to a stop. Somehow, the rolls were so perfectly diagonal that all of my glass was intact and none of the airbags ...

As most of you know, the past half year has been abject hell for me. I'm not saying this for sympathy, just explaining. This next update is gonna take a while, because I have been struggling with a mental block.
You see, I had a relationship end in August of last year, while I was dealing with my uncle and father being diagnosed with terminal cancer and my grandmother, other uncle,...
Hello, all!
Man, this year has been something else. After the last update, I attempted to start writing for the next one, and just... couldn't. Nothing was coming to me. I realized how much pressure I was putting on myself to get more content out to you folks, and I know y'all don't need me sacrificing my health to get more of the game, so I took a deep breath, leaned back from the keyboard, and just sat back and read all the feedback that came in. And damn, what a lot of feedback.&n...

Hey, all!
This has been a wild ride so far, and as a brand new dev, there's been a lot of learning involved. I wanted to talk a bit about the goals I have for next build and how they relate to the feedback I've been getting.
First off, thanks to everyone who has been filling out the feedback form at the end. This is where you get your chance to influence the game direction, and I'm super happy th...
2021-12-07 23:14:44 +0000 UTC View PostSimple. All of the lewd content has been softcore up to this point. The third build will end with our first hardcore scene, and y'all get to pick who gets the D! Vote for each character you'd want to see get the D first, from the list of girls we've interacted with so far:
2021-11-27 09:29:59 +0000 UTC View PostCheck your Patreon inboxes! I sent all of you Tier 2 supporters unique keys to download the Chapter 5 update!
So part of what I've been working on with my guest coder is upgrading the gallery. The one made by Coocooforcocoapuffs was a pretty great starter gallery, but I do very much like the look of the new one. Check this out!
Still working on porting the music code over but it'll be sick when I do. And organizing it this way made me realize we have a total of 34 girls in the game so far.
Hey, all! It's been a while since I've posted something that wasn't a copypasta from something that I'd already posted on Itch. So I figured a special preview of some of the upcoming new characters might be kind of fun. Pretty soon, I'll also be releasing Pinup Pack 2, which is a Duos pack with Nook and Tilai in Lingerie! This was requested by one of our T5 Creator patrons and I'm almost done with it.

IT. IS. HERE.
FINALLY.
4000 lines of code.
1000 new screens.
176 video clips.
And that's just in the Thursday through Sunday update that nobody has played. If you haven't played the +2 day update with Tuesday and Wednesday, there's... well, more. I didn't count and I'm not going to.

So here's where things get exciting. The final scene for Sunday is DONE. Just finished shooting, scripting, and scoring. Now I'm bugtesting the scene. The second build is almost ready for the T5 Patreon supporters!
As promised, I will also be uploading the newest build DIRECTLY to Itch as well (not Mega). The price for this build will start at the same price of the T5 Creator Tier on Patreon, $75. Is that a...
2021-11-05 13:23:45 +0000 UTC View PostI'm not gonna beat around the bush with you. Saturday is done.

</figure>This update alone is over 3k lines of code. I have exactly 4 scenes to do to finish Sunday. Then bug testing and fixing, and the second build, with the full Chapter 5, will be available to Patrons first! That means only one month to wait for the public!
Of these scenes, the Morning scene is a rep...
2021-10-31 00:11:32 +0000 UTC View PostThis one's simple, folks. Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of the new week are complete and ready to go. I'm still working on Saturday and Sunday, which are tougher because there is more H-content. It could take me a few more weeks.
The next update will include doing away with Mega and making all downloads available through Itch directly. This will help the game tremendously, as many people can't download such large things from Mega without being forced to pay. I myself have skippe...
2021-10-28 22:02:12 +0000 UTC View PostAhoy again!
Alright, so between planning for funerals and having someone walk out on our jobsite, forcing the rest of us to work overtime, there has been less time to work on WCA than I'm used to. That being said, I've made significant progress on our last little hangup.
All of my relevant files are now on a brand new external SSD. And I discovered I had made another dumbshit mistake. Regardless of the hardware failure, I would have had to reshoot Saturday's scenes anyways. Why? Y...

As a huge thank you to the community supporting this game, here's Pinup Pack 1 - Halloween Non-Nude + Bonuses! Based on the girls you chose and the theme you voted for, I put together 11 high definition shots I think you'll enjoy. Plus, since this is the first Pinup Pack, I included 8 Bonus shots that I'd rendered previously, some of which you've seen in-game as the chapter end cards. The pack is a...
2021-10-25 12:26:46 +0000 UTC View PostAlright! The girls have been chosen, and all that remains is to select a theme! Vote for every theme you want to see!
In the future, you'll suggest themes during the Character Selection vote with your comments so that I'll have time to include them in the Theme vote.
The poll is only open for 3 days! Ends Friday, 11pm PST!
2021-10-20 22:55:20 +0000 UTC View PostAhoy, all!
I mentioned in one of my last posts that I wanted to start working on a Patron-Only Pinup Package featuring the girls you vote for! So first off, let's vote for the girls!
Later on, we may vote for a theme, such as lingerie, swimsuits, topless, booty shots, etc. Lemme know in the comments what themes you'd like to add to the next poll!
For the selection, vote for every girl you'd like to see a pinup of. I'll likely be taking the top 5.

You know, if you'd shut up for like 5 seconds, I could tell you.

Ehem.
So yes, I published that progress report yesterday, but I've gotten some mixed responses. A lot of people were hoping the second build would be out by now, but due to all the life events (disasters) taking place recently, that hasn...

Hello, all! Wow, I'm inconsistent with these posts lol
So! What's been happening? Well, Thursday is done and I have been POWERING through Friday's scenes. I'm currently stuck on a staff meeting scene. It has so many characters that I can't use my laptop at work to work on posing lol. I have to use my desktop PC at home.

So I go back today and check the poll. And goddammit. Of COURSE you tied. Of COURSE.
So here's what we're gonna do. Obviously the new character intro isn't the play here, and you're getting at least 5 new characters next patch, so let us do a tiebreaker vote!
I swear to god, if y'all tie this one again...
2021-10-01 12:05:31 +0000 UTC View PostHey, all! I was scripting some of Friday's scenes for the next build, and I realized that Friday was rather short; I have room for another scene on Friday Evening. The question is, what type of scene would you like it to be? Thursday ends with an H-scene, and so will Saturday and Sunday, for info.
I'd love your input!

Hey, all. Just had another kind of life and game update for you. Stuff has been rough lately, but I'm just gonna keep plugging away at World's Crossing, 'cause creating stuff that you folks enjoy makes me feel better. Thank you all for your support and your patience. The show must go on.
2021-09-11 22:14:48 +0000 UTC View PostHoo boy. This has been a week.
In case you don't pay attention to the Itch.io page, I went on vacation to see my family and ended up having an emergency. This forced me to stop development on the game for a little bit.
Not gonna go into a ton of detail here, but the TL;DR: is, my vacation was a disaster, I almost lost my dad, and I came back with a flu.
Thankfully, I'm back home now, and the hardest part is over. My dad got his hip replaced and is now optimistic about loo...

The link above contains the full story. I finally get to see my family after a year of not being allowed to take vacation due to short staffing at work and COVID.
I'm not taking my laptop or the drive that contains WCA because if something happens to it, I won't be able to continue the game, and I don't wanna risk that.
I'll be out for about a week, and then I'll be back on development starting September 2nd. Thank you all for your patience, and I'm looking forward to releas...
