Chapter Six is coming along. And it's time for a few sneak peeks. I'm done with sprite expressions but have to go back through the route to check placement and zoom levels as there are a few places where sprites aren't quite positioned the way I want.
This will also be my test run to make sure no missing attributes are causing issues. But the expressions themselves are coded in.

Just another character wallpaper - this time of Kav. I'll eventually get around to doing everyone in this series but it's just taking a while since I'm super busy with working on the game.
Got to finish this one since there're no CGs in Chapter 6. So that's helpful.
Thank you to everyone who supports this game here on Patreon. Without you I really wouldn't be able to keep making gam...

2025-04-13 02:57:51 +0000 UTC View PostOkay everyone. So.
Here is the deal.
The Patreon guide for WSC is huge already at 78 pages and counting. It is only going to get longer. I've been wondering if it would be less unwieldy to break the guide up by route.
It's easily going to cross 100 pages by the end.
So my question is - would you prefer if I broke the PDF up into 7 individual PDFs (the 7th is for the no ...
2025-04-09 00:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHallo! Here are the questions from April and one from a while ago that I never got around to answering because my answers were eaten at some point (sorry Milo!)
1. What type(s) of music does each LI like to listen to (if they like to listen to music)? I know we chat with Asher about this a bit, but I'm curious about the others' interests, too.

2025-04-06 01:47:15 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone! Sorry for the missing devlog. Just had a busy weekend.
WSC Chapter 5 (Episode 3) is still in Early Access at the moment. I just finished up Yren's CG and will probably be pushing out that update in the next couple of days after I test it thoroughly.
I've already started doing some of the foundational work for Chapter 6 as well but I actually have a couple of small cut i...

For some reason the colours have been completely nommed by either Patreon or something. But despite that, here we have Asher lying in bed to go with Noel's lounging around wallpaper. As always, his colour is red.
You can find several resolutions below including the full sized image as well as a couple of cropped and resized versions.

So I am not giving much information about these two. I feel like astute observers who have played Episode 2 won't really need much information to figure out the relevance of these two in the narrative so far.
They will be appearing physically in Chapter 5 but actually when you first meet them...you still can't see their faces properly. Their faces won't be revealed to our intrepid main ch...

There were originally supposed to be two trailers but one person ghosted me (AUUUGH!) and so as of now, I only have one. But hopefully I will have the original main trailer by the end of March.

Just posting a few short clips and sneak peeks from Chapter 5. I'm still working on sprite expressions so if there are any long stretches of characters staring blankly straight ahead, that's why!
