Unity Wizard School Exchange Student [v0.7 Hotfix] [Blue Witch Games]

[canibetheheroyet]

Seeing a couple honestly kinda rude responses about, so just tossing out another positive comment. I really love this game. I'm impatient as anyone else and excited for the next major update, but we gotta remember what's happening here: ONE SINGLE PERSON who is presumably not a professional game dev is making a really enjoyable, really high quality, full-fleshed entire game utilizing the entirety of an ENTIRE MAGICAL WORLD, with a fully custom and interesting story to go along with it. That's programming, writing, character design/visuals in general (even with AI), etc, etc. I'm honestly just impressed by the undertaking here and thrilled to be along for the ride. Can't wait for the next update.

If I could get a personal thought from BlueWitch, not requesting any meta shit or cheats here, but in your opinion as the Dev, what would you consider the most important stat? Personally, I like to focus Presence and Vitality just because I like the idea of just playing this ridiculously charismatic absolute UNIT, but I recognize the skillcheck usefulness of Knowledge and Spellcasting, so I was curious what you as the creator considered most relevant.

A final thought to everyone who grumps at BlueWitch for 'slow' updates or complaining about the AI images...

Guys... We're on a site specifically for mostly fanmade RPG Maker horny anime games. This person is, FOR FREE, offering us what basically amounts to Hogwarts Legacy: Horny Edition, and all they request from us is some patience as they figure out the nuances to their craft. Like. Am I the only one who appreciates how fucking awesome that is? Can't wait to play the next update! ^^

As always, I really appreciate the words man. Gonna try and not get too sentimental and shit but it does mean a lot. As for
Nikeee's comment, it might just have been missed sarcasm on my part, so I do apologise if I came off as a little aggro there

On the pace of releases, while it can be a little grating to read sometimes, I do understand where people are coming from. On some days I still fall victim to thinking that I'm nearing the finishline much sooner than I am (practically around every release actually), and then there are days where I, at the end of a session, will look things over and it feels like I've not moved even an inch forward. I guess the best way to think of it is how any sizable AAA game takes years to produce, and those guys are +200 members teams and have a lot stronger programmers than me

As "story content" has been sidelined by releases that mostly focuses on systems stuff and general improvements, the pace has admittedly slowed a bit. When this next build is out, I'll finally be going back to an almost 100% story content release. Additionally, I'll be working a lot more closely with another guy moving forward (same who did the character models etc), so hopefully the pace picks up again and I can get back on the 1-1.5 month release schedule


As for stat picks, while I'd have to check precisely tomorrow, I'm pretty sure Presence has the most stat checks by far so pretty much is the best stat, yup. And Vitality unlocks most of the speed increases, so I'd say it's a great setup really. There's also a potion that increases player size slightly each time if you want to REALLY bulk up

Coming in late but yea it was written as a joke, i guess i should have made it clearer.

I have one question though, would it be possible to have a toggle sprint button instead of holding it and also a way to remap them any way we would like to (or at least switch freely between qwerty and azerty) ?

It's all good man, dw! Is on me too for misreading

On custom mapping of keys, I'm using the old Unity input system, which does make it a bit of a headache to implement, but yes, it's something I'm going to have to get around to sooner or later. Should be coming, just not in this coming release most likely.

Also, small update in some hours here

 

[bluewitchgames]

Not the final pieces, mostly just meant as a showcase, but a couple of things to show new appearances for some of the main characters. Most of them are about done, though a lot of side things still missing. Couple of extra on discord too

 

[Kaeri]

Is there any way to turn the blessed birds off? Their screeching is rupturing my ear drums.

 

[Jb5212]

Is an updated Mac release still in the plans?

 

[canibetheheroyet]

Not to press or ask for an exact date, I know you're just one dude with the whole project in your lap, but I got Hogwarts Legacy on sale over the week and suddenly I'm restless for a spicy wizarding experience. Any ballpark idea when we might get the next update? Few days? Week or two? Not asking for a specific date, just hoping for something to be excited for. Hope life is going well for you lately bud!

 

[canibetheheroyet]

Random drunk idea if you are looking for ideas and scenes, a progression of the bartender job, with enough presence you unlock a little spicy. A few drunk patrons aren't too keen on leaving at closing time, so your main character ends up having to tire them out and make them go home.

 

[Luther9555]

Soooo is the public version coming? Dev you might want to change the picture on the main post from "few days" to "few months"

Yes, plans change. The reason I haven't uploaded the hotfixed version here isn't just for lols, or because I want to punish f95 people, or because I want to force people to pay for the beta (like someone suggested on Discord lol). Think I've mentioned it before but if we're talking in terms of maximising money, it absolutely makes sense to drip-feed updates to stay on the 'latest updates' page as much as possible. The reason is just that I really really don't like having half-baked builds on here. This current build that's coming soon has been through so many delays now that the guy I'm now working with and I have two builds being developed on simultaneously + got put behind by that the first round of art updates had to be entirely scrapped, so that was a month and a half down the drain and all that was to show for it was a shitty folder of art. Between re-doing the art and a castle overhaul + new content, it just sort of ballooned in scope but yeah I think it's finally ready in some days

Ey cheers man! And sorry for getting back to you so late. The update was so delayed that I didn't have time to finish it before having to go on holidays with parents, so wasn't really able to check in on here, but I think I can finally say VERY soon and it really should be it this time lmao. Hope you're still doing well too man!

Tbh been wanting to do more with the MC's side gigs, and the bartender one especially, so.......

Really excited for it man! Take your time, but it'll be a great day for me when the new update drops. Can't wait to drop everything and fucking go max horny hogwarts mode. Hogwarts Legacy is great and all, but it seems to have a considerable lack of busty babes excited for a transfer student. Real shame, that.

 

[Largeguappp]

compressed?

 

[Jb5212]

Is there still a Mac update planned?

 

[Knighfall]

Excited for the next update

Cheers man, seriously. I think we're FINALLY soon there. Testing with a couple of people now. Then there's some art that has to be cut out etc. It ended up at 30k images AFTER the first round of sorting (some of which have already been sorted a second time for the final round, thankfully), but yeah, a bit to go through there, but then it's finally fucking ready

Excited for the next update

Cheers man!

Is there still a Mac update planned?

Yup! Won't be ready on delivery day of this release, simply because it needs to go out as soon as fucking possible, but hopefully within a few days of it (assuming there aren't that many bugs to fix)

And to keep the promise of doing updates here as well, just some pictures from the updated world. Keep in mind they're just quick screengrabs from the engine so they look trash but yeah, lol:

New art looks good but I prefered the old one with a more realistic kind of art style
