[VictorSeven]

(Sigh) Sorry, uploaders. One more time.
https://f95zone.to/threads/worlds-crossing-academy-s2-v0-2-3-13-teamemberwings.86666/post-13406859
Post has been edited and build has been updated to 0.2.3.14 to handle the map bug. Changelog for each version has been defined:
In 0.2.3.1

• A couple of typos were corrected
• Blossom's unlock tag was placed too late to be able to play her second scene, as that scene was only available during Lunchtime. Her unlock tag was moved to the beginning of S2E2 so that way both of her scenes can be played
• Debug Menu was accidentally left on, and it's now turned off
• New Season 1 Playthrough was accidentally left on, and it's now turned off

In 0.2.3.13

• Bugfix to Blossom's B scene where the images were not displaying
• Bugfix to the secret character still being selectable after her A scene

In 0.2.3.14

• Bugfix to the nighttime map not showing up

Appreciate everyone's patience.

Bu oyunda NTR yok. Kızlarınızın hiçbirine başka hiçbir sik girmeyecek.
Apologies for use of Google Translate but I'm not letting that fly. Sorry.

I'm sadder than you that a game with such high potential is covered in femdom and lesbianism, but that's the truth, and I also agree with you that girls won't get dick (and the reason you don't do this is because you're afraid of people's reactions) but I think the girls we like will get everything except dick and we'll be around for more.

 

[nbkdelta1]

well now if only they can fix it were you can continue from a save instead of starting a new game so no errors happen other peep can do this with no issues on the second event with blossom there's no image only text when you go get the royal jelly for here on your lunch break.

 

[Brit2121]

Forgot to respond to this. Yeah, I learned very early on that No Dicks was the inherent rule. I had actually planned several side scenes that I have now scrapped, now that I know this community a tad better. Would not have gone over well. Learning this genre and community have been slow going, and I'm constantly discovering new things. It's just... tough to put so much love and care into something, and not get worked up when it gets dragged through the mud, is all. A failing of mine.

And this is clear evidence that you are into NTR but found the "no dick" trick to add to the game.

 

[Mommysbuttslut]

I'm sadder than you that a game with such high potential is covered in femdom and lesbianism, but that's the truth

One lesbian couple. One single lesbian couple and a small handful of side scenes. CoVeReD iN fEMdOm aNd lEsbIaNiSm.
No, that's not the truth. That's your delusion.

Either way your original claim that there's NTR and needs the tag is a downright lie. MC's literally helping two girls get together, who tf is being stolen from him? No one, that's who. Go touch some grass. And just for the record I'm somebody who didn't like that storyline at all, at least as it was originally written.

 

[nbkdelta1]

ok another issues is when they send you a text with a image why not add a feature were clicking on said image enlarges it so you can get a better view like it does in real life. and why no replay gallery.

Listen, blockhead, this is a game that claims to treat girls like people you care about, not like whores, and that you're interested in them romantically. and imagine throwing one of these girls into someone's bed just for gain, as if there's no other way to get attached, it's such an obvious ntr. And finally, don't forget to get off the lawn and throw your girlfriend into your boss's bed to get a raise.

And finally, don't forget to get off the lawn and throw your girlfriend into your boss's bed to get a raise.

MC isn't looking to build a harem from the start, he's looking to make some friends and when he notices his new potential friend has a crush he decides to wingman for her. He's not throwing some girl he's interested in into another person's bed. Regardless, even if he was interested in her that's not NTR because he has no relationship with her to ruin and nobody's being stolen from him, blockhead.
Did you miss the part where I said I didn't like that part or something? Doesn't make your take on it any less fucking delusional.

Just throw them on the list, they're obnoxious and shitting up the thread.

That bug is fixed in the update. You have an old version. Update the game and the typo in the reference file will resolve itself.

As I explained earlier, I'm an author first and not a very good coder. I had to teach myself Ren'py when my coder left this game 6 months in. Thankfully, a very nice user just taught me how I can fix the save game issue just today, but it'll take time to implement. Until then, you'll have to start a new Season 2 playthrough in order to have the game initialize the variables correctly. I am, unfortunately, still learning. There are MANY devs who are far better at coding than I am. One of them is Vertigo, who does Crimson High; it's because of him that WCA has a phone system. I can ask him about a way to fullscreen the picture on click; I'm not sure if even Crimson High has that feature, but I can definitely ask.

We used to have a gallery, but everyone kept complaining that they couldn't unlock all the scenes when we had just put placeholders in the rest of the slots to prevent glitches. It was a pain in the ass so we took the gallery out. I plan for each girl's side story, once you finish it, to become a mini-gallery for that girl and be able to replay all of her H-scenes from the book screen. That should fix the issue and give y'all the gallery functionality that most games have. I'm just... not quite there yet because we don't quite have a girl with a finished side story yet. Once we have that, I'll build that mini-gallery out and make sure the end of each girl's quest file has it.

Listen, blockhead, this is a game that claims to treat girls like people you care about, not like whores, and that you're interested in them romantically. and imagine throwing one of these girls into someone's bed just for gain, as if there's no other way to get attached, it's such an obvious ntr. And finally, don't forget to get off the lawn and throw your girlfriend into your boss's bed to get a raise.

If you're referencing Chiara and Eshtel, that's being fixed in the Season 1 rewrite, along with moving River and Cecilia to the Secret category and taking out their previously forced interactions. And man, if you're mad about Chiara and Eshtel, hoo boy, be glad you weren't here when the Harpy girl was in Season 1 lol. Can't imagine you'd enjoy that interaction. Here are some of the Season 1 changes:

By the way, here is the definition of NTR:

This is NOT what is happening in this game, and this is the part that really, really upsets me. To come in here and demand an NTR tag is shitty on several levels because it would DOOM this game and absolutely murder me financially. The NTR tag causes most people, INCLUDING ME, to automatically avoid a game. I do NOT like cheating. What did I do to you to deserve that? Why would you come in here waving your dick around and trying to get my game mass cancelled because you didn't like that you acted as a WINGMAN FOR A FEMALE FRIEND, which is very different from what NTR actually is? AND IT'S BEING FIXED IN THE REWRITE! For God's sake, all ya had to do was a little reading and you'd have known that!

Coming in here and doing that has the potential to cause real financial harm to me and those who assist me and I do not appreciate that on any level. Throwing a temper tantrum is one thing. Throwing a temper tantrum and trying to get my work condemned to death by the AVN community with the most controversial tag is another. This game is paying my rent right now while I look for a second job outside of my security job. Your little stunt has the potential to cause REAL financial and life damage if people believe you and either refuse to support the game or drop off the support sites before they've had a chance to play it. And I've worked HARD on this, man. I'm up all night most nights writing scene plans, shooting scenes, carefully planning music choices, obsessing over camera angles and lighting, rewriting and rewriting scenes because I think they're not good enough till I'm quite literally passing out in my chair, all for you to come in here and try to destroy it with 3 letters. Come on, man. I work really hard on this shit. I love this game, its characters, and this community that has taken time out of their days that they could be spending on other, better games, to come play and support WCA. I'd be devastated if someone doomed it to die under the NTR tag after all this work I've done and all I've had to learn over the years. There's no need for that.

Mass outrage and cancel culture has gotta stop, y'all. It's okay for you to be unhappy about something in the game. I get it. I can't please everyone, and there will always be someone unhappy with my writing. I'm an author, but not a bestseller. I understand my writing isn't for everyone. It's NOT okay for you to come in here and try to ruin someone's living. The NTR tag would RUIN this game and its reputation. Not cool.

Would appreciate if you'd show yourself out. Really rather not interact with someone who would come in here and destroy someone's livelihood over being angry at something they played for FREE.

To the rest of you, I know, I know, don't feed the trolls and all that... but this really bothered me. This coulda been the day WCA died if the wrong person saw this and that tag was applied. That scares the shit outta me.

VictorSeven You are consistently building on that great foundation of S1, fantastic release and S2 continues strong, nice work! Really liking the overall chemistry between the characters taking on from S1 and plus glad you have found your rhythm as this release was much faster than expected so definitely kudos for that! Gonna be interesting how some of the plot points would be solved further, have one or two theories about each but yea it is setting up to be an intriguing plot which is a pleasing thing as a player.

Thanks for reading Dev, best wishes for ahead

Thanks so much! Working hard on Season 2 Episodes 3 and 4 as we speak, and getting our next Side Story picks lined up for scene batches. Really appreciate the kind words and encouragement after the day I've had lol.

 

[Elhemeer]

Okay, having just come on board recently, but apparently before any changes were implemented in Season 1, I have to ask: Is the impetus for the story going to be completely different if you don't "opt in" to the crazy ex's sister and crazy ex, or is it just going to be unknown to the player what's happening?

I guess my question really is: is the whole first chapter going to be completely different key points, with her story being one that isn't necessary for progression anymore?

 

[Sepsin]

I'm sadder than you that a game with such high potential is covered in femdom and lesbianism, but that's the truth, and I also agree with you that girls won't get dick (and the reason you don't do this is because you're afraid of people's reactions) but I think the girls we like will get everything except dick and we'll be around for more.

Hey, how much femdom are we talking about? Is it optional? Because I'm not a fan of femdom but can stomach some if it's not on the heavy side, but I'm totally ok if it's all optional.

The game interests me and I've read talks about reworking the first season due to controversial characters so I'm waiting for it before starting but I do read comments around here sometimes.

So Cecilia is still going to be a key antagonist in the story, and she's very much a part of Aurum's backstory and character arc. What you're opting into/out of is whether or not she is available to romance after a certain key scene in S2E5. ALL of her sexual content will be relegated to her side story file, and you will be able to choose her fate, which will determine if she remains in your game or not after all she's done. Even the mannequin scene in the Prologue of S1.

Cecilia ended up being SUCH a polarizing character that half of the community adores her and wants a redemption arc, and half want her dead. I was wholly unprepared. Having had a stalker myself, I felt I could really do her justice with believable writing, but I suppose I'm not the only guy who's been stalked, and her behavior triggered some people pretty bad. So I'm giving y'all the choice to treat her as just an antagonist, or to make her a love interest after her antagonist storyline is dealt with.

Her story beats will still be there because they're important to Aurum's state of mind and the lies he believes as a character. They're part of his flaws and the demons he has to face in order to improve as a person. The MAIN thing that's changing is being forced to view sexual content that you don't want to view (all sexual content is going into the Side Quest files except maybe the Ashley flashback because that's an important story beat) and lightening up the negativity and "man-hating atmosphere" I've gotten so many complaints about, particularly in the Prologue and first couple of chapters. I'm also adding player choices where there previously were none, such as adding the ability to date Eshtel monogamously or in a poly agreement with Chiara, instead of just being forced to wingman for Chiara and giving Eshtel away, which people did NOT like.

Hey, how much femdom are we talking about? Is it optional? Because I'm not a fan of femdom but can stomach some if it's not on the heavy side, but I'm totally ok if it's all optional.

The game interests me and I've read talks about reworking the first season due to controversial characters so I'm waiting for it before starting but I do read comments around here sometimes.

See, this is the danger of temper tantrums like this. You were nice enough to speak up and verify. But I wonder how many people saw this guy's comment and went "NOPE NEVER PLAYING THAT GAME IT'S OBV SHIT."

There is zero femdom in the game at present since I removed the Harpy girl. There are, I think, maybe 1 or 2 lesbian scenes that you are sent via your phone at some point by an unknown voyeur. There might be one lesbian scene that occurs automatically in S1 pre-rewrite. I do have some characters that will potentially have a femdom/smalldom kink in their side quest files, but there is only one character in S2 so far that actually even has a sex scene. The rest of the sex scenes in S1 are all foreplay aside from the Ashley flashback, because I designed this to be slow burn to make you earn the juicier stuff. This isn't a quick fap game where each sex scene is one position, 3 speeds, then bust. I put a lot of work into making these scenes long enough to enjoy at the proper moments, and still, I'm opting to take all of them out of S1 and put them into each girl's proper side story files.

My philosophy here is "Something for Everyone." I have 49 characters total with a massive range of body types and with several lighter kinks planned, though being particularly vanilla myself, I'm not planning on going super deep into the kinks. Never NTR, never scat, never rape, never guro, never vore. Heck, I don't even like feet or anal, though I will try to include at least one or two of those types of scenes for those who like them since the animations already exist in my software.

When I started this game, I was thinking about all of these beautifully written and lovingly crafted characters we experience in JRPGs like Final Fantasy and the like. These characters have entire fandoms behind them, and yet, the games themselves never let you explore what your connection to that character means to you.

And on the flipside, there is an epidemic in the Adult Game space where the "story" is just laughable excuses to move to the next H-scene. I wanted to combine the best elements of both of these genres to create these wonderful, deep characters you fall in love with and also get to pursue and develop your relationship with if you so choose. The way I'm building S2 and the rewrite will mean that if there's a character you don't wanna go past friendship with, you don't have to. But if there's a character you want to pursue physically, you get to.

My view is trust your own opinion over anyone else's. If you take a chance on S1 and find something you really don't like, then you know you'll probably wanna wait till the rewrite. I wrote it like a novel, not a game, so the pathos is heavier because I wanted the player to feel a real difference when they started influencing the world. Heck, by S2, even the man-hating feminist herself, Ms. Clements, is beginning to warm up to Aurum. She even complimented him a couple of times! I wanted the game to feel like it starts out in a shitty place so you could feel the changes you're making with your presence.

But not everyone could stomach just how sour it started, I suppose. It IS a game, not a novel, and people play games to feel GOOD, not bad. So I get it. Hence the rewrite.

I understand you and I'm sorry if it really hurt you but these are facts I know what ntr is and it definitely doesn't fit the full definition of ntr but the point is ntr games are games where you get humiliated and here we are definitely humiliated even more than games that fit the exact definition of ntr I don't know what kind of man throws the girl he likes into someone else's arms just for some gain, maybe cuckolds. And even if there is no ntr tag in this game, there should definitely be a sharing tag. I don't know if this is mandatory or not, but I am 100 percent sure that in the future there will be an option to be in the harem of the girl we like.

So, what I'm hearing is ... my favorite parts* will all be still choosable, right? (goblin satisfaction, wingman for Chiara, etc.)

*Actually, good story and interesting MC is my favorite part, but those are my second favorite ^_^

Absolutely. They're just being made options instead of automatically being chosen for you. Less linear, more choice. That's been the big request. I underestimated how many people wanted to date Eshtel monogamously, since she was so unpopular in the demo of S1 nearly 3 years ago. As of the end of S1, she's still sub 30%, but apparently that was enough to cause a massive outcry. So of course I'm gonna make a change. That was badly written and I fucked up.

Here's the current standing of all the characters according to the S1 feedback form:

I see the little people fandom has really latched on here ...

Still, only a couple of my favorites aren't at least 40%, so I'm in the midority of your fan base I guess ^_^ The only one I'm really surprised about is Serafina, but I guess that probably is tied up in Cecilia's ark, so that makes some sense.

Still, not enough love for the elves IMHO.
