Druthari needs to see her people for reasons. The MC is the only person who senses something is amiss and ends up going with her.
Reminds me that I am still wondering how the 'regular' world-hopping in the setting is going to be handled. And just how important or exceptional Yuka will end up being for the plot, in case the story starts moving around more.
Can't be too untraceable or unblockable, else things like dwarf lockdown and WCA having control could not work.
Can't be too tightly controllable, else Serafina could not be so light-hearted about 'escapees' like Mouse & Blossom and mention more of them laying low.
Can probably not be handed out like some garden-variety driving license due to magic skills, trade limits and possibilities like Nook's accident or stumbling on Marbog/other bad-endings-from-beyond when you take the wrong exit.
Or literally popping up in 800m waterdepth, because you had the hots for Mermaids and didnt think things through. But I guess at least that last problem should be handled as a safety measure of the spell.

[PROGRESS REPORT] Missed It By THAT Much
So Supporters will notice that there is no new build that dropped.
I severely overestimated myself. I thought I could knock out this fight scene and the remaining couple of scenes easy, and the scoring and bugtesting is already mostly done, so I was thinking smooth sailing. However, this fight scene... each attack and its three response sequences takes me as long to shoot as a full conversational scene. We're talking about 3 to 4 hours of meticulous, joint-by-joint posing. And that's AFTER I've selected an attack and planned out three different responses and which should win and lose the engagement.
I have 6 of those left to do. They look REALLY FUGGIN GOOD, and I feel I've done an amazing job of selling the absolute BRUTALITY of this fight, but FUCK is it tedious.
Hate to say this, but it's probably gonna be another week. If not 2. I work on WCA while I'm at one of my jobs, and that's 3 nights a week. I tend to get 1 or 2 conversational scenes done per night, which is equivalent to 1 or 2 attacks and their 3 responses each depending on how much steam I have. In an ideal world I'd have everything done by Monday morning, but it may end up taking me a second weekend to finish whatever I've left undone after the first weekend if I gas out on any of those nights.
This fight has taken a massive amount of work and effort, and will take even more still, but I'm hoping the quality of the work justifies the time spent on it. That'll be up to you all.
In other news, I recently learned that the program I use has some advanced mods that are paywalled, and they VASTLY increase the visual quality of shots made with the program. I'm considering upgrading, but I also don't want to change the look of the story AGAIN in the middle of an episode. I did, however, find some Toon Shaders for Ai Shoujo that completely make Koikatsu obsolete. I tried my hand at building a toon style Goblin girl, and here's what I came up with:
That's it for now. I'mma be hard at work on these last 6 attacks and their responses over the next 3 days, and if I don't finish everything then, I'm aiming to have it done on the following weekend. I am SO excited for y'all to experience everything in this update, ESPECIALLY those of you who like Druthari.
I'm also curious to hear what y'all think about the Toon Shaders. I'm considering maybe using them for a future project after WCA is further along.

That ass though, need to get that boy in a Spider-Man suit

No to toonshaders. That makers character look too cartoonish. Old look is more realistic.
On that last fight scene I saw girl on background just doing her thing while fight was going on.
Normal response would be to see what's happening, or nowadays, be recording it on a phone.

As for the toon shaders that does look good. I don't think it makes Koikatsu obsolete because koikatsu isn't just about the cell shaded anime look, it's also the anime proportions and composition. Even the koikatsu base models are better suited for the anime style, you can really see it in the noses and chins.
Does look really good though and would definitely be a good look for a more cartoonish game. I think the more vanilla looking AIS renders are better suited for Earth in this game. Might be worth experimenting with if we end up exploring a different world or something though. That's what's cool about a multiversal story, not every world needs to follow the same rules.

Toon Shaders wouldn't be for WCA. They'd be for a separate future project that I would have opted for Koikatsu on. The alternative is to wait until PassionEye is fully out and modded, because it's being built for AVN creators specifically.
Also the girl in the background is cowering in the corner. Gnomes are not used to violence.

World's Crossing Academy v1.3.0.1 brings you Season 2, Episode 3. The FULL episode. Complete with a Season 2 Episode 4 preview at the end. v1.3.0.2 patches a bug in Druthari's questline.
We have done a LOT of building up to this point. And I mean a LOT. It's been time for shit to start HAPPENING. That's what Episode 3 is focused on; resolving things we've set up and moving the world story forward. There are some MASSIVE plot points in this episode, which includes yet another secret character unlock. I won't spoil who it is publicly, but if you don't want to guess at the unlock condition/possibly miss it, you can always ping me in the #wca-spoilers-discussion channel in the

and I'll give you the unlock method. Or just hop in to chat with me, as I have the Discord app on my phone and I'm very responsive there.
The CROWN JEWEL of this update is the fight sequence. I worked my ASS off and there are over a hundred renders JUST for the fight. As promised before, the fight is fully skippable, so you don't actually need to play the minigame to advance the story. But I worked really hard on it, so I hope you'll at least try it. I added difficulty options that adjust how much health the enemy has, so you can play a fight that is tailored to your preferences. There is no penalty for playing it on Easy, but beating it on Nightmare is really fuggin satisfying. There are also infinite retries. It's not meant to be a skill challenge of any kind. It's meant to give YOU, the player, the option to administer the beatdown yourself.
I know I'm using caps a lot. I'm excited, dammit. Lemme have this.
Anyways, the point is, enough buildup. Time to make some shit happen. Really looking forward to how you feel about this update, and what little side content we managed to package in.
MASSIVE thanks to:
- Necromedes, for brainstorming, fantastic pinup packs, and even shooting some scenes for this update
- Hanamura, for joining the team and shooting a couple of side content scenes

Yup I always report the updates to the site's uploaders, and they fix the links and change the version number of the forum.
The one at Kame House was me testing some Toon Shaders for a different project. Just thought I'd share here to see what people thought

I believe Dutch is their first language, so don't be too harsh. I appreciate support wherever it comes from.

You don't remember her shaming herself by subtly threatening you in your own house? Tilai made a pretty big deal out of it lol
I love those goblin beauties
Hopefully we can cuddle up with her after the punishment, whatever it will be.
