Yep. That means your save doesn't contain the lydia_met variable, which means it's from before July and you didn't start a new game. The 1.0 release had a lot of new stuff under the hood, meaning you need to start a new playthrough. The good news is, 1.0 means the systems and backend are all finalized, so there will be no more restarts. Everything before 1.0 was early access and was still in development, so restarts were necessary as we added new systems.


This is part of why I dedicated an entire update to moving the main story forward. Several things need to happen for Nook to go back to normal, and gaining access to the Rebirth Ceremony will open up side stories for a lot of the other girls, too.
ok thankyou for the reply have a great day and thank you for making the game

CAUTION! THIS IS NOT A PORN FORWARD GAME!

There, I fixed it for you. :p

Don't even try to front. I've played through Jade's content. :devilish:
Also fair. I typically try to differentiate WCA from the "porn game" label primarily because when players see "porn game" they expect a lot of things that WCA just does not do. The perfect ThunderChad McChickMagnet MC whose dick is half the length of his arm and who has ladies fawning over him no matter how badly he treats them, an H-scene every 30 seconds that's just one position, 3 speeds, and bust... and horrible story lol. I try not to associate WCA with those assumptions as much as possible because god, I have played some awful ones. Heck, even some of the good ones still have a lot of these pitfalls.

Hey, there are some new critical decisions in Season 1 that affect your access to characters like River and the Harpy Girl, so each save file may or may not have those characters enabled. The name of your character will also be different from what you would have named him.

I made you a save file with all content enabled, with the default name, though, in case that's what you wanted.

Thankyou very much VictorSeven !! :)

Glad to see the update, thanks for your work!

The small complains I have about the new stuff:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Great feedback. Our Naiad friend's story was written before we got Nook back, and before I realized that these stories needed to be main story agnostic lol. Will adjust.

Yup. At the time, I didn't want to do a ton of walking renders, because you don't have to show every little thing to get the point across. So I had them transitioning to the next place off-camera and capping off each section with Aurum's observations to indicate some understanding and intuition on his part. It was very early on in the story, and I wanted to fit in ways to showcase his strengths and weaknesses since you're essentially getting to know the character you're playing in the whole first season, but without bloating it with generic renders like most other AVNs if that makes sense. Now that I look back, I realize it honestly wouldn't have hurt anything, and I wouldn't need to shoot the entire walk to the next area, etc. I've learned a lot in 3 years.

Deliberate blank screens are often interpreted as missing, cause unfortunately when they are missing that's often how it looks. Maybe take the standardized test route and in the top corner of a black slide put.

Thanks! I'll try that tonight. I somehow doubt the boss would be super pleased with me futzing around in a porn game on company time! :LOL:
VictorSeven I deleted the previous copy, re-downloaded from the newly updated itch.io link, and tried again. Unfortunately, I also had the same problem again. I even deleted WCA's Saves folder from the system Ren'py folder, just to make sure it wasn't a problem with incompatible older save files. The game should act as if it's a brand new install. I also dug into the app contents and, while I'm not a programmer by any means, I couldn't find anything that looked to be missing anywhere. I even downloaded the PC version to compare the contents. (Once you get into the actual guts, Ren'py's program struc†ure is basically the same no matter the platform.)

It's frustrating because I can't tell what's happening at all. There's no Ren'py log, no system log, and no error codes, so I have no idea where to look. I can tell you I'm running this on MacOS 12.7.6 on a 2015 Core i7 iMac and that I've played dozens of Ren'py games on it (including prior versions of WCA) with no problems. Sorry it's being a pain!
