Well I for one am delighted with this news, and its nice to meet you as well Mackenzie.
I for one agree that if he spends less time reading all these comments he'll be able to focus more on his work, and yeah lets face it, everyone bogging down on him won't make it any more fun for him to continu especialy with the negative time he had in the past 2 years.
What i do wanna know, and if you can relay this question to him, will his work end up on Steam?
There are several other Ren'py's out there, Being a Dik, Leap of Faith and several others as well, and I for one would love to see WVM in that list as well.
and if he needs an incentive for doing so, well it means a extra form of income, an extra push to actualy Hold him accountable just like you're doing for him now.
Plus I don't have a creditcard, so it means I rely on iDeal here in holland, and steam supports that.
Last but not least, i know that braindrop had a difficult time the last 2 years, and it kinda showed in WVM as well, the big fight that i was worried about before it even happened, heck everyone even said, no he is a pushover, he doesnt have the power, dont worry about it, but it happened anyways, just as i feared.
Will WVM reflect more positive times now as well seeing things are looking up for Braindrop?
Greetings Riggnarock.
I for one, agree...
Well, this sounds good on paper. Hopefully we can start seeing some progress. Sooner rather than later. I defended this Dev on Harem Highlander's page oh here because I have faith in this Dev. Please don't let my faith die off. I love this game and hope that it continues. And congratulations on getting hired.You must be registered to see the links

Hello all!
There has been a lot happening behind the scenes and I'm here to tell you about some of it.
First off, let me introduce myself.
I'm Mackenzie. (Actually, that's my real name.)
Braindrop has hired me to be his community manager and it's nice to meet all of you.
I will be the one making all of the posts as well as answering any questions that I can. Additionally, I have some other roles that we'll get into later in this post.
Let us start with explaining our plan for these Mind Drops going forward.
Mind Drops
With Braindrop stepping away from his public role to focus on the game, you may be left wondering how we plan on keeping you all informed on the progress of his development.
Our current plan is to have bi-weekly Mind Drops. (So the next one will be on September 7th)
In these posts I will relay the information I have received from Braindrop about how much he has accomplished as well as any relevant info that needs to be shared.
We intend to share the usual as far as render counts and such but we also plan to add additional things like detailing a lot of the work that can go unnoticed.
We want to keep this first Mind Drop relatively short so we can focus on the necessary information but in the following one we plan on showing a lot of the work that went into making the background characters for the upcoming basketball game.
Updates
So, let me be blunt.
One huge thing that Braindrop made clear to me when offering me this role was that he did not want a PR person to hand wave away all of the mistakes that have been made and all future mistakes.
His words were that he wanted someone to "Keep it real".
A big fear of his was that if he stepped away he would lose a lot of "pressure" or "sense of accountability".
So, a big part of my job is holding him accountable to the things we've discussed and planned out behind the scenes.
Let's be honest. As far as the update schedule has gone... it's been awful. I know it, you know it, Braindrop knows it.
That goes for game updates as well as side content.
We have both sat down and planned out the next few months.
Another role of mine is helping organize out the files and what not for the updates. I've been given access to all of the files for Days 32-38.
Our plans change mostly everything that had been stated before. So forget everything that was said previously. We feel it is best to start fresh.
We will share that our plan is to start small but consistent to build up some momentum.
We will not be sharing any release dates yet... but be on the lookout for something very soon.
Side Content
Our plan is to get start releasing side content again sooner rather than later.
Birthday renders and client polls will be starting back very soon.
We also plan on adding a few different things that won't take much time away from development. Things such as "Additional teasers" posts as well as more silly things like hair swap renders.
There are a few other side things in the works but our focus is on getting the main game back up and running before delving any further into side things.
One final note on side content is that the Character Sheets will be updated after Days 32-38 are finished and released. They will be updated to the end of Day 38 and the intention is to update them after every in-game week.
Thanks for reading
That's all we have to share for this first Mind Drop.
We do apologize for how long this took to get out, there were plenty of issues with granting me access to the patreon and SS accounts. Things won't take as long moving forward.
We understand the situation we are in and how we're perceived right now. Our goal right now is just to get back on track however we can. Braindrop and I are forever grateful for all of the support through some of his worst times.
It's a new day and we want to fix things.
More soon.
Thank you guys and it's nice to meet you all. I will do my best to answer any questions you may have.
Can't wait for the next update and the Pride and Accomplishment post. In a year.Every one of the Characters got a Birthday post since BD put anything meaningful out there xD

This reads like one of those "we are sorry posts" any AAA game publisher like EA puts out there after their game was unfinished and bug infested, just to change absolutely nothing on about how they handle these things or even preventing them.
Gullible sopanoobProbably one of the best game I've ever played.The plot, the graphics, dialogues are all amazing. Just keep doing what you do dude and please don't listen to some random idiot's fetishes etc and end up spoiling the game. I'll be honest, I've never considered supporting the devs(as most of them are milkers) but your work makes me change my mind. Still in college tho, but I would like to support your work as soon as I am able to. One more thing, I've read a comment here stating one of your future goals is to change the game into sandbox. Humble request,please try to keep it a VN as imo it'll lose it's charm if converted to Sandbox. I'm in no position to make any demands but please consider this request if possible. All in all,you're worthy of every single penny donated to your Patreon and I believe that'll be the case in future too. Don't push yourself too hard in fulfilling your fans requests. We all would love to see the game grow. You and this game have a lot of potential and considering the fact that you're doing it all by yourself makes me even respect you more.

Maybe it helps, maybe it doesn't, but I bought a 1TB flash drive off Amazon for like 20$ and I keep the zip files for games i like on there, because I only have 256GB storage on my laptop. This way i keep a couple that I am playing around and then ones I want to try or play again on the thumb drive until i need them.Can someone please re-upload the win/linux one to mega if possible as i lost it all when i had to get a bigger hard drive in my computer thanks for any help, not sure if it was asked before if so i apologize
The new version contains the same game as that versionCan someone please re-upload the win/linux one to mega if possible as i lost it all when i had to get a bigger hard drive in my computer thanks for any help, not sure if it was asked before if so i apologize
I know just wanted to download the compressed version of the game and it was the season 2 version which is the newest one for now of the game but i will download the full version if i have to but will wait for now to see if someone re-ups it.The new version contains the same game as that version
Season 2 includes season 1I know just wanted to download the compressed version of the game and it was the season 2 version which is the newest one for now of the game but i will download the full version if i have to but will wait for now to see if someone re-ups it.
He wants a compressed version of season 2Season 2 includes season 1
Because people in this forum for some reason like to report the compressors MEGA links, so that we have our account suspended, why do you think no Compressor is including Mega links, people repay us by reporting our accounts, if Mega doesn't work there's another link there, I will only add more hosts when I have the time.I presume (I might be wrong) what Raio10 was trying to point out to you was that your compressed Mega download links are no longer available. Both Win/Linux & Mac.
