I'm happy knowing we helped you when you needed it and a bit sad to see you go. Just know that yer always gonna be part of WVM thread family and we'll always be here for you should you need us againHey guys, just wanted to check in one more time to say that I'll be retiring semi-permanently from this forum.
Between COVID and a personal set of issues, not really knowing what my future would hold, I had a few rough months to almost a year and it sort of felt nice to have this community to withdraw back to whenever I needed. This world of erotic VN's was pretty new to me and for a while, I became progressively more obsessed with it and it somewhat helped me get over my loneliness a lot of the time.
But since moving to a new city a couple months ago, being in a new environment, new groups of people around me, starting fresh, I've felt myself needing this space less and less and I feel like I've been visiting the forum once a day just to check my alerts but not to actually spend any time here.
So maybe I'll still be lurking to a degree, hard to say, I've definitely not given up on the world of erotic VN's for now but I just don't feel the need to check in on this community anymore. That's nothing against any of you, it's been tremendous fun and even somewhat therapeutic at times, but yeah, I've kinda got my own thing going on lately and have neither the time nor the need for this forum anymore.
So thanks to all of you for making these last months more bearable, and who knows, maybe I'll be back at some point
good luck in the future, hope you continue to prosper. <3Hey guys, just wanted to check in one more time to say that I'll be retiring semi-permanently from this forum.

I am glad you have found a new outlet, but I will be sad to see one of my favorite Stacy fans leaving the thread. You will be missed, but you better still play WVM and if we ever see a lewd Stacy scene you better come back to make a comment on it. Good luck in whatever life brings you.Hey guys, just wanted to check in one more time to say that I'll be retiring semi-permanently from this forum.

I did the starter fire pokemon for entire game. Got it strong enough to do everything by itself, except for fights with enemies immune to fire and normal attacks.MNF and WVM will take bit longer than usual. Well private Life comes first, Redheads comes second.
Now atleast sometime to figur out if i should go with Dragon/Steel, Ghost/Dark or Dragon/Ghost type Pokemon for my next run
You must be registered to see the links
Gonna start with "easy to digest need to know" information then talk about a few other things.
This'll be a pretty long post where I drop my brain on you guys a bit.
Good:
- My grandpa's first Covid-19 test came back negative
- Day 8 part 2 will release this month on the 31st
Bad:
- My girlfriend and I both tested positive for Covid, we both have mild symptoms and we're both totally fine.
- Development time took a pretty big hit through all of this. From planning out our weekend to finding out and dealing with all of the covid stuff and all of my own personal faults there hasn't been a lot of time to get substantial work done.
There's a lot going on over here but I don't want to get into my personal life too much or how exactly we're handling everything. Just know that we're all okay and we're doing everything we can to keep everyone safe.
Note: I made the Day 8 part 1 post accessible by Tier-2 patrons.
Rambling about development and my faults:
Not my best body of work these past few weeks if I'm being honest. My head has been a ton of places and I haven't been able to fully concentrate on WVM. I definitely could have done a better job and I do sincerely apologize for that.
I promised myself after Day 7 that I would ease myself back into things and I did... it's just that I worked harder in different fields of my life so I still overdid it a bit. I'm still trying to find a good Work/Life/Rest balance.
You guys are always so amazing and supportive of me taking care of my personal life but I definitely let the balance slip too far over that way this month.
I could say a million different excuses that would justify myself but the simple fact is that I could have done more without it being detrimental to myself and I slacked a bit.
I don't want you guys to think I'm being too hard on myself I'm just trying to be honest with myself and all of you.
Rambling about what to expect in Day 8 part 2:
It's definitely not as long as I'd like it to be, but I'm still working on it. I do have a pretty nasty headache and I feel very fatigued so I'm not sure exactly how much I'll be able to get done. A solid expectation is it'll be around the 200 render range, hopefully more.
It'll be whatever I manage to get done by the 31st so it may end in a strange place.
Since I do not currently plan on pausing this month I'd feel like an omega jackass if I didn't get this out.
Rambling about "A day in the life of Harper and Natalie" and the future of "A day in the life" render sets:
So, I've come to the realization while making this render set that I want to do a ton of these "a day in the life" render sets. And it'd be nice if there was one convenient place to view them. It would also help a ton if I could add dialogue to these sets as it'd save a ton of work.
So what my current plan is, is to have a separate "game" that includes all of the sets and make it to where you can choose whichever one you want to view from the main menu.
They do follow a timeline of their own. The Emiko set was for around Day 10-11. This Harper/Nat set is for not long after that. So I'd want the menu to reflect the timeline.
Keep in mind this all still needs to be made and I suck at UI. So I'll likely work with someone to make it, so it's more of a future thing.
In the meantime I'll be releasing the Harp/Nat set as its own thing.
Future "A day in the life" sets will likely be voted on. As least the majority of them.
In the "Week 1" version of the game that will be out hopefully soon I plan to add a gallery where you can replay scenes and I plan to add the character sheet. I may also add these to the base game and have them be playable from the menu but I'm not sure it's worth the increase in file size. I might make it a thing solely for "final" releases and not the "beta" versions. Let me know what you guys think
Rambling about Halloween renders:
Yes there will still be a few of these.
I plan to include them at the end of Day 8 part 2 first then release them on here.
And yes I'm still taking suggestions please feel free to either comment or message me them.
Please don't worry about us:
We may have tested positive but we're both young, healthy, and in shape. My grandpa tested negative and we're going to have him tested again to make sure but he's feeling fine as well.
Please stay safe:
We caught it despite having all of our gatherings outside and everyone wearing masks.
It only takes a second to slip and catch it.
Thank you guys for reading this:
It means a lot
I'll do better, I got too caught up in my social life this month. After months of being in a slump and everything covid, it was really nice to catch up with everyone. But I have to find a better balance and I promise I will.
Thank you,
Love you guys <3

Just started playing this recently and finally finished it. I don't know why I didn't play it sooner, it's a great game, but can we just kill Ryker already? I know the mc ended up beating the shit out of him, but I can't wait for those guys to be gone for good.

Ok ... why can Harper go to the basement like that? I mean ... before that it was such a big deal and now everybody can just walk down there? Yeah she is a trusted person, but that just felt not right.
All in all I still struggle with the game. It switches from quite boring to pointless drama. I need some tension in my games - and this game has nothing of that. It only has that strange and bizarre Ryker stuff in it. Its feels all to much. To many girls that throw them at us, to much constructed drama that all feels somewhat disconnected.
It is more a guilty pleasure for me I guess. It has its perks (a lot of hot girls and women ^^) but the whole story is just not my cup of tea.
PS: And why is the bouncer a ninja? ... or is there a reason he is wearing a mask? ... or is that a covid reference? (the pop up in a lot of games .. dunno why^^) But then they all have to wear them

Braindrop I wish you and your girlfriend a speedy recovery, seems like you can't catch a break. I know you wanted to hit the ground running after day 7 final, and it's a shame things keep getting in the way. Focus on getting better, and beat covid-19's ass worse than MC beat Ryker's b!tch ass. Get better BD!, thanks for letting us all know.

Honestly the lack of drama is quite refreshing to me, I don't like waiting for someone to NTR me or X girl leaves if you are nice to Y.. This game you can just play and not have to worry about all that BS, MC is a good dude with a awesome family/support unit. I also like the heartwarming scenes in this VN, not many others like it. Ninja masks might be explained or, easier to hide the faces (not wanting to make so many custom dudes). Anyways just my 2 cents, I guess everyone's take differs.Ok ... why can Harper go to the basement like that? I mean ... before that it was such a big deal and now everybody can just walk down there?

Personally I didn't find the game boring at any point but we all have different tastes. The girls throwing themselves at the mc is not that surprising to me, he is a famous guy, it's normal for them to show interest and he is also a genuinely good guy. Also it's a porn game so things will always move way faster than they would irl. I will agree that the whole Ryker stuff is kind of weird. Every time he shows up, things go from 0 to 100 really fast. I don't mind having drama in these games it can make them more interesting. But the Ryker stuff seems kind of out of place.Ok ... why can Harper go to the basement like that?

Hey, I don't know you but I love you!Hey guys, just wanted to check in one more time to say that I'll be retiring semi-permanently from this forum.
Between COVID and a personal set of issues, not really knowing what my future would hold, I had a few rough months to almost a year and it sort of felt nice to have this community to withdraw back to whenever I needed. This world of erotic VN's was pretty new to me and for a while, I became progressively more obsessed with it and it somewhat helped me get over my loneliness a lot of the time.
But since moving to a new city a couple months ago, being in a new environment, new groups of people around me, starting fresh, I've felt myself needing this space less and less and I feel like I've been visiting the forum once a day just to check my alerts but not to actually spend any time here.
So maybe I'll still be lurking to a degree, hard to say, I've definitely not given up on the world of erotic VN's for now but I just don't feel the need to check in on this community anymore. That's nothing against any of you, it's been tremendous fun and even somewhat therapeutic at times, but yeah, I've kinda got my own thing going on lately and have neither the time nor the need for this forum anymore.
So thanks to all of you for making these last months more bearable, and who knows, maybe I'll be back at some point
Okay, I know that was corny as fuck but I am really happy to know you are okay, that we (by we I mean the people who are actually in here a lot more than me) were here when you needed a community and to have a haven. I'm so glad you've found a group of IRL people and are able to move on. If you ever need this group again I am sure you'll be welcomed back with open arms, but I hope that you won't and just come by to check in every once in awhile. The WVM community is the nicest I've found on here, except for a few grouches that lurk around the refuse...
Take care of yourself and internet hugs to you. We're all in need of some of that right now.
Okay, now I will go crawl back into my can and resume my regularly scheduled asshole behavior.

I 100% agree with this. There are very few games like this where you can just sit back and enjoy it without having to worry about any of the things you mentioned. That is probably why the whole Ryker stuff feels so out of place to me. Most of the game is pretty wholesome.
