Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well.

I haven't posted in a while here, I dislike doing so unless I have something direct to share instead of "Still working on it" as I tend to just share those in the discord. But I understand that behavior isn't productive and needs to change.
I have been very vague about things as of late as most of the technical issues stemmed from a personal life update that I don't wish to share much about. I told myself that the best course of action was to pause pledges and offer refunds while I just fix the issues that occurred and move on from there as from my viewpoint that's the only positive outcome.

2025 so far has been just like 2024 for WVM, both on this side and for me. A lot of the same issues popping up and me reacting poorly to them.
Including the issue of me getting worked up and wanting to change things. Around the 19th I was still fixing issues which included having to re-render a section of this update and I started tweaking things again.
I will not defend that, I understand that I've acted very irrationally around this scene. It isn't perfectionism or anything like that, there's just a lot tied up in things and it's very hard for me to describe as a lot of it has honestly just been me trapped in my own head and me letting outside things influence everything. Overthinking and second guessing every little thing. I had similar issues with the first exhibition game but for honestly entirely different reasons.
I do intend to talk more about my struggles with the scene once things are released and I can reference things and give context without major spoilers.
Sitting here thinking about it rationally, I can clearly see that this whole fiasco has not been worth it at all and I just need to release it and move on.
Which is a conclusion I've came to many times, but as release time nears irrationality would take over and I'd panic about things and act like a complete fool.
It has to stop.

But yeah, similar to the past a few well intentioned minor tweaks slowly turned into tweaking entire sections. As I fixed the actual issues I now had to piece together and finish my changes.
It's been a long struggle with a scene that genuinely didn't need or "deserve" the struggle. Which has also helped fuel the flame as I know no matter what the scene is it will not reflect that struggle.
As time has went on it's become more clear that the issue hasn't been the scene itself necessarily but instead issues with myself and my perception that I've attached and projected onto the scene.

And at the end of the day I do not matter, obviously you're all here for the game and I'm very tired of talking about myself in these posts and not just the game.
I'm as excited as all of you are for the return to WVM where the harem fun can continue and that's all I care about right now. I have to stop getting in the way of that.
I gave myself until the end of the month to finish it up and accept it for what it is and finally put it behind me, as it stands right now I'm re-rendering some problem animations in the Jasmine scene. I am not sure if all of the animation render work will be done in time tomorrow as issues or crashes are common and could occur.
If things go smoothly I should be able to release the rest of E13, if there are issues I will still release whatever I'm able to including the rest of the Daliah scene.

So tomorrow evening / night there will be a release. I'm hoping it will be everything but at the least it will be the rest of the Daliah scene and up to wherever I can post in the Jasmine scene with anything left to follow coming in the next day or so.
Pledges will be unpaused after release.

And once again I'd like to remind all of you that pledging right now is not required it is merely to show support right now, all of E13 + E14 will be given to former patrons via the discord. I will also be giving a handful of releases after E14 to former patrons as well.
I'd also like to remind everyone that anyone charged from December 1st, 2024 - January 5th, 2025 is eligible for a refund. Please just DM me here on patreon.


Thank you all so much for everything, I am sorry for putting all of you through this. I wanted January to be the month where I turned it all around but it was just more of the same. I don't want February to continue that trend. I have to be better and I'm sorry that I haven't been.
I will talk to you guys tomorrow.
All this talk about needing to change his behavior is meaningless until he actually DOES it. Whatever he has right this second, he should release now. And then he can post his usual crap, so that it might have a shred of sincerity.

As for animations or whatever that have issues—assuming it's real—just ignore it. Patch that shit later, just give us the fucking content already, Jesus.

He's broken his word so often about multiple aspects of the game, why choose to stick to his guns now? Just have Dahlia reveal that his father was actually an alien with some sort of pheromone alteration, and it's passed down through him. It'd get this nonsense over with and he could get his head out of his ass and get back to releasing content.

It may actually make a decent plot twist, but I'm sure he'd find a way to completely fuck that up too.
Why " Just have Dahlia reveal that his father was actually an alien with some sort of pheromone alteration, and it's passed down through him. "If that was the case when the accident happened the truth would have been revealed

I suppose from the new picture of Jasmine that the date that she dressed up for is a pimento loaf and cheese sandwich?
Is that with mayo or peniscillian?
I think she was picturing a date somewhere servers would bring your food to you at a table indoors maybe even.
Ham & Mayo sandwich but it's okay! it's truffle flavored mayo so it's fancy!

You're operating under the assumption that alien means drastically different from human, but they don't have to be.
Also, could just go secret government cover up, and that Dahlia is really just his handler now that he is older and is being swarmed by ladies.
It could be space magic that no human understands.
It could be gas from Jupiter caught the rays of the sun, bounced off a secret satellite launched by the soviet union back at earth and irradiated him to cause the change.

I said it a few days ago, it doesn't need to be that deep... it doesn't have to be deep at all. It does need to be entertaining though.

Well since we are talking about fantasy world here i was working under the assumption that Alien mean a life form from a different planet, he could look exactly like a human but have more physical strength and intelligence.....
Don't know if you have watch the show called Kyle XY it's a tv show ,a bit old

Can't say I'm familiar with the show, but yes a different planet.

Could also be from an alternate dimension, forgot to add that one above. No face, magic pheromones that instantly put non family into overdrive for attraction, and 0 chance of going home, so just "keep on keeping on" basically.
