Dev Report #48 (August 4th, 2025)
🕑 Added 2025-08-04 22:50:42 +0000 UTCHey, everybody. I hope you're all doing well. Long time, no talk.
I'm alive, work on WVM is continuous outside of a few small breaks I took. I do apologize for being virtually silent the past 3 months. It wasn't an active decision, at least not to start it off anyway. I had felt my mental health start to decline quickly and I just decided to take a day or two away from the internet... and then a day or two became a week, then weeks, then months.
No excuses for that, communication is key and I just... didn't. Felt like I couldn't for a while. And by the time I felt like I could, it also felt like anything I would say would just cause people to get upset so I did my best to just stay quiet until the update was ready. Which, to be honest is still mostly the plan. I'm just also letting you guys know where things stand while I'm feeling up for it.
Though, full transparency. I did pop in and give a release date for last month that I missed. I had thought things were just about ready and I was feeling the pressure of my silence and how long things were taking and same old same old happened.
But despite my silence and all, work has continued. Day 37 grew a lot, some stuff got moved from Day 38 to Day 37 and vice versa.
But, to now speak about the update. It is coming soon, not setting any dates yet but it won't be much longer. The next update will be the entirety of Day 37, which is now just about 1300 renders and 30 animations long.
This update focuses on the return to WVM and reuniting with some of the girls. Most notably, Zoe, Stacy, Bailey, Rainn, Kimmy, and Harper. As well as getting back to basketball.
Furthermore, I intend to release the character sheets for the girls in the A-H name range late this week / early next week. I'll likely post a few in the discord soon and the rest when the post is up.
I also have 12 more teasers, and instead of spamming them in this one report. I intend to post 2 teasers a day to the discord for the remainder of this week, starting tomorrow. I'll then include all of those teasers in the next dev report which will hopefully be next Monday. But I'm not going to sit here and promise that when I'm not certain how I'll feel.
But part of my reasoning for this is also just to get used to posting again. After taking some months away from it, it honestly feels strange to.
And if there's no report next week, I'll just edit this post to include the extra teasers.
I'm also not making any grand declarations about anything. No promises that this is the time things will improve, no promises on anything besides update soon, teasers throughout this week on discord, and character sheets late this week / early this next week.
I'm in therapy, I'm on medication, I'm trying my best but with my track record... I'm going to keep my attempts at improvement to myself until shit actually starts sticking.
And I once again want to remind you all that all of E14 and a few small updates after will be made available to all former patrons via the discord. (Or you can DM me here. Just make sure to include what platform you play on in your message.)
Releases for E14 will have tiered access. Meaning higher tiers will have access earlier. Though, I'll be speeding up the normal time it would take to unlock for the next tier. Likely around 4 hours I think for each tier so the update would be made available to everyone on the same day. (Former patrons would receive access at the same times as the Fan tier does.)
I appreciate you all very much, I once again apologize for my silence. You absolutely deserve better than that and I'm not blind to it.
But with that, that's all I have to share today. More stuff soon!
Have a wonderful day. :)

Broken trust is not so easily regained. You set a date for teasers and have missed it already, as always. Get it together or get your résumé updated, this isn't working
Jay Weaver
