I just concluded an ill-advised 12-hour long marathon in which I loaded WoX for the first time and proceeded to complete two front-to-back Explorer mode runs without stopping for more than 20 minutes.

So. First I want to say HOLY CRAP IT'S SO GOOD. I WILL GUSH FOREVER ABOUT IT.

Second: I got the first ending twice in a row, despite doing as much of the NG+ content as I could manage. Could you give some insight as to how one might access the other endings? (Besides Ruthless; I can guess what that requires)

A new fan! It's been a while! O: Glad you liked your experience. Feel free to tag me in any public gushing!

For True Ending, you just need to complete three routes: Xuna, Artimis, and Naxia, because Reasons. Let me know if you want a guide on how to unlock any routes. Additionally, you don't have to complete them all in one run. Various save files or playing in the same save file over and over works just as well. Then after, get to the last cycle of the game again. Profit.

* @askdrunkbillcipher lays there, motionless. Alone. He sighs, speaking now and then when he hears footsteps, but sounding disappointed when it’s never someone he knows here to chat with him. He’s unaware of PT’s presence*

[One of his arms extends from underneath the bed and reaches for Drunk Bill's hand.]

WIP title ask game! I am desperately curious about Witcher!Buffy and/or so I'm just a dead man crawling, please!

Witcher!Buffy is what it says on the tin, but: it's a Halloween fic (because everybody needs ten thousand of those and they're so easy to do!) I'm trying to tease out of my brain exactly how I want all that to go down, and how witcherish nonsense interacts with Slayer nonsense, but the premise is simple: Buffy picks up a Medallion (Wolf, because those are the easiest irl to get your hands on) and goes as a Witcher, which lets her pretty much just be herself. Unfortunately as with all things, it's not that simple, and she gets bodyswapped with one of the few remaining Wolf witchers in the world; while he's over here NOT murdering everybody, he's also trying to figure out where he is and who he is, because now he's got some Serious Questions.

About two weeks after Halloween, with Buffy trying to handle ANOTHER increase in ALL THE THINGS, Witchers arrive in Sunnydale and the Watchers were not prepared for them to still exist, nevermind decide that Buffy was baby sister…

so I'm just a dead man crawling is a bingo fill I'm working on for the 501st bingo hosted by @clonefandomevents, where [spoilers] force sensitive Rex instinctively handles the threat of Krell on Umbara… after bodyswapping with him.

Hi! For getting your Kickstarter out there, have you considered contacting some of the bigger otome game sites and blogs? Like English Otome Games, Blerdy Otome, or Otome Kitten? Or even posting on the otome game subreddit? I'm not sure what the gender proportion of the love interests in the game are, but those places will definitely all be able to give your Kickstarter a big visibility boost!

Definitely, and thank you for pointing out more of the places I can go! We'll need all the help we can get. Hopefully we'll have more bites than the last reach out. \o/

A good friend of mine recommended Women of Xal and I’ve been devouring it!!! Soooo good and the perfect VN I’ve been searching for!! While I havent completed all of it I have started recommending it to my other Visual Novel enjoying friends!!! Keep up y’all’s amazing work 💖

I'm glad more people are enjoying the game! We're definitely trying to make sure the next game excels on all fronts! Thank you for your support. It's very appreciated. <3

[plottwiststudios]

chance of you seeing this before the sale ends is low... but any chance that women of xal will work on 64bit mac TT -- TT im a mac user and its heartbreaking to me that so many VN's on my want to play only seem to support 32 bit mac apps

Good news, I see it! Bad news, I'm at work and won't be able to figure that out until we'll after the event. D: If it's jake with you, I'll DM you if/when we have a 64bit for Mac.

I heard your opera battle song with the e guitars. If I wanted to commission you for one of similar length, would $25 dollars be enough? I'm willing to spend a few extra dollars for opera vocals if I need to.

^ That song? ...Commissioning Mailenba cost $300 for this track. I am not the composer for you.

Hi,I was wondering where else your game would be available?I don’t have steam or itchio?And it looks very cool

Currently included in a Ko-fi bundle where you can pay via PayPal or card, I believe. Though note it's more expensive (additional $5) until I make the game available standalone there. It's here.

Itch.io does not require a registration, last I heard.

Maybe so in regards to the general population (but not my supporters! :> ), but the "Also" segment you added about the artist(s) helping me create our games since I can't draw at all, well, in your own words, sucked. Enough for me to crop it out and consider it unworthy of being shown to those not me. Criticism is an artform, and you have a ways to go before you're ready to make yours as effective as it can be. If that is at all your goal. From one person giving unsolicited advice to another, focus on techniques that optimize the receiver's receptiveness to your feedback. You'll be amazed by the results!

The actual content behind the ranting will be considered and the (good) bits of advice shared with the team. But not with your words.

[plottwiststudios]

Hello! I just want to say I absolutely adooore WoX and I'm still getting through all the content xD However...I'm sorry in advance for asking, but will Steam achievements be implemented in the future? I just looove seeing those things pop up whenever I achieve some milestone in games! I saw a post asking about it in the Steam discussion section but your reply was around 1 year ago, so I'm not sure if plans have changed... Thank you!

Greetings! We're planning on doing so on the next big update! (Intended year: 2024. Intended.) Glad you liked the WoX experience! Let us know your thoughts on it if you ever get the time and energy! WoXII is currently taking notes on what worked! ' v'

[It's been a bit since PARANOID-TRIANGLE has agreed to "help" TOM with his cause. Sure enough, the researcher had stuck true to his word, bringing PARANOID-TRIANGLE food and water at regular intervals, as well as providing the child with a cot for him to sleep on. Despite this, it's still a prison-like facility. It isn't that pleasant, no matter how much one would like to believe.]

[...Huh. Somehow, a moth has flown into PARANOID-TRIANGLE's cell. A purple moth.]

(@usac-official)

[He stares at the moth curiously. He seems to have chosen to sit on the cot pretty much full-time now that it's there.]

... y'ello?

[paranoidtriangle]

[Footsteps ring out down the hall as someone leisurely approaches PARANOID-TRIANGLE's cell.]

(@usac-official)

[He tries to move close to the door, clinging to the wall nearby, ready to RUN.]

[paranoidtriangle]

[TIM is in the forest near the facility. He's searching for someone he hasn't seen in a while. Little does she know, she won't find him here. Not at the moment, at least.]

[TOM has been treating TIM and ELIZABETH strangely. There are parts of the facility he's locked them out of. He won't let them walk down certain hallways. It's as if TIM and ELIZABETH have been put on some sort of occupational suspension without actually being sent home. It was peculiar.]

[TIM knows that he and ELIZABETH are still allowed to interact with THE-PHANTOM and ALEX, so there's no issues there, apparently. She's had her research turned in on time, so that's not the problem. It's as if TOM is trying to hide something from TIM, but what? And where was his kid? Did he get his potal gun fixed? Or maybe...]

[...A chill shoots up TIM's spine. Perhaps PARANOID-TRIANGLE's sudden disappearance and TOM's strange behavior are connected somehow. That thought terrifies TIM. Even worse, she has no way to prove it. It's not like he can walk through walls or knows someone who can.]

[...Wait. She does know someone who can walk through walls. Maybe, just maybe, he could get them on his side, and have them inspect the closed-off space themselves.]

<——————>

[There's... something watching PARANOID-TRIANGLE. He can't see them, but it's obvious they're there.]

(@usac-official)

[He's crying on the floor, wedged into a corner to "hide" as best he can.]

[... But the moment he feels himself being watched, he launches himself into the middle of the room, growling and snarling.]

[paranoidtriangle]

[BECK cautiously approaches PARANOID-TRIANGLE yet again.]

...uh... hey. I, uh, wanted to ask you something.

(@beck-playfair)

[He jumps, growling and holding his hammer threateningly- but relaxes when he recognizes Beck.]

... er... sorry. you scared me... what is it?

[paranoidtriangle]

Billy? May I… speak to you?

-@papafords-childrenshome

as long as it stays through the phone. i've got guards now! :)

[paranoidtriangle]

*he peeks around the corner*

So you’re… another kid… hi

- @tipsybillcipher

EEP---!!!

[He turns around slowly, his eye wide, until it settles on Tipsy and he seems to relax again, granted not to the same degree.]

... i thought there were supposed to be guards at the doors?
