A Closing Note


Hey, everyone. Once again, just wanted to thank everyone for the response to the game and the 1.5 update. As some of you noticed, it was certainly rushed in places, and much of the content planned was scrapped (not just the sub-stories either). I apologize for the disappointment that surrounded this last release. But, for those that enjoyed it, I'm glad the mod was able to continue entertaining you even so far past its initial release.

That being said, I am officially cutting ties with this mod. By that, I mean that no more content will be added, and no more patches and updates will release. If there are bugs left over (and there definitely are), consider them as features. I simply have no more energy to devote to this project anymore; it is finished.

One last thing: I have noticed an abundance of fan Scholar mods and projects. That's cool, and I'm glad everyone is having fun. I want to note though that I am not affiliated with any of these projects, nor will I ever be affiliated with any of them. Like I said, I'm done with Scholar. Also, to those mod creators, I respectfully request that you credit all the artists involved in the original Scholar if you use, modify, or redo assets from the mod. They worked just as hard on the mod as I ever did, so they absolutely deserve to be credited if their artwork is used once again.

And that is all I have to say. With Scholar finally behind me, I've been able to turn my attention fully to work on the actual Pointless. I hope everyone continues to look forward to it! And good luck to all creators who still feel like there is more fun to be had with Scholar. Just remember: overambition will kill your motivation, as it did mine.

Thanks for playing, and have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Hi, everyone! I just wanted to give a little info on the next update, since it's been a while: it will be released in two parts. The first is an overhaul of the base mod to tweak and add many new things. The second will be something... else. You'll see...

Hello, everybody! I am very excited to announce the release of the 1.5 update for Scholar of the Wilbur Sin! This will be the final major content addition for the game. The team and I worked ourselves half to death on this; so please, enjoy!

We've officially crossed the threshold. After a stressful period of rapid implementation and bugfixing, I can confidently say we are moving on to the last stages of development.

Wait patiently, my friends! The time draws near!

Ah, the innocence of youth.

Many new secrets of the past await in the next content update. Will you uncover them...?

School has once again become a serious blockade to progress, but it is being made, albeit slowly. Many minor additions have been made, including: new and reworked moves, fixed bugs, and a general overhaul of the mod's balancing. Exciting stuff!

Hi, everyone! We here at the SotWS team have been hard at work getting the game's final update ready. No promises, but it'll be done sooner than you think! In the meantime, here are some not-so-friendly faces that didn't quite make the cut for the update.

Hi, everyone! Today, as I promised prior to Version 1.5's launch, I will be showing off some content that was scrapped due to the downgraded scale of the update. Look below for more details on what was planned!

Hello, everyone.

With a heavy heart, I announce today that Scholar's last major update is being heavily reduced in size. What this means: the second part of the update has been cancelled, and the first has been truncated. More details below.

Lovely night to look out on the horizon, isn't it? And on the horizon, February approaches... Stay tuned, my friends!

So, now that the hype of the initial release has died down, I'm happy to say there is still more on the way. For now, the regular updates will cease (barring the discovery of a major glitch), but rest assured, big things are coming. Stay tuned...
