VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.10.1] [Dr PinkCake]

[Talmadge]

Okay. So the only mini-game I just completely hate is the ones where you have to keep the courser in the path. I don't even get near the edge, and it says I fail! What is with that? I really don't get it. Wish there was a way to cheat just on them.

Unfortunately, DPC will never confirm, for the well-known fear of disturbing players' dreams, this obvious backstory

DPC will never confirm because there is no world where that could happen that idea is just so stupid, Chad and Troy having a baby together has a better chance of happening and that's at 0

there is an " invisible timer ", may be you not fast enough. but yeah it can be annoying.

There's another prominent game about a step brother and sister, and they have an active Patreon.

Patreon's checks aren't perfect. A lot of people do a lot of shit there for a long while before being kicked. And they let people off for absolute BS excuses. "It's not your mom it's your landlady." "The kid may look 12 but it clearly says he's 18."

DPC would likely get away with it, but as a whole the game reads as non-incest.

Tommy specifically seems to actually see Josy as his sister. Josy is quick to correct people and say that they are step-siblings, but Tommy always leaves the "step" out. According to Pete Josy's step-mother Monica was very worried about her. He could of course just be straight up lying about it or trying to convince himself, but then Josy could be twisting things too.

Mostly I see the characters' last names as trivial details, but Tommy's might actually be significant. If his last name has been legally changed to "Taylor", it might mean he actually likes his step-dad and step-sis or at least supports his mother's happiness. He is just a bit tsundere about it.

Mere speculation obviously, but Josy's backstory has gotten way too little attention, so I kind of expect there to be some twist to it. That or Monica turns out to be insanely hot.

Press SHIFT + G and make some settings adjustments. RenPy default perfomance settings are shit and source of lags & choppy animations and playthrough, transitions and things like minigame troubles you mentioned. By default the "powersave" mode is always enabled. Also in most cases GL2 renderer are set by RenPy by default and it's sucks for NVIDIA GPUs (you'll get accidental freezes from time to time and will have to alt-tab to recover).

Here is how to tweak any RenPy game properly (it saves settings per game, not globally, so try the same in other games you play too):

Monica is Madam

I considered you a much more smarter person, but I guess you're not different at all

I didn't need you to prove my theory...anyway, thank you and sweet dreams

Now THAT is what I call a twist!

To me it seems Tommy had a really shitty biological dad, that's why when MC calls Tommy to be a lousy father he said the Apple doesn't fall far from the tree. But Tommy gets infuriated on mere thought of getting horny about Josy And is pretty big on "Family comes first". IMO Tommy really appreciates that Pete came in his life and likes Josy like a sister.

Also DPC Ain't taking even a small risk with incest bullshit even if it's step. I have seen few game devs on f95 crying how Patreon fucked them over funding due to step relations. Moreover BAD is based on college comedies unlike the obvious retarded generic AVNs.

think about it, it would explain how Tommy managed to get a shitty paid job at pink rose, nepotism.
His mother works there, and she said a few nice words to the management.

Thanks. I'll see if that makes it easier!

LOL, you mad bro?

Seriously, you throw a lot of shade at girls in the game. Some of it's going to come back around.

I kinda got the impression that Madam Rose owns the place. Which would only make the scenario more plausible.

 

[The Krogan Dude]

She wasn't a virgin the first time with MC. Maya didn't pop her cherry with a dildo so it had to be someone, maybe many someone's.

OH and I just had a thought. What if the hostility between Tommy and Josy is because they fucked in the past? That would be hilarious

This sounds like speaking from experience.

you not gonna turn this on me dude, no matter how you try.

The game I was talking about is CS. It's pretty prominent in the genre and it's unlikely that Patreon hasn't noticed. The sibling relationship IS the central theme of the game after all. And I don't think Patreon would cancel a cash cow like BaDIK over a technicality.

Steam also has a similar rule and yet they also accepted CS

 

[Hawke84]

You're just mad she annoys Jojo, and tried to join the throuple lmao.

Quick, Maya or Becky. Don't choose anything else or I'll punch you!

Becky for sure ... TOP Tier

Patreon is more likely hand out free passes for bogus technicalities. So long as the game on their site is about a "landlady", it doesn't matter how obviously it's supposed to be "mother" or how easy it is to find a patch to reset the game to what was originally intended.

The gap between what is absolutely safe and what definitely gets you banned is wide and the deciding factor is how well the dev gets along with them.

Step-incest is technically against the rules but they only invoke it when they want to get rid of a dev.

DPC probably doesn't have anything to worry about. The question is does he want to include it in the game. I get the impression he doesn't but what the hell do I know. And I'm not being sarcastic there. I really don't know a thing about him. It's just the vibe I get from the game.

take it easy guys there is no need for hostilities.

 

[anonnyscouse]

There was zero incest in Acting Lessons back when the Patreon rules were significantly more relaxed (especially since the recent ToS update which has tightened things up on incest) and there's been no hint of incest in BaD so far, not one LI who could conceivably be related to the MC, why would DPC suddenly throw in incest between an LI and a different male character (something that would also piss off the anti-NTR crowd even though it would have happened prior to the events in the story)?
