Not that dumb, you must be confusing her with Arieth.somebody told her the skull and crossbones meant halloween candy. she's pretty dumb after all.
Well that's one way to weed out the DPC / Riona connoisseurs I guess, when they can't immediately see that's not a DPC Riona render...If it's legit, and not some troll post
this is DPC's new retaliation, for every dollar he is extorted a character diesWell that's one way to weed out the DPC / Riona connoisseurs I guess, when they can't immediately see that's not a DPC Riona render...
Apart from it not being a great rendition, who'd believe DPC would let hair clipping like that slide in a preview or special render?
Plus Riona wouldn't be seen dead without her makeup & piercings!
I might be inclined to believe that if DPC hadn't smashed out this jagged turd for 4th of July:Well that's one way to weed out the DPC / Riona connoisseurs I guess, when they can't immediately see that's not a DPC Riona render...

nothing exceptional happened. it had happened before and it will happen again, but we are talking about a very marginal phenomenon... much more marginal than what we do here every day for example...I still see a lot of drama in the comments about yesterday. Many are angry and frustrated at DrPinkCake "how dare he stop development".
Okay, I'm turning on Elena mode and try to be the voice of logic and mind. Of course, reason number one:
Imagine that someone steals all your labor, passes it off as their own, and sells it. Shasba already speaks about this. But that's not all. The scammer can do anything with the game code! Install any malware. For example Adware for the browser, which is difficult to remove (I myself struggled with this rubbish). Or even worse, malware that steals your passwords and... bank card details. And some unknowing gamer, having bought the game from that site, then writes that DrPinkCake hacks bank accounts. Imagine the reputation loss for him, it is understandable why he was in such a nervous broke and couldn't work. What happened is a criminal case. He has every right to apply to the police and the court to bring the scammer to justice. So here he has to make a choice - to pursue the criminal or focus on developing the game. I think he will choose the second, the fans gave him a good boost yesterday with their support.
As I understand it, he wants to get a response from itch.io in order to move on (hello Sage). This should not interfere with the further development of the game.
In general, I am amazed at the mess of itch.io - how can you allow a pirated product to be sold on your platform? These guys don't care about reputation or legal ramifications?
I have an assumption that this became known a few days ago. DPC didn't want to make the case public, tried to contact itch.io alone, but it did not help and knocked him out of his peace of mind. Although, if he told the fans right away, then in half an hour the problem would have been solved, like yesterday. He has a whole army. As I understand it, itch.io realized that it smelled of burning, understood how they crap and quickly reacted.
I think it would be wise for DPC to hire a lawyer for such cases - he has become very popular and there is no guarantee that this will not happen again. It is impossible to carry absolutely everything on your shoulders.
And as a result, the disaster was completely avoided. The scammer page is completely destroyed at the moment and the request gives a 404 error.

I hope that the DPC mental state has improved, but we will know for sure next week. According to new posts on patreon and a report next Friday. We will wait.
Have a nice weekend everyone and good news next week.
I despise scams like this, but I can't help but notice DPC's overreaction to the point of getting insomnia. What's wrong with this guy ? Is he so obsessed with money that even something nonsensical like this fucks him up that bad. Nobody supporting him on Patreon is going to switch to some shady account, but he acts as if his house was broken into.You must be registered to see the links
There's no status update this week because I'm dealing with a case of identity theft, which is halting development.
A user onYou must be registered to see the linksis impersonating me and selling my games illegally under the name "drpinkcakegame".
If you bought the game onYou must be registered to see the links, you might have downloaded malware. Those versions aren't mine. I'd recommend you delete what you bought, demand a refund, and report the game to staff onYou must be registered to see the links.
I'm trying to reachYou must be registered to see the linksabout this, but they are acting very slow, and the whole situation has given me insomnia and is making me feel deflated and disgusted to the point that I'm not fit to work.
You can help me by reporting drpinkcakegame onYou must be registered to see the linksfor copyright infringement, theft, and fraud.
My apologies to anyone who bought the game fromYou must be registered to see the linksthinking it was the real deal. What saddens me the most is how this scammer is fooling honest customers/players/fans with a cracked product and fake communication pretending to be me.
My games are only allowed for resale on Patreon, Steam, andYou must be registered to see the linkswith the handle "DrPinkCake".
My only social media outlet isYou must be registered to see the links
My only discord server isYou must be registered to see the links
Anything else that uses my name or product names is fake, not endorsed, and/or doesn't come from me.
Thanks for your support and understanding. I'll bring you development news again when this matter has been sorted. Hopefully, sooner than later.

DPC lives and breathes this game. It's his life. It's absolutely not healthy. So when something negative happens to it, he takes it hard.I despise scams like this, but I can't help but notice DPC's overreaction to the point of getting insomnia. What's wrong with this guy ? Is he so obsessed with money that even something nonsensical like this fucks him up that bad. Nobody supporting him on Patreon is going to switch to some shady account, but he acts as if his house was broken into.
At this point I feel like he needs therapy. He's making upwards of $10k a month from Patreon only and god knows how much from other platforms, but still he loves playing the victim. How much cash does a guy need to lead a comfortable life. He hit it big with one game and now he wants to be the next Jeff Bezos, sheesh.
Positive crazyDPC lives and breathes this game. It's his life. It's absolutely not healthy. So when something negative happens to it, he takes it hard.
He's sinking ridiculous hours into developing this game, and the game is great fun for sure, but if anyone deserves to have some sort of breakdown it'd be him.
I'll be amazed if he doesn't have a brain aneurism before he even completed BaDIK.
But I don't think it's all about money. He could seriously scale back on the episode lengths and still maintain most of his patrons. This is about being a workaholic nutbag. You don't get to be at the top of your game and be a normal person at the same time. Most people at the top are fucking weirdos. They definitely don't think the same as us normal plebs.
So if you want a great game, you've got to expect some kind of weird cunt behind it all.
Just saying.
It amazes me how some people are obsessed with the idea that he is rich and loves money. They bring this topic up all the time. I don’t know, this is some kind of hatred for successful people who know how to earn money or something else ... They scream "MONEY MONEY MONEY" all the fucking time.DPC lives and breathes this game.

You're really off about how much he makes. DPC easily makes 100-150k a month, even after taxes he'd still be in the 80-100k range. The appetite comes with eating, at this point he's so obsessed with making money that he goes on witch hunts about who leaked his previews/renders.I despise scams like this, but I can't help but notice DPC's overreaction to the point of getting insomnia.

Don't worry. He will have to do some drastic paring back on all the branching soon just to retain his sanity. The game shall end at Ep10. I will be handing the tissues out when the end credits happen in episode 10. I will save some for you.DPC lives and breathes this game. It's his life. It's absolutely not healthy.

At this point, it's an unhealthy obsession and this guy needs help.
As with most complaints, it's usually projection. People attribute their preferences and ways of thinking to others, because empathy is hard.It amazes me how some people are obsessed with the idea that he is rich and loves money.
