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

[Darkmetal]

Well to be honest I dont see a real aftermath with Quinn and Riona since it was pretty obvious what that was just a busniss transaction and they both didn't mind it. So dont see anything happening becaus of that.

Since there was a long set-up scene for inviting the MC over to cover the money shortfall Quinn/Rionna were having and the MC didn't pay anything for it (check your wallet, there is no change in the $ amount in the MC's inventory), I'm pretty sure the matter is not going to be just dropped and there will be an aftermath. Since the payment isn't going to be in the form of $ from inventory (otherwise no point in not deducting it right then like the other menu orders) - it'll be interesting to see what quid pro quo is going to be required from the MC.

Well the spark or attraction is visible,Quinn shows interest in me since the first ep,I guess maybe if you`re always rude towards her you don`t see the full picture?But how would I know such things?

Yep, Quinn is interested in the MC for sure. There are lots of signs. e.g. As the other HOTs mentioned, MC is the only freshman to be shown such favor; she specifically called dibs on the MC for the CUMpetition when she didn't need to participate personally at all (Sarah and Mel were available from her stable) etc.

Anyways

Fun game a friend put me into this game and pointed me to this forum since I very much enjoyed it.
Lots of theories I am reading through in the backlog of the last 1000 pages- going to take a while to get through them.
Is there any schedule to the updates or do the updates come when ready?

Are delays common on these types of games?
I am pretty new to this

Its not much of delay if you compare it with other games on this forum. Also dev did not give a specific release date so we can't say its delay.
It takes mostly 2-3 months for new updates to be released.Despite DPC working full-time on this game it will take some time as he has do three different paths.
And yes if you see most games here delays are common.

Doesn`t look like it,after paying for tuitions and "obligations

This is getting me thinking the whole free tuition thing Quinn has going on can we assume that she has made some sort of deal with Burke to get that

 

[Tumai]

Fans here are still in the honeymoon phase. When the delay after delay phase starts, you'll see...

This dev already has a fully completed game and is 3 updates into a new one. He's been at it for over 3 years so if there ever was "a honeymoon phase" it's long over.

 

[ScorpionZero]

It's months between updates, so all the speculation is already done by now.

The only conversation left worth having is who has the sweetest ass.

During the 2nd free-roam (1st one in the Uni), we run into Quinn & Riona exiting the restroom talking about business:


Entering it ourselves, we see that there was a man on the other side of the glory hole cubicle:


The pinstripe pants makes it 90% certain that it is Burke and not a student. Also, since only 1 girl would be needed for a take out order, there is no reason for Quinn to have come also unless there was business to discuss as well - and not just pleasure.

Burke is involved in the hoe ring. As to how, I have another theory that there is no actual money for the tuition since a glory hole business is hardly going to be profitable enough to to be worthwhile if you have to finance a private university's tuition fee out of the earnings.

The easiest way to run this - if Burke is involved - is for him to just key in “tuition fees paid” in the Uni’s record for those working as hoes. Quinn tells him which girls, he fudges the Uni's accounts accordingly and takes a lump sum payment or a cut for each record he alters. i.e. He's committing fraud. For the girls working for Quinn however, it would appear to be legit. They are simply told that "your fees have been deposited for you."

Well, sorry but no. His first game was first uploaded here in May 2018. It took him 15 months to complete it. As far as I can remember he started working on this game - he first showed us the character named Sage - while "Acting lessons" 0.6 or 0.7 was out (he hadn't killed one of the 2 main girls yet, so I was still playing it).

Check the date under my Avatar: you'll understand that I know well how people behave around here.

The only thing this makes me think of is: Where were these kinda girls from my college?? Look, they are barely dressed. Its really mostly just an excuse for a dress they wear. No dresscode whatsoever apparently. It just makes me realize why i was so depressed back then! Even then i wanted to live in a porn game reality

You must be registered to see the links

I had a good week and I got a lot of things done. I mainly focused on writing and posing renders. The dialogue is almost complete, but it needs to be polished.

The code that I have left to write is for:

- 2 free roam events

- replay gallery

- bios app

- music/sound effects code

- code for transitioning between Season 1 and 2.

- non-minigame route

- probably more code that I can't think of right now



1648 renders and 90 animations (346 seconds worth = 10380 frames, 1 frame = 1 static render) are completed.

149 renders and 15 animations are posed and in the queue.

The art I have left to produce is:

- Pose ~20-25 animations

- Pose approximately 400-700 renders.


Next week will be all about producing art and maybe coding the final free roam events.

Since you guys helped me reach 3000 patrons yesterday, I will begin writing the walkthrough, too.


Cheers

So, 3 more weeks at least, mid-december release then.

Quinn only gave them a way to make some extra money if they wanted it...

That is another question... do they get money for it?

Because conversation between Quinn and Riona in E3 would suggest they don't get any money (other than having their tuition paid), with anything extra they earned going to Quinn and Riona to finance their other enterprises... which don't seem to go well since they appear to be short.

 

[Ripe]

What part of the game presented Quinn as a person that would do such a thing?

Just about every interaction you have with her...

 

[Ennoch]

they don't get any money (other than having their tuition paid)

Having their tuition paid = getting money.
Plus i do believe that they do get money because otherwise they wouldn't be able to buy any kind of stuff at all really. Its just i believe its not the aim of the game (or the dev's intention) to explain this in great detail. The economics behind these things.

 

[Xaøs]

Animations count sure is high and there are more on the way but render counts is still pretty low. Last update had 2200 renders. As their is Major branching at start I think there will be atleast more than 2500 renders. Any idea how much time is required for one render?

I'm on the phone So cant post it but there is a render of Mc physically handing money to Quinn.image folder ep3 Quinn dorm

It's not free they have to pay,Quinn provides a way for them to earn the money for the tuition.

Burke said he slept with 2or3 studenta during his argument with Jade,i dont think his involvment goes. Further than using the Services and perhaps allowing it to go on

Yes but how much of this is Burke actually involved in was what I was asking and I have to agree with Darkmetal post that Burke is in the position to be laying some kind of part in this, but I don't think he calls the shots on this I think that's all on Quinn.

So reading that status update I was almost spot on lol

But it also means probally a second week of December release

I agree with that time frame. My best guess is that second week or any time mid December, because he's most likely going to want to take a break for the rest of December up until New Years and start back to work on the game again in early January. At least that's my guess. Could be wrong though.

I am perfectly fine with DPC taking a break after this update to celebrate the christmas and new years eve he deserves it after some hard work. And i am sure everyone else gonna celebrate the holidays as well so no one can complain if he does.

Will need to make overtime playing this game in every way possible to be done playing it before christmas

On a different note whats everyone their opinion on the reject walk do we believe anyone else will make a part in this game or was it a filler set up for lily that stripper girl only ?

Also curious about the whole Chad situation will we become friends or enemies depending the choice u make

Curious to see if we get answers to that in this update
