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

[felicemastronzo]

I started viewing his status updates in Feb which was around 3 months after Ep6 release. Since I didn't follow his status updates before that, did he always give a proper status update regularly, after a new episode was released?

I am just guessing but maybe he doesn't have much info to give right now cuz he is just focusing on making the new content. Since he mentions that it is a new environment he is working on and unexpectedly it's talking time for rendering the animations, maybe he himself doesn't have the idea?

Maybe he is trying something new with animations? for eg, The Madame and Lily body animations were totally a new concept.

Spoiler: I will show Lily cuz no one cares about Madame :D

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

It took 5 months for ep7 and the last 2-3 months were full of Info about how much he had done for ep7. Maybe he will give tons of Info in upcoming months and I hope he does

since chapter 5 I would say the updates have been weekly, before that I can't say but I think it was the same.
for chapter 8 they are rather short and vague, seeming more like a due act than real information

this overview of the characters was often used in chapter 7, even on Lana in the flashback to create suspense about Lynette's return...

probably DPC tends to get bored and that's why lately he tries to introduce new things in every chapter (minigames, fast navigation in free roams, mobile phone, 2d renderings etc...)

Oh, thats nice, what about the free roam though?

you have to play the whole free-roam, you can only skip the dialogues, but you have to go through all the stages.

 

[shazba]

Oh, thats nice, what about the free roam though?

With free roam you just use the bottom right navigator to jump quickly between rooms (if you're talking episode 6 or 7 free roam) and you can still zip through the dialogue with the TAB key.

For other free roams (like the library and the Prep's mansion) you still have to navigate your way around, but once again, you can speed up the dialogue.

The good thing is, only dialogue you have already seen is sped up, if you make a different choice and new dialogue comes up, as long as you haven't got "unseen text" highlighted in the options, it won't skip through anything you haven't seen before.

It's easy enough to check, just do a thread search for "status update" by N7. There will probably be a few gaps where someone else posted the update, but should be good enough to get a sense of the frequency.

don't bully the boomers...

 

[Kellermann]

Why would he do that? The reason any developer gives an update is so you get a feel for how the development is tracking. You're suggesting he stopped giving updates because it allowed people to see how the development was tracking?

Doesn't make sense.

But I do feel his updates lack a sense of enthusiasm. I have this dread feeling that DPC is starting to lose momentum. It's completely unsubstantiated, but I feel it nonetheless. Hopefully Ep8 proves how seriously off the mark I am here.

This worries me as well. DPC has been working like a mad man for the past several years, hardly any breaks, and cranking out an incredible amount of content. I hope he doesn't lose his focus. If this goes past season 4, then we add years on to the development cycle and goodness knows how many gigs. Shit, players will be able to finish real college before the game is over. And my big worry is episode dev times extending well beyond 6 months. As much as I enjoy BaDIK, I feel like a season 5 (20 episodes) would just be dragging the story on unnecessarily. DPC does have a tendency to stretch out plotlines for longer than they need to be.

Can you imagine still no solid information on Bella's mystery by season 3 end? Or any revelation about the stalker/traitor? And Maya's tuition/daddy drama? Or if Jill is still a virgin by then? Personally, I'd like to see the game wrap up no later than season 4 end (episode 16) and then move on to DPC's next game after he has time to refresh. That is still many years away! I know a lot of people would like to see all four years of BaDIK college, but the game/setting might go stale by that point, especially if some of these mysteries aren't solved soon and new ones introduced.

I have no idea about Jill's virgin status reveal, but her full lewd scene will be game's finale. That's a given by now

what are you talking about? in AL DPC wrapped it too fast and the last 3 updates where just exposition and although it hit the feelings there was no choice like tracking down Leah and take her on a romantic dinner in a park at midnight with a lake offer her some champagne with strawberries in whip cream invite her to skinny dipping and then wrap your fingers around her neck squeeze as hard as you can and put her head down the water for half an hour hoping that the drug you laced her drink with stops her from screaming.... shit i think i just came!

I've had the same feeling. The updates have been less informative, certainly less so than for ep.7, and it's hard to pin down a reason for it. Maybe he knows there's still so much more to do and doesn't want to spell out that it's going to be an even longer wait (hope not).

Having said all that, there was the following very positive line from him at the beginning of July, which, if true, suggests he's still motivated and enthusiastic: "As always, I'll try to keep you updated to the best of my abilities. Every day I can't wait to wake up to continue working on the game, which accurately describes the state of the game development."

Can't ask much more than that, can we.

We're talking about BaDIK, you're on some weird AL tangent. AL is trash. I hammered the space bar through most of the final third of that game. Bored out of my mind. Zero feels because I disliked the story and characters. BaDIK is so far from AL that I can't even believe it was made by the same man.

 

[godkingxerxes]

What do you mean here want to have? It will serve to the development process of the poly relationship history. The MC must also accept that Josy and Maya also need their private time.

Difference between letting your girls have girl time, and creepily watching them while rubbing one out.

It's Cuck fantasy, if Pinkcakes would actually do this I have no doubt in my mind that this patron would have asked for Jacob fucking Josy/Maya while the MC watches.

Somehow you misunderstand how I meant it.

It is a development process in which the MC must also accept that the girls also want to do something without a tail. If all 3 love each other, this should not be a problem. After all, the MC had the opportunity in EP to fuck both individually. In Ep8 Josy and Maya will do a round alone and later they do it in threes. Guess why the MC is going into gender studies. Equality.

 

[DwayneDude]

how many months that drpinkcake need for the latest update?

I disagree with every single word you wrote.
Look what you did shazba , don't be the The Boy Who Cried Wolf . Somehow even the slightest, negative behaviour is more effective influence of peoples , than any positivity. There was nothing that indicate what you said, and look..... Kellermann went full Negative Nancy

Does it count as a round alone if MC is in the same room though?

These are requested fan renders, it's not part of the story.

I don't know where you got that from.

But for someone so possessive of Josy, you sure do like that cuck lifestyle.

. Aren't you mentioned once that you are a "She" ?. IF I mistake I apologize.

But you cleary misunderstand something here. . No healthy heterosexual Man, wants to see their girl getting fucked by another Man, or participate a Threesome with 2 Man, and 1 Girl. But every man Dream is 2 girls fucking each other, anyone who say otherwise is lying. .
Lesbian are the most popular Genres of Porn. And then Interestingly Hentai is the Second

 

[hakuna-matata]

No more clucks?

Maybe he doesn't want a threesome with Quinn and another woman but yes with another man

If I was a she, my name would be godqueen, no? lol. It was a joke when I said I had 7 kids from 8 daddies, people assume I a woman, they didnt consider that I have an army of adapted kids to clean my house.

Might be every man dream to plough two girl but I don't think lesbian is.

Also nothing wrong with 2 guys 1 girl, I know you want MC/JB/Elena next episode.

No more clucks?

I figure a lot of the Clucks will be at the Halloween party so Pinkeye doesn't want to spoil the costumes. But there has to be some that aren't plot important, it's weird that we haven't seen any.
