200,000 units sold of FreshWoman on steam. Now Imagine those numbers for Being a DIK and DrPinkCake still cant hire a team. Really saying things like he wants to have control over his own game. He will be the boss. Everything that will be in the game is what he wants.
Really he should stop being greedy and hire people when his game probably sold more units than most Indie developers.
He is just milking people at this point and if he makes just 10% of what he makes now it will make no difference on the game.
Call him out people.

Status update Episode 9

but where does this DPC fixation on not giving spoilers come from?
it seems really incomprehensible to me

think of the major plot twists we've had so far, how many renders were so explicit that they could really spoil the effect? very few

instead now it seems impossible for DPC to give a preview that doesn't risk revealing too much (and in fact he has already given us two pairs of renders from the same scene, Josy and Maya and the two with Sage, and one that is a natural continuation of the closing of the chapter...)

the next one is the first chapter of the new season, it is really hard for it to be so full of twists and turns

anyone have the official walkthrough bought on steam? how is it to play with it, it just opens that pdf while playing or is something like the mods from this site
It opens a form of edited pdf when you press G, so it's nice and handy. The best part is that allows you to jump to relevant section, based on where you are in the game. If you can't be asked to look for all renders or buttons like me, it also makes that part of the collection quick and painless.

He could drop a preview, put a spoiler tag on and be done with it, let people decide if they want to see it or not.

It's pretty funny that the "team" that released Fresh Woman could only create a Bollywood parody of BaDIK with a primitive plot where you rewind dialogs for porn scenes. And in four months, the "team" creates short episodes for an hour of gameplay. And PinkCake alone, for a long time, makes a masterpiece what worth to wait.
"dev miking" - that trolling line become boring

Unfortunately it seems to me that even a November release is a very optimistic scenario. Development times are getting ridiculous at this point.

I've been wondering... Would anyone think any less of the game if the mini games, the special renders and all the bells and whistles were absent? Sure, it gives the overall work a high polish, makes it stand out production-wise but at what cost in time? Of course I can't possibly know how long designing and implementing something like the Brawler or the Mansion mini game takes, or rendering the specials, but if such things add a month or two in development just so the game is 1% better it isn't very cost-effective. Even if the dev has the motive to prolong production, they risk displeasing and losing patrons if the development time becomes unreasonable. And adding a few weeks development time for a new mini game and a new series of special renders is unreasonable imo.

It goes without saying that this is my personal opinion and my estimations could be way off. But I think most of us are here for the story and the characters (and the smut) and would gladly trade all the extras for a few weeks, hell, even days less development time.

The extras may be for premium patreons who knows
