I've been coding for the better part of last week, but I also wrote some story and posed art.

Mostly, I've been working on an updated version of Brawler this week, and I need a few more days of work with the remaining art before I am done with it.

It's an ambitious upgrade of this mini-game, which is now taking its third and most likely final form.

Even though it's been remade from scratch, it will feel familiar but improved and expanded upon. I'm very pleased with how it plays.

Here are some screenshots of it.







As you may have noticed, I've been powering on with mini-games lately since I know I have to do a few more for episode 10. I'm trying to get most of it out of the way early, so I can focus on writing and creating art soon.

After Brawler, there's one shorter mini-game and some final work on a scientific mini-game left to do.

I have a healthy animation queue alongside this development. It allows me to focus without being interrupted.

I can also notice how the usual stress I feel about Custom renders being completely gone now that I have removed that tier reward.

I've been able to put an unhealthy amount of hours into coding this week because of this, and I love every second of it.

I will have the first part of the Q&A posted sometime next week. I'm splitting it into two parts, like last year's Q&A.

First, there will be a part about your Being a DIK questions, and after that, a part about game development. Thanks to everyone who submitted questions!

A special render poll is currently ongoing

I'm already looking forward to the new Brawler. Finally some decent opponents that you can use to build up for a fight against Caleb.

As far as I know, he stated he doesn't want to make a game after BaDIK. He's only goal now is to se BaDIK completed.

When did he say this? I believe this is his primary job, and hes already making bank. Hes making around 300k-700k a year and I dont think he'll get a better gig if he takes up some other job.
I wont be surprised though if DPC takes a hiatus or drops the length of future games adter completing BADIK.

Troy is a jerk, or at least appears as one, sure. But I don't think hitting him after someone else has already hit him before is necessary nor rewarding in any way. And Tybalt is such a pitiful individual... Besides, responding to his slap with a punch is a bit too much, I think. The other three, however, sure, they need to be put on their place.

Regarding Troy, I'm always a little apprehensive when choosing to fight him. I don't know if he got beat up by the Jocks for trying to stop them from stealing the MC's guitar or if he just got beat up because he's an asshole.

Regarding the other fights, I believe that all of them should happen. If the MC keeps running whenever someone tries to start a fight with him then he's still the same scared kid he was in high school.

A CHICK MC who doesn't fight in any of those fights I mentioned hasn't evolved at all as a character, in fact he's regressed.

The MC himself told Isabella that bullies beat him up to find out how much quiet he could take and now that he's an adult he still takes all the shit they throw at him?

I don't know... That's my opinion... Ignoring fights goes against the development the MC had in relation to the bullying suffered in high school.

I saw it mentioned twice, but I have no clue where and when.
Don't quote me on it, but as far as I know, that's the current plan.

Caleb falls down heavily, so Muay Thai/Kickbox fighter and spar. It's not just about beating Caleb either. MC vs. All Alphas. :eek::devilish:

But we all know the biggest battle MC has is: Defeating the inner manwhore

The smart way is to avoid fights, but be ready for them at any time.

This is not just right in BaDIK, but in real life too.

Well, I mostly agree with your points. But don't you think that responding to a slap with a punch is not proportionate? Unless the one giving you the slap is one of those guys that end up winning slapping contests, that is. :ROFLMAO:

You did not understand. As Rox says, "The rat was the message." It's not about violence it's about making it clear that you're not a pushover.

But for that, you should first know who the rat is.

A little tip for life. The people who usually make a thick pants have nothing on it. The people who remain rational and calm, they still have an ace up their sleeve.

At the current release rate, BADIK won't finish for at least another 5 years if not longer. Any plan now for a 3rd game, including whether to even make one, is too far into the future to be a firm plan now. 5 years ago DPC hasn't even released the v0.1 of AL!

To even bring the subject up now is rather silly.
