This week I wrote and worked on renders for some longer scenes with plenty of characters. Working with many characters always take extra time, and one of the scenes had 150+ renders in it alone which required extra focus. I'm happy with the results, and I created art for shorter scenes after that.
I've also been writing other scenes, continuing to fill the episode shell with the planned content.
PCs are chugging on with the animations without any interruptions. The render queue is still meaty. It's smooth sailing at the moment.
While animations are likely ~50% posed, renders (~1200 posed) are somewhere between 25-30% complete depending on the final count. Writing is likely near the render percentage; I will focus more on it next week.
I will mainly focus on Isabella's branch early next week. Depending on how well it goes, maybe I'll work on Sage and Others branches too.
I have been working on SFX and music during the last few weeks, here and there. 10 new songs have been added thus far.

Today it's been two months since the release of Episode 9. I would like to see the exact number of completed art by this date, but unfortunately we don't have numbers.
A lot of work has been done with animations, but this is posing, the rest depends on the speed of rendering.
But I think June-July for the release is rosy optimism, I would focus on no earlier than August, and maybe September if things go slower in the future.

The guy should just take his time and release an update on every second Christmas.
I mean, it's just a game, right?

In that case, I insist on celebrating Christmas every three months.

Ah, but Tremolo wears that leather bracelet on his right hand, so the pic isn't mirrored.

But what if it's not Tremolo but his evil, literally mirror twin? Checkmate. (also, NTR)

 

[The Glorious LIME]

dalli_x , this one is for you

 

[AchedCroissant]

You can't make content for every girl every update. The main LIs and a few more, but I see some side girls that are going to have only one or very few scenes for the rest of the game. Otherwise this is going to be madness.

Unfortunately we can't do anything and now that we probably only see one episode per year

And we don't see any movement from DPC to change that.

I hope I'm wrong

 

[toobextra]

Very sad stuff indeed.

I mean...technically Jesus was reborn on Eastern...does that count?

 

[c.mork]

Very sad stuff indeed.

Meanwhile when it comes to Rio...

 

[OFT]

at least she goes to Heaven, unlike the Justin Bieber haircut junkie, who will goes to Hell
I can't wait to watch her die, just like Heisenberg watched and let Jane die

She will probably die like those Mexican cartels do, Vinny will cut off her head

Candle in the Quinn?

Yeah, because Fuckface knows it's and for Quinn too.

No. I don't believe this is going to happen.

Sounds like DPC wants to get the animations done sooner already around 50% posed and while the render count is under that with 1200 posed those numbers should go up and plus they don't take as long animations. All and all good news

Quinn is largely to blame for her own problem. Don't tell me about her childhood. Quinn is an adult and can make her own choices. But Quinn took the easy way out. "Live fast, die young."

Well, we do not know the exact terms of her predicament, do we? And I doubt she is happy about her business relationship with Buddy for starters. I wonder what Rox would think of her daughter's situation if he was around.

The joke is that neither Quinn nor Maya can get out of their situation without help. That's what Quinn and Maya have in common.

On this I 100 % agree with you.

But there is only one MC.

Yes, only one MC. But we can take many approaches directing his steps, luckily for us. And besides, who says he cannot help multiple people at the same time? Unless the paths of those people cross each other's and then we are forced to choose, of course. But I think it is still soon to be absolutely certain about many things.

 

[OFT]

Doris sends you consolations…




Now that I think about it, that screenshot can be used as a response to a boatload of delusional posts.

Not that yours was necessarily delusional…

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

Maya? Well, Maya definitely can lead to heaven...

I have a better idea, without suicide or being hit by a car and dalli_x gave it to me with his quote about dragons and the sky.
We will save the BaDIK plot in the most humane way and send Maya into space. And she will be accompanied by another annoying character that almost everyone doesn't like.

Have a successful flight Maya and DON'T PANIC!
F95 send his regards to Elon Musk and thanks for funding the project.

Okay, my opinion on Quinn:
The Truth is she interesting character but she's also toxic in a sense that you want MC to save her but he can't. It's somewhat too late save her when she's going in too deep.
Plus, how can we fully trust her to not backstab the MC? When push come to shove; She will quickly put someone under the bus to save her ass; Riona someone who's close to her was thrown under the bus about the weed. Speaking of Riona look how she treats her making her feel like she nothing all she do is telling Quinn to cool it down because things get outta hand.
Quinn trusting Lily will bite her in the ass; I have this feeling it will especially her getting Quinn to sell the stripper drugs knowing that's Vinny terf which is causing problems already.

I like Quinn but don't get it twisted she is toxic person even if she have a soft side; doesn't excuse you from the bad shit you done. I mean the story tells this constantly with Maya, Mona, Riona, how she taking advantage of Sage who genuinely cares about her; ruin the DIK celebration; the restaurant; and other shady shit we don't know about it.

This why I always say Quinn is the boss ass bitch/ bad bitch of the story & I'm not ashamed to admit it's hot toxic mess.

Exactly. This should be a manned expedition to Venus (with the landing of the crew on the surface). As far as we know, the climate there is not bad.

Out of reaction, so:
Venus is waiting for Dawe, the most toxic character - the most toxic planet. A pressure of >90 atmospheres, almost entirely composed of carbon dioxide and temperatures up to 480 degrees will suit his taste.

Dawe? It's too easy a way out for him. He has already been sentenced to be the father of Arieth's child.
