This might be unpopular opinion, but I really fucking hate punk rock/indie rock music. Then again, I am a huge hiphop head. Ep 9 was so refreshing with more dance/rap tracks. I get it the vibes and all, it's inspired by early 2000's coming of age american movies, but I honestly don't know any college kids who listen to rock these days

All right, here we go. It's time for the final status update for episode 10.

Special Announcement
Today, I'm pleased to announce a collaboration with a punk rock band named Dirty Toy Company.



Dirty Toy Company has graciously provided songs for Being a DIK, and their song "Over the Horizon" will be the title song of Being a DIK - Season 3 going forward.

With a punk rock sound, full of heavy and melodic riffs with attitude, I'm proud to shine a spotlight on them in the game and have them elevate it with their music.

On top of "Over the Horizon", you will also hear their songs "Stand and Fight" and "Burn You Down" in the game - starting Episode 10.

Please show our new Maggot brothers a warm welcome to the DIK family.

You can support them by giving them a follow or stream on Spotify - all their social media links can be found .

Beta testing
Beta testing started this week. Testers and proofreader are hard at work.

Bugs and typos are being found and fixed, and they have an extensive checklist of things to test.

It's too early to say how things are going, as they've only had their hands on the episode for a couple of days and have just scratched the surface.

Patch information
The full game .zip file (v0.10.0) will be roughly 12 GB and the patch hovers around 5 GB.

The patch will only work on v0.9.0/v0.9.1 releases - meaning that if you only have episode Interlude, you must download the full version.

If you don't know how to patch or if this will be your first Patreon release, I'd recommend downloading the full version, with episode 10, when it releases.

If you are patching, make backup copies of your game before patching. Never patch Season 1 & 2 with Season 3 files. Doing this will corrupt your game. Treat Season 3 as a separate game, and you will avoid these problems.

Preliminary Changelog v0.10.0
I only listed the new content in this section. The full changelog will be included in the release.

-- Changelog v0.10.0 --

Added Episode 10 that includes

5868 renders

335 animations

8 2D-art pieces

4 2D-art animations

31 songs

65 sound effects

Regarding the release date announcement
As this was the final status update for episode 10, my next communication with you will be the release date announcement. It will be a December release, and I will be able to announce the date sometime this month, so stay tuned for it.



Thanks for your tremendous support and interest during this development cycle!

Big or small donations, you guys who stick with me throughout these development cycles are the MVPs.

I hope you will enjoy the upcoming episode.

Love

Dr PinkCake
Here's the song. I'm not a big fan of that dirty lo-fi sound.

I love punk rock, but I don't like that dirty sound. Also, I've heard enough music that I can hear the guitars not strumming and the guitars not hitting the drum.
If it wasn't for that kind of playing, I wouldn't listen to that kind of music.

What episode is this?
Ugh, my memory not being what it used to be and my horrible save page naming, I'll say with mild certainty this is Episode 2. I'd say about mid way. That scene is where Bella brings you back to her place for lunch after playing Tennis doubles with her, Jill and Tybalt, if you're on hers or Jill's path. Or at the very least friendly with either of them and haven't kissed Cathy in Bella's car. If you're a full DIK and have made DIK choices towards Bella, I don't think that scene will be available either.

I'm not sure, but I remember that hangout. She is wearing a black top in it, so it's not that one :unsure:
