I hope the end of 2024 is treating you well. Amidst work, I've had a couple of nice days off celebrating Christmas.

This week, I added music to all remaining scenes and will have to analyze if more is needed in some areas. At the moment, 42 new songs have been added to episode 11. Sound effects still need more work, but not a lot.

I added the lewd events of episode 11 to the Stats app and will ensure that it works while playing.

I've played through the episode three times this week. I played Others, Josy & Maya, and Sage branches and noted what to fix. I'm encountering fewer issues with every playthrough and making good progress with the polishing.

Josy & Maya's branch needs some more work in one area in particular, but it feels good other than that. I have only played one variation of the Others branch so far, and it also felt good. I will have to play through more variations to get a different feel for it later. I finished playing Sage's branch today, and I need to play more variations of this branch as well.

To take a break from playing the episode, I'm parsing the dialogue to tighten and correct it. I've parsed about 100 pages of a 400-page Word document and will continue until I finish before I start playing the episode again.

Next week, I will play through Isabella's branch and likely revisit Others and Sage branches with new variations.

All my systems work on animations, except when I must re-render static renders to fix something. Four different lewd scenes are rendering across the PCs, and the render speed varies from scene to scene. Some of the animations rendered this week were longer than others, ranging from 4 to 15 seconds. At this time, it's tricky to predict how many animations will be rendered weekly.

55 animations remain in the queue; unless I miscounted, there should be 392 animations in total for episode 11.

Have a great end to 2024, and I'll see you in 2025.

Thank you for being so supportive during this challenging year.

Love

Dr PinkCake

Damn it, my copium ran out.... Unless there is some timeline altering event that suddenly drops update before the year ends... It's possible you know!!

...buuut on a bit more serious note, hope there will be some love for Nicole route since she had no previews I imagine that whatever content she might have would be spoiled with a preview. Worst case scenario DPC forgot about her, well... Then I would start learning how to tie knots of various kinds for various purposes........

So true. It's one of the reasons I think he might be secretly gay. He kinda acts like one of those who tries to be as manly as possible to hide that he's in the closet.

that would be craziest plot twist ever lmao

For those who doesn't know what he means, he lost a close family member so he's been rather down the last few months.

I'm starting to believe you're on this forum under the influence of drugs. First you say Zoey is going to die (disrespecting my boy Geralt From Rivia) and now you're saying Tommy is gay.

What does a year without BaDIK updates do to a modafucka!

Honestly it’s not a big exaggeration at this point. She doesn't come across as just a side girl like Sarah or Mel do. The last two episodes if you’re on Others and a Quinn, Riona, Lily or Nicole fan their content doesn't feel less satisfying on their mini branch and it feels like Fuckface is actually heading somewhere with them. Riona was a highlight of Ep10 for example and if you choose to "roll" with Lily she's a girlfriend in that episode in all but name.

DPC committed to the Others path in a big way. It isn’t a throwaway source of lewd scenes. Quinn, Riona, Nicole and Lily in particular are treated well on it.

Imo it feels like there’s 4 layers of characters now.


Main Girls (Their own branches, exclusive relationship possible and all hooked into Maya's story)

- Bella
- Jill
- Josy
- Maya
- Sage

Important side Girls (side girls that have their own little path and seem to be heading towards a relationship)

- Lily
- Nicole
- Nora
- Quinn
- Riona
- Zoey (I'm presuming here)
- Probably Cathy as well since she has a path variable

Side Girls (Reoccurring scenes and/or friends but seemingly no relationship or route)

- Camila
- Heather (I'm presuming she has more scenes coming)
- Jade
- Mel
- Sandy
- Sarah

Throwaways (One off scenes)

- Ashley
- Becky
- Kylie
- Mona
- Rose
- Tara

Practically Bestiality

- Mdame

Some like Jade or Heather may get their own little path as well. It's a good thing to see because it plays to the VNs strengths of characters and reactivity. A lot of the side girls like Quinn and Riona have ended up people's favourites and it looks like there will be a pay off for that.

March for all animations, if we take 5 animations/week. Plus beta, update is late March it seems

That's while also doing static renders at the same time. He usually speeds up to 45-50 animations per month when they are done. At least he has in the past.

Hey, it's just theories. "Might be" means there's a small chance, not "he's definitely gay". But I stick with that my Zoey theory makes sense.

 

[PereFourreAss]

Yeah but he also completed 99 static renders and all of them are done, so it just animations left.

Well, he also added 3 animations since last count and finished the static renders. It should go must faster now that the static renders are done.

True, but even if he doubles the speed, adding the two weeks of beta testing there's around 7 weeks left. My bet was February 14th back in October but that's the most optimistic scenario now

 

[Krytax123]

that would be craziest plot twist ever lmao

Nah it would just be dumb and feel like a bad tv show

Tommy is way too obsessed with gals and its not just talking the talk, he walks the walk too. and furthermore we already had this "twist" with chad, it would be so lame to do it again.

Oh look every male but the mc is kinda gay, what a surprising avn development (NOT)

 

[saynotoNTR]

Hey, it's just theories. "Might be" means there's a small chance, not "he's definitely gay". But I stick with that my Zoey theory makes sense.

If you had said that Tommy has a crush on Josy or Quinn I would believe it, but... gay? DIK Tommy? Short fuse Tommy? Tommy THE DESTROYER? Dude...

 

[shazba jnr]

The mc is such a wholesome cunt. If this was any other game on this site, he'd be fucking them while they slept.

3 gay dudes wouldn't be "every male".
And that's the thing, he acts overly heterosexual in an exaggerated way. In TV-shows that's usually a dead give-away. Since you say there's no way, then obviously it would be a surprise.

If you had said that Tommy has a crush on Josy or Quinn I would believe it, but... gay? DIK Tommy? Short fuse Tommy? Tommy THE DESTROYER? Dude...

How much have we seen him do and how much have been talk? Before Episode 9, have we even seen him with any other girl than Heather?
Him having a short fuse is evidence for, not against. In TV-shows and movies, gay people in the closet are most often aggressive, have a short fuse, keep calling things gay, all the bragging, the way he treat women badly, him not satesfyinmg Heather, all to make sure nobody suspect anything.
Again, I'm not saying he is, just that he might be. It kinda fits. But since DPC already had a big reveal he proberbly won't be. Unless it was a way to throw us off. Who knows.

 

[Darkwen the Josy lover]

If you had said that Tommy has a crush on Josy or Quinn I would believe it, but... gay? DIK Tommy? Short fuse Tommy? Tommy THE DESTROYER? Dude...

I would find it more believable Tommy has crush on Quinn

 

[Steuan]

Are you implying Bella is not a MG because she didn't slept with the MC inside the tent? Spock, ATTACK!!!!

Hahaha. I wouldn't dare. I just didn't want to put her pic with others because of the reason you said. I mean -of course- Bella's indeed a main girl.

The mc is such a wholesome cunt. If this was any other game on this site, he'd be fucking them while they slept.

Well... to be honest I was expecting a Lily lewd scene inside the tent. But you know they just went to sleep. Another waste of opportunity in EP11 if you ask me.

They're all fucking gay...

• Jamie's gay, that's why he dates a girl who looks like a guy (he wants to fuck the Alphas in their tight asses, he said so specifically)
• Nick's gay, he totally pines for Vinny
• Chad's gay for Troy (or is he just gay for pay?)
• Troy's gay for Chad
• Dawe is gay, he can't get it up for the gorgeous Arieth
• Tommy's gay, that's why he's so angry all the time, trying to pretend he's banging all those bitches is just getting to him
• Tybalt's gay, no straight guy has a chiselled bod like his
• Burke is gay, otherwise he'd be fucking Jade every time we see them
• Leon's gay, he dresses up like Lily in the hopes of getting other guy's attention
• All the jocks are gay, they hang out together admiring how swoll each other are
• John Boy is gay, that's why he fucks the androgynous Elena
• Neil is gay, no straight guy is that wholesome
• Jonah is gay because he fucks other dudes
• Magnar is gay otherwise Sally wouldn't be neglected and acting like a cunt all the time
• Patrick is gay, I'm just saying that as an insult to Patrick (not that being gay is an insult, I mean, I just, yeah, you know what I mean...)
• Stanley is gay, it's best to get gay bouncers so they aren't thinking with their dicks on the job
• Vinny is gay, that's why he grew the beard to look more manly
• And of course the mc is gay, because he's too in touch with his feeling to be a manly man.

The game actually had a few working titles before it was released. "Liking a Dik", and "Being a Gay", in the end DPC combined them.

Yeah it's a repost, I can't come up with new material when the game hasn't provided anything for over a year.

 

[Crusader of Romance]

Well... to be honest I was expecting a Lily lewd scene inside the tent. But you know they just went to sleep. Another waste of opportunity in EP11 if you ask me.

I'm sure he could have delayed the release a few weeks to make one if people just asked him.

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

Hey, it's just theories. "Might be" means there's a small chance, not "he's definitely gay". But I stick with that my Zoey theory makes sense.

Even Dalli theories make more sense.

Wouldn't Dawe be more likely to be revealed as gay than Tommy? Your description fits Dawe more. Also, if DPC reveals any other LGBT characters it will probably be Jamie/Leon (as bisexual).

Even Dalli theories make more sense.

We all did ( I'm still pissed off about the Quinn is craving for the Chick crap but I'm sorry for all the rest ).

 

[Mordreut]

Why would he? The whole point of her is that she has no path and therefore is quick and easy to make content for.

She has not path yet (And I hope "never")
I remember a theory about Madame being in the background of the restaurant scene in episode 10, Sage path. It was a little crazy but if there is a 0.00001% of Madame path, I prefer she disappears even if I have to wait a couple of months for episode 10

Betray Tommy? Broke the DIK code ? That's a great idea.
I would have done it without hesitation.
I would betray not only Tommy, but every fucking asshole in this game.
They're all real freaks. They're worth it.
But I would do it not for pussy, but for my own pleasure.
I would made Heather blow and then tell everyone about it. To watch these assholes kick each other's asses.
I would do it, but I can't.
My Goddess forbids touching anyone at this party.
The word of my Goddess is my law.

I can't remember the last time I agreed with you in a post, but....

I have finished episode 10 and started posting here since october and I am starting to develop some crazy theories . I can't imagine people who are waiting episode 11 for a whole year

Some like Jade or Heather may get their own little path as well. It's a good thing to see because it plays to the VNs strengths of characters and reactivity. A lot of the side girls like Quinn and Riona have ended up people's favourites and it looks like there will be a pay off for that.

I think there is a Jade path (I remember reading about Jade variables in season 1 or 2)

If you had said that Tommy has a crush on Josy or Quinn I would believe it, but... gay? DIK Tommy? Short fuse Tommy? Tommy THE DESTROYER? Dude...

They're all fucking gay...
