Differences in dialogues and behavior. DIK Zoey beats the firefigher who harassed her and is neutral if you beat Oscar. Chick is softer, doesn't prefer to use force and will judge you for it. It is too early to talk about a global difference, because her arc is far from over.
I thought DPC missed a chance for DIK MC with the Oscar thing.

I would have liked a chance to hit Zoey while the MC blood was already boiling.

Something like 'you don't know me anymore' would have been nice.

EDIT: I meant hit her with a zinger/comeback. Not physically punch her.

The year is 2025, and Interlude is still a subject of heated debate. Of course, spending 3 months to introduce a new important character from the MCs past, who will affect the future history is a terrible disaster on the background of global 10-15 years of development. 1.5-2% of the general time development.
We had to look at those ugly, rat faced, diseased ridden, hepatitis crack heads.

Do you see where I'm coming from now though. It's not "I hate Zoey", it's that it's frustrating in how all that time was put on an Interlude that even in the code is so cut off and unrelated to the main game that it really struggles to justify itself, while episodes 9 and 10 have then not helped by failing to give her any real focus in the main game. The examples you mentions are so minor that they're the sort of things I'd expect to be set by the Episode 3 flashback having had a toggle choice between setting her as DIK or CHICK as fuckface remembers her, not a separate release that took months to put together.

So far there's a reason why on every playthrough I've just pushed her towards Jacob regardless of having an LI or not, because her interactions with fuckface so far are so shallow and background that it just puts her on the same level as a Heather or Mel as far as I can see.
It could have been done better, but Interlude served its primary purpose in introducing Zoey. A 7/10, but it served its purpose. I think we should move on, not chew over "Interlude this, Interlude that" three years later.

Release week is soon upon us.

Beta testing has yielded great results, and the testers have done a thorough job with the episode.

Here's the updated changelog after the weeks of beta testing. It's most likely final. *Crosses fingers*

On top of helping me find bugs and polish episode 11 further, there have been some improvements to the overall season during beta testing.

Added Episode 11 that includes

7113 renders
392 animations
6 2D-art pieces
2 2D-art animations
42 songs
32 sound effects

  • Fixed a bug that caused studying at your desk to fail if you opened the phone while choosing what to study.
  • Added a tracking system for Seen dialogue to the Stats app.
  • Added buttons to cycle the girls in the 2D art app.
  • Reduced the animation times of tiles appearing and disappearing in Triple Tile.
  • Fixed an issue with scrolling while browsing the phone gallery that would cause the phone to close.
  • Fixed an issue with the quick menu that set it to disabled after viewing credits.
  • Menus in Brawler can now be closed using the middle mouse button.
  • Improved the text spacing in the Bios app.
  • Fixed a bug where the final free roam event of episode 10 didn't end if you failed the main task.
  • Fixed an issue with money messages staying on screen when fast traveling from the desk area.
  • Fixed a missing image error for an animation.
  • Fixed a bug with the on-screen text message conversation that could happen if a game was saved at specific points during these conversations.
  • Fixed an issue that prevented Envy's events from being added to her Bios history.
  • Fixed a rounding issue with the Happiness % in the Party Planner mini-game that caused a mismatch in % gained or lost during evaluation.
  • Fixed an issue with missing text in the Stats app and Party Planner tab when participating in the CUM-petition in Episode 9.
  • Fixed an issue with the Party Planning mini-game that didn't update the emotes correctly according to the happiness level.
  • Fixed an issue with the episode report of episode 10 that would show a choice that potentially didn't happen for Lily.
  • Slightly increased timer for the English class.
  • Fixed an issue potentially causing a scene with Sage, Maya and Josy to be skipped if the player didn't spend time with Zoey in episode 10.
  • Corrected typos

Thank you for your support!

I look forward to Friday and I hope you'll be joining me for the release.

Love

That was bad wording by me :( - I meant hit her with a zinger, not punch her.

"You don't know me anymore."
Seriously ? :unsure:
Are you sure that's what it's called 'hit with a zinger/comeback' ?
Dude, that sounds like pathetic bullshit. :confused:
Farting loudly would be smarter than saying something like that.:whistle:

Telling Zoey that she doesn't know anything about MC would be a slap in the face when she just claimed to know him.

"What makes you think you know me."
"You don't know what you're talking about."
"You left, you have no idea what I'm like."

Anything along those lines would hurt Zoey.
