It's the final post of 2021! I hope you've had a great time over the holiday.
I've been working on animations, sounds, and music this week.
I've been making longer animations in general for the episode and a higher ratio of SFW (safe for work) animations than I normally do. I really enjoy it!
So far, I have added 18 new songs to the interlude. I might need a few more before I'm done with that.
2022 is soon here, and the year will start big-time.
It's finally time for DIKs on Steam and GOG platforms to continue their adventures! Season 2 will release worldwide (at least everywhere I'm not banned) on January 6, 12:00 AM CET.
I will focus on final preparations for Steam and GOG releases in the upcoming week. Hopefully, the release will be smooth sailing so that game development can continue at full capacity after that.
Something else to look forward to is the patron milestone reward. The patron milestone poll ended today, and bundle number 2 came out on top. I will create every submission in this bundle and post them on Patreon for every patron, starting in January.
Also, in January, I will post another Q&A submissions post where you can ask me anything related to the game and the game development. As usual, it will be a spoiler-free Q&A, and I will answer as many of your questions as possible.
It's almost been a year since the last Q&A and making it an annual activity feels right. Some answers might have changed with time, and I might feel different about some responses today, so repeat questions are welcomed.
Soon, we'll leave 2021 behind, and I, for one, can't wait. 2021 was a year of very mixed emotions for me. But on the positive side of things, I reached some huge milestones this year.
2021 was the year when Season 2 was fully developed.
It was the year when GOG handpicked Acting Lessons and Being a DIK to their selection of games.
And it was the year when 18343 of you guys supported me at once. This is close to double the number of patrons at the end of 2020 (9288 patrons).
I still remember celebrating hitting 1000 patrons and how big that was for me. I would never have been able to imagine this.
Happy new year, DIKs! Thank you for all your support!
I hope that 2022 is better than recent years, in all ways imaginable for all of us.
I look forward to bringing you the start to Season 3 and another year of game development!
Love
Dr PinkCake
