VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.10.1] [DrPinkCake]

[Redd23]

ok we need that interlude to come out, as the wild theories are reaching the new levels of craziness, while normally I try to keep up with them, right now I'm so fucking lost xd

Are there any news regarding new chapter?

Updates are every Friday. Latest one here.

You must be registered to see the links

We are getting closer to the release.

Animations for the Interlude are complete, and beta testing and proofreading will start partly today.

The biggest task during beta testing is to test the save transfer system used to import your Season 1/2 games (Patreon/Steam/GOG).

I wish to work out any kinks before a public release, hoping this will go smoothly.

This release marks the foundation that Season 3 will be built upon, meaning that testing is important and challenging even though the Interlude is shorter than previous episodes.

I'll be able to announce a release date after testing has started and I've gotten a feel for the workload.

It's been different working on the Interlude compared to a standard episode of Being a DIK. I've gotten used to making big episodes that making something shorter felt like a break.

I'm extremely pleased with the content I've produced for it and I've been able to explore completely new things, exclusive to the Interlude. The storytelling has felt natural and even though it's different it still belongs in the game. Creating this actually brought me back to the days of Acting Lessons when episodes were primarily focused on story and emotions.

I can't wait to release it, and I hope you will be as excited about it as I am.

Aside from doing the finishing touches of the Interlude, I've been working on episode 9 this week as well. I've been planning the episode, writing some base structure, and working on art and animations.

I will focus on beta testing in the upcoming week.

Have a nice weekend

Hi All! I am looking for good game recommendations. Would anyone honestly recommend this DIK game?

There's no way he's not going to link back to Vinny after all that.

After reading that page of Nick events i somehow get the idea Nick fell in love with Vinnie.... :/
But out of all DIK's it's always been clear Nick was closest to Vinnie and he's probably the one that still has most contact with him after he left the DIK's. This makes Nick the easiest most available source of information for Vinnie, but it's still hard to tell if he did anything wrong, he could have but did he?

Plexiglass makes sense at a homeless shelter for obvious reasons, but not for regular houses or a frat house.

You are correct, i never implied the DIK mansion had any plexiglass windows, i compared rubber objects (dildo's) breaking windows on the second floor with bricks hitting plexiglass, in both cases there's a factor of absorption of the impact energy.
Besides that it's throwing with an object that's only partly solid so when throwing it's likely to loose momentum during the flight aswell, due to the fact it's thrown upwards there's also the angle of impact that changes....
Just a remark i made when remembering the rocket projectiles flying in when the Jocks made their first visit

Depends what you're after. In my opinion, and numerous others, this is one of the best, if not the best, game on this site.

It's similar to the college sex romp style movies of the 80s. If you enjoyed that genre of movies, you'll likely love this game.

Here's an extremely biased, pro-BaDIK post I made a while ago, along with a bunch of other games that I enjoyed:

https://f95zone.to/threads/being-a-dik-v0-8-2-dr-pinkcake.25332/post-6120003 (note that in my post I list a bunch of games that didn't do it for me the way this game did, but all of those games are still very decent games).​

I'm going to be tough and honest here. Jill and Tybalt really deserve each other.

I think this is unfair. Jill is very sweet.

The nurse in Acting Lessons was very kind and nice also.

I agree but i doubt he's really interested, he's asking the same question in several threads.
Account made today, 35 messages right now, all pretty much the same, think a few more minutes and the usual hentai tag and the other pictures will show.

 

[znar25]

But to expel the daughter because of this is actually counterproductive. I would have dragged her to a rehab center.

It is obvious that Jill's sister found out about something the Royce family was doing. She suddenly knew too much and the Royce family killed her. We know nothing about Jill's father and have only seen the mother, who, looks like a co-conspirator for murder-for-hire and any other number of criminal acts. For all we know, the Royce empire is built on I.G.G.
Ill gotten gains. There may even be a department of justice task force looking at the family. And, maybe that is where Cathy went to work, in her "new job"; which was really her old job: a DOJ forensic accountant.

 

[znar25]

It's stupid. Perhaps the difference of cultures affects here, but we in Russia do not think so. Imagine. At night in the cold, your car stalled. You need help. You're calling a female friend and a male friend. Who is more willing to come to the rescue? Obviously a man. Of course, I myself sometimes go to cafes with guys and girls, but I can't call girls friends.
A friend for me is someone who is ready at any moment - at night or during the day, when it's warm or cold - to come to the rescue. Will a woman go with me to beat the muzzles? Will it help with the repair of the car?

All due respect to Russia, but don't you think that is a bit harsh?

 

[znar25]

From what we've seen, Jill is really vindictive and petty, so I wouldn't be surprised if she tries to drive a wedge in the Bella/MC relationship, even if you never had anything to do with her, it's also going to be another dumb written storyline, just for the sake of drama.

So basically, in the next chapters, MC asks Tommy or Quinn that he needs to talk to Vinnie, who knows a guy that can suddenly make Jill accident prone? For a special discount price.

Guy to Vinnie-- "You know that problem you had? It ain't a problem no more."

Re: Jill/Sage date vs. caring for sick friend

DPC made a mistake with this setup, IMO. Caring for sick Sage shouldn't negatively impact the Jill route unless there is a strong narrative reason in future seasons. (That seems unlikely, as both Sage and Jill are LI's.)

Instead, there should have been a pre-emptive major choice: accept Tommy's olive branch to go out to the bar with fake ID or turn him down to go on the picnic date with Jill. Then, if MC finds out that Sage is sick, there could be a second choice to turn down Tommy (Sage path or others path) or to reschedule the picnic date to the next day (Jill path but keeps Sage path open).

edit to add: In fact, by rescheduling the Jill picnic to the following day for such a selfless reason, this should HELP convince Jill that MC is worth fighting for - unless MC is fuck buddies with Sage ... then, Jill might be suspicious.

What we don't see yet is the private investigator Jill's mom hired. Note in Ep8 Bianca says something about putting a face to the name...so it is possible Jill's mom already knows--for some time now-- about MC and that he is banging Sage and/or everything else depending on the path.
Sorry, I am making this up as I go along so some facts might be missing.
And assuming a successful Jill path, wait till Jill's mom gets the next report from the private investigator, including the laser mic pointed at MC's window.

 

[znar25]

So even if she knows that Josi and Sage both sucked his dick she is still willing to give the relationship a chance if he went to the picnic. She must really like picnics.

Comedy gold !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These aren't coincidences. If you look at enough data, you will see repetition. That's life, that's not a clue.

To suggest "It doesn't matter if it's an ß or a β" is completely disregarding facts:

• It's a fact that the 'β' is what's used on the posters,
• it's a fact that there are three of them,
• it's a fact that 'β" is the Greek symbol for "beta"; and
• it's a fact that the nerd fraternity is called tri-betas.

You're disregarding these facts so you can come up with a theory that says something else.

I admit there are the occasional subliminal background images that are either a joke, or a hint at something to come. But most of the background stuff is just there to complete the setting.

I have already agreed with you that β is not the same as ß. Maybe I got carried away because an ß in German handwriting looks like β. That's how I learned it in first grade.

In the end, though, it doesn't matter. So let's just call it a happy coincidence that I came across this theory.

The plants, somehow look like cannabis plants? View attachment 1668177

That's definitely NOT cannabis

 

[sixart]

Really not?

Really not... I was about to attach a similar picture but I knew you would do it sooo... after you did and put it on display what are the resemblances between the pic in game and this one ? They are green ?

 

[Boehser Onkel]

Really not?
View attachment 1668232

it could be :
Pachira aquatica or a ficus
as you can clearly see the leafs on that plant in the picture have no spikes
makes no sense that all plants are really detailed drawn and this just not

God, why did I go to Westpoint and insist on joining the fucking Army???

Joining the army is kinda obvious if you chose to go westpoint isn't it? It's the most well known military academy...

 

[sixart]

Really not?

Let's put this in another perspective alrighty ? So Jamie or Jam-Jam or whatever you would like to call him... is the one and only member that gives a fuck about plants and botany in general in our little gang of punks but what you imply here is leading only to 2 options... I let you decide which one is worse !

Option 1 : Jamie ( as the only one with botany affinity ) doesn't understand shit about botany and we as the MC are here to call out on him or better yet teach him some ! Sounds like what a real brother would do right ?!

Option 2 : You call him a liar because you are hell bent ( even though you put up the pics yourself ) on those being cannabis... whether or not they are is not important anymore ! Sounds like a real brother move right ?!
Options 3 !!! : You accept what Jam-Jam told you ( with his knowledge AND no ill will ) and they are not cannabis !

Tough choice really !
