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

[dalli_x]

I still have high hopes for Lily, provided DPC doesn't go off the deep end with her drug/undercover drama. She is basically the closest thing to a DIK side LI that I have left in this game since I don't like Quinn and no longer pursue Chick Sage.

I also think Lily is top notch and definitely better than Quinn because Lily smokes weed from time to time but doesn't do anything else illegal. She's also not as gruff as Quinn.

With the exception of Josy and Maya, the other girls are made to want to fuck the MC, but they are not allowed to. I have more fun making the girls squirm like fish out of water, and Josy/Maya will be all the more interested in the MC because he is so popular with the other girls. Accordingly, hopefully they will experiment more with sex, which could lead to maybe one or two girls being invited to a foursome. This reminds me of the Rooster Cluck from EP6 when Maya and Josy had a movie night together with Camila and Mona.

My hope, yes, is that Elena and John might be interested in group sex activities that could end in a good double penetration. That would be something my MC would only do with the two of them, first because Elena and John really love each other and there would be no fighting, and second because John knows how to use condoms.

 

[DarkKiller]

In almost all renders, she looks even older than Bella.

There's a theory right there, maybe Jill is a 40 year old moonlighting as a 20 year old trying to find the perfect college prince she never had

I spent last weekend continuing to write, but I have been working on art since Monday.
For the last two weeks, things have been running smoothly without any speedbumps when it comes to hardware/software issues.
I've only been focusing on producing static renders, and it is so much fun seeing ideas that became writing come to life with the art.
My strategy is to work on a scene-to-scene basis, trying to complete full scenes before moving on.
I will continue working on art for quite some time now and most likely prepare new animations next week to further build up the render queue that is finally depleting (9 animations are left in the queue).

Survey
I am struggling a bit with selecting previews for this episode because it's centered around Halloween, and there are possible spoilers when it comes to Halloween costumes. So, I wanted to post a survey and check what you all think about this.
Are you ok with costume spoilers? Would you rather not see any of it until the release, etc.? Please, help me understand what most of you are interested in, to plan further previews for episode 9.
Explanation of the options (if you need it).

• Costume spoilers = Previews that might spoil what a character wears for Halloween
• Special renders = The art in the Rewards app, unlocked by finding magazines, etc.
• Custom renders = The art in the Mixed category of the Rewards app, unlocked by completing Pack Quest
• Main characters = Your playable character, Josy, Maya, Isabella, Jill, and Sage
• Side characters = All other characters than the above
• Environment = Previews that show off rooms and scenery used in the episode
• Lewd scenes = Sexy/NSFW pictures
• Story scenes = Pictures teasing events that might happen in the episode

Please, select everything that applies to you.
When it comes to previews...

Still very little to work with. We know DPC has completed a minimum of 17 animations from his queue in the last two weeks, which is a minimum average of ~8 per week (about what it was last week). Static render data is nearly two months old at this point, so who knows where we're at on that front. Here are the charts, for what they're worth.

Spoiler: Charts: Everything Old Is Still Old

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Based on the animation data we currently have, we're on pace to match Episode 8's total just about the start of 2023. Granted, DPC can improve his pace if he focuses on animations, but it would be nice if we had a better idea when that might happen. Static renders are in better shape, but that may just be because DPC doesn't talk about them. In short, we're still effectively flying blind a long way from release. Under those circumstances I see no reason to be optimistic about the development rate. So I'll stick with an October guestimate, plus or minus a few months.

As for the poll... I still don't understand how DPC can be so stymied by this. Are we really not getting a scene where the MC sits down to talk with Maya and Josy (one way or the other)? Please don't tell me he's going to wait for the party to do that! Likewise, does the MC just not see Jill for a few weeks right after they officially start dating? That would make no sense, yet why is it so hard to give us a Jill preview if they do see each other? We're still weeks away from the Halloween party and there are all sorts of loose ends hanging around from the alleged Crossroads. How can this be difficult??

I'm exceedingly nervous about this because I just can't find a satisfactory explanation for DPC 's dilemma and I really dislike the unsatisfactory ones. This is such a bad time to be months away from the next update.

 

[PashafromRussia]

Give me my fucking Zoey preview and then do what the Patreons tell you

No, Pink will present a new preview of Madame at the Diks party tomorrow. Tommy decided to make fun of MС and ordered Madame instead of the Pink Rose girls.

You'll have a hard time convincing me DPC didn't choose this specifically for the Halloween party. He could have picked any number of other houses, but he went with one based on an iconic haunted house from one of the scariest movies to come out of Hollywood at the time (it scared the fuck out of me when I was younger).

So, when I saw this:

Couple this with the update in which he said he's "been working on something new, pretty cool and perhaps even a bit scary," and I'm pretty excited to see what he comes up with.

No, I don't *necessarily* expect anyone to die at the Halloween party, but...

Scary Scene + Haunted House Reference + Halloween + Axe in the Theater Room Door = Party Horror Theories

(Fuck you. Leave Bella and her axe out of this. )

Perhaps he wanted to draw attention to the game with this pool. After all, Pink's interaction with the audience leaves much to be desired. Or it's another sign that Pink is slowly but surely burning down.

DPC tells us why he is making this poll. He doesn't burn out, he has a problem because probably all previews could be spoilers.

"I am struggling a bit with selecting previews for this episode because it's centered around Halloween, and there are possible spoilers when it comes to Halloween costumes. So, I wanted to post a survey and check what you all think about this.

What is the spoiler of the Halloween costume? What difference does it make if we find out what costume Maya or Bella is wearing before the game?

 

[sixart]

I have more fun making the girls squirm like fish out of water

My maaan !!!

Part of the Halloween fun is finding out what the girls are wearing for the party. So it would be a slight spoiler to tell us now. We already know what Riona is wearing and I've had trouble sleeping ever since that spoiler aired.

Regarding burnout (or the lack thereof), your clue is in the very first sentence: "I spent last weekend continuing to write." He's working the weekends too. He fucking loves this shit. I work weekends, but I don't have the luxury of being my own boss and have deadlines set by others.

No, the good doctor is not burning out, he's still perpetually on fire.

 

[Master5043]

I actually have appreciated your discursive analysis and it is fun too.

I think in regard to Jill, she is impressionable, a do-gooder, pretend white knight, admits she is stubborn, and yes can be painful at some times.

Although, I give her some credit for; stopping to see if MC was OK with the wedgie, defending MC against Bella's initial hate of MC; standing up to Tybalt when MC got bashed to take care of him; giving excellent personal advice to MC at the beginning of the tennis date. Helping out Josy. Caring for Cathy's welfare with the nude photo issue.

Although, I think the big shock to her attitudes was when MC saved her at the recital. I think that was an important watershed moment to trust MC.

I get it. She can make some bad decisions. But given her renown "naïve" trait, I suspect there are opportunities for her to change. MC indirectly gave Jill courage to verbally crush Tybalt. That has to count for some growth.

Of course we will see and a DPC plot can deliver anything; including fire.

I don't expect everyone to be perfect and if I was judged on all the dumb things I did when I was young, I wouldn't score very well against some of the characters.

Also on the MC-committed to Jill path, I don't think Bella will allow her to do something really stupid.

WHAT SHOULD JILL DO?

1. Order a Pizza, (extra cheese and peperoni)
2. Yell, "Fuck me!!!! FUCK ME!!!) over and over again so the whole DIK house hears it.
3. Get the fuck out. (MC is finished...GO!)
4. Tell MC she wants to taste all the nutbutter.
5. Bark like a dog.
6. Now that she is MCs girlfriend, lend him the keys to her car. He has to "work" at the Pink Rose".
7. Call Bianca and hand the phone over to MC.

8. Call Tybalt and let him watch

I'm wondering what the results of the new pool are now? Hey I know you know!

Here are the poll result for now. I’m surprised by a couple of things:

- Many people don’t want to see any costumes spoilers. Well, it’s kind of mixed… I kinda get this, not wanting to get spoiled by the costumes. I’m on the fence about this.
- Some people would rather see special renders than costume spoilers Hell no! Who cares about those! You get to see those once, in the pack quest and that’s it! It says nothing about the story!!!
- The majority want previews of girls rather guys. Good! If it was the opposite, then that would have worried me.
- They would rather have previews of Side Girls than Main girls… Interesting I’m not opposed to see more Quinn, Camilla, Lily, Zoey and Envy. But I would like a Maya and Josy preview first.
- They would prefer to see Lewd and story scenes rather than Environement. I’m OK with that.

The poll will last two weeks, we’ll see how it goes.

 

[NebulousShooter]

Why the fuck would you want to see special renders, or lewd vs story previews? Every time I try to give the patreons the benefit of the doubt I am reminded that they are drooling morons

 

[lipe2410]

They would rather have previews of Side Girls than Main girls

I'm not against of a Nicole's preview in MC's room

 

[Marley300]

Why the fuck would you want to see special renders, or lewd vs story previews? Every time I try to give the patreons the benefit of the doubt I am reminded that they are drooling morons

I guess they just really don’t want to see any costumes spoilers and picking special renders is better than nothing…
By the way my mistake ! Custom renders are from the pack quest. Special renders are just like the Josy special render set that we already got.

Where's the option for just previews of that goth looking girl.

 

[dalli_x]

In principle, DPC can do almost anything he wants with an undercover Lily. Let's be surprised.

"(4) An undercover operation initially authorized by the SAC must be reauthorized by a designated Assistant Director, pursuant to paragraphs IV.C-F, if it lasts longer than 12 months or involves the expenditure of more than $40,000 ($100,000 in drug cases of which a maximum of $40,000 is for operational expenses), or such other amount that is set from time to time by the Director. No undercover operation approved at the field office level may continue for more than one year without obtaining approval at FBIHQ."

FBI Special Agent Garcia's longest undercover assignment, was 24 years long, with just 26 years of service. That's reality.

Fuck!!! My own post gets me thinking and fantasizing.

What if Lana and/or James and/or Lynette are not dead or missing, but are working undercover themselves, on a long standing mission. Their deaths could be faked to protect loved ones and they have a new legend.

Or the MC is the target of such an undercover mission because his maternal family is a mafia family and the UC agents want to get to the grandfather through the MC.

But it could also be that there is a person (Lucas) among the preps that the UC agents want to get to. Lucas is a little strange. It is written somewhere so that when Preps Hell Week is over, wants to show his true colors.

Awesome. This has so much potential for its own story. But DPC should call it Jack Rayn.

 

[Ilhares]

is there a solo josy route?

No, there is not. If you actively pay more attention to Josy than Maya in the relationship, however, you will find some scene differences where Maya isn't as involved or open as she would otherwise be. It does seem to be a setup for potential future fracturing of the J&M bond, so the MC might be there to pick up the pieces (and select one of them over the other). Then again, maybe that will happen if you're involved with them or not. It remains to be seen.

Matrix for example. For me a masterpiece. The trilogy ends with drama and a happy ending. Although the films belong to the sifi genre, they contain analogies to the real world and its problems. Simply fantastic.

The ending of the trilogy was atrocious. Parts 2 & 3 were almost entirely garbage, but this was expected, as the brothers had to strongly pivot away from the source material they stole the core story from (Jack Chalker's Wonderland Gambit trilogy) to avoid getting their asses sued off. Which is really a shame, because Chalker pulled off an excellent series that still left you with a big question mark / smirking grin at the end the whole affair.

Instead they gave us a really shitty Jesus story, and didn't bother to dig even deeper to show the may layers.

View attachment 1833892 Ivar is kinda off looks like our MC lol

And like the MC is frequently just the stupidest cunt imaginable. But at least the MC isn't (usually) an overly violent one with small dick energy.

I think I require clinical intervention, WHY do I find thick dark eyebrows girls so hot?

I don't like them when it's women who have obviously bleached their hair. If you wanne look blonde, commit to it! I'm less bothered by Zoey, who has clearly just added color to her hair that everybody knows is an unnatural shade. (like Sage's hair in the flashbacks)

And her drug behaviour whether she is undercover or not, doesn't make sense for a healthcare person.

A friendly reminder that Tera Patrick worked in the porn industry, and while doing so also studied and eventually earned an A.A.S. degree in nursing and a B.S. in Biology, with a focus on infectious disease.

Lily could be completely full of shit about her plans, it's all part of the cover. Or doing personal first-hand research on the effects of certain substances on herself.

You know the saying, man. Never trust a skinny chef.

I'm sorry, my vote is no spoilers, there are enough spoilers on patreon so that chapter 9 arrives later and knows all the details ... it's like watching a movie that you've already seen in the cinema and on top of that you have to pay for it .. .XD
We should not talk here about chapter 9 either, rather out of respect for other people, especially steam people.
