26 + the 11 from the steam announcement lol


I'm going with March honestly, I doubt the beta will be faster than the last one.

And like Chalk said, it commercially more profitable for him. If Patreon still doesn't changed payment system to start counting month from date of your subscription.

Lmao DPC just inverted the colors on the dress Sally wore at the dorm party for this random chick in the Stephen flashback. Did he think no one would notice? Or maybe I'm supposed to wonder if that's Sally Sr.

One of Dalli theories states that Josy's mom Iris

This week, I started by playing Others' and Isabella's branches. I feel very good about how the different playthroughs of the episode feel.

I've also played with a focus on mini-games and balancing the party planning mini-game. Then, I focused on replaying all the lewd scenes; although three scenes were missing animations, I could polish most of the content.

I checked that the Music app is updated with all new songs and works as intended. I also added a couple more SFX that I had missed. I continued working on Phone chats and Rooster, adding more chats, clucks, and gallery images. I believe I'm done with the phone content now.

I'm analyzing the code, flow, and choices right now. This allows me to spot well-hidden errors and oddities I have yet to encounter while playing. I've found several rare bugs resulting from nested choices and exceptions. This information also tells me which playthrough I need to test more thoroughly.

The episode is getting increasingly polished, and my lists of issues to fix between playthroughs are often very short.

The PCs are rendering nonstop, and over the last couple of weeks, I've tried to estimate their render speed and calculate how much more time is needed before they are done. It's tricky because each animation differs in speed, and I'm seeing a spread of up to 100% render time with some animations. Assuming the average render speed stays the same, the PCs should be done with the animation queue on February 7-9 at the latest. If I see that the speed changes, for the better or worse, I'll let you know.

Beta testing will commence as soon as possible after the final animation is complete. I will provide more information about that later. Next week, I will continue polishing and playing; it is the only task left on my checklist for this episode.

The final preview of episode 11 will be released sometime later this month. I think it's safe to say it's a preview you don't want to miss.

Have a nice weekend

Dr PinkCake

All most there at last

 

[pupitti]

and with that we can confirm 26 previews as the final number for Episode 11.

Episode 10 still holds the preview record of 30.

I mean, if you count the Steam previews individually there would be 37, plus the Gog store 38, and with one to come 39

Beta testing always lasts a minimum of two weeks, so February 28th seems to be the earliest possible date of release. Given that DPC has enough time to do a very thorough playtesting run right now, I hope it doesn’t exceed this time frame by much. The previous release underwent three weeks of beta testing due to a high number of reported errors, so hopefully, this won’t be the case for this episode.

 

[katzenstreu]

F sake year and half for update + AAA game dont take so much and dont cost such money XD[he shuld pause patreon until update ]

triple A games have a full staffed studio, a budget limit and deadlines.
we have here a single person who is doing everything on his own and nobody is forced to give him a fucking penny.
im glad that people give him cash, because otherwise there wouldnt be a game at all.

 

[ChipLecsap]

can't wait for the "French fries. Pizza. French fries." scene with MC that he is been rendering for a half a year

 

[iamcomming]

You know, her and Sally could be sisters or cousins. Maybe if you have sex with Sally, it will lockout YG.

Sally and Yoga Girl 3some adding to wanted 3somes list

3 Madam scene, huh? MGs has only 2. Madam is the true MG.

last beta took just a week.

Last beta for EP10 started between 13th or 15th November 2023, that is what he wrote in his last status update on 17th November 2023. Episode 10 was releases on 8th December 2023.
That's 23-25 days. A week should be 7 days AFAIK. I'm not a Nobel Prize in Mathematics but I think 23 days is more than three weeks. 7x3=21 AND 23>21 (correct me if I'm wrong). So BETA testing for Episode 10 took actually more than 3 weeks, not "just a week".
Please notice that, also according to ChatGPT, 3 = 1 + 1 + 1.

Not that i'm expecting it to happen, February is technically still possible. I vaguely recall DPC had previously mentioned that beta cycles take about 2 weeks. If the animation is on track for Feb 7, and beta starts right away as DPC said so we add 2 weeks to that, we are at Fri Feb 21. And if animation goes a little beyond Feb 7, there's still Fri Feb 28.

Bur realistically speaking, you just might be right.

This episode recycles old mini games but has more complicated free roams and it's fair to expect EP 11 to take around the same time of Beta testing. Two weeks could be possible if the most problems of EP 10 were the new mini games, of course. Free roams are not that complicated in the code itself, but continuity bugs can surface.

 

[hydra1991]

So,how many girls could MC fuck in ep11?

 

[St. Nix]

Damn, I really hope episode 11 will drop while it still snowing outside.

 

[Lagunavii]

I also bet on 14 February. I think DPC is trying to create an illusion of overdelivering.
Everyone will expecting a release on February 21st or 28th. But he will release it on the 14th.

No chance, if the animations don't finish till the 10/02, Beta testers are not getting it till the 11/02. Two weeks minimum testing puts us to 25/02....

Any kind of Feb release has now sailed.

 

[KАRАMBA]

A February release is nothing short delusional now.

It's so touching.
Therefore, let's add a little kindness to the thread.

3 Madam scene, huh? MGs has only 2. Madam is the true MG.

Actually if you think about it, Madame only has one scene in the entire game. You just unlock more content for it.

But which character has the most actual content? Sage had two scenes in ep 10 but Bella's one scene is at least twice the content of those scenes put together. So in terms of renders and animations rather than scenes, who gets the most attention from DPC?

ElectronicRoberts is your guy, see this post he made a while in the back.
I also remember someone analysed the lines of dialogue for each character since EP1, and there was a table with statistics. I don't remember if it was ElectronicRobers again.

I need more quinn scenes when epsiode 11 drops im feining
