Should be noted it currently has ZERO seeds. I would, but I can't download it and 18+ GB are too massive for anything else. I can't be the only one in this situation, let's get some seeders out there eh?

This, thanks!

I just signed up for your Patreon because I believe you do fantastic work!

I think a search function would do wonders on your site.

There's a search at /games/ but it's not great, unfortunately there's only so much you can do with a static html site though.

I really appreciate his work and would love to support him on a monthly basis, but with the apartment loan still 2 years left to be paid off and the shop expenses really take the wind out of your sails, especially with the pandemic going on when the price of everything is going constantly up, I'm just not capable of fitting it in.

For example, the filters I used to buy for 15$ before the pandemic now cost 19$. Add in the hour I spend working on a car and the price for a single filter change goes up to 25$. I can't tax a customer 25$ for a filter change, as it's an outrageous price. So I tax it 20$, and a 1$ profit on a filter isn't all that much at the end of the month. People don't believe me when I say I barely turn a profit on a monthly basis after the pandemic, because they keep thinking that the prices remained the same for me as well.

Very true as well, a dollar just doesn't go as far as it once did.

2 years spending 200 dollars at the grocery story is enough food for weeks, now maybe a week at most.

Holy shit! Saving the image so I can study it.

I 'm a no mod guy, and I thought you were considering a full PT for Rio. Obviously, the flow chart hasn't been updated after ep5. BTW Casiope's walkthru is a very nice resource, and I think it's still available on a pg1 link.
My big hope for Riona is getting her to cum from banging the MC in future episodes.

I think that for Riona "cums" she needs to be connected on an emotional level with the MC

Will there be an achievement for the Steam version if Rio is able to orgasm through sex?

 

[Cabin Fever]

Will there be an achievement for the Steam version if Rio is able to orgasm through sex?

Maybe it can be called "Diving into the onsen"

It will be something like this

I am considering a full Rio run. I don't use mods in this game. They've fucked me up before.

Unfortunately, what you get here is not compatible with Steam, it is only compatible with the Patreon and GOG version

This week I've been working on several different areas of the game, including renders, animations, and GUI/main menu updates.

I'm almost finished with the writing, I have a couple of more scenes left to write, and several coding tasks remain.

I believe I'm more than halfway done with static renders. I don't know how many animations I want yet.

Don't forget to submit questions for the Q&A event. It will be at least another year until you'll have this opportunity again. Ask your questions about the game and game development

Criminy, we're two months into work on the Interlude and we're only now getting our second meaningful status update... if you can even call it that. DPC is more than half done with the static renders. We have no word on the animations (other than saying he was working on some very long ones previously). The writing and coding are still in progress too. We know he was aiming for 40-60 minutes of gameplay (with an absurdly high new song count), so presumably that still stands. And Zoey will definitely be in it. Did I leave anything out?

That's not not even enough to work with tentatively, but at this point I'm willing to speculate wildly purely out of spite. If we use Episode 1 as our baseline and assume DPC is ~60% done with static renders, that suggests he's completed something like 780 statics. If we further assume he took a week off after release, another week off for Christmas, and spent last week dealing with the GOG launch, that means he's had about 5 working weeks so far. That would give him a hypothetical average of ~156 statics per working week.

Since we're already visiting the Neighborhood of Make Believe, we might as well look at the animations, too. DPC averaged a little under 12 animations per week during Episode 8. Since we know he was trying some longer animations, let's cut that to 10 for now. For simplicity, we'll say he cranks out animations on the same work schedule as renders. That would give him an extremely imprecise 50 animations completed, which coincidentally is roughly on par with Episode 1.

Here's the chart version, for folks who prefer visual special effects.

Spoiler: Completely Imaginary Charts!

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

If you fall for those charts, DPC is pondering whether to add more animations, and will probably complete the static renders by mid-February. Reality is probably heavier on the animations than our Episode 1 benchmark suggests, but either way mid-February is probably as good an estimate as any for our navel gazing. If we assume 2 weeks for testing (probably less for the Interlude's gameplay but more for the save transfer), we'd get an early March release.

We can probably shave a week or two off that if we want to be optimistic; assume the animations are nearly done, so DPC will kick up the static posing rate once the writing is finished. If we feel like being pessimistic instead, we can assume DPC has barely started the animations. In that case early April is probably the uppermost plausible limit.

In any case, the timing is less important to me than the more basic questions about why we're getting the Interlude in the first place. I'm still waiting for DPC to explain to me why I should give a rat's ass about this particular side project. I don't care how many pictures of Zoey he posts, she's an unknown right now. I'm not going to get excited simply at the opportunity to get excited in a couple months.

There's got to be something he could tell us about the Interlude that would be legitimately interesting. I wish he would. My enthusiasm is low and I would like something to look forward to while I wait. Is that so much to ask for?

You are not enticed by the idea of Zoey and her fine as fuck tattoo artist getting it on? Nor the potential threesome with the MC included.

Shame dude, I'm hyped up bro.

Indeed. Now granted I haven't searched that much for info on the Interlude but I have seen people say that MC won't be in it that much if at all. I know DPC is unfortunately including a lot of useless SFW animations of Zoey skateboarding or whatever, but if MC isn't featured then what are all the NSFW animations going to be? Zoey sucking off another homeless dude? Zoey scissoring some unknown twat she encounters at the shelter? Zoey boxing her own bean while thinking of Neil? WTF? This whole Interlude is nothing but a waste.

So I guess we will get a Halloween party episode on Halloween after all...just 2022 not 2021. So yahhh for that...I guess?
An entire year between ep. 8 and ep. 9 all because of this vagrant side character.

I'm all for Zoey getting gangbanged by a group of Samoan surfers all with bigger dicks than the MC.

Did DPC say the MC will be largely absent?

Now you bring it up... I can't see how he can do anything NSFW that isn't her being bisexual or somehow with the MC. Maybe the ret-con about when the MC and her were together was done to shore up this interlude. The random scene buried in an episode flew under the radar for potentially being between two underaged kids. Doubt he could sneak an entire interlude through without them explicitly being 18.

Maybe this interlude will include some of the time with the MC before she left? I highly doubt he'd show Zoey with another guy.

She can fuck the dog from the S1 train scene for all I care. I just want to get back to ep. 9.

No, I haven't seen DPC say it, so I'm just going by what others have said on the thread. I certainly would appreciate some clarity from the big guy about the Interlude though. What is the premise? Does it take place in san Diego or at B&R or both? Will MC be involved at all? Need to know these things. If I wanted to see random people fucking, I'd just watch porn. Tattoo girl and her cuckboy next to her mean absolutely nothing to me. Who are these knobheads and why do we care about them?

 

[notmm27]

quick question, i've played this game before and used a cheat to just see the gallery. but now i want to play it proper from the beginning. so, do i have to clear out the previous save file or can i just play a new save? i dont want to risk a problem down the line because of it

 

[Mr Viper]

Quick question, how many episodes will Interlude be?

DPC hasn't said anything about the Interlude beyond it being fun for the whole playerbase... much to my annoyance. But the first Zoey preview was before she got her tattoos, so it's likely at least a little of it will be before she leaves. That could include a roll in the hay or two with the young MC.

I don't see how it could take place at current B&R, though. Even if we skip ahead past the meeting with the Burkes, how far can we go into that flashforward before snapping back to the "present" becomes impractical? I don't think it's far enough to be worth it unless there's much more to do than catch up with Zoey. But I very much doubt this would include a lewd scene no matter what happens; it would either make the crossroads a laughingstock or require far too much branching to fit into Interlude frame.

Of course it's possible Zoey could have a lewd scene with the new boyfriend in San Diego. Yes, it's a tinderbox of you-know-what waiting to detonate, but if we're in control of Zoey at the time it might not be quite as bad as normal. I doubt DPC would do it, but it would at least be something unexpected.

 

[Maevos]

Quick question, how many episodes will Interlude be?

Just one, hopefully, to reintroduce Zoey into the game. There may be a riot on the streets if DPC wastes his time on additional interludes.
