The progress-% was LITERALLY JUST proved to be a joke (in case being nearly frozen for ages was not proof enough). It was taken back to 74% a month ago. But now it's 76%. No, nearly 77%! So guys, 23% / 2.75% = 8 months, 8.36 to be exact. Because NOW it's for real! NOW it's serious! This is the kind of guy DC works with.

No kidding - I've literally been tracking the "progress" reported on his website since the start of the Tech Update.
It started getting slower around the 20.14 "Pre-release" then almost completely plateaued after the 20.16 "Pre-release".... which was over a year ago now.

He's been earning over $70k per MONTH this entire time (before Patreon's cut ofc).
The lack of genuine transparency is ridiculous.

Looks like DC is already preparing the next batch of Cutscenes/Wallpapers:

I'm really looking forward to Ronda more and more.

I think she had more redesigns than any other characters (more than even Eve), and with each next instance looks better and better (that open hair look is so hot)
By the way in few of the recent news updates DC seems to stick to Rhonda name variant. Even on wiki she is now Rhonda Sinclaire.

I like how all the whiners are crying about how much money the team is making when their complaints would actually be a lot more understandable and relatable if they simply said I'm spending my entire 20's waiting for a pornographic game to develop.

I have a short list of various issues I have regarding the development of the game, but I couldn't care less about how much money they are making. They deserve every penny. EVERYONE wishes they would work faster, but it would come at the cost of quality which isn't an option.

You only need to skim over the last page or two to get an idea. You can also see this post: #73,923 which has the copy/paste of the November status report from the developer.

If you want, you can load the game now and run through the Cookie Jar to view the mammoth amount of characters and events with each to refresh your memory. I do it regularly. :p
