What will be the October 7th release excuse?
You've hit head on there everyone has had their problems including dev's just to think of the other VN's that have released or going to release soon roughly had the same timeframe as the last big WVM update. Just think of what drifty went through he managed to complete his game then start the next one. The sad fact is every time there is a delay announced here it's always just before the patron renewal date. I used to subscribe to BD but the constant let downs with excuses that get less believable each time we all wouldn't have jobs if we used them in workThe thing that irks me the most about all this is the fact that BD calls these 300 ish updates episodes. Just NO!
When Dr Pink Cake (Being a Dik) releases a update, that's a episode.
When Timepants (Exiles) releases an update, that's a episode.
When Mad King Games (VIS) releases an update, that's a episode!
What BD releases are clips at best! And for the amount of time he's had its pathetic.
There always seems to be an issue of some kind that prevents him from either releasing something on time, or meaningful.
What I hoped was a bump in the road seems to have become the norm for him. And I'm not saying that all the seemingly bad luck that throws itself at him is fake, but c'mon, there has to be a limit.
Anyway rant over. Just sad to see what was once my all time favourite dev drop the ball so hard. Don't know if its because of laziness or something else, but BD no longer has the drive that made him a rising star.

I agree with Being a Dik.When Dr Pink Cake (Being a Dik) releases a update, that's a episode.

Here are my guesses for this months excuse.Okay, taking bets....

Thing with Timepants is that when he releases an update (apparently looking for testers soon) at least we know it'll be more than 300ish chapters after 16 months and more than likely worth the wait.I agree with Being a Dik.
Well..um..its been 16 months and counting for Exiles. So its more like "If Timepants releases an update".
I just played the recent update of Vis. If that was an episode than Braindrop is releasing episodes as well considering how short it was.
You do realise though that it's the beginning of the month and subscriber numbers on Patreon are always on a downward spiral during those periods? If unsure about the date, please check a calendar.well some supporters didn´t like it it seems he lost from yesterday when was billing time to today 100 pantreons.
this guys or the guy or whatever really never learns with this timeline setting.
i didn´t know that illness can be cured at a specific time frame lol
that was already yesterday AFTER the usually loss of the supporters at the beginning of the month the numbers dropped from 3200 to 2924 pantrons.You do realise though that it's the beginning of the month and subscriber numbers on Patreon are always on a downward spiral during those periods?

The first was a Saturday. The announcement about the possible delay came on the 30th on Discord. I guess people REALLY had to stomach the shock before they were able to react two days later...that was already yesterday AFTER the usually loss of the supporters at the beginning of the month the numbers dropped from 3200 to 2924 pantrons.
and the posting at pantreon for the updatedelay was still not there.
after that annoncement 10 hours ago IT WAS ALREADY THE 2ND of october and the billing cycle is the 1st of october even in other timezones, it was already past the billing cycle of 1st october. it dropped again to 2822 many hours later after the billing cycle to where it is now.
the annoncement was many hours AFTER the last billing cycle rings a bell now ????
how about you check a calendar![]()
there seems to be a reason why the pantreon posts are one to two days late every time think about it.The first was a Saturday. The announcement about the possible delay came on the 30th on Discord. I guess people REALLY had to stomach the shock before they were able to react two days later...

Hello everyone.
We are sorry to announce that the update will be moved back to October 7th.
We announced on discord yesterday that Braindrop and his household are currently sick and all have fevers. They went to their doctor and everything will be okay but Braindrop has told me that he and his family were feeling worse today and that he wasn't able to get much work done due to caring for his family while trying to rest himself. They started feeling ill on Wednesday and they believe that they'll start feeling better soon.
There isn't much left to finish for the update but due to the circumstances I really do not want to push Braindrop to finish everything right now. He was very adamant about pushing through as soon as he possibly could and I convinced him to rest and we'll simply reload ourselves and be ready to continue when everyone is healthy.
He said that he doesn't want to just say "It'll be out soon" since he doesn't want people to check and get disappointed every day that it isn't out.
The latest date I could get him to agree to was the 7th.
We are very bummed about having to delay. This obviously isn't how we envisioned things going up to this point but we can not control when and if we get sick.
We're striving to achieve something maintainable and working through a bad illness, especially with a baby, is not a step in that direction.
We have already talked and planned how we'll try and avoid these interruptions going forward. I'd like to reiterate that we didn't flip a magical switch and suddenly turn perfect. There are many bad development habits that we are working on fixing, such as the constant edits up until the release day. But, we're working ourselves through a weird batch of content at the moment due to this past year and we believe things won't be as touchy when we're past a certain point.
I do hope you are understanding of the situation. We're not happy with the situation but we are overall feeling positive about the progress being made behind the scenes.
We plan to release at 5pm EST on Friday, October 7th.
I'll have news about when to expect Episode 4 as well as an update on the Season 1 redo in the next Mind Drop on October 12th.
Thanks guys. We'll see you on the 7th.
Take care.

BDs made well over $150k this year alone and all we've seen is some DILDO and like 500 renders. Wish I could slack off at work while making close to a 1/4 a million dollars![]()
What it definitely shows though is that BD actually gained Patrons.Except, you're required to pay self employment taxes if you work for yourself. Better keep all your receipts.
No it doesn't. Patrons are down 14% since the start of the year. Why the earnings and per-patron estimates have gone up I have no idea.What it definitely shows though is that BD actually gained Patrons.![]()
