who cares about seasn 1 reworl,....by now he knows he cant do it ,and we know this will end in his constant loop ,we need tobe happy with him releasing something before the end of the year,.......
I was mainly asking as a form of confirmation that he never did post the plan for the S1 remake. That's even ignoring he had it slated for early 2023 in the first place, but that is neither here nor there.

Dev Report #25 (October 14th, 2023)

Yo!

So, not going to waste any time.
The update will not be today and as a result, I will be pausing pledges for November.
Let's talk about when it will be released.

So, I bit off more than I could chew. This update has expanded to a point where I've fallen into some old issues and I'm struggling with finalizing it. Namely with making the scenes flow into each other.
So, as I have no interest in falling back into the headspace I was in half a year ago... I'm going to do the same thing I did to get out of my situation back then before I'm actually there.
I'm splitting this update into two parts to help make it easier for me to finalize mentally. One 400 render update to be released on the 19th. And one 300 render update to be released on the 24th. And then episode 13 will be released on the 31st. Each of these releases will be tiered by an hour. (So it unlocks for a lower tier every hour instead of the usual 24 hours)
I do deeply apologize for taking this much time and failing my goal. I take full responsibility for the lack of updates recently as it has been a result of poor planning and execution on my end.

I do plan on achieving the remainder of the goals I set for October.

With that said... it brings me to something I've wanted to speak on for a few weeks now. It doesn't take a mathematician to realize that the 52/52 isn't going to plan. So I want to talk about it.
The 52/52 started as a way to help relieve me of my release anxiety and to get content out in a consistent way. I set the goal of 100 renders a week and I had the mindset of pretty much just releasing whatever I was able to make in a week.
Well, the issue with that has been the releasing whatever I've made. I've really struggled with releasing something just to release it. I feel shitty putting something out that I don't feel is worth downloading and playing yet. I tried to solve one issue by drastically going in the opposite direction.
Which is why I took extra time on almost all of the releases so far. I wanted the scene with Bailey and Rainn to be played all at once, I was having fun with the Skye scene and wanted to expand it, I wanted to have all of the traveling to Florida at once.
Essentially I just want to put out a fun experience and I know most of you guys would have fun even if those were all segmented throughout weeks but there's just something about it that has irked me that I thought wouldn't.
It's just time for me to accept that this isn't the answer to my issue.
So... something has to change but I don't want anything drastic. I know I struggle with larger releases so I'm really not interested in going back to that. I feel like the easiest compromise is just to release scenes as they are completed. I categorize scenes essentially as events. So for instance the events listed in the image would all count as a scene.
Sometimes scenes will be shorter though I don't think I'd bother releasing anything under 100 renders, sometimes they'll be in the 250-ish range.
I feel this is the easiest way to fix my current issue. The main goal is still 100 renders a week and to release the equivalent of that in whatever time allotment I have to finish a scene.

But yeah, that's all I have to share for the moment. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
As always, thank you all so much for everything and please take care.
Spread some love and have a wonderful week everyone!
Really? Basic math would suggest you're wrong. The game was last updated 1st of February and 6 months ago was 20th of January. So you're saying the update was supposed to be ready BEFORE the last update?
Sorry to burst your bubble, but you're wrong. He had goals of ep 13 being out October 31 2023. He obviously missed that. So yes, the update was supposed to be ready before the last update.

July 20 has come, here's a Happy Birthday to Valerie!
View attachment 3848373 View attachment 3848374
Valerie has my ideal body type. 34A-24-34. I love them tall, skinny-ish and with small boobs. I was excited when I first saw this birthday sheet, but little did I know that it would take eleventy years to get to see what she can do with it. Bummer. You see, the thing about tall, slim girls is that they have curves, but they have to be in certain positions and you have to be looking at them from a certain perspective to see them. So it's like a gift that only you get, that no other man gets to see. There's something about that that makes me harder than Chinese common core. Don't know why that is. Not the strangest fetish though by any means.

Maybe we could ask McKenzie for a progress update. She would never lie to us. Plus it was here job to keep him on task and communicate with us so braindop could focus on work. So the way I see it this is all her fault.
McKenzie had to fly home 2 weeks in after taking the job for family emergency and couldn't manage to log in discord from her phone so her reports never came... BD actually said this or something similar, then we never heard from her again :LOL: :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

And Mommysbuttslut why would you ignore goop? guys like him keep this thread going, it's half of the fun (y)

I woke up one morning to like 3 new pages of mostly Jade Vagina Egg arguing and his shit was only fun for about one of those. White knights are fun to rile up but half of the enjoyment comes from ignoring them so once they're at peak delirium they're stuck screaming into the abyss while everyone else ignores them.

Has anyone ever explained the Tier system?
If I remember it's Tier F is family. So the unfuckables. Tier 1 is primary girlfriends, so Shauna and Cuckie. Tier 2 is avoidable girlfriends who are central to the cast so like Bailey and Zoe, girls who are going to be prominent whether you're on their route or not. Tier 3 is where I'm not sure if I'm remembering right. I think it's the fuckables who aren't really central to MC's circle, so side girls. I think the rainbow squad is in tier 3. Can't remember if there's a tier 4.

he has, yes

The "Tier" is what level of main or side character the girls are. (THIS IS AN ESTIMATE AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN TOO LITERALLY. It's ballpark stuff and hasn't been thought about that deeply, it's mainly just to give an idea.)
The scale goes from 0-5 (also an f for family since they're separate)
Jamie and Shauna being tier 0
main girls are tiers 1-3, the level mainly says how much focus they'll have.
Side girls are tiers 4-5.

Let me know if you need help moving those goalposts.
I didn't move any. You and I have different goal posts from one another to begin with.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but you're wrong. He had goals of ep 13 being out October 31 2023. He obviously missed that. So yes, the update was supposed to be ready before the last update.
Most of episode 13 is releaed already tho. B3 was released in February, B2 and B1 somewhere before that. Just because he didn't deliver on his promises (E.g. up to his own and your expectations) doesn't mean he didn't deliver anything. As I said earlier, if you ignore what he says this is a perfectly enjoyable VN. The expectations are the problem. Just going with the flow is much more enjoyable.

So you didn't burst any bubble. I don't have any delusions about him. Just a different perspective that results in me not malding about trivial things.

Wait, when I saw McKenzie mentioned I thought someone was jokingly referring to that character in the game (the one who handles his social media, friend of Kimmy, though I think her name was spelled different?) but this make it sound like thats an actual person? Did the dev hire a community liaison or something?
