VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.11.1] [DrPinkCake]

[travelman]

Wait, he's not a doctor that makes pink cakes?!

 

[ZenoMod]

Ahaha. Hahahaha.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

ahhhh...

Well... until his subscribers on Patreon are ok with paying his bills in exchange of one chapter every 12+ months... He would be silly not to allow himself all the time they are allowing him to take...

They're not really unimportant, you might not be able to see them, but getting them or not will determine certain things you can and can't do in the game.

must to be through the points?
cant it be through the consequences of decisions?

It's really crazy to think about it, if this game goes to 16 episodes, at this pace, it will end in 2029/30. It's more than 10 years, a time span of 3 World Cups!!!

 

[19Castiel23]

If Dr. PinkCake continues to release new episodes at this rate, we could see Episode 16 in 2040.

Given how long some triple-A games spend in development by major studios with dozens or even hundreds of people employed, a single guy creating 16 episodes of this length and quality in 10 years is rather impressive. For all gamers' complaints about "milking" and deliberately slow AVN developers, creating these stories really is an enormously labor-intensive process.

Going by the Swedish text left as an easter egg on t-shirts in the game, the Swedish surnames that some of the characters have, his country's timezone considering when he usually uploads and the Swedish instrument brand name that he put on MC's guitar model that didn't have it by default, he's probably Swedish. There have also been theories about him being German but his wife being Swedish, so there's that as well which would make sense as the game also has a fair amount of German influence (e.g. "Burgmeister") although not as much as Swedish. I've come across people on Reddit saying that his real name is 'Colle', which he apparently revealed on his Discord, but I have no proof of this other than the comments in the subreddit themselves.

gimme the reddit comment I'll do the digging

 

[Ir0n Ma1den]

Can't believe it will soon be a year since the old update, and 2 years since the helloween party update.

 

[BigSexy57]

I was not following the progress of this game developement, because there was nothing to follow. So, could you please tell me why this abandoned game still does not have abandoned tag, huh?

 

[Mordreut]

Very likely, considering he will probably substitute all the static rendering with a game-long fully animated experience at 1920 fps in 256k resolution...

By then 20% of the storage of the world cloud servers will be used just to store BaD Season 1 remastered


(...and don't we forget the coding effort to implement always new minigames... I want 60fps animation for the fish in the tank too!!! )

DPC's descendants bought Mars so it can be used as cloud server with the money they won with Patreon during 70+ years

If I remember right, the abandoned tag is applied after 18 months without new releases

Here's one mentioning it. I've only seen one other comment about it in another thread, which is strange if he's actually revealed his name on the Discord since I'm assuming it has at least thousands of members in it.

 

[Bazsa4]

Naaa... He pauses the development of the finale to start the remastering of season 1 to update it to new technologies...

 

[The Krogan Dude]

My prediction is that after the "final" episode of the last season, there will be a few more DLC updates to give space for secondary girls. Like a specific and long ending for Zoe/Lily/Nicole for example (I suppose Quinn will be covered as a main girl). It would be too much of a temptation not to milk more this great VN, I would not blame him if he does that and actually I really would like to see various endings, because the main girls are not really interesting as characters for me. While I would be really curious to see DLCs with a specific ending for each of Camila, Sarah, Cathy, Jade, Nora.

DLC, remaster and polishing. The three forbidden words with AVNs still in development.

 

[Better Cock Spock]

Don't think so but I could be wrong need to ask the president simp here. Better Cock Spock did Bella remove her ring during other path?

On Halloween, Jill and Bella have mutually exclusive scenes. When you're out on the balcony on the Jill path, Bella is clearly NOT wearing her ring.

However, you could attribute that to her leaving it behind so people wouldn't realize she isn't a student. And I suppose that technically you could've dumped Bella for Jill, which could also play a personal factor. That being said, there's a number of times in public when she does not wear it, but those are all canon scenes—yoga class, for example.


Of course, at the end of Episode 7, Bella will take her ring off only if you're on her path. But that just means she won't wear it in private with MC (most of the time).

We knew you'd know, but giving us the code is on another level.

Even when its completed imo, just let it stand as a testament of the devs progressing skills and up to the next avn. Remastering is a endless cycle anyway as long as the devs skills progress (or better tools get available).

 

[Bazsa4]

next avn

This is his last work, most likely. He said it in a Q&A.

I was more talking in general but i doubt this even when he said that lol, he strikes me as a workaholic who gets satisfaction from creating stuff, he would miss it soon after he stops

When did DPC's Patreon income start growing properly?

I found a reddit post from November 2021 by a Swedish guy whose gaming hobby started to bring him so much income that he sought advice on what he had to do to keep the Swedish tax office happy. When asked what game it was, he just mentioned that it was a somewhat dirty game...
