Status update Episode 9
🕑 Added 2022-10-07 13:33:42 +0000 UTC
This week I started off making animations and renders for a lewd scene. After that, I felt like playtesting Sage's branch while polishing everything I found along the way.
I created Pack quest for the episode, added all lewd scenes to the gallery, tested special renders, and fixed some code for it. I fixed a big chunk of the final free-roam event code and wrote a bit more dialogue. I added some more choices and a couple of new scenes and polished what I could spot.
I enjoyed playing Sage's branch, and I'm sure you will too. What struck me the most were the differences between Isabella's and Sage's branches, playing them back-to-back. All hard work is feeling worthwhile, and this episode is starting to come together.
Here are some stats on the current progress and what I have left to do:
Episode 9 current total:
- 4564 static renders (0 in the render queue)
- 260 animations (231 animations produced, 29 in the render queue)
- 25 new songs
- 8 new sound effects
- 18 2D-art pieces
- 5 2D-art animations
Work that remains:
- 2 scenes left to write
- 6 scenes left to make art for
- 3 lewd scenes to make animations for (50-80 animations)
- Make some missing GUI for the new mini-game.
- Add music (95% done)
- Add SFX (95% done)
- Special renders/2D art - Some testing remains
- Scenes gallery - Testing and a couple of thumbnails for the missing lewd scenes remain
- Playtest and polish (20%)
- "Previously on Being a DIK" section
- Ending screens for all branches
- Verify bug fixes from the Interlude.
Phone content:
- Rooster (90% done)
- Phone chats (90% done)
- Bios (0% done)
- Stats (Testing remains)
- Vault (Testing remains)
Overall completion:
Static renders: 95% (Based on a 4800 render target)
Animations: 76%-84% (Final animation count is still hard to estimate)
Writing/Coding: 95%
Further insight:
I am currently alternating between writing the final scenes, posing animations, and playtesting/polishing everything. As always, I aim to keep a 24/7 uptime on my render stations while multitasking the remaining areas.
Have a nice weekend

As a game dev I respect the hell out of the grind you put into each episode. It takes major effort to not burn out midway through. Keep going!
