Status update Episode 9
🕑 Added 2022-09-04 13:16:22 +0000 UTC
Here's an attempt at a status update to give you some stats as I wanted for Friday.
Work completed:
- 3652 renders (3569 produced and 83 in the render queue)
- 211 animations (201 animations produced, 10 in the render queue)
- 22 songs
Work that remains:
- 8 scenes left to write
- 50 scenes left to pose art for (~1000 more static renders)
- 3-4 lewd scenes to make animations for (<100 animations)
- Make some missing GUI for the new mini-game.
- Write some code needed for other mini-games.
- Add music (almost done)
- Add SFX (almost done)
- Rooster (90% done)
- Other phone content (Phone chats/Calls, Bios, Stats, Pack Quest, Vault)
- Collectibles (special renders/2D art/scenes) - Only testing remains
- Playtest and polish
- Verify bug fixes from the Interlude.
Overall completion:
My best shot at estimating a completion % right now is:
Static renders: 79%
Animations: 70% (based on animation count, not duration. The longest animations are almost done, so this number should increase faster from now on.)
Writing/Coding: 95%
Render and animation numbers are based on a target of ~4652 renders and 300 animations; subject to change if needed.
The writing/coding percentage is my gut feeling.
Further insight:
Lately, I've done most of Rooster, the main menu art, Jill's special render set, and placement of magazines/unlockables. These tasks require a lot from me, and I'm happy I'm close to done with all of them.
Long animations have been rendering for the last month, and I haven't been animating a lot which is why this count isn't much bigger than the last report I did.
The longest animation I've done to date has almost been completely rendered. It's currently 1 minute 16 seconds (2281 renders) long. It needs a few more hundreds of renders before PCs are freed up for other animations; this should happen before next Friday.
Threesome animations are still in the render queue and have been there for the last two months. They take a very long time to render but are worth it.
I will have a split focus on renders and animations in the upcoming weeks.
I hope you had a nice weekend! I'm still a bit tired, but I've rested and am fit to work again.
Thanks again for your amazing support. I couldn't ask for a better community.

You are the beast brooo!!!

We love you bro! Keep up the good work & know you have the full support of the community.
Beautiful Bro
The Maya and Josy path feels like the most natural one in a weird way. The Isabella path was the more compelling to me. The Jill path was the most romantic. I can't quite explain why Sage's path appeals to me so much but it does, all I can say is that I sense it will be very rewarding too. They're all so great in their own way. The only path that made me deeply uncomfortable was my full DIK playthrough where I chose nobody, that was... unpleasent.
Kernaul
I put myself in line. Acting Lessons introduced me to this kind of games an Being a Dik keeps me there. Tried some other AVNs but they don't have the Dr to make them great.

To each their own dude, I think Maya is one of the least! Josy having an anal scene would be epic as she and the MC seem to smash way more than MC & Maya. Hell, getting an anal scene with Isabella would be insane as her path was very rewarding! lol
Thomas J
Can't wait I have replayed S1 & S2 two more times to get other outcomes while waiting :) I will playthrough each S3 episode 3 times for each playthrough! I love this world you created DPC!
Steve
Good stuff. This is one of the best adult games/VN's out there. I'm hoping sincerely that you are finding a way (in the upcoming 0.9 release) to have Maya do her first anal scene. She's by far the hottest character/personality in the game - and her "exploring" her bisexuality further would also be super hot.

Looking Doc Keep ot Up.

Atta boy doc rest up bounce back we'll take care of the scum bags that mess with your creation.

Nice, so I am not the only one :o)

This release, while big, is smaller in download size. That should have a noticeable effect on the perceived chaos. Episode 8 release was a nightmare in terms of server load, I cannot argue that.
Snedden
Same.. never saw myself playing AVNs yet after acting lessons and BaD I've been hooked lol
Blackheart
A year ago, I'd never have guessed I'd play something like this. And here I am.. I miss my bros, friends, girls, humor, everything.
Jack Caswell
I know, there are likely reasons, but, as we get closer to release I wonder about what will happen with the release, the last few have been chaotic with everyone trying to download at the same time and wonder if creating a torrent would help alleviate issues without enabling pirates.

You have an amazing community because you engage with your community regularly and honestly. We couldn't ask for more.
Dave Davidson
Thank you for always keeping your subs up to date, something some other AVN devs need to learn.
Moobs048
your doin amazing work Doc. Keep it up. Glad to hear you have taken time to rest. Balance is important
Plebslayer
Firstly thank you for all your hard work! It seems you are spoiling us this episode with everything in it which I am sure no body has an issue with :D. I hope after this release you are able to take a well needed break.
Blacklabyrinth
Nice, it's getting closer and closer. Keep up the great work DPC.
Flover
First, thank you for the status update. Didn't expect it after what happened with that "game-stealing mongrel" . Second , I just stumbled upon this post by accident. No E-Mail arrived at my adress, was that intentional? Have a good night and a good week.
Simon08

Cptkm

Don't forget to give yourself breaks and time to rest.

This is just episode 9 actually. A full season 3 is a couple years out most likely
