Status update Episode 5
🕑 Added 2020-05-22 09:47:39 +0000 UTC
Beta testing is on-going.
A release date will be posted when I know more about the workload needed to fix bugs etc.
If you haven't prepared for patching your game, I strongly advise you to do it soon, to make release day easier for you.
Download the full game here if you need it.
Please note, modified game versions or even extracted ones won't work with patching. You will get errors when playing the game if there's anything in the folders that's not supposed to be there.
You can fix it by downloading a clean release before patching or by downloading the full game on release.
Soon.

Jdog

What about the three day after people?
DrPinkCake
Pledge $25 and you can get the update.
How do you apply the patch?
Kim Jong-un
I am full of anticipation
Danis Marandis
Steam files are not compatible with the version here.
Yea affinity bro, remembered i posted the same thing lol. I went back and got it.
Serj
I have the steam version of the game. Once this patch comes out, will it be compatible with steam version or do I have to download the full game from here?
Ardor
I believe you need CHICK AFFINITY for that. Check your affinity rating.

I found a possible bug, in Episode 4, the shower scene with Jill, I have 6 CHICK rating but the scene won’t unlock. I’m pretty sure I’ve hit the other markers
Jason
There should be more than ample instructions when it's released.
is there any way we can get a more in depth explanation on how to apply the patch upon release? the way its described below isn't helping my technologically stupid self out too much lol
Ardor
I believe he does those a bit later. Might be a while.
Flover
Definitely download

DrPinkcake Congrats on 6.000 Patreons
Courun
Any chance to get an official episode 5 walkthrought after release?
Nick Andreas
Aww man, thanks though.
Nobuddy
No, steam saves are not compatible with Patreon saves
Nick Andreas
Can I transfer my saves from Steam to the Patreon version?
DrPinkCake
I made a public post about this a while back. It would be harder to maintain a game that way since Steam is handled differently. Steam is handled like the patching I will do for Patreon. It makes it easier to do versioning this way and it's even faster for players to download only patches than entire games every update.

He'll have an upgrade patch - he's just stating that you need to have a clean, unmodified existing installation before attempting to install the 0.5 patch when it releases. If you have tweaked any files in your installation for mods, hacks, etc. it's recommended to do a clean installation before attempting the patch when it releases.
Nah, I just remember that there was a wall of text after episode 4 where DPC said that season 2 will come with new binary which means new folder with an executable. But there is no such text in 0.4.2. I guess it was in 0.4.0 version and things changed after that
Flover
......or do you mean the patch thing for episode 5? I imagine you just get the additional data for the episode as a patch, nothing else. You cannot play episode 5 on its own.
Flover
What do you mean standalone executable? It is one big game. The "seasons" are just milestones in the development.
He made a response to a similar question like this, its at the top of the comments tho
Didn't you mention earlier that Season 2 will get standalone executable? If it's true why do we need previous clean version?
Like it!
Jason
@DrPinkCake Any general sense of bug count/severity yet?
Hi, what did you mean with "... clean release before patching ..." ? I've downloaded V0.4.2 on 1. March 2020 and played the Game. Btw can't wait for it!
Ted Harris
Really looking forward to next episode, please hurry!\
DrPinkCake
No, Steam gets full seasons. It will be a while before Steam gets a product update.
BoxerB
I bought it on Steam. Will it be released same day there through patching?
With 8 playthroughs to continue, you'll be busy dude.
Alonso Gomez
Can't wait!!

Hi, check my tiers and decide what level you want to be at. To get Episode 5 on release day, $25, three days after release $10 and 2 weeks after release $5 (this requires you to already have the base patreon version in the $10 tier).
Ardor
Sweet! Looking forward to the release. Hopefully it won't take long to fix whatever bugs pop up. This week it would have been the ideal distraction to what I may face next week at work, but it is what it is. Just a little longer and hopefully some of the questions I've been having will be answered. If it answers at least one, then that would be awesome. But I'm really looking forward to it regardless!
If I only have Season 1 on Steam, how can I get Episode 5? (sorry for not knowing, I'm new here, playing your brilliant work on steam bring me here)

https://www.patreon.com/posts/34191391 This post already shows how to do it. There will be instructions in the update post as well as in the patch zip file.
Will you release a guide on how to patch ?

HYPE!
Mr C
Man...I hope it comes out in the next 7 days since I’m off! Can’t wait!!
Messè
The hype is real xD. Thanks as always, DPC!
MedicBear
Hey Pink, just wanted to say thank you for your hard work! I look forward to seeing the fruits of your labour, remember to take a break after release to recharge your batteries!
The virtual universe awaits the creator of all things.
DrPinkCake
You can keep saves, as long as they are from the Patreon version.
Does that mean we can't keep the previous saves ?
J
Can’t wait for the release ~ 💪🏻 Stay Safe ! DPC
